Jim Jordan (R-OH) has a Joe Paterno Problem

Rep. Jim Jordan, the powerful Republican congressman from Ohio, is being accused by former wrestlers he coached more than two decades ago at Ohio State University of failing to stop the team doctor from molesting them and other students.

The insufferable Teabaggin' FreeDumb Caucus clown is seemingly wrapped up in a big investigation being conducted by Ohio State University. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

He has been acting nuttier than usual, I figured it had to do with his big orange spank daddy and the Mueller/Rosenstein investigation.

Two more former Ohio State wrestlers came forward Thursday to assert that Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) certainly did know about the rampant sexual abuse carried out by the team doctor while Jordan was the assistant coach, despite his denials.

This brings the total up to five of Jordan’s former wrestlers accusing him of lying.

A seventh former Ohio State University wrestler said Saturday that he believes Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) knew about inappropriate behavior that allegedly took place in the school’s athletic department three decades ago, as two more former team members came to Jordan’s defense.

Needless to say, the GOP will protect and defend sexual predators (and their enablers) in their midst.

It is about time the FBI fights back and leaks to the public any and every scandal associated with the Freedumb caucus. Time to say enough is enough.

A former Ohio State University wrestling coach asked two of Rep. Jim Jordan’s accusers to recant their statements, NBC News reported Wednesday night, in a development that could further complicate the Ohio Republican’s long-shot bid to become House speaker.

^^Goes to prove that time and time again, politicians will attempt a coverup that initially only strengthens the suspicions. Goodbye speakership, hello prayer breakfasts.
