Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) claims President Joe Biden, not a cancerous lesion, is what needs to be removed.
Jackson appeared on Fox Newsâ âSunday Morning Futuresâ and was asked by host Maria Bartiromo about the news a lesion was removed from Biden.
He took a shot at the president by labeling him a six-letter word as he said, âWell, look, Maria, Iâll start by saying Biden is the cancer.â
âHeâs what needs to be removed, not the lesion they found,â Jackson added.
Dr. Kevin OâConnor, the White House physician, revealed on Friday a lesion was removed from Biden.
He added it was âbiopsied,â and âas expected,â it tested positive for basal cell carcinoma.
OâConnor also said the area where the lesion was removed had âhealed nicely.â
âAll cancerous tissue was successfully removed,â OâConnor shared.
He also noted, âBasal cell carcinoma lesions do not tend to âspreadâ or metastasize, as some more serious skin cancers such as melanoma or squamous cell carcinoma are known to do.â
Jackson, who worked as the White House physician under former President Barack Obama and former President Donald Trump, has harshly criticized Biden.
In February, he tweeted, âItâs TERRIFYING for our country that Biden is our commander-in-chief. He doesnât know where heâs at half the time, and every day he brings us closer to an all-out war with Russia China.â
âHis cognitive decline is going to get people KILLED!!â the congressman claimed.
Jacksonâs criticism of Biden reportedly led to a rebuke from one of his former bosses.
In his memoir, Jackson revealed that Obama sent him an email after he tweeted an attack against Biden in 2020. It reportedly read, âI have made a point of not commenting on your service in my successorâs administration and have always spoken highly of you both in public and in private. You always served me and my family well, and I have considered you not only a fine doctor and service member but also a friend.â
âThatâs why I have to express my disappointment at the cheap shot you took at Joe Biden via Twitter. It was unprofessional and beneath the office that you once held,â he added.
According to Jackson, Obama also said his comments were âdisrespectful to me and the many friends you had in our administration,â and urged him to âexpect more of yourself in the future.â
However, Jackson said he declined to respond to the email, and it was âthe last time I had any contact with .â
