As Democrats Push for Medicare for All, Prepare for Politicized Medicine

We learned during COVID that the notion that healthcare was a “right” was a joke; the Left were itching and eager to deny healthcare to anyone who didn’t bend the knee and get the COVID vaccine. We have no reason to believe they wouldn’t do the same thing under Medicare for All. Abdul El-Sayed, one of the biggest proponents of socialized medicine, said years ago that breast cancer funding went to women because they have “social power and privilege.”

That wasn’t an off-hand comment. That was the observation of someone who wants to fix what he perceives as an “injustice.” How does that happen? By reallocating those funds away from breast cancer research and treatment and onto other pet causes … like sex changes for illegal aliens, something else El-Sayed supports.

If you think I’m being hyperbolic or reactionary, you haven’t been paying attention. In Canada, where they have “free” and “universal” healthcare, wait times are astronomical, and the biggest demographic group victimized by the Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program is white, wealthy Canadians. They’re being euthanized at rates higher than dogs, and MAiD’s death toll exceeds American gun deaths.

There’s also a long and well-documented history of left-wing healthcare providers targeting their political opponents. 

Dr. Lara Kollab was accused of threatening to give Jewish patients the wrong medication in a string of antisemitic social media posts. The Cleveland Clinic confirmed that post but said there were “multiple safeguards and direct supervision” that would have blocked Kollab, then a medical resident, from harming patients.

In October 2023, a New York cardiologist, Dr. Anthony DeCiccio, admitted he sedated a Jewish patient who questioned DeCiccio’s Palestinian pin to “silence” that patient. In January of this year, Florida nurse Erik Martindale said he would refuse anesthesia to “MAGA patients” during surgery, wrongly citing the state’s medical conscience law. Martindale later lost his license. 

That same month, a leftist on Facebook told a conservative woman that healthcare should be denied to people whose political opinions “drive fascist regimes that cause tangible harm to the environment and minority groups.” That means conservatives, in case it wasn’t clear.

Florida labor and delivery nurse Lexie Lawler told then-White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt she hoped Leavitt would suffer a “4th-degree tear” during childbirth and have other medical complications.

And back in July, I wrote about how Democrats want to put DEI before your health and safety by elevating to medical schools students who are wholly unqualified to be doctors but check the right DEI boxes.

A total of 12 people associated with the University of Michigan have been indicted this year on charges including conspiracy to transmit threats in interstate commerce. These pro-Palestine activists, many of them pre-med or medical students, wanted to pressure the University of Michigan and others to disassociate with Israel.

Multiple med/pre-med students at the University of Michigan were caught planning to poison future patients if they weren’t “aligned with Palestine” while also planning to kill fellow students and teachers.

U of M refused to condemn their actions. https://t.co/SCYPp8cmAE

Medical student Ahmet Kerem Korkaya, who conducted research at the University of Michigan but was a medical student at the Medical College of Wisconsin, wanted to become the “dirtiest f***ing doctor ever,” and specifically wished to serve as a doctor for a specific victim so he could slowly poison that person. Korkaya and co-defendant Page Feyock, also allegedly discussed targeting families by putting them on “hit lists” and driving vehicles into homes. Defendant Zainab Hakim was in a post-baccalaureate pre-med program and worked at the University of Michigan and defendant Mariam Odeh was on a pre-medical track, too.

Over the weekend, we saw a group of antisemitic, DSA affiliated goons descend on the Rittenhouse neighborhood in Philly to demand Jewish businesses leave. Jack Smith compiled a list of people who bought red MAGA hats for a reason. It’s all part of ongoing patterns of behavior from the bullying, tyrannical Left.

At this point, how can anyone not believe that Medicare for All would be the biggest weaponization of government in the history of the nation? The government rarely ever does anything out of altruism, and that’s even truer where Democrats are concerned. It’s about power, and control, and there’s no better way to ensure people bend the knee than to threaten their very lives.
