John Stockton has had the most successful professional basketball career of any Washington college graduate. He spent his entire nineteen-year career with the Utah Jazz. He was the team’s point guard when they reached the National Basketball Association finals for the 1996-97 and 1997-98 seasons. He has been voted as one of the fifty greatest basketball players of all time and still holds the NBA record for career assists and steals.
Once he retired from the NBA, he returned to living in Spokane and had lifetime season tickets at mid-court for attending basketball games at his alma mater, Gonzaga University. Inside the 6,000 arena at the McCarthey Athletic Center, he enjoyed celebrity status. The university used his presence to publicize their games. That was until he was summoned by representatives of Gonzaga. They told him in order to continue attending the games, he had to wear a mask. Stockton refused. Stockton is now one of the leading spokesmen for Voices for Medical Freedom.

WMC Brings Charges Against Pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole
The Epoch Times published an article by Zachary Stieber on January 21, 2023 that details the charges by the Washington Medical Commission (WMC) against Dr. Ryan Cole over alleged false and misleading statements about COVID-19 shots and his prescribing ivermectin to treat patients. Dr. Cole lives in Idaho but is also licensed to practice medicine in Washington state.
Below is the link to the charges:
Statement of Charges Against Dr. Ryan Cole - DocumentCloud
The summary of the charges begins as follows:
Respondent made numerous false and misleading statements during public presentations regarding the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, COVID-19 vaccines, the use of ivermectin to treat COVID-19, and the effectiveness of masks that were harmful and dangerous to individual patients, generated mistrust in the. medical profession and in public health, and had a wide-spread negative impact on the health and well-being of our communities. Respondent also provided negligent care to Patients A, B, C, and D to prevent or treat COVID-19 infections.
Besides his professional work, Dr. Cole is well known in Washington for his February 20 and 21 of 2022 appearances in Gig Harbor when he and Dr. Robert Malone presented their perspectives during a “second opinion” seminar.
Dr. Ryan Cole was one of the speakers at the January 23, 2022 rally at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC. A day later, he was one of the panelists at Senator Ron Johnson’s roundtable discussion about the COVID-19 shots. He also appeared as a panelist in Senator Johnson’s roundtable discussion concerning the same subject on December 7, 2022.
Soon after the January 23 rally at Lincoln Memorial, Dr. Cole was interviewed by Jan Jekielek on the show “American Thought Leaders” on Epoch TV.
On the show, Dr. Cole explained his successes with ivermectin when treating COVID-19 patients:
Scientifically, I read so much the mechanisms of action, pathophysiology, pharmacokinetics, understanding how these maligned early treatment medicines actually do work. And how many years we’ve known for over a decade, how many effects ivermectin has on RNA viruses? Same thing with hydroxychloroquine. There are countless studies and mechanisms saying, “Yeah, these are antivirals. They’re not just antiparasitics.” And indeed we’ve known that for along time. So, these are worthy of consideration with foundational science behind them. And so, I started treating patients, and to date I’ve treated 350 to 400 patients of which not a single one’s gone to the hospital or passed away. So, early treatment does save lives, and what’s a pathologist doing treating patients? Well, at the core of who I am, I’m a physician. And I did all those years of medicine prior to doing pathology, so I’m not going to let a patient suffer if I can alleviate that suffering. That’s my calling.
The interview also showed that using ivermectin got him into trouble before the charges by the WMC:
Now all of a sudden I find myself in the crosshairs for sharing science. Because of that, I lost one of my major insurance contracts for my ‘unprofessional behavior’ of talking about ivermectin and helping save a handful of lives with that for free. I never charged a patient.
The Epoch Times interview also showed that Dr. Cole has been stymied in other areas as well.
First came the interruption in scientific investigation:
Meanwhile, we had federal agents, who shall not be named, saying, or we could name them, it doesn’t matter. But at the end of the day, they said, “Don’t do autopsies. We’re not going to look at that. We’re not going to fund that.” Which doesn’t, from a moral ethical point of view, make any sense. If we’re going to roll something out, brand new in our population and then tell people they’re safe and effective, there’s no problems. You can’t make that claim. In fact, I think it violates the False Claims Act in advertising here in the United States in terms of telling people they need to be in an experiment, something safe and effective, but you’re not studying whether they are or not. Those of use who have sounded the alarm, we’re realizing in many people they’re not safe and effective. The laboratory patterns, in addition to the cancers, we see elevations and clotting persisting for a long period of time, post vaccine.
Second came the obfuscation and denial:
Then it takes doctors coming together actually to have a dialogue. We’ve missed dialogue in society these past two years to say, “Are you seeing this pattern?” Instead, they marginalize you and say, “Oh, that’s just crazy, and of course that’s not happening.” Instead of saying, “Hey, let’s sit down at the table, dialogue together, put data together and figure out is this a signal or not?” And if it’s not, great, but if it is, we owe humanity what we trained to do to find out why.
