Should we even remotely be surprised at the allegations of sexual abuse from current sitting Congressman Eric Swalwell when it's been the Democrat Party letting violent out of prison and shooting gay on the floor of the United States Senate over the past few years? I don't know. Hello from Washington. It's a beautiful day. The sun is shining. The tank is clean. The tank is clean. The tank is clean. The tank is clean. Yeah. Yet another member of Congress is just being thrown under the bus for horrifying allegations of sexual assault. What else is new? Welcome to this town. In case you guys haven't been following, this is a pretty huge story, actually, that Representative Eric Swalwell has been accused of literally dozens of former staffers, other employees on Capitol Hill and prominent people in politics of disgusting allegations of sexual abuse and assault that date back years and years and years and years. Now finally being reported on by the San Francisco Chronicle and cnn. He was leading the race for California governor to replace Gavin Newsom. Not suspicious timing at all with any of this, but it's really explosive stuff and everyone is talking about it. So let's get into it. Dozens and dozens and dozens of former staffers of Eric's Walwell put out a letter over the weekend, a public letter signed by them by name describing these allegations against their former boss and asking for public accountability for the actions that he allegedly did. They said this. We, the undersigned former staffers of Congressman Eric Swalwell, write today with heavy hearts and unwavering resolve the allegations reported by the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN are serious, credible, and demand accountability. We stand unequivocally with our colleague who showed extraordinary courage in coming forward to share her truth. We believe her. What has been described is not a political attack. It is the account of a young woman who trusted her employer, who was targeted and exploited by someone in a position of power over her, and who has carried this burden for years. The corroboration reported by both outlets, including the medical records and multiple witnesses, makes this clear that this cannot dismissed or deflected. No statement, no cease and desist letter, and no claim of political motivation changes what our colleague experienced. We call on all relevant law enforcement authorities to open a full and thorough investigation into the allegations against Congressman Swalwell without delay. No one is above the law. Not a congressman, not a candidate for governor. No one. We further call on Congressman Swalwell to immediately withdraw from the California gubernatorial race and resign his seat in the United States Congress. The people of California's 14th congressional district and the people of this country deserve representation from someone whose conduct reflects the values of public service. Remaining in either role while these allegations hang unresolved is an insult to every person who has ever worked for him, reported to him, or place their trust in him. To our colleague, you are not alone. We see you. We stand with you. We are deeply sorry that we did not know what you were enduring, and we carry the weight of that with us. Your bravery in speaking out has given voice to what many victims who have feared to say. And we are grateful for your courage. We are appalled by his actions and stand firmly with you and every victim who has come forward. Justice is not optional. Accountability is not negotiable. We will not be silent. Signed by the former staffers of Congressman Eric Stone Swalwell. In case there's any confusion whatsoever. Yes, this is the same Congressman who allegedly had a secret sexual relationship with a Chinese spy over the past several years named Feng. Feng, who worked her way into the highest echelon of American Democratic politics, the United States Congress, by conducting herself in what now appears maybe a pretty expected way, potentially allegedly in bed with this congressman. Saying that out loud just really paints the picture of how weird 2026 is. Right. But the colleague that these people in the letter are referring to is a former staffer for Representative Eric Swalwell, who says that he her while she was heavily intoxicated. This is reported by cnn. And left her bruised and bleeding. She said, I was pushing him off of me, saying no, saying this happened in 2024 after she had stopped working in Swalwell's office. He didn't stop, she said. It was the second time I'm reading from CNN here. Swalwell had non consensual sexual contact with her While she was 2019 when she was working for him. She said she woke up naked with him in a hotel room after a night of heavy drinking. She has no memory of what happened, but could feel physically that they had had sexual contact. After she came forward to the San Francisco Chronicle, three other women then came forward and spoke to CNN alleging other various kinds of sexual misconduct from this current sitting United States Congressman. And then of course came this letter from former staffers of Eric Swalwell signed by the dozens, saying we believe this to be true. This is where all of this gets really, really, because I will always be the first person to say we live in the United States of America. It is highly disgusting to me when we twist and manipulate the justice system for a mechanism to political ends to politically prosecute someone rather than on the basis of an actual crime like we often see against President Donald Trump with the justice system throughout the past decade, or virtually anyone who supports him for that matter. So I will always defend your right to innocence until guilt is proven. You have a presumption of innocence that you have a right to as an American citizen, and this congressman is no different. But there's a lot uniquely attributable to this story that feels so disgusting, so icky. So this has been a cover up for the last decade in American politics and it just now happens to be politically convenient to get him to drop out of the governor's race, which he did late last night, early this morning. He is no longer seeking the position of governor of California. Interestingly, he's not resigning from Congress. So I guess four separate allegations of are just creepy and predatory enough to not be governor of California, but also just creepy and predatory enough to be a United States Congressman. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. And though Eric Swalwell is denying these claims to his dying breath, said he's going to fight against them with everything he has. Again, presumption of innocence until guilt is proven. I have no problem with that. Virtually the entire Democrat political establishment apparatus is throwing yeeting this member of Congress under the bus as fast as they possibly can. Here's what Eric Swalwell had to say in response to the letter from his former staff.
