In a Conservative Political Action Conference panel hosted by Jan Jekielek, a senior editor of The Epoch Times, physicians Dr. Robert Malone and Dr. Brooke Miller explained what they see as a plan to expand the centralization of medicine. The event took place at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Fort Washington, Maryland, on Feb. 24.

“This appears to be a power grab,” said Dr. Malone, who hosts the EpochTV show “Fallout.”

While the WHO and its Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus deny it, Dr. Malone said the WHO, an agency of the United Nations, is proposing an international treaty that would allow the WHO to establish treatment norms and define a public health crisis “for anything they wish.”

Dr. Malone said this power can be used to tell the United States what to do about matters like energy, carbon dioxide emissions, firearms, and abortion.

“Everything falls under public health as an issue, and then they will have the authority to mandate what nation-states shall do in response to those public health emergencies,” Dr. Malone said.

States that object, Dr. Malone said, will be subject to potential sanctions or other actions if they don’t follow the WHO’s commands. He argued this is an unconstitutional action since the federal government is not granted public health authority under the Constitution.

“This goes all the way down to the level of the WHO being able to stipulate what medical products or procedures you receive, what vaccines you take, what medicines you’re allowed to take,” Dr. Malone said.

“This is centralized medicine on a global scale.”

Both Dr. Malone and Dr. Miller lamented the shift away from patient-driven medicine toward what they called checklist medicine.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, both physicians saw how the medical world rejected researching novel ideas and treatments for the disease and instead followed the orders of the top public health authorities.

Dr. Miller said when he was investigating treatments for COVID and presented them to fellow doctors, they “didn’t want to hear about it.”

“They only wanted to follow what the central planners told them to do,” Dr. Miller said.

Even without a WHO treaty, Dr. Malone said the medical profession is now becoming more centralized, and thinking outside the box is being punished.

“In many states, many nations, there are now laws being enacted that physicians that speak about their opinions, their observations, which differ from the approved narrative, they’re subjected to jail time in major fines up to $200,000,” Dr. Malone said. “This is coming through in Canada and already is enacted in France.”

This shift, Dr. Malone said, completely ignores the Hippocratic Oath a doctor should swear to, which compels them always to do what’s best for the individual patient.

The medical industry wants doctors to work off of a checklist and follow a set of prescribed orders, Dr. Malone said. Furthermore, he said the breakdown of individualized care is part of a broader objective: artificial intelligence-driven medicine.

“That’s where they want to go … standardized medicine where you’re all a number, and you are processed through the system given a diagnosis,” Dr. Malone said. “Checklist-driven medicine … is what’s being taught in medical schools right now, together with wokeism, this is what’s being pushed all the way through the system.”

The doctors said regular people need to get involved with their government to prevent the further centralization of medicine in the country. Dr. Miller said citizens must not be afraid to stand up to the powerful.

“We must demand that our government not sign this treaty. And I would say go even further, we must leave the WHO and defund the WHO,” Dr. Miller said.

Dr. Malone said people need to get involved with their state governments, alert them of what’s happening, and urge them to resist. He also recommended forming a commission to review what’s happening within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Finally, he said people need to seek out doctors who aren’t part of the corporate medical world.

While many doctors may not want to be involved with corporate health care, the increasing complexity of paperwork forced by the Affordable Care Act and other regulations —and the allure of money— makes it harder to avoid.

“They work for the corporation, they don’t work for the patient,” Dr. Miller said.

But the more interesting poll results came for the race for VP. With the last Republican Vice President Mike Pence being on nobody’s list of potential future VPs, it was a wide-open race. Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake emerged as the winner. According to The Hill:

Former Arizona GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake won a straw poll for the Republican vice presidential pick during the Conservative Action Political Conference (CPAC) this weekend.

Among a field of 28 candidates, Lake won the poll with 20 percent of the vote, beating former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. DeSantis received 14 percent of the vote, and Haley, who announced her bid for the White House last month, won 10 percent.

What makes this poll so interesting is that while many have called for a “unity” ticket that would put Trump with his most likely top contender Ron DeSantis as his running make, the prospects of someone who has never served in political office was still more intriguing. Lake’s campaign Twitter account responded by saying she cannot accept the post.

BREAKING: Out of 30 contenders, @KariLake wins @CPAC straw poll for Vice President.

We’re flattered, but unfortunately our legal team says the Constitution won’t allow for her to serve as Governor and VP at the same time. pic.twitter.com/gFV3z3wtxB

Lake’s case to correct the 2022 gubernatorial election results in Arizona is heading to the state Supreme Court where she hopes to expose the massive, widespread voter fraud that installed Democrat Katie Hobbs into the position.

According to NY Post:

The final numbers, released Saturday at the conference in Dallas, showed Trump out in front with 69% support.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis came in a distant second with 24%, while Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) followed in third with 2% — a dozen other candidates including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and Florida Sen. Rick Scott all received 1% or less.

Here’s the top 9:

1. Donald Trump: 69%
2. Ron DeSantis: 24%
3. Ted Cruz: 2%
4. Mike Pompeo: 1%
5. Nikki Haley: 1%
6. Rand Paul: 1%
7. Kristi Noem: 1%
8. Ben Carson: 0.4%
9. Josh Hawley: 0.3%

Hmm. A name seems to be missing. Those who get their news from corporate media or receive fundraising emails from various Republican Establishment groups might have assumed Mike Pence’s name would be there. After all, he’s been touted by the likes of Fox News as a “likely frontrunner” or “early favorite” for the 2024 nomination should he choose to run.

That’s what they want you to think.

Pence finished an abysmal 10th with 0.2% of straw poll votes.

The Trump-hating Uniparty Swamp desperately wants Trump (and DeSantis, for that matter) to be eliminated from running in 2024. They want Pence, Haley, or one of their RINO favorites to lead the party and the nation. That’s not going to happen.

Comedian, political commentator, and clearly credentialed journalist Alex Stein found Vice Media reporter Tess Owen at CPAC. He tried to ask her questions, but she couldn’t quite find the words to appropriately answer them. She was able to say it was none of his business how many times she’d been jabbed, but that she supports vaccine mandates. Go figure.

He cracks me up every time he does a video. Watch:
