Ronny Jackson today announced his bid to serve as the next top Republican on the House Armed Services Committee. Current chair Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL) is term-limited in the HASC top GOP post. Dr. Jackson, who is a retired U.S. Navy Rear Admiral and served as the White House physician for several presidents including Donald Trump, chairs the Armed Services panel on Intelligence and Special Operations. Quote: Ronny Jackson @RonnyJacksonTX I'm PROUD to announce that I’m running to be the next Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. America needs a military that's SECOND TO NONE. As Chairman, I'll fight to strengthen our national defense, support our servicemembers and their families, advance President Trump’s Peace Through Strength agenda, and safeguard America for GENERATIONS TO COME!! https://x.com/CraigCaplan/status/2076653503431193053
