The Kevin Bass Case¶
In January 2023 I wrote in Newsweek that the scientific community had been wrong about COVID. After writing that piece and defending it online, I faced a relentless online smear campaign that led to my dismissal from medical school at Texas Tech. I have filed two lawsuits against Texas Tech's medical school. I allege First Amendment retaliation, due process violations, and other violations of my constitutional rights.
Real justice in cases like mine is rare. But there can be truth. This site holds the record — the court filings, the documents, and what I wrote at the time. Receipt by receipt. I will keep adding to it as the cases and my records requests move forward.
