Trump's mental state

A federal judge tossed out a wrongful termination lawsuit against Yale University from a former psychiatrist at the school who said she was fired for publicly questioning the mental health of former President Donald Trump and his associates.

Bandy Lee, a psychiatrist who formerly worked at the Yale School of Medicine, claimed that the Ivy League institution ended her contract and violated her First Amendment rights, The Yale Daily News and The Hartford Courant reported.

In her ruling on Tuesday, US District Judge Sarah Merriam stated: "[Lee's] vague assertion that some unspecified provision in the Faculty Handbook creates a right to 'academic freedom' is plainly insufficient to show that [the] defendant undertook a contractual commitment to guarantee plaintiff continued reappointment," per the Daily News.

Lee's termination was linked to her 2020 tweets where she posted that Alan Dershowitz, a famed lawyer who previously represented Trump, and the former president's supporters "experienced shared psychosis," according to the reports. Lee said she was practicing her "duty to warn" the general public about Trump's mental state, The Courant reported.

1. Damn!

[Ferrets are Cool]

2. She got the wrong judge.

3. Really?

The judge she got is a former public defender who was named by President Biden to the US District Court for the District of Connecticut in 2021. She was confirmed with the support of every Democratic senator and four repubs; the rest of the repubs opposed her. Biden then nominated her to fill a vacancy on the Second Circuit -- a nomination applauded by Democratic leadership. Her nomination was reported out by the Judiciary Committee in June, with all but one repub opposing her elevation to the appellate court.

But you must have some other information about her that no one else does.

4. You cannot deny that she got the wrong judge for the outcome she desired.

5. I don't believe the right judge exists

Her case lacked merit.
