Swalwell’s Spy Saga: Congressman Faces Continued Jest

Democratic Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA) faces continued ribbing over allegations of involvement with a Chinese spy.

During a House committee session, Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) took a jab, implying Swalwell’s firsthand knowledge of Chinese penetration into the government due to the alleged romantic involvement.

Swalwell, previously under scrutiny for his connection with Chinese spy Christine Fang, cooperated with FBI investigations and was cleared last May.

However, opponents persist in using the spy allegations to undermine him. This incident adds to Swalwell’s challenges, including prior accusations of misusing campaign funds. The internet reacted sharply to Waltz’s remark, further intensifying Swalwell’s ordeal.
