Ronny Jackson, R-Texas, the White House physician-turned-House lawmaker, is demanding in a new letter that President Biden submit to a drug test before his Thursday 'CNN Presidential Debate' with former President Trump. Jackson made his request for a 'clinically validated drug test' in a three-page message to Biden and his physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor.
