A sus­pect­ed Chi­nese intel­li­gence oper­a­tive, (aka. com­mu­nist spy), got so close to the Demo­c­ra­t­ic law­mak­er that the FBI had to inter­vene to clue him in to the fact that he was being exploit­ed. Swal­well was a 2020 Demo­c­ra­t­ic can­di­date for the White House, as you may recall.

Through cam­paign fundrais­ing, net­work­ing, per­son­al charis­ma, roman­tic or sex­u­al rela­tion­ships, Fang manip­u­lat­ed politi­cians to gain prox­im­i­ty to polit­i­cal power.

Swal­well was among Fang’s “most sig­nif­i­cant tar­gets,” with the rela­tion­ship start­ing when he was a coun­cil mem­ber for Dublin City, Calif, — this being an indi­ca­tion of the long game Chi­na is engaged in.

As for the fall­out, there were imme­di­ate calls for Swal­well to resign, includ­ing from Richard Grenell, the for­mer Act­ing Direc­tor of Nation­al Intel­li­gence. There was also a call for him to step down from the House Intel­li­gence Com­mit­tee until it can be deter­mined that Chi­na has noth­ing on him they could black­mail him over.

. @ericswalwell is a total hyp­ocrite and should resign in dis­grace. https://t.co/w85P2nJvnz

So Rep Swal­well who spent years say­ing I was an agent of Rus­sia was lit­er­al­ly sleep­ing with a Chi­nese spy at the time. 

You can’t make this stuff up. How can this com­pro­mised individual/moron con­tin­ue to sit on an intel­li­gence com­mit­tee? https://t.co/NkU6F5Ctre

Democ­rats like Swal­well and Fein­stein got the ben­e­fit of defen­sive brief­in­gs when it came to Chi­nese espi­onage against them. Trump did not get this kind of defen­sive brief­ing on Russia.

The Swal­well news basi­cal­ly just con­firms that every­thing the Democ­rats were going after Trump for, they were actu­al­ly just doing themselves.
