1/ DEI in medicine means that even if doctors injure patients, they might still be protected (even promoted). It means that top hospitals are abandoning key metrics when hiring surgeons. And it means research by whites may be disregarded. Here’s what I've found… 🧵
2/ Sources tell me Wake Forest Medical School is about to graduate Kychelle Del Rosario – the med student who injured a conservative patient and bragged about it. Wake Forest allowed Rosario to lay low and take a voluntary leave of absence when this scandal broke. Image
3/ I’m also told that UPenn Health has hired Ewen Liu, Del Rosario’s classmate who said it “seemed ‘karma-tic’” when she injured the patient who mocked her pronoun pin. Wake Forest showered Liu with awards for excellence in patient care, and she now focuses on “LGBTQ+ Health.” Image
4/ Both UPenn and Liu’s medical school, Wake Forest, have attempted to hide Liu’s hiring. Wake Forest didn’t list Liu’s hospital in graduation materials, and UPenn doesn’t list Liu’s medical school on its website. Image
5/ This is the norm in medicine. Meet award-winning Duke surgical resident Vignesh Raman. At an internal DEI lecture, Raman says his "heart sinks" when he has patients who watch Fox News or wear MAGA hats. Then he celebrates having a majority "non-white" population to treat:
6/ Raman adds that post-George Floyd, Duke made a concerted effort to stop hiring so many “walls of white men.” He says the team is now "abandoning ... all sort[s] of metrics" and adopting a "completely holistic" application practice in order to recruit more women and non-white surgeons:
7/ Raman also tweeted that he won’t “amplify” medical literature involving only white men – because it’s not as if white men have ever advanced medicine or anything. Image
8/ Vignesh Raman is just one example of a much larger trend. The American College of Surgeons, or ACS, recently gave its 88,000 members a definition of “racism” that implies it’s impossible to be racist against white people.
9/ The ACS also invited Madeline B. Torres to explain to its members that "when patients see physicians who look like them, they tend to do better." She also says grants and awards are being distributed to surgeons on the basis of minority status.
10/ This is now the prevailing view in surgical medicine. At a recent conference on DEI at UPenn, where Ewen Liu now works, one surgeon says that it's "off putting" that so many surgeons are white men.
11 / The doctors also state that surgery needs something like the NFL’s Rooney Rule, which requires that teams interview minority candidates. But the doctors say surgery needs an expanded version that goes further and ensures that minority candidates are selected.
12/ It’s bad enough when teachers or government bureaucrats talk like this, but valuing intersectionality over merit can literally mean life or death in surgery.
13/ According to a recent Johns Hopkins study, medical error is the third leading cause of death in the United States. The only thing physicians should care about is competence. Anything else will get people killed.

The shooter was a transgender regret case.

The day before this shooting, we exposed the American Medical Association’s negligence on regret data. The morning of, we exposed the AMA’s ‘trans expert’ admitting there’s no true psychiatric assessment done before transing a kid. 🧵 Image
2/ Here is Dr. Bobby Mukkamala — President of the American Medical Association —  in a secretly recorded call where he lied (or displayed gross incompetence) to a Michigan lawmaker and AMA member surgeon about trans regret rates.

3/ This falsehood was repeated by the "trans expert" sent in by AMA’s Dr. Mukkamala—Dr. Jesse Krikorian—a trans-identifying woman who thinks she's a man. Krikorian went further, saying it was 0.5-1% as compared to Mukkamala’s claim of 2%. Both are wrong.

Introducing Dr. Jesse Krikorian, a woman who thinks she’s a man and the American Medical Association’s chosen expert to defend its policies on sterilizing and mutilating kids.

Dr. Krikorian on sterilizing patients:

“Sperm is not that hard to come by. You can buy it.” Image
2/ Yesterday, you saw AMA President Dr. Bobby Mukkamala’s attempt to defend transing the kids, but instead completely unraveling at the slightest pushback by Dr. @EithanHaim. For their second attempt, the AMA offered up Dr. Jesse Krikorian.

Here’s how it went:
3/ Dr. Krikorian begins by assuring @BradPaquetteMI that “there is a lot of research,” but admits outcomes are “challenging” because none follow a patient group for more than a year or two — far too early to clinically evaluate regret or a full range of health outcomes.

EXCLUSIVE: Secretly recorded call with American Medical Association President, Dr. Bobby Mukkamala, reveals an alarming abdication of responsibility on "gender-affirming care" at the highest level of medicine.

Confronted with 'puberty blocker' side effects, Dr. Bobby evades:
2/ MI State Rep @BradPaquetteMI was told that his effort to protect children from castration, sterilization and mutilation ran contrary to the position of the AMA, so he grabbed Dr. @EithanHaim and the two went directly to the top—the AMA President.
3/ CLAIM: The AMA’s Dr. Bobby asserts that so-called “puberty blockers” are “reversible,” dismissing Dr. Haim’s attempts to correct him—despite Dr. Haim having worked with patients who need puberty blockers for actual endocrine disorders and being well versed in their harms.

UPDATE: UCLA is now being sued for anti-white bias.
2/ Last year, I published internal emails exposing the complete collapse of UCLA’s medical school into woke insanity—and the rise of anti-white hiring practices infecting medical institutions across the country.
3/ Now, @DoNoHarm has filed a class action suit against UCLA’s Geffen School of Medicine claiming racial discrimination in the admission process, and violations of the 14th Amendment, Title VI of the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1866, and CA Civil Law.

[1] We are FIVE DAYS out from the election and the coordinated media hit from The New York Times and Washington Post is here! Image
Image
[2] Indeed, just hours apart, the two most “prestigious” legacy media newspapers in the country have released pieces attempting to quash dissemination of conservative media. Both pieces are trash.
[3] The New York Times, of course, argues on the basis of Media Matters (!) “research” that YouTube is essentially making money off election denialism. Image

[1] The legacy media's coordinated attempt to DESTROY conservative media continues. Here's the email we just received from The Washington Post: Image
[2] As you'll notice, this is PRECISELY the same line of attack @nytimes tried to launch earlier this week. The New York Times targeted YouTube, attempting to cudgel them to shut down conservatives for "misinformation" using Media Matters research. The @washingtonpost is now targeting podcasts for destruction.
[3] The goal, presumably, is to pressure “companies” who “do content moderation” to censor conservative podcasts like mine. This would include social media companies, podcasting platforms like Spotify or iTunes, and advertisers. This is, as always, an activist campaign to shut down dissent.
