Hardline conservative US Rep. Jim Jordan to run for House speaker, recently accused of ignoring sexual abuse allegations as Ohio State coach
https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/...e-rep-jim-jordan-run-house-speaker/841600002/
Republican Rep. Jim Jordan said he plans to run for House speaker, a move that will spark a contentious leadership battle in the House GOP conference just a few months before the November election.
“We’re running," Jordan told USA TODAY on Thursday. "There’s a letter as we speak that’s being sent to our colleagues.”
Jordan is one of the most powerful conservatives in Congress; he co-founded the House Freedom Caucus, a faction of about 30 hardline Republicans who frequently clash with the House GOP leadership.
Jordan’s decision spotlights the the long-simmering rift between hard-charging conservatives and GOP moderates.
Excellent. His ass getting curbed will teach those idiot freedom caucus members that they are not untouchables.
