ERIC SWALWELL REFERRED TO DOJ FOR CRIMINAL PROBE!
mountaineer:
As a Californian congressman, Swalwell's principal residence must be in California. Congressional representatives must be "inhabitants" of their state.
Swalwell does not own or rent a home in California under his name. ... In a April 18, 2022, Deed of Trust for a home loan on his property at 209 S Street NE in Washington, DC (purchased for about $1.2 million in 2020 as a duplex), Swalwell declared it his "principal residence" as a loan condition.

We're missing details...
* What was the monetary difference between minimum down-payments of an O/O ("OWNER OCCUPANT") vs "INVESTOR" purchase?
* What is the difference between the interest rates for O/O vs/ Investment
IMO, this is an example of the similarities between MLB pitchers throwing away multi-million $$$ career to gain $2K for conspiring to cheat gamblers who bet on the next pitch being a ball outside the strike zone.
S.T.U.P.I.D.!

Eric Swalwell Considering a Run for California Governor
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is reportedly considering a run for California governor — a possible foil to frontrunner Katie Porter.
Two anonymous sources close to the congressman told MSNBC that he has been considering a play for the Golden State governor’s mansion with a possible announcement as early as next week.
“Swalwell declined to comment when reached by MSNBC, but a source close to the congressman, who asked to remain anonymous to discuss the private discussions, said Swalwell allies had asked him to run ‘to fill a “fighter/protector” role’ in the mold of Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom,” reported MSNBC.
Should Swalwell throw his hat in the ring for governor, he will be up against former Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA), former Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and businessman Stephen Cloobeck. Sen. Alex Padilla (D-CA) has already announced he would not be running for governor.
“Earlier on Thursday, a Trump administration official referred the congressman to the Department of Justice for a potential federal criminal investigation over allegations of mortgage and tax fraud,” added MSNBC
Swalwell said in response, “As the most vocal critic of Donald Trump over the last decade and as the only person who still has a surviving lawsuit against him, the only thing I am surprised about is that it took him this long to come after me.”
A 2020 report in Axios noted that Swalwell had ties to an alleged Chinese spy, Christine Fang (a.k.a. “Fang Fang”), who had reportedly been cultivating relationships with California politicians on behalf of the Chinese government for years. Fang helped fundraise for Swalwell’s 2014 congressional election bid and helped place an intern in his office. Swalwell cut ties with her in 2015 upon advice from U.S. intelligence.
In 2021, Breitbart News reported that “the U.S. Intelligence Community currently has in its possession a classified report that includes intricate and intimate details of the nature of the relationship” between Swalwell and Fang.
In 2023, the House Ethics Committee concluded the investigation into his relationship with Fang with no further censuring.
Swalwell has denied having any inappropriate relationship with Fang, maintaining that he was a target of the Chinese government.

California needs to be divided up into 2 more states. One for the wacka doodles, the other two for people with IQ's over room temperature.

Swalwell threatens federal investigators over DOJ mortgage fraud referral
November 15, 2025 | Kevin Haggerty
California Rep. Eric Swalwell’s (D) response to a criminal referral raised the question of potential further charges: “… sounds like obstruction of justice …”
A growing list of referrals has demonstrated a trend with Democratic Party officials and alleged mortgage fraud. As Swalwell found himself included with the likes of New York Attorney General Letitia James and California Sen. Adam Schiff, the lawmaker was found threatening President Donald Trump and his administration with retaliatory subpoenas.
During an appearance on MSNBC, Swalwell, who’d brought up the allegations against James, Schiff and Federal Reserve Gov. Lisa Cook, promised action against the White House as he said, “When we are in the majority, we will have subpoena power and accountability will happen. Bill Pulte and any other lawless official who is carrying out these political prosecutions on behalf of Donald Trump, they should familiarize themselves with the Judiciary Committee room because they’re going to be spending a lot of time there answering questions and I sure hope everything they did was above board.”
The stance had prompted Article III Project founder Mike Davis to suggest on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” that fraud allegations may only be part of his trouble.
