Summary
Democrats and Republicans are cleaning house this week: both Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales resigned from Congress following a wave of scandals. Dr. Drew is taking your calls and wants to know: Are they “innocent until proven guilty” or is the evidence so strong that they just needed to go? Global tensions continue to escalate as the Iran War continues. And in a rare move, President Trump deleted one of his Truth Social posts that many perceived as blasphemy – was this a smart move, or did he bend to the mob? Joining Dr. Drew to answer calls is ophthalmologist and surgeon Dr. Azadeh Khatibi, who fights for bodily autonomy and medical freedom in Sacramento. Dr. Azadeh Khatibi is a fellowship-trained and board-certified ophthalmologist, surgeon, physician-scientist, filmmaker, actress, teacher, and activist. She is currently working on a film about free speech in medicine. She hosts the show WITHIN with Dr. Azadeh Khatibi, MD, MS, MPH on YouTube, Spotify, Rumble and podcast platforms. She was a Regent’s Scholar at UCLA, graduating Phi Beta Kappa with Highest Departmental Honors in Molecular, Cell, Developmental Biology. She studied at UCSF in the Joint Medical Program and holds a Master’s in Public Health and a Master’s in Health & Medical Sciences from UC Berkeley.
