FOXNEWS- Dr. Ronny Jackson, the embattled nominee for secretary of Veterans Affairs, has withdrawn his name from consideration, saying the “false allegations” against him have become a “distraction” for President Trump.
The announcement comes after more allegations surfaced overnight, including that he crashed a government car while drunk.
Jackson denied the claim and as recently as Wednesday said he was looking forward to answering “everybody’s questions.”
But on Thursday morning, he pulled his name.
