The left’s personal destruction machine turns its focus on Jim Jordan

Thomas Lifson  "Jim Jordan has been one of the most effective investigators in pursuing the cabal that weaponized the FBI and intelligence agencies to fight the candidacy and then the presidency of Donald Trump.  Rather than answer him with facts and documents, the left is out to destroy him, which tells anyone paying attention that he is on to something.
"This campaign began to tar him with scandal, no matter how far-fetched.  George Rasley explains at Conservative HQ:
NBC News published an article on Tuesday, quoting Mike DiSabato and Dunyasha Yetts, two former Ohio State University wrestlers, claiming that when Jim Jordan worked as assistant wrestling coach at OSU, he ignored sexual abuse carried out by a university physician named Richard Strauss. ...
Jordan, a two-time NCAA wrestling champion, denied back in April that he knew about Strauss's alleged activities.  But Yetts told NBC News that Jordan was either a "liar" or taking part in a cover-up of the abuse.  DiSabato called Jordan a "coward."
Jordan, a leading House conservative and candidate for Speaker, has vehemently denied the allegations, saying that he was never told of sexual abuse against athletes during his stint at OSU, which stretched from 1986 to 1994.  He said he would have taken action had he known about any abuse by Strauss, who killed himself in 2005. ...
And interestingly enough, looking through the articles about the allegations you can't find any mention of head coach Russ Hellickson's name, who would have been the logical person to whom allegations of abuse should have been reported, if they occurred.


    "Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller checked out the bona fides of the two accusers and found ample reason to doubt their integrity:" . . .
