Pretty Big Update on Mackenzie vs Cali. Medical Board: Board closes its investigation after we file suit, and we just filed an amended complaint

Perhaps by coincidence or lucky timing, six days after we filed the lawsuit against the Cali. Medical Board for investigating Doug Mackenzie for “covid misinformation,” the Board send him a letter saying that it was closing its investigation (which investigation was commenced in December 2021). I figured that would happen. So, today I filed an amended complaint adding a physicians’ group (Physicians for Informed Consent) as a plaintiff, to help rebut the anticipated argument that our lawsuit was moot. Here…

How often has the CDC and the Medical Authorities been Wrong about Covid? Let me count the ways. (with apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning)

How often has the CDC and the Medical Authorities been Wrong about Covid? Let me count the ways. (with apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning)

For my preliminary injunction motion in Mackenzie v Prasifka, I’d like to follow up something I talked about in the complaint and list all the ways the CDC and infectious disease experts got it wrong and had to reverse court and how subsequent studies confirmed things that the critics had been saying all along based on case reports and statements by line physicians. The point to be made is that whatever mistrust the pubic has about the vaccines or the…

Watch Me on the Robert Scott Bell Show Today, July, 13th at 12:00 PM PDT speaking about my case defending physician free speech against government censorship

I’ll be on Robert’s show today discussing the Mackenzie v. Prasifka (the ED of the Cali Medical Board). I’ll go into how I see the case going and why I think this case will end up at the Supremes in the next six-eight months. here is the link to listen to the show. http://www.robertscottbell.com/listen/ I don’t think there is a call-in portion. So: I think I’ll do a live Zoom broadcast on Friday to talk about the case and some…

LAWSUIT! CALI. MEDICAL BOARD SUED FOR FREE SPEECH VIOLATIONS, (and there might be more lawsuits coming)

LAWSUIT! CALI. MEDICAL BOARD SUED FOR FREE SPEECH VIOLATIONS, (and there might be more lawsuits coming)

Friday afternoon, I filed a federal civil rights lawsuit on behalf of a physician against the Medical Board of California for investigating him for speaking out in public against the government’s Covid mandates, and his questioning some of the “consensus” science and public health goals (zero Covid). Per the first sentence of the introduction, “This is a First Amendment challenge to the Medical Board of California’s attempt to intimidate by investigation, censor, and sanction physicians who publicly disagree with the…

AB 2098: Is the Cali. Legislature going to Add Fourth Amendment Illegality to this First Amendment Unconstitution bill?

AB 2098: Is the Cali. Legislature going to Add Fourth Amendment Illegality to this First Amendment Unconstitution bill?

Something may be afoot as AB 2098 passes through the Senate’s halls, but I can’t quite figure it out. So, I thought I’d kick it around with you and increase public vigilance. After AB 2098 passed through the business and professional committee, a 12-page legislative analysis/summary was put out by a consultant, one Sarah Mason. Here is the whole document: 202120220AB2098_Senate Business, Professions And Economic Development. I think it is a pretty ok summary. But I want to focus on…

As Expected, AB 2098 Moves on to the Senate Appropriations Committee

As Expected, AB 2098 Moves on to the Senate Appropriations Committee

The hearing before the Senate professions committee (not its actual name) just ended. 8-4 (I assume on party lines) in favor of moving the bill. The bill goes next to the Senate appropriations committee. The bill will surely pass through that committee. I was surprised by a few things: First and foremost, the sponsor, Assemblyman Low showed no great understanding of the bill or the issues. He just kept repeating buzz phrases. Maybe he’s a good legislator, and maybe he’s…

Let’s Get it Rolling about the Abortion Issue, and you guessed it, Roe v Wade is GONE, GONE, GONE

Let’s Get it Rolling about the Abortion Issue, and you guessed it, Roe v Wade is GONE, GONE, GONE

Let’s be clear about the fundamental issue involved in the upcoming and prior abortion cases. You could say that the issue is whether women have a fundamental and absolute right to control their own bodies. I don’t think that is the issue because that has already been decided and the answer is no, there is no absolute right for women to control what happens in their own bodies, and counterintuitively, that “no” answer came from Roe v. Wade . Specifically,…

For Grins, here’s my prediction on the Supreme’s decision on Abortion

For Grins, here’s my prediction on the Supreme’s decision on Abortion

Roe v. Wade is overturned by 5 justices of the Supreme Court. Roberts concurred with the result but wouldn’t go as far as the Five who overturned it. The justices who told the Senate with a straight face that Roe is a strong precedent and “settled law” that is entitled to stare decisis protection concurred and tried to distance themselves from Alito’s absolute language of Roe being wrongly decided from the get-go. The three liberal justices vehemently dissented, calling it…

Breaking News: The Supremes Just Struck Down NY’s and Every States’ Right to Impose Open Carry Gun restrictions; It’s Going to Suck to be a Cop

Breaking News: The Supremes Just Struck Down NY’s and Every States’ Right to Impose Open Carry Gun restrictions; It’s Going to Suck to be a Cop

The Supremes have just released its opinion on New York’s open carry of guns law, aka New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v Bruen. . Here are the opinions. 20-843_7j80 In short, the Supremes (or the conservative majority) struck down the New York law which restricted the open carrying of legally owned guns because it violated the Second Amendment, as it was understood back when the Constitution was written by a bunch of white racist, misogynistic slave owners (many…

AB 2098 gets amended again, and the very minor protection is gone

AB 2098 gets amended again, and the very minor protection is gone

To recap, AB 2098 is California’s attempt to effectuate the Federation of State Medical Board’s call-to-action to state medical boards to sanction physicians for criticizing the mainstream Covid narrative. The bill passed the Assembly and is now before the Senate. It is scheduled for a hearing on Monday, June 27th. In the last couple of days, I received two notices which raise some questions. First, Monday I received a notice from an activist reminding people that they had until the…
