It’s been a year since I first testified against AB2098. It’s very gratifying that since then, a federal judge has enjoined the state from enforcing this unconstitutional law and that I have the opportunity to act as local counsel on that lawsuit.

I want apologize for telling a guy to pull his mask up in Costco in the spring of 2020. I believed the experts when they said Covid is spread by droplets, not aerosols. I promise not to blindly trust anyone in the future, and to hesitate before telling others what they should do.

My kids' dentist just kicked us out for not masking. We had already waited in the waiting room without masks. It wasn't until the dentist came in for the exam that they told us to leave. This obviously has zero to do with a virus. It's solely about punishing the disobedient.

Under California's AB957, a parent could lose custody for not "affirming" whatever their child believes about their gender. Here, the bill author defends this bill, using an example of a 7-year-old who announces their gender doesn't match their sex.

I would have preferred to have had dinner with my family tonight. But I couldn’t stay quiet since I discovered @MtDiabloUSD ’s sex ed program doesn’t comply with the law. Schools need to focus on their job and stop treating parents like we can’t be trusted to do our job.

The man in the video is Francis Collins, the NIH Director who emailed Fauci to call for “a quick and devastating published take down” of the Great Barrington Declaration from @DrJBhattacharya , @MartinKulldorff , and @SunetraGupta . Apparently he knew they were right all along.

In other words, he knows they were wrong and that we were right. Where is the accountability?

This clip shows the protester was asked to leave repeatedly and refused, even after the homeowners threatened to call police. She held on to the mic, risking pulling an older woman down. She said that because she was a Muslim women, she could not be touched.

If you have ignored Depp v. Heard because you don't care about celebrities, you should still care about the fact that the ACLU and the Washington Post teamed up to defame an actor because it promoted a broader agenda.

Thoughtful 10-page letter from Stanford Law dean on the recent disruption during a judge's speech. She reaffirms a commitment to free speech, took disciplinary action against the associate dean involved, and is mandating relevant training for students. 👍

The answer seems to be that if your child ends up at the emergency room, they can request their medical records from their doctor.

Birthday party with 6 year olds at a location with a swimming pool. Kid and his dad are maskers. Kid gets in pool, and dad mentions his kid can’t really swim. Later I realize I am the only adult in the pool area, and dad is gone for a while. Amazing risk assessment. 👍

This is a wake-up call to anyone who thinks we still live in a generally free society. This girl is terrified of the repercussions of her friend stating a basic, verifiable truth about gender. People are censoring themselves all the time out of fear.

Harassing this student for moving through public spaces on campus is not free speech, and UCLA should not have tolerated such conduct from these activists.

@DrMandyCohen When asked how she made decisions about which venues were allowed to open in March 2021, Cohen claimed they resulted from her "scientific team" reviewing the data. A year later she admitted she would just call her friends in other states and do whatever they were doing.
