Police video released Monday shows U.S. Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas being taken to the ground by officers, profanely berating them and threatening to report them to the governor during an altercation at a rodeo last month.
In body camera video, the former White House physician can be seen approaching a group of people surrounding a 15-year-old girl who authorities have said was having seizures. The two-term Republican congressman later has what looks like an argument with one of the people attending to the teenager before she is put on a stretcher.
“I’m going to call the governor tomorrow and I’m going to talk to him about this , because this is ridiculous,” Jackson can later be heard telling a state trooper, his voice raised. State police released the video footage after Jackson defended his actions on social media last week. He posted that local authorities near Amarillo prevented him “from giving medical care in a potentially life-threatening situation due to overly aggressive and incompetent actions” by officers on the scene.
