A half-dozen former wrestlers at Ohio State, where GOP Rep. Jim Jordan once coached, said they were regularly harassed by men in their training facility.

New allegations in the Ohio State University sexual abuse scandal are threatening to intensify the political firestorm facing its onetime assistant wrestling coach, powerful GOP Rep. Jim Jordan.

A half-dozen ex-wrestlers told POLITICO they were regularly harassed in their training facility by sexually aggressive men who attended the university or worked there. The voyeurs would masturbate while watching the wrestlers shower or sit in the sauna, or engage in sexual acts in the areas where the athletes trained, the former wrestlers said.
=============================================================
For his 8 year tenure as assistant coach, 'he would have had to know about it' yet did or said nothing.

I wonder if Jordan's wife knows he is a latent gay? Republicans ........

If a pervert in the WH is acceptable to Republicans, what's the big whoop?

Powerful conservatives have needs that will be satisfied, one way or another...

I believe most men are bisexual whether they are aware of it & act on it or not. A college wresting team training facility would likely be the acid test, producing erections inside the jockstraps of even the most hardcore heterosexual men as they watched well-endowed young men get all sweaty in their brief uniforms from extreme physical exertion. Jordan, a staunch Republican, would of course deny ever getting aroused during his 8 year tenure there. Hypocrite & liar, just like Trump.

You're projecting.
 
Jordan becomes the left's target d'jour (he must be asking about things they don't like) so may the character assassinations begin.

Definitely sounds like he's the real victim in this sexual abuse scandal.

So have many others that have come to naught, ended up being invented for political purposes.

When actual criminal charges are filed, I'll be less skeptical, and even less skeptical should there be convictions on those charges.

Such are the dangers of constantly crying wolf. Eventually the public becomes skeptical.

Yeah but Hillary is different...
 
Funny how this comes up now, 23 years after Jordan left there. Just coincidental, I'm sure.
 
lol...well, at least some of the folks here are sticking to script: "Horrible if their guy does it, but fine if our guy does." Uh huh... ;)
 
Principles Jordan has relied on when going after other people (Comey, Mueller, Rosenstein, Sessions):

1. You're responsible for what happens on your own watch.
2. You're responsible for monitoring the people around you.
3. It's immoral to remain silent about the truth of an accusation.
4. Any complete disclosure is malicious and corrupt.
5. Any delay in disclosure is deliberate concealment.
6. The penalty for these offenses should be prosecution or termination.

Oh dear. Are some college wrestlers in on the Vast Liberal Conspiracy to victimize you? You poor poor conservatives. You make up half the country and somehow you're always the victim. My heart breaks for you.

Just pointing out the political convenience. They've had years and years to bring this up.

Ex-Ohio State Wrestlers: Entire Program Was Toxic While Jim Jordan Was There

More former Ohio State wrestlers and coaches are speaking out about the culture of the team when they were on it with Rep. Jim Jordan, an assistant coach there from 1986 to 1994. On Thursday, a fifth ex-wrestler, former UFC heavyweight champion Mark Coleman, told the Wall Street Journal that there was no way the Ohio Republican and Freedom Caucus member didn’t know about the sexual abuse being done to athletes by the team doctor, the late Richard Strauss. Today, Politico published a report that described the entire wrestling program as toxic.
===============================================
A college wrestling team is a small, compact organization. Gyms, weight rooms, showers. It defies credulity that Jordan could have spent 8 years as a coaching assistant & not know what was going on.

If there was any doubt the guy has zero character it's plain as day now.

Until they wind up face to face with other powerful conservatives who will stomp a mudhole in their ass.
Tip of the hat to our conservative warriors in the military...:beat :gunsmilie :2usflag:

:lamo

Just for Hillary the left wants to invent two differing standards of law and criminality, so she, and the rest of their side, can escape Scott free.

This is the man who called Rosenstein a liar. Isn't that a laugh.
