Democratic Representative Eric Swalwell of California lambasted Representative Jim Jordan on social media after the Ohio Republican, who once tried to mock mask-wearing mandates, made an anti-vax comment on Twitter.

The staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump and relentless critic of Dr. Anthony Fauci—America's leading infectious disease expert and Chief Medical Advisor to President Joe Biden—tweeted:


"Ohio should ban all vaccine mandates."


Swalwell, however, dragged the GOP Representative by bringing up Jordan's own controversial past.

"Ohio should mandate sexual assault reporting for coaches."


Swalwell was referring to the Ohio State University sexual misconduct scandal where Jordan was an assistant wrestling coach with the university's wrestling program from 1987 to 1995.

In June 2018, Jordan was accused of being aware of and ignoring allegations of sexual misconduct by the team's former physician, Richard Strauss, who was working during Jordan's tenure as an assistant coach.

Jordan dismissed the students' claims and described Strauss's accusers as "pawns in a political plot."

But several students came forward and claimed Jordan took part in locker-room discussions pertaining to Strauss's abusive behavior.

People were here for Swalwell's acerbic wit aimed at the founding member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus.






Twitter had thoughts of their own in response to Jordan's questionable health priorities.







In April, Jordan was raked across the coals online when he asked, "How many masks are we supposed to wear this week?" after he had been whining and politicizing pandemic health and safety guidelines.

He also demanded to know when Americans would get their "liberty and freedoms back."

Dr. Fauci responded by expressing he did not view this as a "liberty thing" but more as a "public health thing" and that the suggested safety measures were not his personal recommendation.

Girl's Hilarious Reaction To Getting Divisive Candy For Halloween Caught On Doorbell Cam

In the '80s and '90s, kids were raised with the understanding that they got what they got, and they should say, "Thank you," for what they received. This was true for birthdays, holidays, and trick-or-treating on Halloween, even if they got candy they wanted to throw away the instant they turned the corner.

But kids today are much more communicative about what they like and don't like, and they can be brutal in their bluntness.

The Flat Earth conspiracy theory is strictly a modern online movement, rumored to have begun as a prank, that gained momentum among people who mistrust authority through the power of social media.

There is a persistent myth that Europeans in the Middle Ages believed the Earth was flat. But that is a 19th-century fabrication to sell Columbus Day, not historical reality.
