Both picks were bound to be inflammatory:
Perry’s phone was seized by the FBI as part of its Jan. 6 probe, while Jackson has faced allegations of drinking on duty and harassing staff when he was the White House physician.
Rep. Chrissy Houlahan (D-Pa.), a Democratic member of the panel, sent Johnson a letter earlier this week urging him to reverse the appointments.
Good luck picking any Republicans that aren’t complete trash.

I don’t know anything about Perry, but Ronny Jackson is such a massive piece of shit.
In May 2018, after receiving 12 complaints about Jackson’s conduct, the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General (OIG) opened an investigation. The investigation stalled from October 2018 to August 2019 because the Trump White House Counsel’s Office objected to the investigation and considered invoking executive privilege, but ultimately did not.[22][53]
OIG investigators interviewed Jackson and 78 witnesses.[22][54] The OIG noted that its interview of Jackson “was limited in scope and unproductive” because lawyers in the White House Counsel’s office insisted upon participating in the interview and “instructed Jackson not to answer any questions concerning events after his appointment as the Physician to the President in July 2013.”[22]
In March 2021, the OIG issued its report.[22] It documented Jackson’s inappropriate interactions with subordinates and heavy drinking while on duty.[55]The OIG concluded, by a preponderance of the evidence, that Jackson had “made sexual and denigrating statements about one of his female medical subordinates to another of his subordinates”; that Jackson “drank alcohol with his subordinates in Manila, became intoxicated, and, while in his hotel room, engaged in behavior that witnesses described as screaming and yelling, and behavior that some complained might wake the President”; and that Jackson took Ambien (a sleep medication) during official travel, “raising concerns about his potential incapacity to provide proper medical care during this travel.”[22][56] In addition to findings that Jackson had “engaged in inappropriate conduct involving the use of alcohol” during two presidential trips, the report also found that he “disparaged, belittled, bullied, and humiliated subordinates”; “created a negative WHMU work environment”; and “failed to conduct himself in an exemplary manner and made an unfavorable impact on the overall WHMU command climate.”[22][57] On March 2, 2021, the inspector general briefed members of Congress on its review.
After the report was issued, Jackson said that the allegations were a “political hit job because I stood with President Trump” and that they “resurrected those same false allegations from my years with the Obama Administration because I have refused to turn my back on President Trump.”[54][58]

Could not agree more
Rep. Ami Bera (D-Calif.) said he will give Jackson “the benefit of the doubt, because I know him very well”
It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.
This is the guy who was drunk at work handing out pills left and right and lied obviously about the health of Trump to curry favor.
And this Dem isn’t going to object to him viewing and making decisions about top secret information because they’re fucking buddies! 🤦
Yes, let’s blame the one, single Dem for this.
The one single Dem who knows full well how awful Ronnie Jackson is and doesn’t have any party whip pressure but STILL lets him off the hook because of cronyism?
Yeah, let’s blame that guy and others for their dereliction of duty when it comes to opposing this absolutely absurd appointment.
