“The substantiated allegations in the DoDIG investigation of Rear Adm (lower half) Ronny Jackson are not in keeping with the standards the Navy requires of its leaders and, as such, the Secretary of the Navy took administrative action in July 2022,” a Navy spokesperson told CBS News.
Hey. Hey 'member - member that time when trump was just taking office and one of the things is predisents have to get a medical exam in the first year and everybody was like “oh ho now trump has to face a real doctor and not just his crazy pill doctor before the election who wrote his recommendation in the limo on the way to the airport, this is gonna be a military doctor and we’ll get his actual height and weight and all the stuff, he won’t be able to lie anymore about wearing lifts and a girdle and a diaper because they’ll all be out in the open like the founders intended” hahahaha
Ahhh. No seriously we thought that at least there was a chance a real navy doctor would at least give proper stats and so on.
NOPE. It was Ronny “gakked to the gills” Jackson! Motherfucker. He came out for this press conference and was Scaramucci-like in his disgusting tonguebath of trumps bloated carcass. “So healthy! Good genes! He’ll live a long fucking time! WHOOOO!!!” he said, while snorting up a crushed percocet. Or something like that.
Fucking Ronny Jackson. OF COURSE Texas elected him to the house. Of course they did. Why wouldn’t they.
What I find remarkable is that Ronny Jackson was the WH doctor for part of the Obama administration, too, and Obama was the one who recommended him for the promotion to Admiral in the first place. (That bit was in the WaPo article this is based on)
I remember the pod save America guys talking about him before he was a Texas rep. They were saying how much they liked him and how he helped them sleep and stay up. Being a Dr Feelgood is probably very expected for the role.
It’s easy to be good when you’re sitting in church with your family. It’s easy to let all the stops out when you’re in the backroom of an afterhours club.
Good enough for Obama in his 8 years in the White House…
And Biden tapped Bush and Cheney’s old doc to come back.
You think they were keeping a tight lid on pill bottles back then?
The issue is the WH doctor is exempt from basically all regulations and can do whatever they want.
It’s been abused going all the way back to at least JFK, and neither party wants to address the issue. Because they take turns benefitting from it.
But I’d rather not have geriatrics on meth cocktails running the country.
We could just get someone middle aged with the energy for the job
There’s also part of it being that the president might need to be turned on in the middle of the night for some important thing and then turned back off when it’s sorted. This may be part of why presidents age so quickly.
This may be part of why presidents age so quickly.
Good thing we’re running young capable people who can deal with that physical and mental toll…
We could just get someone middle aged with the energy for the job
This is america. The boomers will never let go until they are dead or dying. Thankfully the vast majority of them have done nothing to take care of their meat suits so they should be checking out sooner than later.
I’m middle-aged (53) and I’m GenX. FFS, you kids think everyone over 40 is a Boomer. Boomers were my parents.
Dude, everyone in Congress is like 70+.
Joe Biden isn’t a Boomer, he’s part of the “Lucky Few” generation. Trump is a Boomer.
Jesus Christ, Biden is so old he isn’t even a fucking Baby Boomer?! Fuck.
Apparently he’s from the “Silent Generation”. Goddamn.
Normal people don’t hang out with the creepy ones. We all know that person I’m talking about. So, if you do then it’s usual due to shared interests. Just saying.
Now do Michael Flynn, US Army.
He should be happy he’s not in prison?
