Oh, the horror! An older gentleman following doctors orders to make sure he gets the best possible sleep and oxygenation. I’m shocked I tell you, shocked!

Well, Ron Jackson is the same doctor who said trump could live to be 200, rather than having his heart pop like an oversized zit from lack of exercise and diet. The MAGA types really do have a fetish for trump as this macho buffed out manly man, rather than the aging and crumbling tribble mobility scooter he actually is.

You have a gift.

'Course, now I have a mental image that will give me nightmares, but you have a gift.

Maybe Pat should have their own chapter in the Fogbow Dictionary.

As a strong advocate for pro-life policies, I will ALWAYS fight for the rights of the unborn!

I proudly introduced an amendment to #FY2024NDAA that stops illegal and immoral taxpayer funding of military abortions.

The DOJ did everything they could to STOP any investigation into Hunter Biden. There’s a two-tiered system of justice, and Hunter Biden got away with EVERYTHING. Anyone else would’ve spent YEARS behind bars!!

Speaking of bars, what do you think Jackson's drink of choice is? He doesn't seem like a beer guy, whiskey maybe?

I will vote AGAINST FAA reauthorization. There’s NO WAY I can support a bill that doesn’t rehire pilots that were fired because they didn’t get the Covid vaccine. There’s NO WAY I can support a bill that doesn’t BAN DEI & other racist policies. I’m a NO on FAA reauthorization!!

He may need a reminder to prebook his seat on the Greyhound bus really early to get to Washington D.C. - competition will be yuuge

Despite Jackson's valiant effort, FAA reauthorization passed.

On Thursday, the House passed a Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization bill to renew funding for the agency for the next five years https://trib.al/vRKdPd7

Why did 38 Ds vote against the FAA...

[bob]

Why did 38 Ds vote against the FAA...

I presume "the usual": Too much pork (or otherwise "unacceptable" tangigently related requirements).

It seems there was a fight over flights into the Reagan airport; I could see the airlines that were going to get the short end of that stick trying to buy some Members of Congress to sink the entire package over it.

The bill clocked in at a breezy 773 pages; shirley there's enough hidden in there to offend a few people.

Why did 38 Ds vote against the FAA...

As happens with some bills, you have folks like AOC, Omar, etc. voting with Green, Gaetz, Biggs, and Ronny.

Because they're boobs?

Really this is how it should always be. Lose some from both edges and everyone meets in the middle. Too bad one party has gone completely insane.

Witness says Rep. Ronny Jackson handcuffed and ‘briefly detained’ during rodeo while trying to assist with medical emergency

CNN — Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas was handcuffed and placed on the ground face-first by local law enforcement while he was trying to assist teenage girl in medical distress at a rodeo over the weekend, according to a witness who spoke to CNN.

In a Facebook post, Linda Dianne Shouse, a home healthcare and traveling nurse, said her 15-year-old relative was “seizing due to possible hypoglycemia” Saturday night at the White Deer rodeo, about 45 miles northeast of Amarillo, Texas. Jackson represents the Amarillo area and was an attendee at the rodeo.

Shouse said she and another family member, who is also a nurse, were attending to the girl when Jackson, who is an ER physician, stepped in to assist. Shouse said she didn’t know Jackson was a congressman at the time but told CNN they were all working together to help the teen girl.

“We were just waiting for EMS to get there. The police came up, the deputies, highway patrol, and everyone was just screaming, ‘Get back, get back, get back,’” she said during an interview.

Shouse said she was pushed back and then punched in the chest by a woman and said she saw a law enforcement official screaming in Jackson’s face, telling him to “Get the f**k back.”

“He was trying to tell them that he was a doctor and probably trying to tell him who he was, to be honest. And they were screaming that they did not effing care who he was,” she said. “And the next thing I knew, they had him on the ground, grabbed him by the shirt, threw him on the ground, face first into the concrete and had him in cuffs.”

Shouse said once they realized Jackson was a congressman and doctor, they uncuffed him and started apologizing.

“We had the scene under control. We were just ready to give a report to EMS and get the patient out of there. And that’s not what happened,” Shouse said, recalling what she described as a “loud, chaotic” situation. “She wound up going eventually, but whenever you have someone laying there – when it could be neurological – time is on your hands.”

In a statement provided to CNN, a spokesperson for Jackson said the congressman was “briefly detained” while trying to help the teenager. When Jackson approached the scene, a relative of the girl, who is a nurse, was assisting the 15-year-old. Jackson asked if the relative needed any help, and she said she did, according to the statement.

“While assessing the patient in a very loud and chaotic environment, confusion developed with law enforcement on the scene and Dr. Jackson was briefly detained and was actually prevented from further assisting the patient,” the spokesperson said.

Police action saves teenager from crazy man.

My initial thought was Jackson was probably drunk and obnoxious, but after reading the story, it sounds like these officers were overreacting.

Yeah, that was my impression as well. As much as I dislike this guy, he's not the problem here.
