Probably a good call by Jordan. How can he be in the Senate when he’s not even House-broken?

“Until there is a public outcry for me to run!”

Didn’t trust him then, will never trust him at all.

You lie like Louie Gohmert. Go find your goddamn jacket!

He should maybe focus on getting a goddamn suit jacket.

And not standing by casually watching student athletes under his care get sexually abused.

The House has younger members.

“Democrats are going to impeach the President for a second time one week, one week before he leaves office. Why? Why?” the Republican asked on the House floor ahead of the impeachment vote.

Jordan hasn’t played dumb this much since the last time an Ohio State wrestler got raped right in front of him.

OT: This is sad news. Glad she lived a long 96 years, affording her the time to share her fierce talents with the world, but sad to hear of her passing.

Thank you Ms. Tyson.

RIP

I just got that alert. I had no idea she was 96. She had the pixiest little face.

A long run. Hope it was mostly, for her, a good one.

With Republicans controlling redistricting in Ohio, Jordan almost certainly has a safe House seat for the next 10 years. Whereas even were he able to win the Repub nomination for Senate, Democrats have a good shot at winning the Ohio Senate seat and especially if Jordan with all his baggage from providing boys to a pedophile to supporting sedition.

In the House Jordan is powerful especially within the Republican caucus and is assured of reelection where as if he runs for the senate he would have to give up his House seat for what will certainly be a difficult and risky campaign for the senate.

We’ll know more soon. Looks like he’s throwing his hat into the ring to see how hard he has to work to wrestle it away.
