DOJ Investigating Medical Journals For Fraud; Publishers Call Letters “Harassment” w/ Elijah Schaffer & Dr. Ram Yogendra – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 481
Fri, 09 May 2025
The DOJ is investigating top medical journals for biased editorial practices, alleging they suppressed studies on COVID-19 vaccine risks and alternative therapeutics for partisan reasons. NBC reports the science publications (including CHEST, New England Journal of Medicine, and Obstetrics and Gynecology) were sent letters “questioning their editorial practices.” In response, medical journal The Lancet called the letters “harassment” and claimed science in the USA was being “violently dismembered” by all of these annoying questions being asked by the peasants. “This corrupt web of suppression, fraud, and retractions demands a legal reckoning,” writes epidemiologist Nicolas Hulscher. Dr. Ram Yogendra, MD, MHP, is a board-certified anesthesiologist with a public health background. He advocates for vaccine injury research, highlighting issues like the persistence of S1 spike protein in monocytes post-COVID-19 vaccination.

Chapter 1: Why is the DOJ investigating medical journals?
Well, today, amongst other things, we are going to get into the Department of Justice investigating medical journals for essentially re-coaction, which is what RFK Jr. promised would happen. I didn't realize it was going to happen through the Department of Justice, but it makes sense that it would. The journals are calling it harassment.
Several journals, the Journal, OBGYN Journal, CHEST, and a couple that have not yet been identified. Great guest today, Dr. Romuald Gendro, who's been doing research on long COVID and long vaccine. He's finally got his stuff published. He's going to talk about his frustration with doing so. And then in studio, we are in Elijah Schaefer's studio. And he joins me today.
He's a journalist for The Gateway Pundit, host of Slightly Offensive on Censored, as well as Almost Serious on Riff TV. He is a presenter on Vigilant News Network. And he's known for having filmed the Kyle Rittenhouse shooting and being inside the Capitol on January 6th. Let's get to these guys. Our laws as it pertain to substances are draconian and bizarre. The psychopath started this.
He was an alcoholic because of social media and pornography, PTSD, love addiction, fentanyl and heroin. Ridiculous. I'm a doctor for five months. Where the hell do you think I learned that? I'm just saying, you go to treatment before you kill people. I am a clinician. I observe things about these chemicals. Let's just deal with what's real. We used to get these calls on Loveline all the time.
Educate adolescents and to prevent and to treat. If you have trouble, you can't stop, and you want help stopping, I can help. I got a lot to say. I got a lot more to say. I'm excited to bring you a new product, a new supplement, fatty. I take it. I make Susan take it. My whole family takes it. This comes out of, believe it or not, dolphin research.
The Navy maintains a fleet of dolphins, and a brilliant veterinarian recognized that these dolphins sometimes developed a syndrome identical to our Alzheimer's disease. Those dolphins were deficient in a particular fatty acid. She replaced the fatty acid, and they didn't get the Alzheimer's. humans have the same issue. And we are more deficient in this particular fatty acid than ever before.
And a simple replacement of this fatty acid called C15 will help us prevent these syndromes. It's published in a recent journal called Metabolites. It's a new nutritional C15, pentadecanoic acid, it's called. The deficiency that we are developing for C15 creates something called the cellular fragility syndrome.
This is the first nutritional deficiency syndrome to be discovered in 75 years and may be affecting us in many ways, and as many as one in three of us. This is an important breakthrough. Take advantage of it. Go to fatty15.com slash drdrew to receive 15% off a 90-day starter kit subscription.

Chapter 2: Who are the guests on this episode?
Did you see? It is. It's so ridiculous. Did you see Winston Marshall in the press pool yesterday?
No, no, no, I didn't, but you mentioned it, yeah.
Yeah, so he, I mentioned on the Almost Serious podcast, I guess, because I love that guy. And he, you know, they put new media. You could end up in the press pool, you know. They put new media in the front row there, and they get the first question out. And he said, given the seriousness of the transgressions of civil liberties in Britain, would you consider having...
What's the word when people see us? Would you have asylum seekers from the UK? Would you consider that? And Carolyn Leavitt, to her benefit, said, yeah, I'm going to go look into it. I'm going to talk to the National Security Group.
Yeah, they care. I mean, if you put a meme up, this is real stuff. You know, people always talk about, oh, you know, if I was alive when Hitler was out, I would have, you know, hid the Jews. I would have stood up. That's right. But then things happen today. You see people getting jailed for just a picture, and it's like, well, you're not even standing up for a lesser crime.
Why would I think you would stand up to something greater?
Lesser crime with lesser consequence. Correct. And most of them are climbing on board, which to me indicates they'd be the prison guards.
I think so, too.
They would not be standing up. They would be the freaking prison guards. I mean, we saw it during COVID. Anybody who yelled at you for not wearing a mask, prison guard, 100%. Anyone who reported a neighbor for having a barbecue, prison guard. That's who you are.

Chapter 3: What is Fatty15 and how can it benefit health?
And then we must archetypically link that to Nazism, which, of course, the Americans, for their right reasons, wouldn't be largely accepting of Nazism. And then we'll also throw it in the movies and lay this idea that Nazis are the enemy. Nazis are the enemy. And what? If you say and you want order, you're not just a guy who wants order. You want authoritarian Nazism.
So it demonizes the call to order. It makes people afraid for their jobs because calling for order won't make you lose your job. But being a Nazi might.
But you told me yesterday that you had some data that suggested that Gen Z was moving towards more authoritarianism, which was really shocking to me. I can't believe.
52% right now of 18 to 24 are believing some form of authoritarianism might be the solution out of the housing and the cost of living crisis.
What would that look like? Redistribution of something?
They lean towards authoritarian communism and fascism. In fact... Is Trump their solution? No, no, no. They think Trump's too moderate.
I see.
So I went to CPAC. Are you familiar with that? The conservative PAC?
Yeah, yeah.
