"In 2004, Tribe acknowledged having plagiarized several phrases and a sentence in his 1985 book, God Save this Honorable Court, from a 1974 book by Henry Abraham.[44][45] After an investigation, Tribe was reprimanded by Harvard for "a significant lapse in proper academic practice," but the investigation concluded that Tribe did not intend to plagiarize." Unintentional plagiarism? Is that like accidental shoplifting? Probably best not to put store items in your pockets in the first place.

Dr. Keriaty, I have been following your path since the early months of Covid and have admired your truth, courage, moral compass, faith, compassion, and stamina. I know it must have seemed at times a Sisyphean endeavor. I want you to know that you have given me hope that we may turn our colleagues around from their mass formation so that they may re-engage with their Hippocratic Oath and their duty as healers. Missouri v. Biden is a small light in an enormous murky bog, and it feels precious. I pray every day that this light grows and shines brightly to lead the way for our peers who have been lost. May the road rise to meet you...

They are peddling contradictions consciously and deliberately, just as their machiavellian and revolutionary predecessors did: for "the end justifies the means."

Dr. Kheriaty, did you ever appeal your 9th Circuit case for the second time? I think you should complain that your federally protected right granted by ADAA as amended 2008 to not be regarded as disabled applies to your situation at UC Irvine. Your immune system was allegedly wrongfully regarded as limited (regardless of how minor the limitation) for more than 6 months and you experienced an adverse employment action because you were allegedly regarded as disabled (limited immune system abilities for more than 6 months). My case asserting virtually the same is making its way through the 9th Circuit as well. For a section 1983 lawsuit you have a limited amount of time to lodge your complaint. I think you could still win considering the clash between the 1905 caselaw of Jacobson versus Massachusetts and the more recent 2008 amended Americans with Disabilities Act. That clash and advances in medical science since 1905 should lead to a victory.
