I think a guy in congress who repeatedly banged a chinese spy in his bed and gave her classified docs that she then gave to China has gotten a slap on the wrist..heck he hasn’t even been charged with anything, because he’s a Democrat so its fine

Swalwell should know all about criminal defendants since he gave away info to Fang Fang.

He has got to be the least self-aware guy in California. And that’s saying something!

Swalwell will be judged by the same standard that he imposes on Trump.

I don’t remember a SINGLE time in my entire 50+ years when someone ran for office promising to target for investigation and prosecution a SPECIFIC individual.

If a politician in China took up with an American spy, they and their entire family would be executed.

And what punishment Mr. Swalwell, should a traitor get for repeatedly sleeping with a communist spy?
