On Wednesday, the Justice Department unsealed a civil complaint alleging that CVS Pharmacy Inc. and its subsidiaries filled “unlawful” prescriptions, violating the federal Controlled Substances Act and contributing to the opiate crisis that killed hundreds of thousands of Americans.
The complaint also accuses CVS of seeking reimbursement from federal healthcare programs for these illicit prescriptions, in violation of the False Claims Act.
The DOJ claims that since October 2013, CVS knowingly filled prescriptions for controlled substances that lacked a legitimate medical purpose, including “dispensing massive quantities of opioids”, early fills, and dangerous “trinity” prescriptions—combinations of opioids, benzodiazepines, and muscle relaxants. CVS is also accused of filling prescriptions from “pill mill” doctors—those who issue large volumes of prescriptions without medical justification.
Prosecutors assert that CVS ignored evidence from its own pharmacists including data that showed the unlawful prescriptions being filled at its stores. The government also points to staffing shortages that hindered pharmacists’ ability to properly verify prescriptions, accusing CVS’s corporate practices of prioritizing “profits over safety.” The DOJ argues that these actions played a role in fueling the opioid epidemic, which has led to a devastating number of overdose deaths across the nation.
The complaint states:
CVS’s actions contributed to the opioid crisis, a national public health emergencywith devastating effects in the United States.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
