The investigations involved Reps. #SanfordBishop (D-Ga.), #WesleyHunt (R-Tex.), #RonnyJackson (R-Tex.), #AlexMooney (R-W.Va.) and “other confidential matters that have been under review.” The committee declined to disclose further details on those cases.

The #Trump campaign issued a letter today signed by 50 #Republicans denouncing #TimWalz for misrepresenting his #military service. The letter has 29 misrepresentations about the service of the signers, including a false claim that #RonnyJackson is a retired #Admiral.

If the AP photo taken on 27 July that Pete Souza shared on Twitter resulting in the deletion of Souza's account is a bona fide photo — and I've seen absolutly no indicators it's not authentic — then why is this not a major news story? When the media followed every misstep or sniffle of Biden's for months on end?

Did that bullet wound that took off a piece of Trump's ear heal so miraculously?

Remember that Trump's former WH physician Ronny Jackson, the "Candyman" of the WH in Trump's years because of the pills he handed out without prescriptions, told the public that he had bandaged the "bullet wound" and that it was a 2 cm.-wide wound extending to the cartilaginous surface of the ear that was swollen and granulated when Jackson treated it.

"Furthermore, he reportedly no longer has a valid medical license and is certified only to provide emergency treatment or to practice on military bases.

The lack of information around Trump’s injury is troubling. In what universe is a presidential candidate shot and the hospital doesn't make a statement about the treatment? More information should be public knowledge by now."

"The only medical information the Trump campaign has released [after Trump was allegedly shot] comes from the disgraced Jackson, who was demoted by the Navy after a Defense Department report found he drank on the job, among other misbehavior. Jackson was not Trump’s attending physician immediately following the shooting."

"Rather than having his physician care for this wound, then, Trump had his trusty PR flack do so.

But maybe Trump didn’t need a practicing doctor to care for him. Maybe the wound was so minor Trump needs no day-to-day medical care, he needs only a nurse to change his bandaid.

This certainly looked like a medical report."

"Jackson often consumed alcohol with prescription sleeping medication while on the job, overprescribed medications,1 and made drunken advances on female subordinates. The allegations torpedoed Jackson’s 2018 nomination to serve as secretary of Veterans Affairs—he withdrew from consideration after lawmakers started investigating the claims that were later documented in the report—and resulted in Jackson’s demotion by the U.S. Navy from rear admiral to captain."

"There is also a layer of irony (and perhaps projection) for Jackson when it comes to alleging drug abuse. A 2021 inspector general report found him to have engaged in serious misconduct, including unethical medical conduct, during his years as White House physician under Presidents Obama and Trump."

The Bulwark · A Knives-Out House Primary: MAGA in MicrocosmBy Joe Perticone

"Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) was the White House physician known for running a pill mill out of his office, doling out amphetamines like Adderall and Provigil. So it’s entirely predictable, using our 'every accusation is a confession' rule, that Jackson would be the principal source of a baseless accusation against Biden."

The Status Kuo · Trumping the DebateBy Jay Kuo

On 6/24/2024, the House Ethics Committee said it will review a congressional watchdog report finding “substantial reason” to believe U.S. Reps. Ronny Jackson and Wesley Hunt used thousands of dollars of campaign funds for their own personal use.
Campaign committees made payments to private social clubs over multiple years, according to separate reports from the independent Office of Congressional Ethics.
