Does this demand challenge ethics codes for therapists at the state level?

If Dems and MAGA don't follow the constitution or honor a valid arrest warrant for a war criminal complicit in killing 50,000 innocent people, why would they ever listen to anyone on ethics?

💔 it is little consolidation but I'm sorry

HIPAA? Anyone?
This is flagrantly against the law. If privacy isn’t guaranteed, people will not feel comfortable being honest with their therapist. This could definitely endanger lives.

The rich and powerful don't follow the constitution of course they won't obey HIPAA laws or any medical ethics.

They are above the law.

Therapists aren't texting or emailing us because it creates an electronic mental health record for MAGA DOGE.

I gave up on the VA. I signed up years ago (4 times) and never heard back from them. It's a useless organization. They have little centers here and there. All shit. This was before all this. Read the reviews on Google.

I work at the VA and we are very upset about this but we protest and are accused of being “lazy”!

I will get on my elected representatives about this right away

I never thought that I would ever see a presidential administration led by someone with such an open contempt for veterans living or dead. (Not even privately - open contempt.) And yet he was elected president twice.

So sad. He’s a coward and jealous of their bravery. He’s jealous of anyone who has true virtue or talent because he has none.
