Congressional Hits and Misses: Best of James Traficant

[@jeffs53]

Targeted, Railroaded, Sent to prison, offered a deal to get out after only 9 months of incarceration if he admitted guilt... He refused to admit to something he didn't do... Served the remainder of his 7 year sentence... I hope there is a special place in heaven for someone so noble, brave and fearless. A true patriot and one hell of an advocate of the American people. God Bless you Mr. Traficant

[@TheCodgod1996]

agreed!!!

[@naimaellouzi2102]

God bless him for being true and honest

[@LalitKumar-cu5iu]

Jeff S Whaaat, they sent this man to prison for 7 years....?? Does the usa court system have no credibility ?

[@babagarus]

@Rangarang that is a LIE. He was never incarcerated because he was a drug addict. Can you please inform yourself on this good man instead of soiling his name with drug addiction?

[@babagarus]

@Rangarang show me a SINGLE PROOF that he went to jail for his drug addiction. Don't be ridiculous by persisting in your ignorance...

I am a high school teacher and I had a student back in the early 2000s who was a House page. When she returned after her year in Washington, she told me that Jim Traficant was her favorite House member. Dude was a legend.

He came to our high school for the prom promise thing, He was joking around how the federalis were after him.

[@douglasjames1943]

I grew up in the old 17th district, in Girard, Ohio, with "Jimbo" as my congressman. He was a one of a kind, he called it exactly as he saw it, and took no crap from anybody. We loved him back home, and that meant the old boy network in DC did not. He looked after his people, and he cared. I remember when I won the regional spelling bee to qualify me for the national competition, in 1990...I was 10 years old. He sent me a beautiful letter, not a form letter devoid of feeling, but a real letter, congratulating me and telling me he was proud of me and that representing my area would make people back home proud. He even wanted to meet me when my mom and I got there, but something had come up last minute and he was not able to do so when we got to the Capitol. They just do not make them like this guy anymore, and guys like him were rare to begin with. RIP Jimbo.

[@tartgreenapple]

His only drawback was he was a criminal.

[@ChristThroughTheLens]

The Big Guy's death remains questionable around here. Can you imagine Jim Traficant if he hadn't blown his knee out his senior year at Pitt? He was the 16th round draft pick of the Steelers. Can you imagine Jim as the QB and Ditka as his tight end at Pitt? What cracks me up around here is the people back then kept saying "you tell'em Jim!" Today, they whine that Trump is too outlandish.. I think Jim would be happy with Trump right now! What he wouldn't be happy with is his onetime aide..... Tim Ryan. My late friend was a staffer for Traficant, and I know for a fact that he did a TON for the Valley, and if he was still in office, GM would still be operating!
