HUGE! Democrats Schiff, Pelosi Turn on Swalwell, Withdraw Endorsements, Call on Him to Drop Out of California Governor’s Race Amid Sexual Assault Allegations
Creepy Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell is going down in flames.
Swalwell is currently running as a Democrat in California’s gubernatorial race.
As TGP reported earlier on Friday, The San Francisco Chronicle published a story about a woman who claimed that Democrat Eric Swalwell sexually assaulted her twice.
The woman, who worked as a staffer in Swalwell’s office for two years, told The San Francisco Chronicle that Swalwell began pursuing her just weeks after she was hired at the age of 21 in 2019.
“A woman who worked for nearly two years for Rep. Eric Swalwell, a leading candidate for California governor, said she had sexual encounters with him while he was her boss and alleged he twice sexually assaulted her when she was too intoxicated to consent,” the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Swalwell denied the allegations.
“These allegations are false and come on the eve of an election against the frontrunner for governor,” he said.
“For nearly 20 years, I have served the public — as a prosecutor and a congressman and have always protected women,” Swalwell said.
”I will defend myself with the facts and where necessary bring legal action,” he added.
Swalwell’s lawyers also intimidated the alleged sexual assault victim and sent her a cease-and-desist letter, accusing her of making false statements.

Democrat Senator Adam Schiff (CA) turned on Swalwell on Friday.
Schiff withdrew his endorsement of Swalwell and called on him to drop out of California’s gubernatorial race.
“I have read the San Francisco Chronicle’s account and I am deeply distressed by its allegations. This woman was brave to come forward, and we should take her story seriously,” Schiff said.
“I am withdrawing my endorsement immediately, and believe that he should withdraw from the race,” Schiff added.

Swalwell’s campaign staffers resigned and he lost other endorsements after the San Francisco Chronicle published the story about the sexual assault allegations.

Swalwell’s problems with women are coming back to haunt him.
It was previously alleged that Swalwell became compromised after he fell for Chinese spy and honeypot Fang Fang.
Recall that last year, conservative reporter Nick Sortor confronted Eric Swalwell about his sexual degeneracy and corruption.
We were going to wait until just before the California Governor primary to NUKE Eric Swalwell out of the race with my recordings of him inebriated with lobbyists at dinner
But now that his DEMOCRAT friends are calling on him to DROP OUT, I guess I don’t have to wait!
Stay… pic.twitter.com/u0vepnwemn
