House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) called for Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) to be removed from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on Thursday because he poses a national security threat due to his past interactions with an accused Chinese spy.
Axios reported Swalwell had a friendship with Fang Fang, letting her bundle fundraising money, and placing an intern inside his office. Once it was brought to Swalwell’s attention about her real intentions, he claims to have severed all ties with her.
Fang was being under investigation of working for China’s Ministry of State Security, but the probe stopped once she suddenly left the country to go back to China.
“The Intel committee is different than any other committee. It is the most difficult committee to get on. It’s only selected by the leaders of both parties. He got on as a sophomore. How could he do that? They were in the minority at the time, not very many seats. He got on as a sophomore and now, he says, that Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff knew of it. This is a national security threat,” McCarthy said.
McCarthy pointed to how the Intel Committee does not meet in regular hearing rooms because of the sensitive nature of the intelligence reports they discuss. Swalwell has continued to not say what type of relationship he had with Fang.
“And now we have Eric Swalwell whose been swindled by the Chinese but what’s even more interesting here is why did he attack the American Director of Intelligence John Ratcliffe’s report, talking about the expansion of China spying throughout?…This man should not be in the Intel committee,” McCarthy continued. “He’s jeopardizing national security. What is being said in those meetings inside the SCIF that we don’t want other people to hear or listen? You can’t not, you can not take in your watch. You cannot take in your phone, but here, we have an individual, who Nancy Pelosi, this is the real question. When did Nancy Pelosi know of this and why did she maintain him on the committee? Adam Schiff, who has spent four years as chair, worried about the foreign intervention into our country, knowingly keep an individual on the committee, if he knew as Swalwell says that he was with a Chinese individual who was a spy, who helped him run for Congress.”
Eric Swalwell is one of the few members of Congress with a high level of integrity. This incident was addressed and acted upon when it became known to him, as your own report indicates. Nothing here! You’ll have to find another fishing expedition. You have 40 days!!
You are a fool Nancy
Yes he is jeopardizing national security and should br removed from all committees. Actually he needs to resign.
He is a total disgrace to this country and should be removed from Congress. When you consider his remarks on the President and Russia and see what he has done, he should be considered a spy for PRC! Execution is too good for this creep.
Yes he should be removed.
It’s time to take it the Democrats BLM is bullshit it’s a cover for a Marxist takeover Antifa is a terrorist group sponsor by Democrats . How is I get a ticket in a Democratic state by a speed camera for going to fast in a school zone when school is closed . But in the same state you can protest about a career criminal getting while resisting arrest riot , loot , burn building cop cars attack cops and nothing happens to you . Am I in a dream of bizarro world .
All these Criminals need held accountable. Really They’re all Guilty and Trump went thru ____ and Nothings being done about the Biden family and Eric Swalwell..
It’s disgusting what this world has come to with all the disingenuous people & no sense of principles
The answer to the question: “Is Eric Swalwell a national security threat” is another question: “Is Eric Swalwell a big mouth who will spill the beans to enhance his importance?” The answer to both questions is “Yes”!
He needs to put peter back in his pants and go.
When I served my country in the armed forces we had a name for what he done. TRAITOR AND THE PUNISHMENT WAS TRIAL BY MITILARY TRIBUNAL. And if found guilty he was subject to several sentences including fireing squad.
This BOZO is a TRAITOR & should be looking at a firing squad!

Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my apple ipad and tested
to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just so she
can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now broken and she has 83 views.
I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
My programmer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on numerous websites for about a year and am concerned about switching
to another platform. I have heard good things about blogengine.net.
Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?
Any kind of help would be really appreciated!
