If you were a donor to Eric Swalwell’s gubernatorial campaign, how would you react to learning that your contributions were used to pay his own wife to watch their children?
As Swalwell now runs for governor of California, a troubling pattern of campaign spending is drawing scrutiny, one that now includes direct payments to his spouse for “childcare.”
These payments do not stand alone. They come after years of similar child care expenditures through his congressional campaign, which are already the subject of my formal complaint before the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
A New Round of Payments—This Time to His Wife Recent disclosures from Swalwell’s gubernatorial campaign show multiple payments made directly to “Swalwell, Brittany” for child care: $2,301.00, $2,026.50, and $1,740.50.
These are not minor reimbursements; they are substantial, repeated payments to a candidate’s spouse.

Quite the couple...of grifters.
So, the taxpayers are paying that scum’s sh!tty wife to be a mother to their kids.
Now we know why she didn’t leave him over him ALLEGEDLY screwing all of those other women.
I thought that kind of behavior was standard operating procedure for someone running for office in CA.

Message: As Democrat Swalwell runs for governor of California, a troubling pattern of his campaign spending is drawing scrutiny.......that now includes Democrat Swallwell’s direct payments to his wife for “childcare,” to watch their children.
These payments come after years of similar child care expenditures through his Democrat congressional campaign, which are already the subject of a formal complaint to the FEC.
Recent disclosures from Swalwell’s Democrat gubernatorial campaign show multiple payments made directly to his spouse, “Swalwell, Brittany” for child care: $2,301.00, $2,026.50, and $1,740.50.
Democrat Swallwell paid his wife to do what she’s supposed to do-—watch their children.
These are not minor reimbursements; they are substantial, repeated payments to a candidate’s spouse.
Campaign Cash the laundry matts are always open.
Unbelievable isn’t it.
He pays his own wife to provide child care for their own children, out of campaign money.
I would love to know how that can be justified as a legitimate campaign expense.
Do we ever see audits of political campaigns to verify that the expenses are legitimate?
He was TOO STUPID to have his wife set up an LLC to work under. That would have at least have made it slightly more difficult to discover.
Look like neither the candidate or his staff is flying coach either. Must be nice living the high life with money from chumps.
Justice died the day Trump gave HILLARY a pass.
God warned us about this...it will get worse.
Ecc 8:11 When the sentence for a crime is not quickly carried out, people’s hearts are filled with schemes to do wrong.
AIRFARE SEEMS A BIT HIGH, ALSO
MATCH HIM UP WITH NICK SHIRLEY
And it looks like everyone is flying first class.
This should make him a shoe-in for governor. Dems love this grifter stuff and will vote for it all day long. /sarc
The question is: Is this illegal? Politicians often pay spouses or family members and it would seem to pass the irrespective test.
Quite the contrary. The Democrats are thinning the herd to avoid an all GOP general election.
Gross.
Maybe pay a spouse for typing in a campaign office, or for making polling phone calls.
But pay a woman for WATCHING HER OWN KIDS!?! That’s HER JOB!
These people are beyond disgusting.
This jerkoff is such a POS.
