https://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2019/11/11/lawsuit-rep-jim-jordan-knew-about-strauss-sexual-abuse-during-coaching-tenure-at-osu

Jordan was there as a student in the early-mid 80s. He then worked there as a coach until 1994 or so.

Strauss arrived in the late 70s and was dismissed due to his conduct around 1997.

At least 177 students were sexually assaulted roughly 1500 times. Over 40 staff knew about it.

A few have now come forward to say they told Jordan about it.

Jordan was there for more than ten years and knew nothing about it?

He fits right in with the GOP: he's a liar.

no question.

Only in America 2019 could someone be bulletproof on something like this in such a high profile position ONLY because he is a Republican.

The national outrage in which one scandalous incident after another would have been greeted only a few years ago is now accepted with blase indiffence. The citizens just shrug their shoulders and get back to enjoying the hard won life they inherited with total disregard to what it means to future of the nation.

its crashing in all around them and they just fluff it off on the "they are both the same" mindset.

The path we are rapidly descending on is NOT going to end well, but people just don't get it.

if there IS video, it's been doctored. Deny, deny, deny. It's how they live their lives.
