Jim Jordan defends Patel's Olympic partying, citing security focus' of trip
thehill.com
... Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) on Tuesday dismissed criticism against FBI Director Kash Patel for partying in the locker room with the U.S. men's hockey team following their gold medal win at the Olympics.
Jordan brushed off concern when asked by CNN's Manu Raju whether the House Judiciary Committee, which Jordan chairs, should "look into" Patel's actions.
"I think he was over there because of security," Jordan said, citing the upcoming 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. "The FBI is, I'm sure, going to be involved in making sure things are secure for the spectators, for the athletes, for people who are coming there. From my understanding, he's doing all that."
"There's a security focus, I think that's there and, oh by the way, our team just won in this amazing game," he added.
Patel's alleged use of government-owned private jets for personal travel reentered the spotlight over the weekend after a viral video showed him drinking beers with players in the Team USA locker room following their 2-1 overtime victory against Canada on the final day of the Winter Olympics. ...
So... Rep Jordan "thinks" there might be a security focus there.
OK, then.

Donald Trump had a habit of walking into the dressing rooms of teen beauty queens (2016)

... As owner of the Miss Teen USA pageant franchise, Donald Trump felt entitled to walk into the dressing rooms of aspiring young beauty queens.
Four women who competed in the 1997 Miss Teen USA pageant told BuzzFeed that Trump would often show up in their dressing room unannounced while the contestants, some as young as 15, were changing.
"I remember putting on my dress really quick because I was like, Oh my god, there's a man in here'," Mariah Billado, former Miss Vermont Teen USA, told BuzzFeed reporters. She remembers Trump's response -- that he said something along the lines of "Don't worry, ladies, I've seen it all before."
Tasha Dixon, the former Miss Teen Arizona, competed in the 2001 Teen USA pageant. She was 18 at the time and remembers how Trump would "come strolling right in" when girls were "half-naked, changing into [their] bikinis ... .some girls were topless. Other girls were naked," according to an interview with the CBS station in Los Angeles.
"There was no second to put a robe on or any sort of clothing," Dixon said. She said that was most of the girls' first introduction to Trump. She said that Trump's behavior put her and the other pageant contestants in a "very physically vulnerable position," and that his entrance was usually accompanied by "the pressure of the people that worked for him telling us to go fawn all over him, go walk up to him, talk to him, get his attention."
Trump apparently considered access to the women's changing rooms one of the perks of owning the beauty pageant franchises MissUniverse and Miss Teen USA, which he bought in 1996. ...
