Biden Cabinet Member’s Old Firm Scrambles to Evade Lawsuits
Pete Buttigieg’s old firm is scrambling to avoid lawsuits.
According to The Washington Free Beacon:
The controversial consulting firm where Pete Buttigieg worked after graduating from Oxford has agreed to pay $573 million as part of a multi-state legal settlement over its role advising major drug manufacturers during the opioid crisis.

Consulting giant McKinsey & Co. has reached a $573 million settlement with states over its work advising OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma LP and other drug manufacturers to aggressively market opioid painkillers, according to people familiar with the matter.
The deal, reached with 47 states and the District of Columbia and expected to be publicly announced Thursday, would avert civil lawsuits that attorneys general could bring against McKinsey, the people said. The majority of the money will be paid upfront, with the rest dispensed in four yearly payments starting in 2022.
Buttigieg was recently sworn in as secretary of transportation, becoming the second openly gay individual to serve in a presidential cabinet. He worked at McKinsey from 2007 to 2010. One of Buttigieg’s clients, the Canadian supermarket chain Loblaws, admitted to taking part in a scheme to artificially increase the price of bread over a 14-year period that included Buttigieg’s tenure at McKinsey.

Well, now, isn’t Biden doing a GRAND job of filling cabinet posts, with the rattiest, most dishonest political hacks he can find in the party. Surely there is some way the American union can rid itself of this plague of moral trash – short of open rebellion. Then again, didn’t Thomas Jefferson recommend exactly that, to rid the American nation of corrupted political trash? If it does take the blood of “tyrants and patriots alike” – the sooner the better. All men of good will have a lot to do, to correct the political degradation of the last 60 years in the country.
