President Donald Trump withdrew his nomination of Casey Means for surgeon general after key Senate Republicans declined to support her. Means, a doctor without an active medical license, was poised to elevate Trump's "Make America Healthy Again" message. Trump announced Dr. Nicole Saphier, a radiologist and frequent Fox News commentator, as his new nominee. Saphier is director of breast imaging at Memorial Sloan Kettering Monmouth. Means' nomination stalled after her February confirmation hearing, where senators questioned her past criticisms of birth control pills and routine childhood vaccines.
