"Nancy Mace Supports Jim Jordan for Speaker Amid Ignorance of Abuse Allegations"

Republican congresswoman Nancy Mace plans to support Rep. Jim Jordan as the replacement for ousted House speaker Kevin McCarthy, despite allegations that Jordan ignored sexual abuse by a team doctor while he was a wrestling coach at Ohio State University. Mace claimed to be unaware of the allegations, stating that Jordan has not been indicted. However, at least six former OSU wrestlers have said Jordan was aware but failed to act. Mace justified her support for Jordan based on his values, work ethic, and policy expertise. She dismissed concerns raised by former Rep. Liz Cheney about Jordan's knowledge of Trump's plans for January 6th. Mace also expressed willingness to "bury the hatchet" with Donald Trump, despite his credible accusations of sexual assault.
