  1. Ohio representative and former Ohio State University wrestling coach Jim Jordan aided and abetted in the university's cover-up of sexual abuse within the program, a former team captain said in front of Ohio state legislators on Wednesday. "Jim Jordan called me crying, groveling, begging me to go against my brother, begging me, crying for a half-hour," DiSabato said Wednesday. "That’s the kind of cover-up that’s going on there." Adam DiSabato, captain of the team during the early 1990s, told members of the Ohio House Civil Justice Committee that Jordan and other officials ignored former Ohio State doctor Richard Strauss's sexual abuse of wrestlers from 1979 to 1997. DiSabato said that Jordan and other team officials knew about open-shower facilities that facilitated sexual harassment and abuse of team wrestlers. Jordan has previously denied the allegation. Wednesday's testimony is a part of a hearing on legislation that would permit survivors of Strauss's abuse to sue the university for damages. Currently, the statute of limitations disallows them from doing so. A university study found that Strauss abused at least 177 people during his tenure as the wrestling team's doctor. Strauss was never charged and died by suicide in 2005. A former Ohio State wrestler told the university's lawyers in 2018 that, “Based on testimony from victim athletes from each of the aforementioned varsity sports, we estimate that Strauss sexually assaulted and/or raped a minimum of 1,500/2,000 athletes at OSU.” In November 2019, NBC News reported that around 350 men were suing Ohio State, saying they were abused. DiSabato and his brother, Mike, were among the initial whistleblowers that prompted the university to launch an investigation in 2018. Jordan, who has represented Ohio's 4th congressional district since 2007, was once a contender for speaker of the House. He has denied all wrongdoing. President Donald Trump is among those who have spoken out in favor of the embattled legislator. https://www.si.com/more-sports/2020/02/12/jim-jordan-accused-cover-up-sexual-abuse-ohio-state
  2. Jim Jordan has said the victims of Dr. Strauss, who, they claim, repeatedly sexually abused them, are lying.
  3. Is this what all this woke nonsense is about? Deflecting from this?
  4. Former Attorney General Bill Barr said Tuesday that he'd "bet” an indictment of Donald Trump is near. “This is not a case of the Department of Justice conducting a witch hunt,” Barr, an ex-Trump Cabinet official, said on "CBS Mornings" in reference to special counsel Jack Smith's investigation into classified documents found at the former president's private Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. "In fact, they approached this very delicately and with deference to the president," adding that if he hadn't "jerked them around for a year and a half," he thinks this would have "gone nowhere." https://themessenger.com/politics/former-ag-bill-barr-would-bet-trump-will-be-indicted Nah, we will just hold elections as usual
  5. He used to be the future. In the field of Republicans running for president, a growing group headed by Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, there’s nobody quite like Chris Christie. He was Trump before Trump. He was DeSantis before DeSantis. Pugnacious, unapologetic and politically incorrect, he was before “Bridgegate” a total GOP “rock star.” He talked big, and won big, too — and not just in a swing state but in a blue state. Now he barely registers in polls, running behind Tim Scott, Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy, and level with two current governors who aren’t even running (yet?). Still, with the announcement of his candidacy, the former two-term “Boss” of New Jersey, former 2016 White House hopeful and former longtime Trump confidant and pal instantly becomes maybe the most compelling challenger of them all. https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/06/06/chris-christie-55-things-00100058
  6. You guys are the ones passing laws that violate the First Amendment. That's fascist
  7. Sure, more of my tax dollars going to brain wash religious kids
  8. Oklahoma authorities approved a Catholic-led bid to open the country’s first publicly funded religious charter school, in a landmark decision that is expected to spur litigation over constitutional limits between church and state. The split vote from the Oklahoma Statewide Virtual Charter School Board on Monday caps months of debate over government support for sectarian education that has divided the state’s educators and elected Republicans, including Gov. Kevin Stitt and Attorney General Gentner Drummond. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/06/05/oklahoma-approves-public-religious-charter-school-00100269
  9. No one should be above the law. Basically Trump supporters want immunity because he is a candidate for president. That's not how the rule of law works
  10. Actually, the first amendment is being abused. But no big deal to you, everything is permissible for The Party #creeping fascism
  11. Ok, more gaslighting. I'll just confront that with facts. You believe the pathological liar, cheat, sexual abuser Trump. That's who you are standing up for. If a person, any person, has some evidence bearing on a case, you use it. Yes, you actually can keep posting Meuller, no one is stopping you, but you
  12. That recording of Trump bragging about having documents makes it a violation of Espionage Act. That's important because then you can get a trial in DC. Easy to pick a jury there Lock him up!
  13. Republicans, right-wing judges and MAGA activists have set out to trample on free speech and individual rights in the name of battling “wokeism.” If they don’t like what teachers say about history, gag them. If they don’t like certain books, ban them. If they don’t like a corporation defending LGBTQ rights, retaliate against it. Their crusade has become an expression of not only white Christian nationalism but of contempt for the Constitution and the First Amendment. But last week, U.S. District Judge Thomas L. Parker, appointed by President Donald Trump, stood up to the thought police and the MAGA bullies in striking down the so-called drag queen ban (the Adult Entertainment Act) in Tennessee. Parker began with an ode to the First Amendment: “Freedom of speech is not just about speech. It is also about the right to debate with fellow citizens on self-government, to discover the truth in the marketplace of ideas, to express one’s identity, and to realize self-fulfillment in a free society.” He continued, “That freedom is of first importance to many Americans such that the United States Supreme Court has relaxed procedural requirements for citizens to vindicate their right to freedom of speech, while making it harder for the government to regulate it.” And the Tennessee statute impermissibly tried to regulate free speech, he found. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/06/06/republicans-woke-court/ And Parker also found the law “targets the viewpoint of gender identity — particularly those who wish to impersonate a gender that is different from the one with which they are born.” This is prohibited “content-based, viewpoint-based regulation on speech.” Republicans insist there is no such thing as gender identity other than gender determined at birth. That’s not a fact, as the MAGA censors insist; that’s a viewpoint. And it is impermissible to ban other viewpoints. That, Parker underscores, is what a free society is all about.
  14. That would stop Trump from ruining the GOP's chances in 2024 as he wouldn't be able to split the GOP vote
  15. Nope, just pointing out you are the one believing a liar. Gaslighting is trying to get someone to believe they are stupid, insane, mislead or ignorant instead of making a serious argument But the British spy thing only came to light after the investigation was started and had no role in starting the investigation at all. Trump still had a business relationship with Putin during the campaign Trump's team met with the Russians to get help in the election Manafort being hired had nothing to do with any dossier
  16. Oh, ya sure. It's more true to say you are repeating Trump's lies and I'm not. That's what is really going on.
  17. Ukraine attacking north and south of Bakhmut. Encirclement move? The Bakhmut pocket? Total speculation, but if Russia spent all those lives and treasure taking the place only to have it surrounded, that would be a serious demoralizing situation From the Washington Post: Some U.S. officials think the Ukrainian counteroffensive is underway, pointing to territorial gains north and south of Bakhmut, as well as strikes deep behind Russian lines that they see as part of a gradual launch of the operation. They note that a successful offensive may look very different from conventional operations involving armored columns that seek to penetrate enemy ground. It may involve, instead, what U.S. officials describe as modern maneuver warfare, something they say is already being enabled by recent Western training and arms supplies and which includes expanded artillery fire, probing attacks, and sabotage or partisan activity behind enemy lines. They hope such actions will force Russian troops to make mistakes and provide Ukrainian forces opportunities to advance.
  18. Fine, I'll just respond with, the Mueller report wasn't needed to convince me of what my eyes and ears already told me. Russia very much wanted Trump to win, and that Trump wanted Russia's help.
  19. Scholar and activist Cornel West announced Monday he’s running as a presidential candidate for the People’s Party. “I have decided to run for truth and justice, which takes the form of running for president of the United States as a candidate for the People’s Party,” West said in a video announcement on Twitter. “I enter for the quest for truth. I enter for the quest of justice. And the presidency is just one vehicle we pursue that truth and justice.” https://www.politico.com/news/2023/06/05/cornel-west-president-00100206
  20. Again, the insults. I read fine. Mueller found they worked together, they both wanted the same thing, a Trump win, but that the laws really were not broke to the point of were a sitting president could be charged. I don't care if Trump working with Putin is not technaically a crime, it's beyond wrong for an American politician to accept help from that murderous dictator. You obviously care more about winning than winning fairly or in. away that serves the national interest https://time.com/5610317/mueller-report-myths-breakdown/. "While Mueller was unable to establish a conspiracy between members of the Trump campaign and the Russians involved in this activity, he made it clear that “[a] statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts.” In fact, Mueller also wrote that the “investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts.”'
  21. Wow, you are already resorting to gaslighting? Must be losing, lol. I'll take the high road from here on out because I have the facts on my side
