WASHINGTON — Former Rep. Eric Swalwell is not the only member of Congress drawing attention for his activities off the House floor — with sources telling The Post that Rep. Jimmy Gomez, a married member of Swalwell’s “Cool Kids Clique,” was spotted surreptitiously kissing a much younger congressional aide in the summer of 2023.
Swalwell (D-Calif.) fell in with Gomez, a fellow Golden State Democrat, and Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) while all three were still in the House, sources said.
The trio became known for their socializing and drinking.
While Gallego, Swalwell’s closest friend in Congress, faced questions about what he knew after at least five women accused Swalwell of sexual assault and harassment, people involved in Democratic politics told The Post that the lower-profile Gomez warrants more scrutiny.
“This behavior of open philandering by married male members of Congress is pervasive and long overdue to be addressed,” one source told The Post.
“Regardless [of whether] it is a staff member of their own or another congressman, there is a massive power dynamic that fosters a culture of abuse. You have these married male congressmen openly cheating on their wives with female staffers — how is that not grounds for expulsion?”
The 2023 incident involved Gomez, now 51, making out with an aide to a different House Democrat outside a backyard party hosted by Swalwell to celebrate the start of the August congressional recess.
The aide, two decades younger than Gomez, “was sitting on the hood of the car and they were going at it,” according to a source who was smoking a cigarette in front of Swalwell’s home about a mile from the Capitol.

Sen Gallego was a member of the “cool kid clique,” but didn’t know anything about the head of the posse, his former roommate, Swalwell? Got it.
a bunch of creepy-ass weirdos. I remember when the Independence Day movie came out and when the trailer was in the movies and the capital building got struck by an alien laser and blew up, everyone broke out cheering.
Oh if only we could be visited by aliens

Lipstick On Your Collar
You said it belonged to me, made me stop and think
And then I noticed yours was red, mine was baby pink.
Who walked in but Mary Jane? Lipstick all a mess
Were you smooching my best friend? Guess the answer’s yes.
Lipstick on your collar told a tale on you
Lipstick on your collar said you were untrue
Bet your bottom dollar, you and I are through
‘Cause lipstick on your collar told a tale on you, boy
Told a tale on you, man
Told a tale on you, yeah.
He looks up to Danny DeVito.
Wannabe Cool Kids ... they never were, so, they ran for Congress.
lol
the “cool kid clique,”
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx
This congressional “cool kid clique” kinda reminds me of a similar trio from years ago: gary condit, morning joe & ????
I would find it really funny if about 15 Democrats suddenly found themselves Swalwelled because the party opened a can of worms it couldn’t control.
The words “Swalwell” and “Cool Kids” in the same sentence ... LOL LOL LOL.
“reminds me of a similar trio from years ago: gary condit, morning joe & ????”
It was the Orgy Club. Condit, Kasich, and Scarborough.
Thanx for adding the color
