"Navy Demotes Rep. Ronny Jackson Amid White House Conduct Probe"

Former White House physician and current Texas Rep. Ronny Jackson was demoted from Navy rear admiral to captain in July 2022 following a Defense Department Inspector General's report substantiating allegations of inappropriate behavior while at the White House. The report found that Jackson made sexual and denigrating statements, drank alcohol, and took sleeping pills while on the job, contributing to a negative work environment. Jackson, who continues to refer to himself as a retired rear admiral, has denied the report's findings and attributed them to political motivations.
