Trump calls on Tester to resign over Ronny Jackson allegations:
Associated Press contributed to the report. Seems all those scandalous allegations against the doctor made at the congress have no basis in facts.

Sounds like Senator Testor is guilty of libel/slander.

I am glad Trump is pushing back on this.

It's time to hit these people who can get away with character assassination without any facts.

There haven't been any records of Jackson wrecking a govt vehicle, as was alleged. Surely there would be if it happened.

Makes one wonder if he wasn't the victim of a political hit job.

BS.

Over twenty current and former coworkers spoke out against him. There was also the IG report.

There are several other threads about this if you are at all interested in accurate information.

Jackson gave an interesting rebuttal to these accusations.

Jackson replied with, "I never wrecked a car." He did not add that he never drove drunk.

I have no doubt that there's some dirt in his background. Most of us have some incidents we aren't proud of. Besides, I wasn't in favor of him being named VA chief. His experience as a Navy doc just doesn't prepare him to manage a huge bureaucracy.

But I have to wonder about all the fuss after he served well for both Dubya and Obama.

Now his reputation is stained, regardless.

Right or wrong, I'd bet 98% of us who drink have driven over the legal limit at one time or another.

That would be 100% of college students.

If the good doctor has any drunken driving convictions, those have to be reported to the medical board for possible disciplinary action.
