The shocking confession was made during a Russian state press conference, where Reade was sitting next to alleged Kremlin spy—and pal—Maria Butina.

And I just really so appreciate Maria [Butina] and...

Stop. It is more than a little painful to read about his “moral center” that is a PR image not reality.”He sexually assaulted me in 1993 when...

Eric Swalwell of having a “sexual relationship with a Chinese spy” — leading Democrats to unsuccessfully demand that the remark be purged from the record.

It was worse than we thought. It turns out that Hunter Biden’s drug enslavement, sex addiction, and penchant for Russkie hookers didn’t stop there. It was probably worse than his hinky “big guy” business deals, diamond “gifts,” and unearned Ukrainian paydays. There was a Chinese spy involved. Just like Democrat Eric Swalwell’s Fang Fang. Hold on, I’ve got to catch my breath. Be honest: You thought it would be that Putin inserted, so to speak, hookers who would double back and sting the first son. But those chickens haven’t come home to roost — at least as far as we...

Breitbart News published an explosive exclusive report in August 2021 regarding a classified report indicating Swalwell was in an intimate sexual relationship with a Chinese spy named Fang...

VIDEO This CNN panel just can't understand why Kevin McCarthy has tossed Eric Swalwell off the House Intelligence Committee. Or at least they PRETEND not to understand why. This video serves as a refresher course for them as to why, namely Chinese spy FANG FANG getting information from Swalwell via the time tested method of BANG BANG.

We’ve already gotten our “OOF” moment of the day and it took place at a House hearing when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene responded to Rep.
