Dr. Bandy Lee, a forensic psychiatrist on the faculty of Yale School of Medicine and an internationally recognized expert on violence. She edited the best-selling book, “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Metal Health Experts Assess a President.” On June 28, 2018, 22 mental health professionals authors of the book submitted a formal proposal for revising the so-called “Goldwater rule” an ethical guideline that prohibits diagnosing public figures without a personal examination.
In response to a growing number of psychiatrists speaking up about signs of dangerous impairment in the president, the American Psychiatric Association (APA), issued a “reaffirmation” of the rule that many psychiatrists have called it a “gag order,” and members rose up in protest: calls for a vote, demands of a commission to reexamine the rule, and scores of resignations ensued. Dr. Lee will be joining the WBAI family this month. The Jordan Journal is heard on Fridays from 3-5 p.m. on WBAI 99.5 FM
