By Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD – http://marilynsingletonmdjd.com/ These days more and more apparently intelligent people seem to upspeak. That’s the irritating “Valley Girl” inflection where every sentence sounds like a question. Don’t these people trust their own thoughts and words? Perhaps upspeakers’ brains are fried after being fed a steady diet of DEI, ESG, […]
By Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD – https://marilynsingletonmdjd.com/ One of Albert Einstein’s many aphorisms, “three great forces rule the world: stupidity, fear and greed,” is particularly apt in the Covid era. Our government’s duty is to warn the public of a possible pandemic and recommend precautions. However, the initial Covid tactic was to strike fear […]
By Jane M. Orient, M.D. Students looking forward to getting back to college are getting letters from 100 to 200 colleges notifying them of a new prerequisite: getting fully vaccinated against COVID-19. As one letter states, this is because of our “our continued desire to protect the health and safety of our community.” This includes […]
By Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD – https://marilynsingletonmdjd.com/ While everyone is preoccupied with mask-shaming and vaccine-cheerleading, scientists are engaged in critical research with a more lasting effect on our lives. For 100 years scientists have dreamed of creating and developing life outside of a womb. In March 2021 that dream came true. Scientists grew naturally […]
By Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD – https://marilynsingletonmdjd.com/ Discarded surgical masks strewn along the sidewalk aptly represent COVID-19’s lasting legacy. The federal medical bureaucracy’s response to the pandemic has resulted in a wasteland of lost economic and educational opportunities, psychologically damaged children, terminally lonely nursing home residents, and lives lost to suicide, illicit drug overdoses, […]
By Jane M. Orient, M.D. The most important public health concern, according to the American Medical Association (AMA), is systemic racism. We should turn away patients requesting early at-home treatment for COVID (“not enough evidence of effectiveness”) and focus on uprooting the racism that is assumed to lurk in the subconscious of every white person […]
by Tamzin A. Rosenwasser, M.D. H.R. 1 is the first bill proposed by the newly installed Majority to disenfranchise all who would oppose their radical programs, so that they can retain power forever, no matter how many ordinary Americans are destroyed. H.R.1 would not be a threat, nor would it even be conceivable that it would be […]
By Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD – https://marilynsingletonmdjd.com/ In the 1960s anti-war activists adopted songs like the Eve of Destruction and For What It’s Worth as their anthems. Disenchanted youth feared that the world was on the verge of collapse; we were nearing the end of days. Concurrently, the civil rights activists were singing the […]
By Marilyn M. Singleton, MD, JD http://marilynsingletonmdjd.com/ On Martin Luther King, Jr.’s holiday, I’m reminded that Rev. King was not only a thinker but a man of action. While today’s social justice omphaloskeptics are pondering white privilege, Marxist critical race theory, and “the intersectionality of health equity,” COVID-19 is busy killing black and brown Americans.

By Jane M. Orient, MD Students of history feel that we are living in a time comparable to 1848 (the Spring of Nations) in Europe, 1917 in Russia, 1933 in Germany—or the times of the French Revolution, the American Revolution, or the U.S. Civil War. Most Americans who are alive today have lived in a […]
