Swalwell says McCarthy criticism of him inspiring death threats
The Hill ^ | 01-19-2023 | Jared Gans

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) said Wednesday that attacks from House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) are inspiring death threats against him.

Swalwell told MSNBC’s Nicole Wallace on “Deadline: White House” that McCarthy plans to remove him from his committee assignments for “political vengeance.”

Swalwell has emerged as a particularly controversial individual among House Republicans over his connection to a suspected Chinese spy during his 2014 reelection campaign, which became public in 2020.

Swalwell ended his ties with the Chinese national when the FBI informed him of her identity, but Republicans have called for him to be removed from sensitive committee assignments and accused him of jeopardizing national security.

McCarthy reiterated a promise to prevent Swalwell and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) from joining the House Intelligence Committee last week.

According to reports, Ms Fang Fang was tragically killed when China Eastern Airlines Flight MU5735 inexplicably plunged from 29,000 feet in a nearly vertical dive to crash in the Guangxi countryside in China. There were no survivors

RIP Fang Fang, your work here is done - and so are you

Swalwell sure is a whiny little maggot. The “death threats” crap is just a sympathy getter. All worthless liberal RATS do it.

I wonder if Trump ever gets death threats? or has Kathy Griffin hold up a picture of his severed head?

There are some who say Republicans faced a disaster in the 2022 midterms. True Republicans lost the Senate. But Eric Swallwell whining about Kevin McCarthy contradicts that the Republicans lost everything. If he wants the main stream media to continue to say Republicans were awful in the midterms, Eric needs to shut up.

There are 1.4 billion people in China and a limited number of Chinese names. How do we know that Fang Fang and this Fang Fang are the same?

Take you and your fellow Democrats to the baseball field.

Or, "to the train station."

“Swalwell says McCarthy criticism of him inspiring death threats”

$$$$$$$$$$

No, Fang Fang Banger Fartwell. It’s YOUR ACTIONS and YOUR IDEAS which inspire death threats.

I know you Liberals hate hearing this, but YOU are the one who is responsible for the way the world treats you, and NO ONE ELSE.
