Rep. Eric Swalwell announced Thursday that he will run for California governor, the latest Democrat to join the crowded race to succeed outgoing Gov. Gavin Newsom.
Swalwell, who has served in Congress since 2013, will face a list of high-profile Democrats that includes former Rep. Katie Porter, former Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and activist billionaire Tom Steyer, who entered the race to lead the deep-blue state on Wednesday.
Swalwell announced his gubernatorial run on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" On his new campaign website, the California Democrat focused on the need to tackle high costs and affordability as the reason he's running for statewide office.
"I’m running for Governor because prices are too high and people are scared. California’s next governor has two jobs. One, keep the worst president in history out of our homes, out of our streets, and out of our lives," he said.
He continued, "A lot of candidates talk about taking on Trump. I’m taking him on in real time. My January 6 lawsuit is one of the only lawsuits against the President that survived his new presidency. Speaker Pelosi selected me to help lead his impeachment, and today, I’m leading the Democrats’ effort in the House to investigate January 6."
Swalwell, 45, gained prominence during President Donald Trump’s first term in office when he was heavily involved in both in both impeachment proceedings. That included a stint as a House manager for Trump’s second impeachment trial.
He also ran for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, but never polled above the low single digits and ended his bid after just a few months.
Swalwell has remained a fervent critic of Trump, which has made him a target of the president and his allies.

Biden has never tried to enter my house, and California is further from Delaware than where I live.
Because group-think is of the greatest importance ...
HE DOESN’T EVEN LIVE THERE !!!!!!!!!!!!
All that matter is the “D” next to his name.
All Politics is National!
California is the new Delaware.
A national joke.
It makes me sad : (
This. 100%.
He’ll probably win, and scary enough could be the ‘saner’ choice between him and that psycho woman porter.
California deserves him.
The whole Fang-Fang debacle should have ended this idiot’s political career on the spot.
Now we have the likes of Bercerra, Swawell and “Mrs. Potato Head” Katie Porter running - one of whom is likely to win.’
Idiot voters + Illegals + Vote Fraud = Katie Porter as governor. This is what I think will happen.
Any of them will continue, if not accelerate, Gavin Newsom’s California Doom Loop.
And we thought Gruesome was bad. Sacramento will be crawling with Chinese spies.
Fang Fang! Cauliphonya’s first elitist celebrity.
Fang Fang grabbed his
