On Sunday, our own Just Mindy posted about nurses and teachers and how they seem to be so easily radicalized. Alex Pretti, who was shot by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis on Saturday, was an ICU nurse. One person suggested that teachers, nurses, and government workers all "come from the same pipeline of Communist indoctrination." Others blamed the unions for radicalizing the masses.
Here we have posts on a couple of nurses we wouldn't want to be in charge of our healthcare. Our first candidate says it is his right and ethical oath not to provide anesthesia to MAGA who are undergoing surgeries. I don't know much about the healthcare system, but I think that decision would be up to the anesthesiologist. Anyway, he says he owns all of his businesses and can refuse anyone.
Uh, yeah ... about that ... an anesthesiologist is in charge of administering and overseeing anesthesia for surgical procedures. Your empty boast to deny anesthesia to surgical patients of the Republican persuasion is downright infantile in the extreme, but it does accomplish one good thing - it shows the Florida authorities that you are unqualified to hold your nursing license.

He says he won’t give anesthesia for Republicans undergoing surgery and believes that’s his right and is ethical.
He needs to be fired and stripped of his license immediately. @FLNursingBoard

Hmmm ... maybe he's just temporarily a quivering emotional wreck because Miami lost the NCAA national championship game, eh?
It's his "ethical oath."

Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) ~ UPDATE: Erik is now claiming his FB and IG were hacked. There’s a slight problem. It was on Threads too. Was your Threads also hacked Erik?? LMAO!
Nobody is buying this Erik. We have all the receipts!
You’re about to see the FO stage of FAFO. You’re losing your license.



UH OH, Erik ... looks like somebody has already heard back from the Florida Board of Nursing, eh? BWHA HA HA HA!!! Play stupid games; win stupid prizes, Erik.
Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) ~ UPDATE: Erik is now scrubbing his accounts and just scrubbed this post too!
Is he going to claim he was also hacked when he posted this appearing to call on people to take up arms against ICE?
I have all the receipts!

Awww ... it's soooooo hard being a loony leftist retard!

He sure doesn't sound like a "first, do no harm" kind of guy. It's a shame that someone hacked his X, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and even Threads accounts. Let's hope he gets this mistake corrected quickly.

Gator Gar (@yalligatorgar) ~ He’s heartbroken he’ll never be able to medically torture a Republican.
PoIiMath (@politicalmath) ~ Medical associations need to come down on this so hard that the fallout can be seen from space. Medical workers who flirt with this kind of behavior are eroding a foundational brick of modern civilization.
Well, it certainly reveals that Erik does not possess the temperament nor the common sense to be a medical professional who holds the well-being of patients in his hands. Looks like he is much better suited for a position in the ditch digging profession.
Your Mom (@AFKHuckleBerry) ~ Remember when bakeries were being sued for refusing to make cakes? How is this okay?
Windchaser (@windchaser22) ~ I agree but since the ANA and other associations have already come out and taken sides before any investigation has even started, more and more will feel emboldened to act this way.
Yeah, but it's the state licensing board that matters, here ... not the American Nurses Association.
Our second candidate is healthcare worker Stephanie Judge, who posted that Pretti should have mowed down each and every Border Patrol agent with his tricked-out Sig Sauer. She also complained that an agent wasn't bloody enough, as he was still standing.

I Meme Therefore I Am (@ImMeme0) ~ Meet Stephanie Judge from North Carolina. She is a healthcare worker and a radical extremist who believes protesters should be “mowing down” federal agents trying to do their jobs and even thought an attacked, bleeding agent wasn’t “bleeding enough.”
People with views this extreme have absolutely no business working in healthcare.

Fascist Colonizer (@FacistColonizer) ~ No way she should be anywhere near healthcare.
Liberty First (@focusonliberty) ~ This one needs to be fired. Immediately.
Mike Macioci CRPC® (@MikeMacioci) ~ I wonder if some of these healthcare workers are abusing medications or maybe they should be on some.

PollyG (@PollyGHHC) ~ Why are healthcare workers, who are supposed to understand the fragility of life, acting like this?
That is a good question. As Just Mindy observed, healthcare workers and public school teachers seem to really be overrepresented in this group.
