dr. jackson did disclose this private information. ronny jackson angrily brought up the fact this was private information at the time. perhaps some connection here but clearly there were significant concerns internally raised about ronny jackson's from the vice president's world and perhaps this is the follow-up from that. >> just very briefly,ignations . is it your understanding this was a voluntary resignation or under pressure? >> that's the question here, of course. we have no reporting to lead to the fact that she was pressured to resign, but you can't ignore the facts of the reporting and the events that the president or the white house was refusing to withdraw those allegations. those weren't just allegations by random people. they were by people who worked with dr. ronny jackson at the time and people who formerly worked with him. his coworkers were saying these things about him, alleging these things, ask that's whnd that's his resignation being pulled. dr. jackson has returned to the unit. he isn't the president's attending physic

dr. ronny jackson won't be getting that post. his nomination is withdrawn. people close to kelly have said he won't accept that. sarah sanders from the podium today said also this is a non-starter. let's be clear the president often floats job ideas to people without following through. kelly still has a position in the white house tonight. people around him have suggested that there is still a relationship there, perhaps it's not irrev caably broken. there's no question. president's frustration with kelly has grown considerably in recent weeks and months from his handling of the rob porter affair,. this chief of staff's influence in the west wing has diminished considerably. the reporting the last day or two probably will only shrink it further. as one person in the west wing has told me in the last 24 hours, kelly's days are numbered. it's not a question of if. it's a question of when. >> two guys who do a great job of covering this white house, matthew nussbaum and jonathan lemire, thanks. >>> coming up, is donald trump right to be as optimistic as he is a

dr. ronny jackson. >> he ignored it. >> yeah. it was utterly ignored. manu's reporting is phenomenal. but that also the vice president's doctor felt intimidated by dr. jackson and almost refused to meet with him anymore. >> there was an angry altercation of some kind. >> jackson apparently owned. >> he wasn't dr. feel-good for him. >> that's the point. there may be a kiss up. >> let's try to put it into the category of what does it mean. i'm of two minds on this. this documentation comes out no reason to believe it's not legit. good. good data point. the white house pushes back and says this was a dispute between doctors. they don't like each other. that's all it is. it doesn't show anything different. okay. fine. then they say, by the way, all the other allegations that came out are false. it's not just the white house that's putting this out. friends of their's, respected guy, ari fliesher who did the job done there with the bush administration, it was in a tweet, right, inherently incomplete and ari would have to speak for himself. he says all the all

dr. ronny jackson who withdrew from the president's pick.ing the ranking democrat on the senate veteran's affair committee. crashing a government vehicle and excessive drinking on the job. the president fired off tweets. here is one of them. were no such findings a horrible thing that we in d.c. must live with. tester very dishonest and sick. it was on this program when senator tester shared one of the most serious allegations guest jackson. >> i understand he had a nickname. >> it was the candy man. he handed out prescription drugs like they were candy. that's correct. that is what we were told. >> that is not a nickname you want in a doctor. >> well that was last week. the controversy is not over. new allegations. manu raju joins us with the details. i understand these allegations are from this past fall. >> reporter: we are learning these serious concerns about ronny jackson's conduct did stretch back into last fall when the vice president's conditions -- we have obtained that highly what the physician said was quote intimidating, an aggr

dr. jackson's performance, but there's certainly a lot of words that were used in both. michael cohen, dr. bornstein who in an interview with nbc said he felt raped. ronny, i don't know what he's going to do, he's out as white house doctor, everyone who comes in contact with the president ends up tarnished or worse. >> as soon as you broke it my first thought was michael cohen. there is basically a basket of people who have either worked with the white house or been involved with the trump's lives for years ended up completely chucked out the basket and thrown under the bus. this is what happens. a long-time trump associate who hasn't worked for the president in many years once told me that as soon as donald trump feels like you are no longer useful to him, he will get rid of it and will feel nothing about it and i think that that is what we're seeing over and over and over again. >> and the problem for the president is that now just about everyone who has worked for him is a witness in the mueller probe. >> yeah, he is -- these bills for lawyers and his staffers have to be up to the millions of dollars by now. if you go into the white house now, you ar

dr. ronny jackson was at that podium for that elongated period of time, you wonder what part did the presidentplay in that? i've never seen a white house doctor -- and we've been on presidential trips and had several white house doctors, we would normally get a piece of paper that says this and this. and for him to talk about how physically fit this president is, that struck me as odd. it makes you wonder if ronny jackson was put up by the president to say that, as well. but this, in all of this, even though the president may have dictated these words, it is about his fitness for the office. mentally, physically, what have you. and what is he trying to hide if he had to dictate this in >> do you want to add anything on that? >> it's one thing in the course of a campaign to lie about something that just makes you look so small. now he's run up against something in this russia investigation where he's not going to be able to lie and get away with it when you're dealing with a special prosecutor and very skillful folks at exposing those lies. so his whole way of doing things, and it just undermin

dr. ronny jackson. the president wanted his personal physician to be the new head of the va. but that didn't work out and now we have confirmed with a white house official that there are interviews taking place, many of them at least we understand to take place over the course of this week, including at least one with the former representative, the republican from florida, jeff miller. this is a person that was initially vetted for this post as you see on your screen he serveds a republican congressman from florida for about 16 years. has since left congress, said he's a class ally of the president. he served on the president's national security team during the transition. also during the course of the campaign. he was formerly the head of the house veterans affairs committee. so this is someone that we know the president likes, that he thinks -- that he thinks highly of, whether he will be the next man for the job, well there are week could give ace better indication that that's going to be the case. >> and i know you'll be following it all. peter alexander, i'll see you bac

dr. ronny jackson who has been criticized not just by jon tester and the senate committee staff, includingublican staff on the committee, but by vice president pence's wife and her physician, who say that dr. jackson improperly violated the patient confidentiality of mike pence's wife. john kelly knows all of that and doesn't care about any of it. because john kelly has lied with just as much gusto about a member of the house of representatives. >> the congresswoman stood up. and in the long tradition of empty barrels making the most noise, stood up there in all of that and talked about how she was instrumental in getting the funding for that building, and mao she took care of her constituents because she got the money. and she just called up president obama. and on that phone call, he gave the money, the $20 million to build the building. and she sat down. and we were stunned, stunned that she had done it. even for someone that is that empty a barrel, we were stunned. >> someone whose that empty a barrel. when immediately every word of that was proven to be completely false, outright lie

dr. ronny jackson, who until days ago served as the president's personal physician, used that same phrase, "great genes," when discussing his physical. >> some people have, you know, just great genes. you know, i told the president that if he had a healthier diet over the last 20 years, he might live to be 200 years old, i don't know. >> reporter: the president nominated jackson to run the v.a., but amid reports of heavy drinking on the job and giving out prescription sleep aids, jackson withdrew. jackson is now facing an inquiry by the pentagon. as for dr. bornstein, he also claims his office was raided by trump staffers who were seizing the president's medical records. now, a spokesperson for a trump organization lawyer who was here when it went down, says that the handoff was cordial, peaceful and it was polite, and that dr. bornstein voluntarily handed over those documents. david? >> all right, tom llamas with us again tonight. tom, thank you. >>> and the new headline tonight about cambridge analytica, linked to the trump campaign, announcing it is filing for bankruptcy and shutting d

dr. ronny jackson considered for the spot, he took himself out of the running.dent did have a fairly accurate read on this, who would have the background to run on the agency of 375,000 employees, nearly $190 billion budget, it's a behemoth. do you think that that person should have military background, the two generals considered for the job? >> well, there's a tension here. we are serving the military, you would somebody who respect sxnsds the military. on the other hand, we're talking about big health care institutions. talking about big hospitals, big clinics, a big network. look, running a business is tough, running a health care business is tougher. it would be nice to have somebody who embodies both, the health care background and the military background, but you know, we run into the problem all the time with major universities, for example. if you look anywhere across the country, the university of texas, half of the budget is for the medical schools. we think about all the places where you go where you have a football team and lots of undergraduates. m

dr. jackson for a second -- >> a bad sign. >> let's talk about ronny jackson. the white house knew last fall about a potential breach of privacy incident involving jackson and the vice president's wife. she directed aides to tell john kelly about her concerns. and yet still the white house is angry at senator jon tester for sharing this information, these allegations against rear admiral jackson when he was up for v.a. secretary. although, apparently, tester did so with the blessing of the republican chairman of the committee, johnny isakson. so it seems like karen pence and vice president pence had issues with this guy, johnny isakson, the senator from georgia and republican had issued and jon tester is getting all the heat. >> i would say substantively, the ha-- the allegation is that ronny jackson violated the hippa -- the privacy law. the health privacy rights and laws of a patient which happens to be mrs. pence. but that is a gross violation for any doctor of any kind. and the fact that it is coming from the pence family and not coming from jon tester hims

dr. ronny jackson, nominated to be v.a. secretary, that didn't turn out so well.probably haven't forgotten that one yet. it is a curious case, i think, that we've ii doctors that are both say -- we have two doctors that are both saying this. >> and from the beginning, a new york character. the character in this reality show. >> straight out of central casting. >> let's talk about the chance of a mural sit down as they look like they're getting slimmer between the president and robert mueller whose team is investigating the russians and russian influence in the election. what about the chances this morning of a subpoena to get the president to sit down with robert mueller's team? >> it certainly seems, and cnn has reported, president trump has sort of turned against the idea of wanting to sit down with robert mueller. earlier he did, and then he was vascillating. now i think latest cnn reporting is that he sort of turned against it ever since that raid on michael cohen. and now he doesn't really want to sit down with mueller. if you read the questions that "the new

dr. ronnie jackson who was then the president's personal physician, authorizing the transfer of the records to the white house medical unit. sarah huckabee sanders this afternoon, the briefing saying, there's nothing really to see here, it's standard operating procedure. >> as a standard operating procedure for the new president, the white house medical unit took possession of the president's medical records. >> it was characterized as a raid. is that what happened in your understanding? >> that is not my understanding. >> we did not get an opportunity to ask that, if in the past the records had been trust dominic transferred, the president's security detail went into get the records or if they were merely transferred from the white house to the doctor's office. some people are describing this as a raid but she said, as far as i know, there's only one person describing it that way. >> another big topic, the white house is changing its statement on iran. this was seen as very significant at the time because the white house seemed to be saying, the iranians have a clandestine nuclear weapons

>> you've seen a lot of reports about former white house doctor ronny jackson and dr.ornstein position has been reading the news and seeing him in the news. and i think he feels a little bit left out. he would have liked to have had that job. and i think that he is thinking you know what, i've got nothing to lose right now. he has already told the press about specific medications that the president has taken, so he didn't feel like he is violating anymore rules at this important and he feels like ronny jackson is in the news and i have something to say as well. >> did he say that he expected this visit? he seems to have indicated by calling it a raid, saying he felt raped, that this was not something that he was aware of in advance. >> he was completely unaware. he and his wife were driving into the city from their home and were parking the car and they got a call from the young woman who answers the phone in their office to say that there are two men in the office, one was keith shiller, trump's long time bodyguard who had a top white house job at the time that he wen

dr. ronny jackson. after allegations that dr. johnson or jackson-- is it johnson or jackson? jackson?on. it doesn't matter how i pronounce his name. dr. jackson-- it's short for johnson-- was passing out bills at the white house, he withdrew from the nomination, and he won't return to his old job as trump's physician. he wants to spend more time with his family, lying about how much they weigh. but there's an obvious candidate ready to step in. trump's long-time personal physician-- hello! and stolen stereo equipment dealer, harold bornstein. bornstein-- bornstein! became famous after he wrote a one-page letter vouching for trump's fitness that stated, "if elected, mr. trump, i can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency." i don't think donald trump is even the healthiest individual named donald trump! ( laughter ) after that, bornstein told "the new york times" that trump takes propecia, a drug often prescribed to stimulate hair growth in men. now, taking hair-growth drugs is not something trump should be embarrassed about. he should be a

dr. ronnie jackson any way you look at it.d republicans saying that she is the right choice. so what's the problem? >> she has democrats and republicans saying she's the wrong choice. while there are no question about her qualifications or, there's a virtual certainty that sort of laying out qualifications is going to be a messier process than it has been for president trump's other nominees to senior position. the basic issue is she was involved in the interrogations during the bush administration that the public has nephew seen in full detail in light of day. to the extent that it will require what her role is in the programs and what the programs looked like operationally, that could get very uncomfortable for her and the agency. that's the other consideration. it's not just can she make it through. like a lot of the president nominations, it could be be ugly but more likely than not to make it through, but is it worth the process. >> from the administration's standpoint, the first woman to run the agency. it's the exact op
