Democrat Senator Ruben Gallego Now Accused of Sexual Misconduct
PJ Media ^ | 04/16/2026 | Matt Margolis

Posted on 04/16/2026 7:24:25 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

I recently wrote that rumors suggested Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) might be the next domino to fall after sexual misconduct allegations took down Eric Swalwell.

Well, it’s happened. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) has confirmed that the previously unnamed senator she accused of “very disturbing” misconduct earlier this week is, in fact, Gallego.

Luna confirmed this during an interview with CBS News’ Major Garrett, who pressed her about the cryptic X post she made on Wednesday.

It’s seems like the Senate has its own trash to take out. @LeaderJohnThune You need to look into the allegations against one of your Senators, it’s very disturbing. My chief will be contacting your chief.— Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (@RepLuna) April 15, 2026

When Garrett asked her point-blank who she was talking about, Luna didn't dance around it.

"We are talking about an Arizona senator that was very closely tied to Eric Swalwell," she said, confirming it was Gallego when Garrett named him directly. She also noted that she'd already been in contact with Thune's chief of staff and that the matter had been referred to Senate Select Committee on Ethics for investigation.

So what exactly is "very disturbing"? Luna laid it out, albeit carefully. "Without, I guess, getting too graphic, there is a woman that allegedly is coming forward with attorneys, wants to go on record about an incident that occurred between the two of them at the same time, and the event was sexual in nature, allegedly."

Luna added that the allegations extend beyond that, pointing to what she described as two separate campaign finance violations.

Luna was clear that she was not positioning herself as an investigator. She's one House member, not a prosecutor, not an ethics committee, and not the Senate. But she made it clear she has no interest in doing what she says too many of her colleagues have done.

Read this thread from yesterday and the comments: Eric Swalwell’s ‘best friend’ Sen. Ruben Gallego on verge of tears as he makes stunning admission about ‘predator’ pol: ‘I regret it’

Many more or less predicted this.

In order to FLIP AZ you’d have to NUKE MARICOPA COUNTY since most local and state elections are STOLEN for DemonRats there.

A Republican House member as well. Guess Congress is having a “you too” moment.

He stole his election. Unfortunately so did Governor Katie Hobbs who will be picking his replacement.

Yesterday a FReeper mentioned that RG probably was in the video taken in the hotel room with Swalwell and those girls. A couple times, the head of a man briefly appears in the right side of the screen.

I’m not on social media. The only place I saw it was in X and I don’t want to join to be able to view it. Anyone have a link to a different source?

"That’s the thing about Democrats, they just get even worse over time."

That's because they get away with it all the time. Each time they're not held accountable, it emboldens them.

The key factor is how badly does the Dem party want to save him. If not, he will get the Biden/Swallwell treatment.
