Our friend, Dr. Meryl Nass, joins me on VSRF Live tonight, and the Maine medical board may have a much bigger problem than they expected!
Dr. Nass has practiced medicine in Maine since 1997. She’s an expert on anthrax and biological warfare, has testified before Congress six times, and had no disciplinary history before the COVID era. Then she challenged the medical establishment’s COVID narrative.
In January 2022, the Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine suspended her license and ordered her to undergo a neuropsychological evaluation amid controversy over her COVID-era prescribing and public statements.
Now the tables may be turning.
A Maine court previously threw out that order as “arbitrary and capricious.” And on August 20, 2026, Chief U.S. District Judge Lance Walker allowed a central part of her federal civil-rights lawsuit against individual Board members to move forward.
The language in his ruling is remarkable. Walker described the psychological-evaluation order, based on Nass’s allegations, as “based on no evidence or process” and wrote that such an action “simply ought not occur, ever.” He even raised the possibility that the Board was “making an example out of Dr. Nass.”
Tonight, Meryl and I will talk about what happened, what this ruling means, and where the case goes from here. But this is bigger than one doctor: How much power should a medical board have to punish a physician for challenging medical orthodoxy—and what happens when the people doing the disciplining are forced to answer for their own conduct?
I look forward to this conversation, and hope to see you there. Bring a friend.

The board is charged with public protection--safety of the public FROM physicians.
As it were, the irony is that the boards were harming the public by protecting the vaxx-docs and punishing the HCQ/ivermectin docs. Not only that, but the boards went over board and tied anchor chains to their prey out of sheer malice.
Anyone who suffered covid persecution before these boards has license to take them to the cleaners. They failed in their duty to protect.
Board members may bristle and say that they were in the hot seat during a trying time and their only hope was to do the right thing--pressure was immense. Fine. So, why when NO cures or hospital treatments of any perceived value existed did they jump on the bandwagon and snuff out HCQ when it popped up in remote corners with BACKING and testimony by front line physicians?? The board members then stepped in it when they decided to play physician and own the treatment regimen responsibility. If practice without license is punishable, they all practiced.
Bottom line, they are naked before the law. A grounded board member had no problem navigating covid correctly.
We had the pleasure of hearing her speak at a Polyface Farm Retreat last weekend. She is an amazing person with rare courage! Many thanks for sharing her story with as many as possible!
