  • HOW IS THIS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN IN THE UNITED STATES? Orthopedic surgeons are choosing the metal they put inside your body based on kickbacks, royalties, speaker fees, and stock deals — not on what gives you the best outcome. Device companies pay them to pick their implant. Your hip, your knee, your spine becomes a sales transaction. When that implant fails years later, they get to do it all over again.

  • New details revealed about who was behind Maria Bartiromo’s departure from Fox. Ralph Giordano, Fox Business SVP of Programming, reportedly instructed Maria’s producers NOT to cover President Trump’s upcoming primetime speech on election integrity and China on her show. Maria disagreed. She wanted to cover the story because Americans deserved to know what the President actually said. They deserved the chance to hear his message and judge it for themselves. She reportedly screenshotted Giordano’s directive and sent it to the White House. The White House called Fox. And suddenly, Maria was the problem.
