Disgraced VA Secretary nominee Ronny Jackson, will NOT be returning to his old job as White House physician.

White House physician Ronny Jackson will not return to his role as the president’s personal physician, according to two senior administration officials, after a string of allegations caused the Navy rear admiral to withdraw his nomination last week to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs. 

Sean Conley, a Navy officer who took over Jackson’s role as the president’s personal doctor last month, will continue in the role, the officials said. 

Jackson bowed out last week after Montana Sen. Jon Tester, the top Democrat on the Veterans’ Affairs Committee, released a document summarizing allegations by current and former colleagues that Jackson overprescribed pills, drank on the job and created a hostile work environment. Jackson has denied the allegations and has returned to work in the White House Medical Unit.

Now the White House claims that these accusations had no merit and Trump went after Senator Tester hard on Twitter. 


Of course the question to ask is if these allegations are so unfounded, then why is Jackson not being reinstated as the White House doctor?

And that question should be followed up by one asking if there is no validity then why is Trey Gowdy suggesting an investigation by the House?

House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy on Sunday said some of the allegations against President Donald Trump’s ill-fated pick for secretary of Veterans Affairs should be investigated. 

Appearing on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” the South Carolina Republican said, “I think some of those allegations do warrant being investigated,” referring to a series of allegations levied against the White House physician and now-withdrawn VA secretary nominee, Rear Adm. Ronny Jackson.

Yeah, something still stinks about all of this.

Also keep in mind that Senator Tester was not making these allegations himself but rather passing on information delivered to him by White House and military members who had witnessed these incidents.

I am going to go out on a limb here and suggest that neither Ronny Jackson, nor the White House really want Congress to investigate these allegations.

Just a feeling I have.

    Good riddance to bad rubbish. Even if all the allegations are patently false he is a liar (Trump's weight and height) and uniquely unqualified for the job.

    If Trump believes his own words that the allegations are false then he would not replace him pending investigation.

    Baby-man Trump's gripes are just a bit hypocritical considering how much hay he made out of falsely questioning Obama's citizenship.

    Kelly thinks he's saving U.S. from disaster, calls Trump 'idiot,' say White House staffers
    Some current and former officials said they expect Kelly to leave by July, and that Trump and Kelly seem to have tired of each other.

    White House chief of staff John Kelly has eroded morale in the West Wing in recent months with comments to aides that include insulting the president's intelligence and casting himself as the savior of the country, according to eight current and former White House officials.

    The officials said Kelly portrays himself to Trump administration aides as the lone bulwark against catastrophe, curbing the erratic urges of a president who has a questionable grasp on policy issues and the functions of government. He has referred to Trump as "an idiot" multiple times to underscore his point, according to four officials who say they've witnessed the comments.

      Kelly is a dick. He's delusional thinking he's saving the country if Trump is getting away with the shit he is. And he is.

    6. And Tillerson denied calling Trump a fucking moron just months before he was fired.

      Kelly will be lucky to last until July.

    OT Vets and Journalist:
    "My heart is heavy today with news of more terrorist bombings in Kabul, one of them targeting journalists. At last count 10 journalists were dead. Many were people who have dedicated years to covering this important and vastly underreported story. This is a reminder of the dangers of the profession, especially in places where violence is used to keep the truth hidden. Every reporter covering a dateline like Afghanistan knows that a peaceful morning can suddenly turn into a bloody hell. But the calling to bear witness to the tides of history is too great for members of this dedicated group to give up the responsibility.
    Afghanistan doesn't get much coverage in today's America, nevermind that our service members continue to be deployed there in harm's way. And we as a country bear responsibility for a nation in which we have been engaged in multiple forms for over 15 years. I have been there many times, and I have a special affinity for the land and its people. I am grateful as a journalist and as a citizen to those who continue to report this story. Whenever I come across an article or TV news report on Afghanistan I make sure to give it the attention it deserves.
    The press as an institution is not perfect. Those of us who work in it are far from perfect. But it is a vital source for information and a reckoning on the powerful. Please take a moment to think of the people who died today, their families and colleagues. Think of the countless more who continue to die in Afghanistan, especially the locals who have nowhere else to go. Try to make sure that this important story remains in our national consciousness. And support the journalistic outlets that remember that there is more to the news than that vagaries of the American political scene - no matter how important that story is."<Dan the Man Rather

    The White House Was Alerted About Ronny Jackson’s Violations Last Year And Did Nothing

    ...According to CNN, “Vice President Mike Pence’s physician privately raised alarms within the White House last fall that President Donald Trump’s doctor may have violated federal privacy protections for a key patient — Pence’s wife, Karen — and intimidated the vice president’s doctor during angry confrontations over the episode.”
