Democrat Eric Swalwell: ‘Congressional Leadership Knew About’ My Ties To Alleged Chinese Spy
DAILY WIRE ^ | 12/9/2020 | RYAN SAAVEDRA

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who sits on the sensitive House Intelligence Committee, said in response to an explosive story about ties to a suspected Chinese spy that “congressional leaders knew about” the matter and implied that they apparently did not think that it was a big enough issue to keep him off the Intelligence Committee.

The alleged spy, Chinese national Christine Fang, “targeted up-and-coming local politicians in the Bay Area and across the country who had the potential to make it big on the national stage” through “campaign fundraising, extensive networking, personal charisma, and romantic or sexual relationships,” Axios reported. “Even though U.S. officials do not believe Fang received or passed on classified information, the case ‘was a big deal, because there were some really, really sensitive people that were caught up’ in the intelligence network, a current senior U.S. intelligence official said.”

“Amid a widening counterintelligence probe, federal investigators became so alarmed by Fang’s behavior and activities that around 2015 they alerted Swalwell to their concerns — giving him what is known as a defensive briefing,” the report continued. “Swalwell immediately cut off all ties to Fang, according to a current U.S. intelligence official, and he has not been accused of any wrongdoing.”

Remember when Democrat Vice President Al Gore was caught with suitcases full of bribe money from China?

Remember how the media and Democrat Party demanded that Clinton and Gore resign?

The Chinese have been buying Democrats for years.

The fact that Nancy Pelosi knew about Eric Swalwell’s ties to an alleged Chinese spy and still put him on the Intelligence Committee shows Democrats’ complete refusal to recognize the threat China poses to our democracy.

z~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

More than that. Shows they’re on board with it.

Eric Swalwell needs to name names - all of 'em. NOT just Nancy...

Then Nancy needs to have some 'reporter' ask her a damn question about what flavor ice cream... so we all know the press is still whoring for democrats.

I have no doubt that he's not the only person in our government who's GETTING RICH off Chinese corruption!... And the reason he was pissed off at Trump! IMHO!

Don't forget the 1 1/2 BILLION that was given to the Bidens.

“congressional leaders knew” That means Republicans and Democrats. They all have their dirt so they better keep their mouths shut. Feinstein had her problems aired. Cindy McCain revealed that everyone knew about Epstein. Hell half of them were probably his clients. Durham has been given two more years to investigate. He will come up with twice as much evidence as he has not produced. 0 x 0 = 0.

That says a lot more about how traitorous “Congressional Leadership” is, than it does about you and your chinese spy ‘girlfriend’, Eric.

That means those "congressional leaders" knew he was compromised and that he would do what he was told to do.
