Eric Swalwell Says Democrats Are Going to Target Private Citizens Who Have Worked with Trump
 
Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell of California told “CNN News Central” co-host Kate Bolduan on Monday that House Democrats plan to go after private citizens working with the Trump administration following the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey.

A federal grand jury indicted Comey on charges of lying to Congress and obstruction of a congressional proceeding on Thursday over testimony given during a September 2020 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. Swalwell expressed confidence that Democrats would take control of the House in the 2026 midterm elections.
 
“Well, first, we are making it clear that we’re going into the majority a year from now,” Swalwell told Bolduan. “We have every intention to do that, and so we will bring oversight, accountability. We will subpoena the Department of Justice, but also private actors who have done these drug deals with the administration -- college campuses, entertainment companies, law firms -- and so accountability is coming.”

“And so, one, it’s all coming out. Two, I hope that deters people from doing more of these deals, these one-offs with the president,” Swalwell continued. “One other point, though, on Comey, Kate, this happened when Donald Trump was president. So if you’re trying to tell me this is not politically motivated, the statement that they’re referring to where he allegedly lied, Donald Trump was president, so why didn’t you indict him then? The fact that he’s indicting him now just makes it look even more politically motivated, and so I’m pretty confident that this will either be dismissed or Mr. Comey will be acquitted by a jury of his peers.”

I wonder if that includes Fang Fang?

Anyway ---

What law provides the legal basis for persecuting a citizen who worked WITH Donald Trump and exactly what does "with" entail?  "With" could mean writing positive comments about him on the internet.

In other words, they will unleash their own inner fascists, by doing precisely what they are inaccurately accusing Trump of doing.

So, the Marxists are going to unleash a campaign of terror among the civil population to achieve their means?

That Chinese Communist Party girlfriend was quite an influence on him.

Exactly. Who's the fascist now, Fartwell?

Marxist or fascist.  The only real difference is the degree of racism and the fashion sense.


I am reminded of the opening scene of Netflix’ movie the 3 Body Problem (I’ll try to post a clip later).  That encapsulates what marxists and their fellow-travelers the fascists do to people with whom they disagree politically.

Thank you for admitting to being guilty of what you accused Trump of.

[Free Vulcan]

He bang bang Fang Fang's tang tang with his wang wang and now he sounds full Chinese communist.

Here's the scene I was thinking about.  This is what marxists do to people with whom they disagree politically, and this is what the democrats will do to us if they get the chance:
