Report links Jim Jordan PAC to $250K 'dark money' from GEO Group
A political action committee tied to Rep. Jim Jordan, the American Liberty Foundation, accepted a $250,000 'dark money' payment from GEO Group, the private prison company that contracts with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. A Pogo Investigates report published in The Guardian documents the $250,000 transfer last year and traces financial links between GEO Group and Jordan's political network. The contribution prompted an FEC complaint and arrives while Jordan serves as House Judiciary Committee chair overseeing justice and immigration policy. The connection matters because it ties a senior congressional overseer of immigration enforcement to a company that profits from detention, creating clear conflict-of-interest concerns about policy influence.
When Trump calls someone “outstanding,” it’s a safe bet that they’re a POS. Trump 2018 during OSU accusations: “Jim Jordan is one of the most *outstanding people I’ve met... I believe Jim Jordan 100 percent.” Jim Jordan linked to ‘dark money’ from ICE detention contractor | The Guardian

It would be soooooo nice to be able to vote this guy out. Sadly this district is so gerrymandered it would be a bloody miracle. (Thanks to the latest regerrymandering it no longer looks like a duck, but more like a toilet...and now that toilet includes me!)
