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 university announced in April that it was investigating accusations that Dr. Richard Strauss, who died in 2005, abused team members when he was the team doctor from the mid-1970s to late 1990s.

Jordan, who was assistant wrestling coach at the university from 1986 to 1994, has repeatedly said he knew nothing of the abuse until former students began speaking out this spring. His denials, however, have been met with skepticism and anger from some former members of the wrestling team.

Three former wrestlers told NBC News that it was common knowledge that Strauss showered regularly with the students and inappropriately touched them during appointments, and said it would have been impossible for Jordan to be unaware; one wrestler said he told Jordan directly about the abuse.


Slimy GOP and and its slimier congressmen!

I did not understand - please give reference. Did he go after Comey to hide his complicity?

Over and over: these no-morals Republicans choose comfort and convenience over protecting those who need them and doing what is right.

So much for "destroying" Comey!

Posted this in the wrong thread. Meant to post it here.




“I considered Jim Jordan a friend,” Mike DiSabato, a former wrestler, said. “But at the end of the day, he is absolutely lying if he says he doesn’t know what was going on.”

When a GOP (party of family values) congressman is credibly accused of facilitating sexual abuse at a university and you’re the GOP, do you:

A. Demand his resignation?
B. Start a campaign TODAY to make him Speaker of the House?

The answer is of course, B.
