"Conservative conspiracy theorists, however, came to believe Colangelo's work in the Manhattan district attorney’s office was actually evidence of the Biden administration secretly pulling the strings in the hush money case, as part of an elaborate election plot against Trump." SMH, this Jim Jordan's 3rd attempt to interfere with one of Trump's cases and he's being sued by one prosecutors officer for doing so. I've never seen someone so actively not do their job and waste money.


TheKingofAndrews

Jim Jordan has been in Congress for over 16 years and doesn't have 1 bill to his name. Jim Jordan is the Michael Jordan of not doing shit but looking important


Wokonthewildside

He doesn’t look important


Screen-Of-Green

Gym looks the other way.


Hurde278

Thank you. I was getting tired of people respecting that dirtbag by using his government name. Use his real name when you talk about Gym Jordan

I have never understood why you would entrust a man who can't even find a suit coat in his own closet with looking for the skeletons in everyone else's.


PadKrapowKhaiDao

That. Is. Perfect. Bravo!


kinglouie493

He left his jacket back at the OSU locker room


Ancguy

Wait, you mean you haven't seen the way he rolls up his sleeves and bravely goes after the demons of wokism? Pay attention, man! 😂


this_dust

I’ve scraped dogshit off of my shoe that looked more important than Gym Jordan.


McCool303

He does however look impotent.


wrongseeds

Looks like a rumpled loser to me.


Vast_Neighborhood_44

I dunno the way he’s always got his jacket off, it certainly looks like he’s bearing down and doing important stuff. /s


AnybodyMassive1610

Important stuff** ** note: does not include protecting boys from assault


Shenanigans99

He's a perfect example of the modern Republican party: they're not here to govern; they're here to burn it all down so they can say, "See? We told you big government doesn't work!"


TheStabbingHobo

They had control of all three branches of government and didn't do shit for two years. 


barkbeatle3

Hey, that’s not true! They cut taxes for the billionaires! Give them some credit!


Lanark26

*And* made sure that the smaller tax cuts for regular people would sunset during a Democratic Administration.


regeya

Not even the first time it's happened. They even managed to convince people that Obama personally raised their taxes.


harveygoatmilk

Jim Jordan is the Rand Paul of Ron Pauls


SaveDavey

Jim Jordan is secretly the RuPaul of Rand Pauls of Ron Pauls.


srs_time

He has a stellar on time record though, as well as tries to have more than the minimum amount of flair. One time I saw him with 3 lapel pins!


tomparker

He lives up to his towering 5’ 2” stature and will have lots more to say, shortly.


VaccumSaturdays

He’s a dolt, but he’s [sponsored about 50.](https://www.congress.gov/member/jim-jordan/J000289?q=%7B%22sponsorship%22%3A%22sponsored%22%7D)


rjs621

He’s the king of forced touch


kinglouie493

Please spell his name correctly, it Gym Jordan


f8Negative

That's not true. He bought out all the cheap yellow ties from Macy's.


Ohnonotuto4

I believe those are Kohl’s ties.


Mo_da_foe

Jordan is a dick. He belongs behind bars. Not in congress. Don't be an asshole. Vote the POS out. All he does is waste taxpayer dollars on bullshit.


Hopeful_Tiger_7582

Exactly. WTF Ohio?


Mediocritologist

His district is gerrymandered to pieces.


Old_Satisfaction_233

Surprise,surprise, surprise…


Sick_Sabbat

I live in his district and absolutely hate it. My county (Marion) has been red for god knows how long. Town of nothing but bars and churches. Trump shit everywhere though less now. The other fun fact of us trying what? Two or three times now to get an independent districting committee? Every time its framed as "YOU DONT WANT NON OHIOANS WRITING YORU DISTRICTS DO YOU?!" Tell me how it's fucking fair the party in power gets to draw them up lol.


Mediocritologist

Did you sign the petition for the fair district ballot initiative? It will be on the ballot in November if they get enough signatures which sounds promising. We gotta keep trying!


latter_daysainte

It is. It looks like Idaho but only 1000 times thinner.


whisker_biscuit

Doesn't his district map look like a duck?


lillyrose2489

Yes and covers some of the more remote and conservative parts of the state. It's so frustrating.


mojojojojojojojom

This America Life had an episode about on how GOP bad faith destroyed efforts to have a non gerrymandered map. It’s an amazing listen, here is the transcript. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/784/transcript


ndasmith

He's doing the job his donors are paying him to do.


ManiaGamine

Is this that weaponization of government we keep hearing about?


MicroCat1031

Yes Yes it is.


icouldusemorecoffee

> I've never seen someone so actively not do their job and waste money. His constituents *love* it. As long as he is whining about liberals they'll happily give him their hard earned cash.


Kraelman

> House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan accused the Justice Department of coordinating with New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg in a “politicized” prosecution of former President Donald Trump. The funny thing is that... he's not *completely* wrong. It is *inherently* political because if Donald Trump had never been elected President, none of this would be happening to him. He could have paid hush money to whoever he wanted(which isn't a crime if you're not running for election/an elected official), continued deflating and inflating the value of assets to his heart's content. Nobody cared, the guy was a clown show who could afford gigantic legal teams (and then not pay them) so it was too expensive to ever go after him, and he could afford to delay so much that any trial would outlast an elected official's tenure. Trump had the perfect system to avoid any sort of accountability. But then he ran for President. Becoming the most scrutinized man on the planet is *really* stupid when you are used to breaking laws that are inconvenient for you whenever you want. Also, I love that Jordan *isn't* saying that Trump is innocent and that he broke no law. Just that the prosecution is "politicized". **"We're the law and order party! That means the law doesn't apply to us!"**


Impeachcordial

If it wasn't political, it wouldn't be a crime, because it'd be private not campaign funds.


f8Negative

And not be arrested by the FBI.


ND_82

Incidentally “not doing their job and wasting money” is the new rnc slogan.


Emergency_Property_2

Old Gym is such a glutton for punishment.


TintedApostle

Remember how republicans talk about how democrats will go after political opponents? Total projection.


FranticGolf

Everything with Republicans is projection.


Docster87

Gaslight Obstruct Project. Projection isn't solo everything but it is one of the three prime pillars.


Foojira

Gerrymander Obfuscate Propagandize


gideon513

They plant those seeds of doubt and do these fake probes so that they can get away with actual crimes later and say the same thing is happening to them when they actually break the law. They want everyday people to be numb to it. It’s exactly what’s happening with Trump now, but hopefully he won’t get away with it.


Ilosesoothersmaywin

The crowd chanting "Lock her up!" is merely an echo now.


jwr1111

Gym Jordan opens new probe on why he is such an insufferable douche.


whatproblems

be anal about it


florkingarshole

He should go home and probe his own ass and stop wasting everyone's time.


TheKingofAndrews

Who knows maybe he'll find more of Hunter Biden's dick pics in his own ass?


florkingarshole

Doesn't seem like Hunter's type, but you never know . . .


hookisacrankycrook

He could try writing and passing a bill Ohioans, or anyone for that matter, actually cares about. He's never done it. 8 terms and not a single bill.


Numerous_Photograph9

Biden's done more for Ohio in the past 3 years than Jordon has done in the past 16. Meanwhile, Jordon's district will reelect him, and continue to blame Biden for gas prices being so high.


somme_rando

Maybe he should probe why he never answered a subpoena. This should get thrown in his face every time he asks a question. https://www.newsweek.com/jim-jordan-taunted-subpoena-evasion-clock-1828687 A report released in December accused Jordan of being a "significant player" in efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results, adding that the Ohio representative was issued a subpoena but failed to appear last year for his scheduled deposition on May 27 and June 11. Jordan, a staunch ally of former President Donald Trump, was subpoenaed in December 2021.


smalltownlargefry

Don’t worry. Trumps got that covered.


Mo_da_foe

Probe this asshole.


ConfusedClicking

And money


bakeacake45

Jim Jordan - a “man” without a spine. Watched our country’s young men be sexually abused and did nothing. Even after several of the young men told him they were being abused. Could it be because he enjoyed watching?


RandomLoony

He still reviewing the tapes nightly looking for evidence


bakeacake45

One handed video “review”


Tballz9

He should launch a probe into the sexual abuse of college athletes and the corrupt officials that cover it up.


hookisacrankycrook

Oh he doesn't need to probe that because he knows the answer. And if he probed who covered it up he'd be probing himself.


zippiskootch

What is he ‘probing’ this time? I tire of child abusers setting a course through our body politic…


Iwantmy3rdpartyapp

Now, to be fair, as far as I know, Gym Jordan never abused any children. What he *did* was look the other way and allow *others* to abuse children. Is it better? Is it worse? I don't know. Is he an evil piece of shit? Absolutely, one hundred percent.


zippiskootch

You’re right, he allowed it which in most circles, other than the GQP, is pretty much frowned upon. In the republikkkan party however, it’s a rite of passage.


Sick_Sabbat

Not only did he allow it he convinced one of the biggest names accusing OSU, Mark Coleman, to "recant" his statement that Jordan knew about the abuse. Well officially Jordan just contacted Coleman's parents, Coleman then clarified that he never had any "direct knowledge" that Jordan knew. When just months before he said the exact opposite. Jordan not only knew about it (it was basically impossible not to), he protected those that did it and he attacked the victims and their families. Jordan is a piece of shit.


dattru

Portrait of Loser, destined to lose at everything he is assigned. Try to impeach Biden again. Oh yeah, no evidence.


bootlegvader

Isn't this election interference?  I thought one is forbidden from investigating anything nominally connected to a presidential candidate after they have announced their run?


MicroCat1031

That depends on whether they have a (D) or an (R) beside their name.


Wild_Bill

Someone else said he’s being sued by one of the prosecutors for interfering with with a justice department case.


mwkingSD

So Sleepy Don’s pet Rep, Mr Jordan, is now taking orders from Fox News hosts? And they think this is somehow going to go better than the Biden and Mayorkas evidence-free impeachments? Perhaps Mr Jordan should try working on actual legislation for a change?


[deleted]

[удалено]


z7q2

I will never forget that look on his face when Trump dropped his name at the press conference after the first impeachment failed. He looked like he was going to cry.


Anacalagon

Jim Jordan got voted into office on the strength of not noticing sexual abuse in his wrestling program.


PadKrapowKhaiDao

Oh he “noticed” it, alright. He just didn’t DO anything about it.


SubstantialAbility17

Of course he did, trying to divert attention from that last one that went down in flames. I wish someone would probe him, lol.


Titfortat101

Which one? The Georgia one? The Alvin Bragg one (where he is now being sued)? Or the Biden Impeachment?


SubstantialAbility17

All of them


hookisacrankycrook

He's never done anything productive in congress. His endless investigations have uncovered nothing. He's never written and passed a bill. Voters should put him on a PIP.


Mother_Knows_Best-22

Good ole ***Gym*** Jordan. Ask Ohio State athletes about this asshole.


IllIllllIIIIlIlIlIlI

“House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan accused the Justice Department of coordinating with New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg in a “politicized” prosecution of former President Donald Trump. Mr. Jordan demanded in a letter recently to Attorney General Merrick B. Garland that Mr. Garland hand over documents and information about Matthew Colangelo, a former senior Justice Department official who now is a lead prosecutor for Mr. Bragg in the Trump hush money case.” This is all they have to prove the hush money case is a “political hatchet job”? A guy who worked on a federal case against Trump is now working on a NY case against Trump? The investigation into Trump’s charitable foundation started in 2018 after the Wall Street Journal (CONSERVATIVE NEWS OUTLET) reported on Trump’s fraudulent charity. If anyone prompted that investigation, it was the WSJ, not “democrats” The hush money trial started two years earlier, in 2016!! So they’re saying this guy who worked on an investigation that started in 2018 is responsible for launching the hush money trial in 2016 before he was even working on the case? Oh yeah you’re really cracking the case. Trump was president when both of these investigations started!


hannahbananaballs2

Jim Jordan should be in prison


ConfusedClicking

Fuck Gym Jordan


readerf52

I find it amazing that Bartiromo’s suggestion/push led Jordon to open another useless investigation, when several college wrestlers asked/begged for an investigation and Jordon was silent and did nothing. Ohio, you deserve better.


Encinodad

Perfect example of why you can never let republicans lead anything.

Professional_Check_3

Probe his ass!


DeeDee719

I live in his heavily gerrymandered district. I’m proud to say I’ve voted against him every single time I’ve had the opportunity but he is a fucking bad penny.


Vivid_Cookie7974

A new Jim Jordan PROBE??? I bet students taking showers everywhere are a bit nervous.


TheDunadan29

Hmm, I wonder why no Republican led investigation lead anywhere? Surely it can't be that investigating Internet based conspiracy theories are wrong? Right?


kingsofjudah

If I were Hakeem Jeffries, I would only agree to save Mike Johnson if he agrees to shut down these crazy, extremist activities that waste time and money. Otherwise, let the House Republicans devour their own. As long as there is no Speaker, there is also no Chairman Jordan.


TJ7298

The only probe that needs launching is the one aimed at Gym Jordan’s ass.


Tobias---Funke

Maybe he should try helping his constituents!


Effective-Space6171

Fuck this gray, comb-over piece of shit.


MarkHathaway1

So, the media, run by Rupert Murdoch, runs the Republican Party? WCGW?


Rare-Forever2135

Jordan always looks like he'd be better fit to a life of trying to upsell people on undercoating for that brand new Chevy.


MessagingMatters

Last desperate gasp before Republicans lose House majority.


Individual-Nebula927

The only question is whether they will lose the majority before or after the election.


MessagingMatters

I agree. I think it will be before.


original208

Exactly. The GOP are going to get crushed this November.


RazeTheRaiser

Gym Jordan should launch a Congressional probe into Gym Jordan ignoring a Congressional subpoena. Gym Jordan should launch a Congressional probe into Gym Jordan being complicit in and covering up the rape of college athletes. Gym Jordan should launch a Congressional probe into why Gym Jordan hasn't done one productive thing as a Congressman for almost 20 years. Gym Jordan should launch a Congressional probe into Gym Jordan aiding in and attempting to overthrow the Government on Jan 6.


ntwild97

All I've heard from this douchebag is complain complain complain, with not a single true statement to show for it


UltravioletAfterglow

Gym might as well add another sure-to-be failed and embarrassing “investigation” to his resume. He never has done anything constructive with his taxpayer-funded job in 17-plus years of representjng his ridiculously gerrymandered district.


d57giants

I don’t want to know about Jim Jordan’s probe. For god sake leave his buttwork off of Reddit please.


MrLanesLament

A Gym Jordan probe sounds like something young athletes should be extremely afraid of.


Emergency_Property_2

How many humiliations will this make? I’ve lost count.

It’s an anal probe right? Gym is launching an anal probe.

We should send a probe up his ass to see what's bugging him.


dsisto65

The only probe Gym should launch is one up his ass to see what causing the obstruction. By guess is it’s Trump.


Drool_The_Magnificen

Probing the depths of Trump's buttocks, no doubt.


IdahoMTman222

GYM has turned a respected bipartisan congressional committee into a circus joke. He was practiced with all of the Bengazi investigations which were another politically motivated farce.


Fun-Draft1612

Gym thinks he can use the witch hunt defense once he is indicted for all the felonies by claiming they're coming after him for these fantasy investigations.

God damn. I'm in his district, and he doesn't do a fucking thing for us yet still gets elected by the idiots in this place. He's literally the most useless piece of shit I have ever seen.

The only successful probe Jim Jordan will make is into his own rectum.


Ferrocile

The guy is an absolute waste of space and an even bigger waste of taxpayer dollars. Can we get some representation who actually want to make things better for Americans?


GwarRawr1

The first few attempts didn't work and most of Jim Jordan's social media are posts calling him out.


Mysterious-Wasabi103

So what's Jim Jordan doing? Trying to conjure up allegations against our legitimately elected President and to what ultimately? To reinstall a wannabe Dictator Trump. I hope the time comes where the Jim Jordans of the country and all their seditious traitor friends get put on trial.


Little-Bad-8474

Anyone else think it is long past time for a congressional inquest into Jim Jordan’s sordid wrestler coach past?


Spiritual-Bear4495

Does anyone have a count, a number, for all the probes these people are doing? It seems to me they start one at the drop of a hat.

VaguelyArtistic

The House GOP is basically "Bravo For Republicans" and all these morons are looking for a storyline to secure a spot next season.


Early-Juggernaut975

The reality is there’s nothing to find. The Biden administration is not lying about their hands off approach to these criminal cases against Trump and they are not corrupt. That makes it difficult to find anything to even attack them with. The problem for Bartiromo and Jim Jordan is that they know they would be corrupt if the tables were turned so it’s inconceivable that Biden isn’t doing the same thing.


bluemew1234

>they are not corrupt. Woah, woah, woah. Just because Republican's handpicked witnesses either admitted to lying about wrongdoing or completely cleared Biden of corruption doesn't mean he isn't still *ultra super duper secret corrupt!*


preatorian77

He needs to keep his probing away from the gym.
