Open secret in congressional circles. Just sat on to be weaponized at the right moment.


Curious how much we paid out from thrle slush fund to keep it quiet.

Swalwell is an order of magnitude larger sleaze than Gaetz, and he’s a CCP spy as well. No comparison Kevin!

From what I can tell the allegations around Swalwell have more teeth. McCarthy is just trying to get a jab in on Gaetz. Unnecessary. He is irrelevant to the Swalwell story.

It’s past time to expose those in the slush fund use. Let’s flush the toilet.

Wouldn’t shock me that they invited McCarthy on to be interviewed knowing he’d drag Gartz’ name into it - it’s no secret they hate each other. How long has McCarthy been out of office at this point?

"Every member in Congress knows not to let any young staffer around Swalwell or Matt Gaetz, it's not a secret there," McCarthy said.

He couldn't say it without throwing out Gaetz' name too, huh?

Seems sus.

Kevin just thought this would be a clever backhanded way to slam Gaetz.


Definitely saw his opening to take a cheap shot at the guy who took him down.

Willie Brown commenting on any other politician’s sexual misconduct is fricking hilarious. I bet what that dude has done over the years makes Swalwell’s behavior look tame.

So the democrats knew about his behavior, still endorsed him, and turned on him as soon as he got caught......did I miss anything?


They didn’t turn on him because he got caught. They turned on him because he started becoming a threat to Golden Boy Gavin and his ‘28 run. If he doesn’t start making gains in his run for governor pointing out what Gav has done wrong and sucking the oxygen out of the room for the last year of his governorship none of this ever comes out.

You don’t have a history of doing shite like this as a national figure and only just now get “caught” when you’re running for governor and making the termed out guy who happens to be the family favorite that wants a promotion look bad (despite of what he did to himself to do that. )
