Sat 08:28:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ "Steven Peyroux of Canton is charged with conspiracy to commit health care fraud for allegedly heading up the scheme that, according to the indictment, submitted $12.1 million in claims to Medicare for at-home COVID-19 tests that Medicare beneficiaries never requested or needed.
Sat 08:28:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ On social media for his company, Legacy Doctors LLC, Peyroux promotes the services he offers other medical providers, saying in an Instagram video that “We have programs that will help you make an additional million dollars a year, I know most people say that but I’m telling you the truth.”
Sat 08:28:23 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ However, the indictment alleges that Peyroux did that by helping others defraud Medicare. Prosecutors write that Peyroux allegedly offered Medicare providers across the country “the opportunity to purchase beneficiary information for hundreds of thousands of Medicare beneficiaries in order to fraudulently bill Medicare for OTC COVID-19 tests.”"

Sun 01:23:00 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] 1) we are not going back to letting rianne be subjected to many criminal activities by so-called 'self-described' trans activists
Sun 01:23:06 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] who are basically worse than trolls
Sun 01:23:31 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] 2) attacks like these would result in updates being given to British police, just in time for the cases we filed for harassment in the UK High Court
Sun 01:23:42 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ 06 032121 < schestowitz[TR3]> gnumoon imposter?
Sun 01:23:49 │ 〖MinceR〗 │ no, just an unfortunate tor user caught in the blast
Sun 01:23:50 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] (at least one of the banned accounts was connected to the militants)

Sun 01:24:06 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] anyway, wwe won't go bakc to 2023
Sun 01:24:10 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] we filed lawsssuits
Sun 01:24:22 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] based on the evidence collected in 2023 and 2022

Sun 01:25:27 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] rianne came back home and then told me about this scrollback
Sun 01:25:41 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] don't worry, it'll never be like 2023 again

Sun 01:27:46 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] it is also NOT impossible that ther above trolls came here due to:

Sun 01:28:10 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] he tends to send attack dogs to smear critics of his
Sun 01:28:12 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] let me check
Sun 01:29:08 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ The federal government has more-or-less gotten the states in line again on gender ideology.
Sun 01:29:30 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They're not going to push that anymore if they stand to lose almost 20% of their education funding.
Sun 01:29:52 │ 〖schestowitz[TR3〗 │] oh, it's in the front page at lxer
Sun 01:30:07 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Even if state laws let you change your "gender markers", you take that to Social Security or to get a passport and you can't do anything with it.
Sun 01:30:34 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ People are going to renew their passports, and the feds send it back with their original gender marker and name on the new one.
Sun 01:30:54 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ They've created this gigantic problem now where legally, they have a split identity.
Sun 01:31:13 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ This will propagate to things like the credit bureaus who will likely split your credit file now.
Sun 01:31:22 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Track you as two different people, cause a lot of problems.

Sun 03:34:10 │ 〖IsambardPrince〗 │ Now, last time this happened, the next day I tested it, by unplugging my UPS from the wall -- and the Mac behaved perfectly fine! ◀◀ Read that part again.
