Gallego has maintained he was unaware of the allegations against Swalwell and said in a statement he was a victim of “right-wing conspiracies peddled by far-right activists like Anna Paulina Luna, the White House, and their allies.”
He continued, “I look forward to an apology from Rep. Luna for weaponizing the ethics process while refusing to investigate historic corruption that’s making life harder for families.”…
The California Governor's race was rocked this week when five women came forward to speak out against gubernatorial candidate, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), for sexual assault. To speak more on this our guest, influencer Mrs. Frazzled, broke the story and walks us through the process of giving these brave women a voice. We'll learn more about how Mrs. Frazzled exposed Swalwell's record concerning infidelity, harassment, and using his Snapchat account to lure women. It's another shameful reminder of how women are never believed and how men in higher office leverage their power to silence their victims.
We also learn about the online blowback Mrs. Frazzled has received for breaking the story and the most outrageous accusations people have made about her. We take the time to prove that she is not a Russian agent and has no motive to throw the California Governor's race to the Republicans. In fact, it's better to learn about this now than after ballots are sent out to California voters on May 4th. Especially since the Republicans were ready to expose Swalwell on this as part of their "October Surprise".

Gilbert, who mailed a conspiratorial documentary about Barack Obama to voters in swing states before the 2012 election, and has made films attacking Michelle Obama, Bill Clinton and Al Gore, and others celebrating Donald Trump, denied that he is a Republican political operative. “I just kind of follow the truth where I see it,” he said in an interview...
“We learned from press outlets that there are multiple allegations made against the Congressman,” attorney Elias Dabaie said in an email. “We believe those allegations are baseless and continue to seek the truth. We also want to understand why these allegations would suddenly arise on the eve on an election against the frontrunner in what appears to be a coordinated effort to undermine his candidacy.”…
This week we're talking government on the Data Over Dogma show, and woof! It's a doozy! First, we're going into the belly of the beast and talking to and actual, honest-to-goodness United States congressperson. Eric Swalwell has a D next to his name, which, if you ask some in our country, means he's a godless communist. In fact, he's a professed Christian who is nevertheless concerned about the dangerous rise of Christian Nationalism here. He's come on the show to talk about secularism in government, and how his religion guides him as he makes decisions in Congress. Then the Dans will dive into a discussion of the Biblical take on the interplay between religion and government. If God is over all, then should God's people submit to a secular authority? Did Jesus have anything to say about that? (You already know he did, so why are so many Christians acting like he didn't?)
Really American Host Kenny Hesse breaks down Representative Eric Swalwell absolutely destroying Republicans over their hypocrisy in a must see exchange from today's House Judiciary Committee Hearing on Climate Control: Decarbonization Collusion in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Investing.
Rep. Eric Swalwell calls on Republicans to condemn MAGA extremist MTG's insane claim. Swalwell slams MTG for tweeting that the Biden DOJ and FBI were planning to assassinate MAGA cult leader Donald Trump.
Swalwell told CNN's Anderson Cooper that it's "too rich" to hear "election integrity" talk come from the former president — who has falsely claimed that he won the 2020 election — as well as the House speaker — one of 147 Republicans that voted to overturn the results of the election...
Prosecutors say a 72-year-old man from Greenacres left voicemail messages that included threats to "come after you and kill you" and "come and kill your children."…
"McCarthy is targeting me for 1 reason: I'm effective. He wants to carry water (& sort Starbursts) for Trump's Big Lie & not be called out. He's projecting onto me b/c he's incapable of facing down the Ku Klux Klan elements in his caucus. If he thinks he's silencing me, he's not."
Today’s episode updates two separate lawsuits related to the 1/6 insurrection: Rep. Eric Swalwell’s suit against Trump, Trump Jr., Rudy Giuliani and Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks and the ongoing drama surrounding sanctions for the Kraken lawyers in King v. Whitmer, the Michigan lawsuit that exposed just how nonsensical all of the Kraken election lawsuits were.
In the first segment, we learn that neither Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice nor counsel for the House of Representatives believe that “inciting insurrection” is within the scope of your employment if you’re a member of the House of Representatives, so… Mo Brooks is on his own on this one. This is all about the Westfall Act, which we last discussed in Episode 498.
In the main segment, we check back in now that all the supplemental briefs have been filed after the mammoth 6-hour Michigan sanctions hearing. Learn who had the worst filing (hint: someone did worse than Lin Wood!), who had the… least worst?… and what is in store for all of the Kraken lawyers! BONUS: We’ve attached the complete six-hour hearing transcript. Interview:
…Inciting an attack on Congress "is not within the scope of employment of … any federal employee," the department reminded us, and Trump, in its brief. That single word, "any," marks the difference between a president and a dictator…
