Whistleblower Professor Fired For Exposing DEI Corruption Scandal | Rick Addante | Ep. 52
Rut sits down with Dr. Rick Addante—a neuroscientist, tenured professor, and whistleblower—who risked everything to expose corruption at Florida Tech.
Rick reveals how the university’s president admitted plans to defraud taxpayers and the government of up to $69 million in student loan funding and grants, while pushing prohibited DEI and CRT programs. For standing up for truth and integrity, Rick was terminated without due process, leaving his family without insurance or income.
This is more than just one man’s story—it’s about the weaponization of academia, the erosion of free speech, and the moral courage it takes to stand up against corruption.

The $7M and $69M corruption scandals at Florida Tech
-
How DEI and Title IX are weaponized across campuses
-
Rick’s journey from wrestler to neuroscientist to whistleblower
