Fast forward to the present. Remember that grandstanding fraud of a congressman, who tried to play to trump's base by embarrassing himself on national television when he was checked on the law by Rod Rosenstein? Well, as it turns out, he might have a little Penn State like issue himself.
"Right-wing Ohio Republican Congressman Jim Jordan’s sexual abuse scandal is getting even worse for him and it could cost him a seat in Congress and his party control of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Jordan has been accused of being aware that a team doctor was sexually abusing athletes while he was a wrestling coach at the Ohio State University (OSU). He is also accused of overlooking the charges and trying to cover them up instead of putting a stop to it. Although Jordan is not accused of any abuse himself, several former OSU athletes have said that Jordan of covered up the team doctor’s abuse." [More]
This is why people in glass houses should never throw stones. And they certainly should never try to draw attention to themselves and their house. Sadly for them we will always find out what's lurking inside. Those skeletons always seem to find a way to come tumbling out of the closet.
trump, of course, is standing by his man. (He always seems to stand by folks accused of sexual misdeeds. Hmmm, why is that?)
"Mr Rosenstein, why did you hide information from this congress?"
Mr Jordan, why did you hide information from the American people and the people of Ohio?
On a happier note, Scott Pruitt, probably one of the most corrupt individuals to ever come to Washington (and that's saying something) resigned today.
That cheering you hear is from the thousands of EPA workers all over the country who couldn't wait to see that charlatan hit the door. He made a mockery of the agency that he was supposed to lead, and he allegedly used it as his own personal ATM machine.
trump, the man who promised to "drain the swamp" in Washington---- but who has been restocking it with his own parasites, accepted Pruitt's resignation, but not before praising the job Pruitt did.
"I have accepted the resignation of Scott Pruitt as the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. Within the Agency Scott has done an outstanding job, and I will always be thankful to him for this."
trump will be replacing this charlatan with another: Andrew Wheeler, a man who is a former lobbyist for the coal industry. The coal industry! And he will be leading the EPA.
America, you deserve better. Or, maybe not.
