Unless you’re living under a rock, you know that a Louisiana federal judge had issued a preliminary injunction barring many, many federal government officials from asking politely (threatening) social media companies to remove content which the government thinks is dangerous. Here is the judge’s opinion. bideninjunction Some people (myself included) consider this to be more dangerous than the content the government seeks to remove. Something about letting people make their own decisions about truth vs. falsehood which has been kicking…

Next Up for me in the Covid Misinformation Wars: The Washington (State) Medical Commission v. Richard J. Eggleston, MD

The Eggleston case is now the most important Covid misinformation case in the country, and that’s why I decided to jump into it. Dr. Eggleston is a retired ophthalmologist. He hasn’t seen a patient in ten years. His disciplinable offense according to the Washington Medical Commission is that he made some statements in the column he writes in a regional newspaper which the Commission thinks is “Covid misinformation” and shows “moral turpitude.” As far as I can tell, this is…

The news that Bobby Kennedy is running for president broke a couple days ago. For many people like me, it’s the most exciting thing we have heard in a long time. Most of you know that I work with Bobby on cases. He and I are counsel of record in Hoang v. Bonta, in which we obtained a preliminary injunction stopping AB 2098 from applying to California physicians. We were also co-counsel in 2020 on the first mandate case (a…

Where are the CDC and Medicare Whistleblowers?

Where are the CDC and Medicare Whistleblowers?

Comments 2 comments

Whistleblowers and smoking guns are the holy grails in impact litigation. They rarely surface, but when they do, they can make a case. I am sort of surprised that there haven’t been more of them since the pandemic. I’ve heard about and interacted with or about a couple of them, but I haven’t found the real deal yet, i.e., someone with current, non-stale compelling information. I have some contacts in Congress. Now that the Republicans are back controlling one house,…

CHD’s Defender just republished what I think is the best and most comprehensive news report on the status of AB 2098, now Section 2270 of the Business and Professional Code, after Judge Shubb’s decision in our case (Hoang v. Bonta) and the related case (Hoeg. v. Newsom), save for one important fact: For now, and for at least until the 9th Circuit issues its decision on the McDonald appeal, and our Judge, William B. Schubb says differently, any California physician…
