On July 13, 2022, Popular Information investigative reporter Judd Legum tweeted that he noticed a message had disappeared from U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan's Twitter account. We quickly found evidence that this was true, as the Republican congressman from Ohio had previously tweeted that the claim that a 10-year-old Ohio girl was raped and had to cross state lines to get an abortion was a lie. It appeared that either Jordan or someone with access to Jordan's account deleted that tweet shortly after news broke on July 13 that a man had been arrested and charged with raping the child. Via Google cache, this is how the tweet looked before it was deleted: We reported extensively on the case of the 10-year-old girl, whose identity was not revealed due to her age: The Associated Press published the reason why the 10-year-old girl had to go over state lines to Indiana in order to receive the abortion: In sum, yes, a tweet was deleted or removed from Jordan's account regarding a 10-year-old girl who had to cross state lines to receive an abortion after being raped in Ohio.
