Texas law enforcement officials released previously unseen body cam footage of Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas) swearing at police officers after being handcuffed.
In the video from last month, the state police officers are seen putting handcuffs on the former White House physician at a rodeo in White Deer, near Amarillo.
While it is unclear what led to Jackson’s outburst, he is seen spewing filth at the officers in the newly released 14-minute clip from the dash cam of the police vehicle.
“You are a f—ing full-on d—,” he says, before adding, “You better recalculate, motherf—–!”
