Disgraced Supreme Court whistleblower busted for lying was once a mainstream media darling
Rep. Jim Jordan exposed Rev. Robert Schenck falsifying a claim in his book during a committee hearing

Prior to Reverend Rob Schenck’s discrediting appearance at the House Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday, the pro-choice activist was held up as an authority on the pro-life movement by the mainstream media.
During the hearing titled "Undue Influence: Operation Higher Court and Politicking at SCOTUS," Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, questioned Schenck on a section in his book that claimed his brother "made history" by having Chief Justice William Rehnquist refer to him as "Reverend Paul Schenck" in a case. However, Jordan proved the activist wrong by providing an audio recording of the case at the time.
"One thing I've learned: people who mislead folks on small things mislead them on big things," Jordan said.
Although Schenck’s credibility has now been called into question, he was heavily promoted as an authority figure in the mainstream media to attack the pro-life movement as he had once been a part of it.
