First they came for undocumenteds, you said nothing because you’re there legally.
Then they issued visa bans on multiple countries and set ICE on rampage. You stayed silent because it didn’t affect you.
Now they’re targeting those already in the legal green card pipeline: forcing H-1B and O-1 holders to leave the U.S. for consular processing.
Don’t speak up.
Green card holders are next. Then naturalized citizens. Then US born children of non-citizens. Then …
I disagree with the Department of Justice going after Yale School of Medicine over DEI admissions policies and arguing that objective metrics like GPA and MCAT scores should dominate admissions decisions.
The evidence does not support the idea that standardized test scores alone identify the best physicians.
The MCAT predicts performance on other multiple-choice exams reasonably well. What MCAT scores do NOT predict are clinical judgment, communication, bedside skill, or physician performance. Put another way: doctors who test well tend to do well on examinations. But test scores do not predict how well they care for patients in clinics, hospitals, surgery, or real-world medicine.
Meanwhile, more diverse physician workforces are associated with better preventive care, greater trust, improved access, and lower mortality in underserved communities. There is no objective evidence that excluding minority applicants within a reasonable score range improves patient outcomes.
We need minority physicians in this country, and we have the data to prove why.
So when people insist that “objective measures” alone should determine admission into medicine — while ignoring the evidence about what actually improves patient care — I increasingly see that argument as less about merit and more about preserving exclusion under the comforting language of statistics.

We need a constitutional amendment to impeach senators. You cannot lie to the American people about who you are, change your position completely, and then stay in office for 6 years. This is unacceptable.
