NeverTrump Love Object Jake Tapper: Stop Saying The Spectacularly Corrupt Hunter Biden Used His Name to Enrich Himself, Jim Jordan, Or I'll Attack You With Perkins-Coie's Smear of You

A reminder, from Julie Kelly:

The Ohio congressman has been under a relentless media siege since NBC News reported on July 3 that Jordan ignored "sexual abuse" by a team doctor when Jordan was an assistant coach for the wrestling team at The Ohio State University from 1986 to 1994. The article is short on evidence of sexual abuse but quotes a few of Jordan’s former teammates who insisted the congressmen knew of the inappropriate behavior by Dr. Richard Strauss and did nothing about it. In April, the university announced it would investigate allegations against Strauss, who committed suicide in 2005.

The NBC News report offered mostly innuendo from less-than-credible sources: One accuser is an ex-con who did time in prison for mail fraud, drug possession, and stealing from investors; another is a shady business owner with a "long history of litigation and an apparent bone to pick with the Jordan family" who allegedly sent a disturbing picture to the widow of a former OSU wrestler.

But the initial story did provide one telling clue about where the Jordan smear job originated: Perkins Coie, the same law firm that hired Fusion GPS on behalf of the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016 to produce the infamous "Steele dossier." Perkins Coie is overseeing OSU's investigation into Strauss and has "interviewed more than 150 former students and witnesses and is engaged in further investigative efforts."

Coincidence? Not a chance.

Now comes the cvcks' favorite stallion to attack Jim Jordan with this obviously-fake smear in order to defend the obviously-corrupt Hunter Biden:
