Sort of shocked they actually enforced their own rules - no professional diagnosis without an examination. Ironic she voted for a dementia patient probably because of his high moral character.

A former psychiatrist at Yale University sued the college for wrongful termination, numerous sources reported. She was allegedly fired over tweets that said supporters of former President Donald Trump suffered from “shared psychosis.”
Bandy Lee, who served as a faculty member at Yale for 17 years, alleges the university fired her after she tweeted in January 2020 that Alan Dershowitz, a lawyer on Trump’s legal team and part of Trump’s “inner circle,” had “wholly taken on Trump’s symptoms by contagion,” the Yale Daily News reported Tuesday.
Following the tweet, the lawsuit alleges Dershowitz sent an email to Yale alleging Lee had violated ethics rules of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) by diagnosing him as suffering from psychosis “based on my legal and political views, and without ever examining or even meeting me.” Dershowitz also called on the APA to discipline Lee.
Lee was not diagnosing Dershowitz, according to the lawsuit, but commenting on the “contagion of symptoms that can happen in a situation where a highly symptomatic individual is placed in an influential position.”
