“President Trump announced Wednesday he planned to nominate Dr. Casey Means to serve as his surgeon general after he withdrew the nomination of his previous choice, Dr. Janette Nesheiwat. … Mr. Trump said Dr. Nesheiwat, a former Fox News contributor, would work with Mr. Kennedy ‘in another capacity’ at the health and human services department. Dr. Nesheiwat was scheduled to appear before the Senate health committee on Thursday, but her nomination ran into trouble on two fronts. Laura Loomer, a conservative activist whom Mr. Trump has listened to on other personnel matters, called for a new surgeon general nominee, arguing Dr. Nesheiwat ‘is not ideologically aligned’ with the president. Reports have also raised questions about the veracity of Dr. Nesheiwat’s résumé.” (05/07/25)
