Controversial Congressman Ronny Jackson Makes Headlines Again

Jackson Appointed to House Permanent Select Committee

Former Navy Rear Admiral Faces Scrutiny Amidst Investigation Findings

Yesterday, Representative Ronny Jackson (TX-13) was appointed by Speaker Mike Johnson to serve on the House Permanent Select Committee. Jackson's appointment comes amidst an ongoing investigation by the Defense Department inspector general into his conduct while serving as White House physician under former President Donald Trump.

The appointment has sparked controversy due to the findings of the investigation, which concluded that Jackson engaged in "abusive and unprofessional behavior" and "lacked the temperament" to serve in his role. The report also found that Jackson "failed to maintain the confidentiality of patient information" and "made false or misleading statements."

Jackson has denied the allegations and accused the Defense Department of conducting a "biased" investigation. However, the report's findings have raised concerns among some members of Congress, who question whether Jackson is fit to serve on the House Permanent Select Committee.

The appointment of Jackson to the committee is likely to further fuel the debate over his conduct and the findings of the investigation. It remains to be seen whether the controversy surrounding Jackson will impact his ability to effectively serve on the committee or whether he will face further disciplinary action.
