'Did Fang Fang write this?' Rep. Eric Swalwell's effort to distract from his Chinese spy friend now involves Tucker Carlson

Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell has been spending some time lately on social media clearly attempting to provide distractions from this news:

This weekend’s distraction attempt involved Rep. Swalwell accusing Fox News’ Tucker Carlson of trying to kill people via his commentaries:

How many people did Tucker Carlson try and kill tonight?
