This is not acceptable behavior in America. To add to the mix, we now have very questionable charges filed against a member of Congress who is valiantly fighting the deep state.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/2018\/07\/democrats-fake-news-media-and-law-firm-perkins-coie-try-to-take-down-honest-jim-jordan-with-disgusting-scurrilous-charges\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Gateway Pundit<\/a> posted an article today about the attack on Jim Jordan, who is a potential candidate for Speaker of the House and is a tenacious member of the House Freedom Caucus. The story here is not the charges against Jim Jordan, but the people making those charges. Consider the source of the accusations. One of the major players in this charade is the law firm of Perkins, Coie . Paul Mirengoff at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.powerlineblog.com\/archives\/2018\/07\/jim-jordan-and-his-accusers-part-two.php?utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=sw&amp;utm_campaign=sw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Power Line Blog<\/a> notes that Perkins, Coie is the Seattle-based operation that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.powerlineblog.com\/archives\/2017\/12\/who-was-that-masked-source.php\"> served<\/a> as the go-between between Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign and Fusion\/GPS, as they colluded with Russians to put together the phony dossier for use against Donald Trump. They are not unbiased or anything like that.<\/p>\n<p>Power Line Blog reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Yesterday, I <a href=\"http:\/\/www.powerlineblog.com\/archives\/2018\/07\/jim-jordan-and-his-accusers.php\"> discussed<\/a> the allegation that, decades ago, Jim Jordan did not take action to curb sexual harassment of wrestlers he was coaching at Ohio State. Jordan says he didn\u2019t know about the harassment, but two former wrestlers say he did.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Unfortunately for the anti-Jordan forces, the two wrestlers \u2014 Dunyasha Yetts and Mike DiSabato \u2014 turn out to be, respectively, a convicted criminal and an guy who recently was charged with a crime. Their credibility is negligible.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Power Line Blog article concludes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Perkins, Coie is involved in this matter, but it isn\u2019t representing the ex-wrestlers. Rather, it <a href=\"http:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/house\/395461-ohio-state-sex-scandal-complicates-jordans-possible-speaker-bid\"> reportedly<\/a> has been hired by Ohio State to investigate whether the allegations against the doctor (who committed suicide some years ago) <em>and whether enough was done to protect the students<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>This puts the hyper-partisan law firm (one reader who has dealt with Perkins, Coie in every election cycle for years describes it as \u201cthe legal goon squad of the Democrats\u201d) in charge of investigating Jim Jordan on behalf of Ohio State. There should be no expectation that the investigation will be fair as it relates to Rep. Jordan, an arch-enemy of partisan Democrats.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>How did Perkins, Coie come to be tapped for the investigation? Did Ohio State not know of the firm\u2019s close relationship with the Democrats? Or did those in charge of selecting counsel want a hyper-partisan firm to investigate Jordan?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Gateway Pundit reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The OSU, like any other American colleges, has its fair share of monsters. The latest being Christopher Pelloski, the guy who was treating children with cancer while trading in child porn from his college computer for six years till he got busted.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Unlike Pelloski, Richard Strauss had a full career and NEVER was bothered by the authorities. Which is weird. Not unusual but weird that the good doctor spent 20 years abusing University students, mostly from the wrestling team and nothing filtered out until today?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>I won\u2019t blame the victims if they\u2019re out there however isn\u2019t it convenient to bring up a dead physician, accuse him of molestation and by proxy turn Jim Jordan into a witness and accomplice of sort.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>As many have noticed these allegations conveniently surfaced the moment the position of Speaker of the House was rumored to go to Jordan.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>One of the alleged victims, Shawn Dailey claims GOP congressman Jim Jordan knew about the abuse and chose to ignore it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>\u201cI participated with Jimmy and the other wrestlers in locker-room talk about Strauss. We all did,\u201d Dailey, 43, told NBC News, referring to Jordan. \u201cIt was very common knowledge in the locker room that if you went to Dr. Strauss for anything, you would have to pull your pants down.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Source 2 \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/us-news\/fourth-ohio-state-wrestler-says-rep-jim-jordan-knew-about-n889071\">https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/news\/us-news\/fourth-ohio-state-wrestler-says-rep-jim-jordan-knew-about-n889071<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How do you prove that someone knew something?
