Jim Jordan Has A Long History Of Protecting Predators

Republican U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan was among those questioned under oath this month after release of a new documentary about the sexual abuse of Ohio State University athletes decades ago by a team doctor, according to a court filing. Jordan's deposition Friday came in a federal lawsuit brought by former student athletes against the university over its failure to stop abuse by Dr. Richard Strauss, who died in 2005. Hundreds say they were abused by Strauss, who worked at the school from 1978 to 1998. Many ex-wrestlers over the years have accused Jordan, who served as assistant coach of the Ohio State wrestling team from 1986 to 1994, of knowing about the abuse and failing to act. The 10-term congressman's office had declined to confirm Friday's deposition, but it reiterated Jordan's denial of any awareness of Strauss' crimes or the cover-up.

If you ever wondered why this loser is known as "Gym" Jordan, now you know.

Another prize pick from the MAGAt garbage pile.

Hundreds of victims, all the while "knowing about the abuse and failing to act."

The guilty are so useful to Republicans.

The entire Republican party is a bunch of pedophiles.

... and the GOP always seems to be the first to accuse Democrats of grooming children.
