Ian Carroll Unleashed! | Private Equity, Big Pharma, And The Diddy Trial | Candace Ep 184
welcome back to Candace everyone my name is Ian Carol and welcome to the first episode. where I'll be filling in for Candace while she spends time with Baby Roman later on. we'll have updates on Candace and Baby Roman and a crazy story of her hospital being evil. also Trump goes after Big Pharma diddy starts his trial and claims the freakoffs were all. consensual and the internet is losing its mind over Mcronone and his buddies. allegedly getting caught with a baggie of coke but first a scandal that started at. kids birthday parties at Urban Air Adventure parks is blowing up in a massive way and one.
mom who spent the last 3 years fighting against a multi-billion dollar private equity monster is. about to top of the whole house of cards all that and more right now on Candace. [Applause]. [Music]. so imagine you're a mom or a dad and you want to take your kids to the adventure park for a.
fun day maybe a birthday party right um that's where today's story starts with a young girl. 7 years old being taken by her parents to Urban Air Adventure Park and they were expecting just. a normal day they were expecting a wonderful day with their kid and if you've ever been to Urban. Air you would know that there's all kinds of crazy things for the kids to do and theoretically their. staff kind of helping keep them safe helping run the rides and this little girl teed up to.
get on one of the most popular rides at Urban Air um we have video from that day ready go. you got it [Music]. now this is called the Sky Rider attraction and it's going to play a big part in today's. story but I just wanted to jump in really quickly and give you a disclaimer that the.
next part of this clip is pretty traumatic and it doesn't show anything extremely. graphic but if you're a parent or you have young kids this is going to be very hard. to watch and listen to because they were not expecting their day to go like this. are you okay are you okay are you okay are you okay. are you okay somebody call 911 now so that little girl unfortunately suffered a punctured lung.
um a traumatic brain injury broken bones and permanent disability including learning deficits. hearing loss and uh her injuries are still um uncertain and sustained to this day they have. been in secret arbitration up until right now and um this is just one poor little girl's story. at Urban Air but unfortunately it is very much not the only story like this and today I wanted.
to tell you a story about Urban Air because Urban Air is a very small piece of a very big. Urban Air and it's an adventure park right and he's growing Urban Air Adventure Parks. um you know with the goal of being a big shot like his dad I would presume he eventually in.
2018 gets a whole bunch of private equity funding and expands his business rapidly all around the. United States from 45 parks at the time up well over a hundred they initially got investment from. Ross Perau's private equity firm MPK Partners and they took them from just a small business in the. Indianapolis area to a nationwide chain and they started franchising franchising allowed Michael.
Browning Jr to expand this business out and allow other people to buy into his franchise and to have. urban airs opening all around the country and to have those businesses opened by local people. that wanted to change their lives and their community by starting a business and buying. into the urban air franchise this is the story of franchising and it is the bedrock of the American. economy in a lot of ways because it's a found fundamental way that people start a business and.
not only change their own lives and their famil family's lives but also elevate their community. franchising unfortunately has taken a pretty dark turn in the last 10 years and we are going. to come back to that theme over and over and over again throughout this story because as Urban Air. expanded lawsuits started to flood in because of the way that things were being done and Michael. Browning has had some choice words that are posted on his website to say about those lawsuits but as. we dig this story open you'll see that Michael Browning's words are "Well I'll just read them.
for you." Quote "This is not a franchise where I'm sitting back at my desk in some ivory tower and. collecting royalties and teaching you a theory i'm in the trenches experiencing what the franchises. are experiencing." That is huge for our core and our motto right on Michael um good to know. it's also good to know that let's just say we have documentation that seems to imply that.
that sky rider attraction that zipline type of thing that that poor girl fell off of that. was not originally created by Urban Air um and there's documentation that seems to imply that. in fact Michael Browning Jr uh shall we say filed patents after signing a confidentiality agreement. um with the original company that founded it Leap of Faith Adventures if you search the internet for. Leap of Faith Adventures today you will find just about nothing because Leap of Faith Adventures.
no longer exists and that's a another dig for another time but let's just say that the emails. correspondences and documentation that we have kind of implies what might have happened to Leap. of Faith Adventures because when you're founding a national chain of adventure parks you need all. kinds of cool rides and attractions and stuff for the kids to do like rock walls and zip lines and. crazy trampoline spin around tumblers and stuff like that and it sounds pretty dangerous because.
it can be right and when you take your kid out to a park like that you're expecting them to be. providing the safety so that your kids can have a fun safe time out once Michael Browning Jr had. expanded his empire of trampoline and adventure parks all around the nation he realized that he. was on to something and he could expand and do even more so following a trend that is rampant in. private equity right now in 2021 Browning decided to scale up following a hot new trend in private.
equity that gets referred to as platforms where they will buy up different companies that are in. the same niche in the same sector so that if you wanted to fix up your house they've got. AC people they've got cleaning people they've got painting people this is just one example. but it happens in all sorts of different areas of our economy and Michael Browning Jr decided that. he was going to take on the niche that was all things children why not apply the private equity.
playbook of cutting costs streamlining businesses and maximizing profits to all businesses children. so that's what he did and he bought up a number of businesses in rapid succession with backing. from his private equity buddies including Silven Learning Centers Water Wings Snapology XP League. Class 101 Premier Martial Arts and the Little Gym but among all brands it has 1,200 locations across.
the country and serves 25 million children a year it generates 1.1 billion in annual revenue michael. Browning Jr seems to be doing pretty good but problems started to arise as they acquired each. of these companies and they didn't start with the little gym but our story starts at the little gym. today founded originally by Robin West and Robin McCoy and I just want to show you their faces. cuz I get the feeling we'll come back to them in the future but the story really comes to a. head when Tiffany enters the picture and Tiffany Ciance bought into this franchise as a mom that.
was doing other business and wanted to spend more time with her kids around 2017 and so she thought. that buying one of these franchises would be a great service to her community and a great way. to spend more time with her kids because her kids could attend the Little Gym and if you've not been. to the Little Gym it's a space for children of all types but particularly targeted children that have. special types of needs whether that be auditory sensory learning cognitive whatever it's a gym.
for all types of children to do gymnastics and learn through physical movement and Tiffany Siance. really found her passion there we're going to be drawing from news reporting and articles that have. reported on Tiffany's story over the last 3 years as it has gotten crazy and just recently it's gone. to a whole new level as cases against Urban Air and the parent company Unleash Brands have moved. from secret arbitration into public court as well as since Tiffany Ciance and several other insiders.
have decided that enough is enough and it's time to come clean sianci started back in 2017. and all was gravy it was a wonderful time and a wonderful business for her to run and she was very. successful at it but then right around the buyout with Unleash Brands corporate came down to her and. said "Hey we have this new advising partner and they're going to help us with this new stuff.". and they were presented as though they were just going to advise them slowly little by little it.
became apparent to Ciance and the rest of the staff that this was not an adviser this was a. buyout and the buyout was Unleash Brands and the adviser they were speaking to was Michael Browning. Jr himself suffice to say that Cianci and many of the other franchise owners were uncomfortable. with the various changes that were being made the types of changes that would separate the. people running these gyms from their clients things like call centers where when a parent. calls with a concern about their child they get a person in a call center halfway across.
the country instead of the actual teachers that work with their child every day you can see how. that could be a little bit of an issue when you're dealing with special needs kids doing gymnastics. but that's not really how private equity plays so Ciance organized her fellow franchise owners. into an association sort of like a union to push back against the changes and to stand up for the. franchisee rights just to clarify a franchisee is the person that founded the small business the. owner of the franchise the franchiseor is the big boys the corporates Michael Browning Jr in this.
case over the next three years and to this day Unleash Brands took Tiffany Ciance through legal. uh Can I say hell yeah you say hell cool over the next three years Unleash Brands took Tiffany. Siance through legal hell dragging her into hundreds of thousands of debt through untold. emotional and financial hardships through the most insane journey of just outright unethical unlawful.
lawfare this is not unique to Tiffany or unique to Unleash Brands or unique to the Little Gym. franchises are all across America and they are all kinds of businesses that support a. huge sector of our economy and franchises in particular are in the crosshairs of private. equity today because they can be so incredibly profitable for reasons that we will go into. suffice it to say when you are outsourcing so much of your business cost debt and the actual running.
of your day-to-day business to individual people to families and small business owners you can. offload a lot of risk and a lot of the hardship and just suck all the money up to the top tiffany. has been in arbitration which is a secret court system where all the rules work differently all. the judges work differently everything is for profit and everything is secret by definition. she's been in arbitration for the last 3 years and we have now got information through her and.
others that there are many many other people we're talking hundreds of other people in arbitration. just with Unleash Brands let alone with other private equity and other corporations around. the world the big picture problem with this whole story is not just that private equity is buying up. and taking advantage of small businesses not just that private equity is applying the private equity. playbook to these businesses that are focused on kids mind you but that those practices that.
private equity uses are inherently counter to safety tiffany gave this quote to the New York. Times that might be okay when you're cleaning a dryer vent but it's not when you're throwing. around a 4-month-old and you need them to be safe missy said he was moving faster than we. would need to get to know the business referring to the changes happening at the little gym and. the key word there is safe and as the clip that we open the segment shows safety is obviously not the.
first thing on the mind of Unleash Brands and of Urban Air but that is just one video and there are. many other videos from Urban Air again we are going to blur out the most sensitive parts of. these videos but we just wanted to get you a sense of what you can find just on YouTube um if you go. searching for this type of stuff Florida family is suing after their son fell from a zipline at. an amusement park a word of warning the video may be disturbing to some viewers now you can.
see the 10-year-old come around the corner and then fall 20 ft from the zipline the accident. happened in September at Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park in Lakeland an investigation. by the Florida Department of Agriculture found the boy's harness was not properly secured at. the time of the incident urban Air says the employees involved in the incident don't work. there anymore and others have been retrained so there's examples of kids falling but there's also. examples of adults and parents getting hurt in the next video a mom almost died in front of her.
own daughter at their birthday party the video is shocking a mom is hanging by her neck helpless as. she finds herself trapped on an indoor zipline time is running out she's in real danger of. choking to death it happened after she says the harness apparently came loose and slipped around. her neck it seemed as if they put the harness incorrectly instead of strapping it under my. arms it seemed as if they strapped it up here she suffered rope burns and bruises around her neck.
evelyn Rapierre is now suing the park alleging negligence and improper maintenance of the ride. and so when things like this happen the park gets sued which is owned by a small business owner. but they're just trying to comply with corporate corporate Unleash Brands pushes all responsibility. down onto the park and anything else that they can't wash away gets filed away into secret. arbitration and you agree to secret arbitration when you sign your kid in at the park when you.
sign those waivers cuz if you didn't know almost every waiver you sign these days whether you're. going to the rock climbing gym or you're signing up for some swimming lesson or you're just buying. a washing machine almost all of those waiverss include what's called an arbitration agreement. and that is where you agree to wave your rights to court and instead agree to settle in arbitration. which is essentially secret court where the judges are all for sale we're going to get.
into arbitration way more in coming episodes but suffice to say that it's a great way to cover up. all sorts of nefarious stuff if you don't want the public to know you might have noticed too that the. woman in that video made purposeful note that the harness didn't seem to be put on correctly. and that's because these rides are not staffed correctly because a Urban Air hires children under. the age of 18 16 and 17 year olds and you would think that you'd need a couple of them to staff.
these rides but there's documentation that seems to show that quote "Michael discussed reducing. the number of attendants from two to one on the Sky Rider attraction stating that eliminating an. employee from an attraction can save a park $10,000 per year that very same weekend in. Awatuki the Sky Rider attraction had one employee working when a major accident occurred in LFA's. opinion this short-term cost segment mentality is a major concern you might notice LOFA is.
Leap of Faith Adventures the company that I had mentioned had originally designed this ride the. company that I had mentioned it appeared that maybe Unleash Brands and Michael Browning Jr. might have done something nefarious to take that patent and that attraction from Leap of. Faith Adventures and now Leap of Faith Adventures is unfortunately no more but this document as well. as several others that we have are actually from when Leap of Faith Adventures took them to court.
because they were not okay with what was being done with their rides the ways they were being. set up the ways they were being run and they made specific claims about what was going on. that's not to mention that there's evidence that seems to suggest both human testimony as. well as email testimony that Unleash Brands was flying in Chinese nationals to put together their. adventure parks because it was cheaper than paying American labor you know doesn't really.
strike me as the kind of thing that's safe when you're putting together all sorts of rides and. dangerous equipment that children are going to be playing on but it is cheaper i'll give him. that so what Tiffany Ciance and all of the other franchises at the Little Gym have been through has. been horrendous it has been a multi-year process of intimidation and of coercion and of uh very. complicated changes to their businesses that do not benefit them or their children at least.
that's how they see it but there's a darker and deeper side of the story and that's when you start. to realize that private equity is a team it's a club and they are all friends together and none. of them really want the boat to be rocked and so when Tiffany started rocking the boat when Tiffany. stood up to these people and organized with her other franchises and then when she wouldn't go.
away and be silenced they decided that they were going to make an example out of her and they have. done a number of things over the years things that are almost unspeakable and we don't have time to. speak of all of them because there are so many but perhaps the most unspeakable or at least the most. uh inhumane that was done to Tiffany was captured in court during one of her depositions and I'm. going to let her speak for herself but I do want you to know that this is going to be hard to watch.
especially if you're a mother um but this is what happened to Tiffany Siance might also say that. there are very likely instances of significant emotional distress related to somebody trying to. expedite me having an abortion the day I lost my daughter are you seeking that here in this. case i would say yes and again are you talking to the recent miscarriage where uh the parties.
worked with you to to reschedule your deposition worked with me you tried to depose me in labor. you tried to depose me while I was in bed bleeding i had contractions two minutes apart so no I would. not say you worked with me i would say it was vulgar and inhuman i was copied on the emails. where you asked that I be compelled i was copied on the email where you asked that I make sure.
that I had the fastest abortion possible when my doctor's note said that I was Catholic and meeting. with my priest to avoid it i was certainly copied when you said you Miss Sixkiller said. that you thought that me bleeding baseballized baseball-sized blood clots and having contractions. 2 minutes apart wouldn't be too stressful for me in that state and you thought I should be deposed. for 18 hours this is 2 weeks later and I am still having contractions and I'm sitting here so that I.
don't have to see you again so yes I would say I was copied and it was harmful we would have. moved the hearing date out further to further accommodate you so I apologize i apologize no. that's not true that is not true when you found out I lost my baby within 30 minutes of getting. the note 30 minutes of getting the note you said you wanted me produced for deposition in labor. pre-surgery i'm going to strike and then you said that you wanted him to order me to have.
the fastest available procedure in the state of Maryland and if you'd been in court you would have. been referred for disciplinary action but we're in arbitration so here we are Miss and yes it was. a damage emotionally to me and I think I'm pretty sure you're a mom it would have been emotionally. damaging to you so that's where we wound up all because Michael Browning Jr wanted to be.
a big boy like his daddy and run a giant empire of children's focused franchises and when those. franchises spoke up and said that this is not how you run a toddler gym this is not how you run a. martial arts academy they stomped down the problem was they stomped down on the wrong woman and. Tiffany would not give up and would not die and she is still fighting to this day and by the way. those email chains that she mentioned yeah we got them and they're all right there and yes they do.
clearly say exactly what Tiffany was alleging on that stand in that deposition and a running theme. throughout this whole thing will be that when you're in arbitration let's just say there's not. really consequences for lying as long as you're on the team of the big boys there's not really. consequences for your lawyers not following the law for the judges not following the law because. it's all a system for profit and it's all being paid for and one team has millions and millions.
and millions of dollars to throw out the lawsuit and the other team is guaranteed to go hundreds. of thousands of dollars into debt until they can't fight anymore and are forced to give up and give. in but Tiffany took to Tik Tok a few years ago and I found her story way back then early on and. she has been fighting ever since and she's fought all alone for much of it but eventually she grew. a little bit of support and a little bit more and a little bit more and she's won enough of.
her cases including a defamation suit by now that now there's all of this new documentation coming. out almost everything that we've shown today has never been out before and there is way more where. that came from and there are way more people involved in this thing ready to talk about it. because this goes not just all across Unleash Brands and throughout many of their businesses. but this goes well beyond Unleash Brands out into the entire private equity world because when you. give billionaire businesses like these private equity monsters sort of a free reign to stomp.
all over the little guy you better believe they're going to take that opportunity and run all the way. to the bank with it and they've been running to the bank with it for so long that let's just say. the little guys have had enough so that is where Tiffany stands today she is currently in court and. there's a lot more to talk about as far as what's going on there but we just heard just recently. that one of these secret arbitrations because all of these cases of children getting hurt uh falling.
off of rides at the adventure park as well as Tiffany's entire case in secret arbitration about. her toddler gym all of it's in secret and so none of them could speak up until just recently and so. all these guys the team over at Unleash Brands Michael Browning Senior who is not just Daddy. he's on some of those filings Norman Leon Michael Browning Jr Laura Six Killer Steven Polo all these.
guys that are written on all these forms that are involved in all these depositions that are. on these cases they're going to come back up and um we're just going to look at what they did and. what they're doing and see why would you do that because ultimately you should stay away from our. toddlers and you should stay away from our little gyms and we want our kids to grow up in a place. where they can be treated like children and not like numbers for profit so that's the start of. that story for now that's all we got for today before we get to an update about Candace and. the hospital and how it all went with baby Roman I want to tell you about our first sponsor Gnol Land.
if you're into the world of computer programming you need to check out my friends at gno.land. gno is a distributed multi-user virtual computer implemented on top of the blockchain so that every. operation occurs in a predestined way user program code and memory states are made tamperproof by. the use of Merkel trees and consensus based verification all provided by the underlying. blockchain storage layer itself distributed gno unifies the concepts in a single concept the.
realm each realm is like an always active process running forever for example as a web server in a. regular system a live process is defined by its PID its memory and the set of system resource it. uses at a given time similarly in a GNO a realm is defined by its identity and its global memory. state which may contain for example the amount of coins it detains the realm is decentralized and. put back in control of the developer the operating system itself becomes transparent realm processes. are both resource users and providers with full control and accountability learn more at gno.land.
that's gno.land today what if I told you that you could cut your cell phone bill in half and. support a US company who shares your values values like supporting our local veterans and. creating American jobs what if I told you that you don't have to sacrifice coverage because. you'll be on America's most dependable 5G network i'm talking about the only wireless company that. Candace endorses Pure Talk a wireless company that is veteranled and invests in a US customer service. team so that you have the best support possible if you're with Verizon AT&T or T-Mobile join.
the hundreds of thousands who have successfully cut their cell phone bill in half that's right. the average family saves over $1,000 a year when they switch to Puret Talk switch in as little as. 10 minutes when you go to puretalk.com/owens with plans starting at just 25 bucks a month what are. you waiting for go to puretalk.com/owens and make the switch to pure talk wireless by Americans for. Americans so a brief update from the hospital candace gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby.
boy Roman could not be happier for her we're all feeling so good she is doing well i just talked. to her earlier baby Roman is doing great and they are back from the hospital but there was a. funny incident after the hospital because Candace naturally after you had a healthy baby and she was. feeling great she left before the recommended 48 hour uh holding time not sure why they need you to. stay there for 48 hours and take all their little medicines and get all their ointments that they.
prescribe obviously she did not give baby Roman all these you know shots like hepatitis B vitamin. K is thatitis all these things uh Department of Child Services shows up at her house doing a more. or less a wellness visit asking her all sorts of questions why did you leave the hospital early and. she wanted to clarify when she was communicating the story to us that the person that visited was. perfectly nice and just doing their job but they were doing the job of going out and more or less. pressuring mothers into you should have getting these things and you why are you leaving and it.
just is a part of this whole pharmaceutical medical complex cartel of pressuring people. into getting the drugs getting the shots getting the vaccines and Candace obviously being based. was like "No thanks bye i'm doing great go away." So Candace will be back at some point to give us. updates to tell us how she's doing um she'll jump into the show from time to time while she's on. leave but she's doing awesome and she says hi to all of you so next on to the Diddy trial yesterday.
the Diddy trial got underway to a slightly late start um the jury got sworn in opening statements. were read funny anecdote where the prosecution struck seven black jurors um and the defense. was trying to call them racist and it became this whole thing ultimately the judge sustained their. motion to strike those jurors um you know I'm not trying to make a comment on that i just thought. it was funny the way that it got reported on um but then it turned out that victim three unknown. we don't know who it is but victim 3 apparently is missing um just a few weeks ago victim three.
came forward or didn't didn't come forward but said that they were willing to testify in the. trial um and though we don't know who it is it's obviously was important to the the case because. they were going to put victim 3 on the stand and then just before this all came together and before. Diddy took the stand victim 3 apparently was out of communication and we do not know where they. are my thought immediately went to um the girl Ally that is sharing all this salacious stuff i.
went and looked her up and she's still posting on TikTok it's not her so I don't know what to make. of it i don't know who victim 3 is um I'm sure we can all come up with some crazy conspiracy. theories about what's going on there diddy side is hoping for a mistrial just because they don't have. one of their witnesses that is extremely unlikely but it is possibly going to cause some delays and. it might actually impact the ability to prosecute Diddy um I presume that Diddy is pulling out all. the stops as we've heard reportings of private investigators looking into people and people being. pressured or influenced by his family members and just all sorts of shady shady shady shady shady.
and it's diddy so what did you expect um it's also worth noting that Marine Comey the daughter. of James Comey is on the prosecution team she also recently served as the lead prosecutor for Gileain. Maxwell so it's it's just a funny small club of people up here and ultimately that's that's what. I really want to talk about here is that as you might expect nothing really seems like it's going. to come out of this and that's because this is not the case that we were all hoping for them.
to try we got on this case i mean if you've been really following it since Cassie and before yeah. there's a lot going on here but when the Lil Rod lawsuit dropped and most of us kind of caught wind. of Diddy and what was going on the case was that Lil Rod's lawsuit seemed to imply and allege that. this was a sexual blackmail operation and that all of Diddy's homes were wired up with secret. cameras recording everything that happened and that Lucy and Graange and Universal Music Group.
were named in that lawsuit originally except then they mysteriously disappeared off the lawsuit. no answers as to why um that was the lawyer for Lil Rod that took them off saying that there. was no evidence that they were involved i'm sure that it was just a big mistake that they got named. in the first place despite the fact that in the evidence in the testimony or in the allegations. in it like documented it clearly says that Lucen Graange was at the parties that Lucen Graange had.
every reason to know what was happening at the parties that he had private visits with Diddy. in the evenings at his home where they disappear into his room for extended periods of time but. you know when you're the big boy at the top you don't get looked into you don't take the stand. you don't get the dirt on you and when I was talking to the team earlier they made me aware. that I did not even know that there's a whole backstory on Lucian Graange and his big daddy.
and oh boy is that another dig for another day um but I just wanted to point out that the more the. Diddy trials progressed the more they seemed to depart from what was actually really being shown. and suspicious in the first place which was what seemed to be a trafficking ring with what seemed. to be blackmail involved with what absolutely for sure was this uh shall we say the ex- head. of security of Michael Jackson somehow becoming the head of security for a trafficking operation.
a blackmail mail ring for drugs for whatever he's doing for Diddy uh everything about this operation. stank not to mention the property he had on the border of Mexico so I'm not too optimistic about. what's going to come out of the Diddy trial itself but I am hoping that we'll at least see some dirt. thrown on some other celebrities some cracks open up in other parts of the industry that hopefully. will let's just say tip over a few dominoes because there's a lot of dominoes ready to fall.
and it's worth noting too that it's not just the Little Rod lawsuit that has made these allegations. these allegations are widespread in the industry both from people that have worked alongside Diddy. in the music world as well as from bodyguards like Gene Deal most of those girls especially. if they like mixed drinks you understand they see the bottles when they open them and they.
trying to keep their eyes on because they don't want to get no kind of drugs put in their system. but what they don't understand is in the orange juice and it's in the cranberry juice they didn't. put the pills and the stuff in there the ruies the ecasy the ease oil whatever they they put. it in the juice yeah but they don't put it in the baby oil don't you worry about it so that's the. Diddy story for now you're going to think I'm describing weight loss injections but I'm not.
these remarkable weight loss testimonials came from a doctor formulated weight loss supplement. called lean patty S said "I've finally found a weight loss product that works i wanted to lose 20. pounds and lean really curbs my appetite." Lorie M wrote "I struggled to get weight off and lean has. been lifesaver i've been losing a couple pounds a week or more." And Kelly F said "Amazing i. immediately noticed an energy boost and a healthy weight loss in weight i would promote this product. to anyone." Lean was created by a doctor and university researcher to target the goals of.
GLP1s but without the injections the studied ingredients in lean have been shown to lower. blood sugar radically reduce appetite and burn fat by converting it into energy if you're struggling. to lose weight in a healthy diet and exercise isn't enough lean is for you get started with 20%. off just use code candis 20 at takelean.com that's code candace20 at takelean.com again takelean.com. results vary these statements have not been evaluated by the FDA and is not intended to.
diagnose treat cure or prevent any disease and is not a substitute for care from a healthcare. provider donald Trump is coming out hot after big pharma and he's you know had some rhetoric. and he's had some stuff to say about pricing for a while but he just recently dropped a new executive. order that as far as I can tell is like a silver bullet against big pharma that is going to take. away a huge amount of their revenue stream as well as a kneecap an entire shadow industry that is the.
PBM that just siphons money out from in between as a middleman in the pharma world it is now on. the White House website officially today's executive order and if you read in section. five it details specifically um what it calls most favored nation price targets and this is something. that Trump has referenced before but it has never really gotten he never was able to get it through. and there you can see at the bottom of the first paragraph communicate most favored nation price. targets to pharmaceutical manufacturers to bring prices for American patients in line.
with comparably developed nations now when Trump put out a true social post about this just the. other day he said "We're going to bring the prices down to the lowest of any nation there. is." Meaning that if in Zimbabwe they're paying a dollar per pill then in America we pay only a. dollar per pill whatever the lowest price around the world is that language has been modified a. little bit so that in the actual executive order now Americans are mandated apparently. to we get to pay whatever the lowest price of any other developed nation which is awesome because.
right now we're getting grifted so hard right now Americans are paying more than just about. any other nation in the world often by multiples of two five or even 10x what other countries are. paying for the exact same products also in section 4 he seems to enable direct to consumer sales. from the pharmaceutical manufacturers at the most favored nation price which is really interesting.
because I I mean let's just say I've never been there i'm no pharmaceutical expert but from what. I'm reading there that seems to be very much a death blow to a vast portion of pharma's profits. i mean I don't know what to make of that other than extreme optimism because that's not all. he also is going after the PBMs the pharmacy benefit managers he ordered RFK to facilitate. programs for pharma manufacturers to sell direct consumers at the best nation price.
uh if you're not familiar these PBMs pharmacy benefit managers they're companies that manage. prescription drug benefits um and health insurers and employers and they they just kind of like. middleman in between the whole system um and they just take a huge cut out from the middle like an. insanely huge cut pbms are over a trillion dollars a year in combined revenue according to an FTC. report I think from last year um maybe from 2023 um so I mean a lot's going on here and I'm sure.
that a lot of people far smarter than me will have all kinds of takes but I'd be surprised if anyone. has any take that is not positive because I mean we all love big pharma right so anyways speaking. of drugs again couple of the big boys got caught allegedly with a little baggie of drugs but is. that really the story that's going on here i'm sure you've seen by now if I mean if you have an.
ex account you've definitely seen and if you don't have an ex account you've still probably seen. Macron just squirreling away the little bag of whiteness on his table and all that stuff that's. been taken over the internet and everyone's making funny memes and AI videos of them dancing and. whatever else and yeah he grabs his little bag and [ __ ] it away but like let's just let's just pump. the brakes for a second here guys it it might be a tissue like it really might be a tissue and like.
maybe it's a bag of drugs like a really big bag of drugs like just so like that's a lot of drugs and. uh just on the like maybe but regardless even if it's a bag of drugs or it's a tissue you. can argue about that all day long and yeah it's a funny scandal whatever but um that's Emanuel. Mcronone and if you don't recall um he's married to a dude and in case you're not up to date on.
the story and all the other implications of that story there's a whole series that Candace Owens. made on this very YouTube channel that you could watch yourself and you might learn all about how. Emanuel Mcronone married his um much much older teacher that uh was not always a woman and might. have even possibly one day been in his very same family that seems a lot more scandalous than world.
leaders doing cocaine which I'm sure they probably all do and they might even all do right before the. media comes into the room to do interviews with them we've all seen the images or the videos. of Zilinski and uh Ardurn just going going all sniffly sniffly um we've seen it and it's I'm sure. it's happening but ultimately the scandal is that he's married to a dude and that that implies all. sorts of other things that we want answers to so yeah that's the story about the drugs it's fun but.
let's be real it kind of feels like a distraction guys let's keep our eyes on the bigger prize like. the Illuminati controlling the world through a crazy I'm sorry I'm kidding i'm kidding i'm. kidding anyways that's about it for our episode today i think that about wraps us up i really. appreciate you guys coming to hang out i really appreciate the whole team bringing me in and.
welcoming me to the studio i cannot wait to learn from them to learn from all the crazy rabbit holes. that they've been down and to share them all with you if you haven't already remembered please like. the video share the video subscribe to the channel um and I'll make sure that Candace comes and pops. in to say hi before too long here but for now have a great night and we'll see you tomorrow [Music].
