The Arizona Democratic senator said he regrets not seeing the signs that his colleague was “a predator.”
Sen. Ruben Gallego said his former close friend, Rep. Eric Swalwell, “betrayed” his trust following revelations of sexual assault allegations and denied having any knowledge of the serious accusations lodged against the California Democrat.
“Eric Swalwell lied to all of us — lied to the most powerful people in this country — and they trusted him,” Gallego, an Arizona Democrat, told reporters Tuesday afternoon in his office.
“I fell for it,” Gallego said, adding that Swalwell “became very good at being a predator.”
Swalwell, who served with Gallego in the House, has withdrawn his bid for California governor and announced plans he will resign from Congress following multiple sexual misconduct allegations.
“I let this man into my family … it hurts me that this man hurt a lot of people,” Gallego, who chaired Swalwell’s 2020 presidential campaign, said in emotional remarks where he at times appeared on the verge of tears.

So with “believe the women”, the democrats were just joking, right?
I would bet good money this clown was in on it too.
BULLS___!
These people are so full of it they are blind to it.
I had a friend years ago who was a real cheater type. Cheated on his wife and also on the extra gitlfriends. It is impossible to not notice this. Of course Gallegos knew. Probably did the same shyt himself. But there no way he didn’t know.
I seriously doubt that he will stand up to any investigation and he has opened the door to an investigation.
“lied to the most powerful people in this country”
The elephant in the room. They should not be the most powerful and the hubris to say so, we the people should be. The system is whacked.
Crocodile tears. Gallego knows Swalwell is a scumbag and didn’t care about it until now when it may threaten his own political career. There are no friendships in politics. Everyone in that game uses and abuses each other to get what they want.
Gallego is full of it. I wonder how many trysts they had with hookers in Qatar on that camel riding trip. I’m not a young man and have known a lot of men in all walks of life in all positions of wealth and power. After an hour or two you know what kind of man you’re dealing with (90% accuracy) and if they are a sleaze ball predator or not. Little things. How they treat a waitress. How fast they drink hard liquor. How fast they put ‘good’ booze in front of you (en vino veritas). How they treat someone who can do nothing for them. But of course congress attracts a large amount of pathological liars, sociopaths, and psychopaths so of course Gallegos is lying.
Baloney
You were being Willfully Ignorant
BREAKING: Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) says ONLY if he is sued or brought before a legal proceeding will he reveal text messages or evidence to prove his innocence.
Q: “Would you release any text messages you had with Eric Swalwell to prove your innocence?”
GALLEGO: “Anybody anybody that asked or anybody any legal you know proceedings..”
“That need it will get whatever they want without that yeah any legal proceedings...’
Fartwell’s downfall is not yet over. The reaction of Gallego does not help Gallego at all. If he was truly fooled he should have just said, “I should have seen it but I didn’t.”
No one would really believe him, but believability in this case is not the point. Making this go away in a manner that gives the liars in the media something to work with should have been his goal.
The short simple self -deprecating, “I should have seen it but I didn’t.” was his best shot to make this go away. He now looks guilty of knowing and ignoring Fartwell’s actions and Gallego’s own messy divorce adds fuel to the fire at his feet.
BS
He knew.
Just like EVERY Democrat knew Biden wasn’t “there”.
Dems are evil.
LOL LOL this guy changed the color of his beard so it wouldnt match the one of the dude on the video, hint hint its the same guy..thats him ON TAPE, in a sex orgy
“I have sinned” 💦
He looked like he was about to poo his pants, he knows he is involved, thats him ON TAPE..he was absolutely involved, they were all involved in sex orgys together
Sounds like he was Swalwell’s wingman. Did he rape anyone?
