7 OUTLETSOutlets report that Trump withdrew Casey Means as his surgeon general nominee, named Nicole Saphier as her replacement, and criticized Sen. Bill Cassidy over the stalled confirmation. Left-leaning outlets center Trump's call for Louisiana Republicans to vote Cassidy out over his role in the stalled nomination. Center outlets pair the switch and Trump's criticism of Cassidy with senators' concerns about Means's vaccine views. Right-leaning outlets stress Trump's attacks on Cassidy over the delay, with one also invoking his impeachment vote and primary standing and another casting him as obstructing a health movement.
