I just caught a glimpse of Rep. Maxine Waters saying to old Gym Jordan something that needed to be said since he thinks he knows more than a doctor and worries about his freedom because he has to wear a mask, (I presume).  He needed to be called down years ago. ...

Former House Speaker John Boehner has been on quite a roll lately as he plugs his book On the House: A Washington Memoir. In a clip from the audio version of his book, Boehner told Sen. Ted Cruz to go fuck himself, which, as Cruz’s former Princeton roommate Craig Mazin can...

While I totally agree that a certain new Representative from Georgia should at least be stripped of her committees — and realistically should be expelled from the House, although we know that will not that happen —  that does not go far enough. Everyone in the House and the Senate...

I live in Oregon. My Thanksgiving is likely to be just my wife and me eating either a vegan roast or, if we’re too lazy to turn the oven on (and that’s a distinct possibility), perhaps takeout Thai food. But if we were going to have lots of people over...

Gym Jordan, who famously did not (allegedly, anyway) intervene on behalf of student athletes when he coached wrestling at THE Ohio State University, appears all too willing to put young men in harm’s way for a little coronavirus-enhanced sportsing this fall. America needs college football. — Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan)...

Former Ohio State wrestler Adam DiSabato made headlines this week when he claimed, during a public hearing, that Republican Rep.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer recently bemoaned the encroachment of Gym Jordan’s jock sweat on the city of Cleveland. His presence there was the result of a “hideously gerrymandered” district that was created prior to the 2012 election, and his constituents there are presumably beside themselves with revulsion. And now the man whom...

So if the impeachment hearings have proved anything, it’s that congressional Republicans — after endless (and fruitless) Benghazi and email server investigations — don’t really care about official misconduct after all. Kind of like the deficit only mattered when a Democrat was in the White House. Now high crimes and misdemeanors...

Pedophilia and sexual assault have never been deal-breakers within the GOP. Neither have the scumbags who protect them. Despite the fact that as a wrestling coach at Ohio State University, Rep. Jim Jordan allegedly knew the team doctor was sexually assaulting kids on the team, according to multiple former athletes, he did nothing to stop them....

After to years of looking incredibly like Inspector Clouseau while they obstructed themselves while they had total control of the government, the GOP in the House has gone back to the more familiar and comfortable position of obstructing Democrats instead. But there seems to be something a itte bit reckless...

Now that the Mueller report is completed there’s no need to harass and bully him anymore? Republican Rep. Jim Jordan was on ABC’s This Week this morning to send a message to Trump cultists and anyone who just woke up from a two-year coma. Seems Mueller was revered and respected by...

Man, oh man! Jim Jordan (R-Blowhio) was something to behold today in his non pay per view Trumper tantrum directed at FBI agent Peter Strzok. Mostly, what I thought was how much I would have liked to see Jordan in action in a courtroom, striding around the courtroom screaming, “I'M...
