Assuming he can strong-arm enough Republicans to get the gavel, Jim Jordan will be a weak Speaker because he won't work with Democrats for the good of our country & he'll be a weak Speaker because Republicans have zero chance of holding their narrow majority together for long no matter what.
Come 2025, Republicans will have lost the House, @RepJeffries will be Speaker, & all Americans will be far better off for it!

.@Jim_Jordan American people can do and deserve💯 better👆, Jim. Shall we?
1. The OSU Wrestling Controversy:
While serving as an assistant wrestling coach at OSU, some uncomfortable allegations surround you. Several wrestlers claim they talked about Dr. Strauss's inappropriate actions in locker room conversations, yet you claim complete oblivion. This isn't a political game; it's about integrity, Jim. A clear, transparent discussion is what the public deserves. To see someone with such evasiveness potentially be 2nd in line for the Presidency? Troubling.
2. The January 6th Debacle:
You brushed off the January 6 committee, despite being under subpoena. The narrative portrays you as instrumental in the election results dispute. Admittedly in contact with Trump on the day, yet you've kept mum on the details. Promoting misleading election stories and giving dubious speeches paints a picture, Jim. But claiming it's your "constitutional duty"? A far stretch. How could we trust someone who was knowingly trashing our U.S. Constitution by advocating for Trump to overturn our election results?
3. Disregard for Ohioans:
Ohio's citizens deserve a representative who prioritizes them. Instead, they see someone disputing election results, opposing Ukraine aid, and neglecting farm bills. Healthcare and jobs? You're more into conservative TV cameos. And that anti-environment stance? It's a disregard for the well-being of Ohioans.
But let's not gloss over the $30 million mystery, shall we?
1. Puzzling Prosperity:
Your yearly haul goes way beyond a Congressional pay. The money trail, especially the $2.25 million account filled with anonymous contributions and business earnings, raises eyebrows.
2. Questionable Business Ties:
It’s intriguing how certain companies seem to benefit from your position, and these same entities generously fund your campaign. Accepting over $600k from a Covington metal firm? Seems like a back-scratching operation.
3. Ambiguous Investments:
A real estate portfolio and a hefty stock investment is commendable. But when legislative actions intersect with personal gains, it's a gray area.
4. Lobbyist Attachments:
Your lobbyist links? They sketch a silhouette of a Congressman whose fidelity might be up for sale. Who are you representing? Ohio or your financiers?
5. Gifts Without Names:
Anonymous gifts raise alarm bells. Without clarity on the donors, how can we be sure they don't sway your stance?
Jim, it's not the fortune that's the crux. It's the shadowy, complex network behind it. The people of Ohio need transparency. So, where does your allegiance lie? With your constituents or your balance sheets? If it wasn't for your jerrymandered district, I don't believe you could even win back your seat, let alone be the Speaker of the House.
Your move, Congressman.
