FOX Business host and MAGA Queen Maria Bartiromo, used disgraced former WH doctor Rep. Ronnie Jackson, to promote the conspiracy that President Joe Biden is preparing for the CNN debate by testing different drug combinations to make sure he will be "able to perform" on Thursday.

Bartiromo reads off Ronnie Jackson's resume, which seems impressive, but omits Jackson being demoted by the Navy following a damaging Pentagon inspector general’s report that substantiated allegations about his inappropriate behavior as a White House physician, including taking drugs while attending two presidents. Dubbed " the Candyman" by handing out various meds all willy-nilly. Jackson was found to have smelled of alcohol while on the job."

Let's not forget his entanglements with a State trooper that resulted in him being handcuffed on the ground.

MARIA BARTIROMO: I spoke with the former White House physician, Dr. Ronny Jackson, on Sunday. He's a board-certified emergency medical physician. He was at the White House 14 years during the Bush administration, the Obama administration, and the Trump administration.

He took care of all of those three presidents.

And here's what he said about Joe Biden questioning his mental capacity.

And he's writing to the White House to demand a drug test.

Watch.

Jackson: You certainly don't have to be a physician to the president to see what's going on right now.

So I have sent five letters previously asking for President Biden to submit to a cognitive test, very similar to the one that President Trump got while he was president.

And all five of those letters have gone completely ignored.

So tomorrow, I'm sending a letter to President Biden, to his physician, Dr. O'Connor, and I'm CC'ing his entire cabinet.

And it's embarrassing that I have to do this, and it's really embarrassing as a former White House physician to have to do something like this.

BARTIROMO: I mean, it's pretty incredible that Ronny Jackson says Biden will have been at Camp David for a full week before the debate, and that they're probably experimenting with getting doses right, giving him medicine ahead of the debate.

Is that what you think?

The absurdity of these allegations highlights how disgraceful Fox News, FOX Business, and the right-wing echo chamber have been during the 2024 campaign cycle.
