Jim Jordan is the apogee of rot in the republican party. Poster boy of "I can skirt responsibility by denying reality". Truth is, the party ceased any moral high ground since Reagan launched his presidential campaign in Philadelphia, MS. This theater of the absurd is not an anomaly, it is the death throes of a political party that once stood for something. That Jim Jordan is the best they can do speaks volumes about a party who has misplaced the script on the responsibility of governing. As to how Ohioans blew past credible allegations and elected him to congress, just take a gander at the gerrymandered state map. OSU ignored the Wrestlers because they weren't a cash cow the football the football is/was. I feel for the wrestlers hung out to dry because the mere specter of a male preying upon male students is normally an isolated incident, but anything more than a dozen and denied is a conspiracy or cover-up. The mere fact that trumpanzee softened up congress enough to ignore lawful subpoenas is proof of guilt to me. That the party formerly known as the "moral" party has abdicated just plain sanity is enough to make sure the bloodbath of 2024 becomes a reality. Is it wrong to miss the kangaroo hearings of 2023?

YES! We can't let a leader of the "ongoing coup" become speaker. Near time for an emergency decree? OSU must be a pretty f'd up place. And just a little aside - so is Ohio. I am so pissed off at Ohioan's becoming Magats after Obama, and Biden, bailed their asses out in 2009 with a huge influx of tarp money as they were an important swing state; proof that Magatism causes dementia.
