In 2021, Dr. Aaron Kheriaty was fired by the University of California Irvine for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, arguing his natural immunity provided robust protection. When his posts about his legal battle were suppressed on social media, he realized he wasn't just fighting his employer— the federal government itself was directly orchestrating censorship of his free speech. Fast forward to today: Dr. Kheriaty just secured a landmark legal victory in the historic Missouri v. Biden lawsuit (formerly Murthy v. Missouri). ••「 LINKS & SOURCES: https://drdrew.com/412026 」•• Thanks to Dr. Kheriaty's victory, a federal court consent decree now permanently bars government agencies—including the CDC, Surgeon General, and CISA—from threatening social media platforms to censor constitutionally protected speech. Dr. Kheriaty joins Dr. Drew to break down the 20,000 pages of discovery, the "industrial scale" government censorship machinery, and what this victory means for the future of free speech and physician autonomy.
