Ronny Jackson, the former White House physician turned GOP congressman, regularly touts his military bona fides. ... "As a retired U.S. Navy Rear Admiral with nearly three decades of military service I understand the commitment and sacrifices made by servicemen and servicewomen to serve our country," the two-term Texas representative writes on his congressional website, posted to a page listing his work on veterans issues. {1}
But Jackson is no longer a retired admiral. The Navy demoted him in July 2022 following a damaging Pentagon inspector general's report that substantiated allegations about his inappropriate behavior as a White House physician, a previously unreported decision confirmed by a current defense official and a former U.S. official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive personnel move. {2} ... Jackson is now a retired Navy captain, those people said -- a demotion that carries significant financial burden in addition to the social stigma of stripped rank in military circles.
Despite the demotion, Jackson has continued to refer to himself as a retired rear admiral, including in statements released since the Navy reclassified him as a retired captain. Former president Donald Trump and other Republicans have also continued to publicly describe Jackson using his former rank; it's unclear if they were aware of his demotion.
Jackson's office did not respond to requests for comment about the Navy's 2022 personnel action and his demotion.
Look, this Katie Britt address - breathy, theatrical, on the verge of tears - is completely weird, very coached and like a high school acting audition.

But you have to remember that these people know their base, and the base is going to *love* this.
