Today Snickering Jim was attacking CNN for., wait for it...... checking sources. You would think he would want the media to actually investigate instead of just making things up, but apparently CNN checking sources gets Jim in a lather.


Checking sources or trolling for dirt. They apparently contacted all his former staffers and interns.


Wonder how much money is changing hands as well?

Are you also 20:48? You sound not so bright. Also in angry denial. The kind of denial in which you know your side is in the wrong, but you’re doubling down, by gum.

The motivations of his original accuser are becoming more clear....

The former Ohio State University wrestler who has accused Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan of ignoring sexual misconduct at the hands of a school doctor told university officials in June that his “intent” was to obtain a settlement for alleged victims of the abuse.

“Our intent is to expeditiously reach a negotiated settlement, without conflict, that compensates the victims for the trauma they have suffered because of this sex abuse, deals with the individuals that knew of this situation, but chose to do nothing about it, and corrects the atmosphere that may still exist at OSU, and therefore would allow this to happen again in the future,” reads a June 26 email that the former wrestler, Mike DiSabato, sent to attorneys working for OSU as well as Democratic Ohio state Sen. Joe Schiavoni.

The email did not mention Jordan, but a week later, on July 3, NBC News published an article that relied heavily on allegations from DiSabato that Jordan was aware of but turned a blind eye to the behavior of Richard Strauss, a physician for the OSU athletic program in the 1980s and 1990s.

DiSabato linked in his June 26 email to a video testimonial of himself and two other Strauss victims who claimed the doctor inappropriately touched them during physicals. Jordan is not mentioned in the video.

DiSabato has given numerous media interviews accusing Jordan of falsely denying that he knew nothing about sexual abuse allegations from wrestlers.

Jordan, a conservative Republican who is vying for the House speaker role, has said that he never heard of abuse committed by Strauss. He has said that he would have taken action to protect his wrestlers if he had.

DiSabato’s email to OSU attorneys was circulated to reporters on Wednesday by Bret Adams, a sports agent who has been an outspoken critic of DiSabato. DiSabato was arrested in February on telephonic harassment charges stemming from an incident involving Adams.

In an email to reporters, Adams called DiSabato’s June 26 email an “extortion letter.”

Intent: getting money from OSU. NBC noticed that Jordan was an assistant coach and highlighted that. Jordan flubbed his response.

BTW, Ohio papers have been detailing the investigation, including Jordan's denial, since April. DiSabato didn't start any of this.

Yes, people who were wronged by those in a position of authority should be compensated for the mental and physical pain they have suffered due to negligence. Thanks for sharing this. It helps make the point that by Coach Jordan laughing off the red flags raised by some of his athletes, he provided liability to himself and OSU.

Wes Goodman, who used to work for Jim Jordan.

“Another conservative with Ohio ties told cleveland.com that Goodman engaged in predatory behavior toward younger men after leaving Jordan's office, sending inappropriate material and propositioning them via text message and Facebook messenger.

The conservative operative said he'd target college kids who wanted to have him as a mentor and were scared to report his sexual advances because they didn't want to damage their own careers. A former co-worker shared screenshots of messages Goodman sent him that the operative likened to the lewd texts that derailed the congressional career of New York's Anthony Weiner.

"It was suggestive 'I am here in my underwear' kinds of stuff," the longtime GOP operative recalled.”

#SoapyJim on Lad-Fondlin' Wes:

"U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan endorsed Goodman for his 'character and passion.'"

House Speaker Paul Ryan says the House Ethics Committee won't look at wrestlers' claims against Rep. Jim Jordan because the alleged events occurred before he was in office:

So Randy Bryce, all those arrests are a-OK.
