Kayleigh McEnany was not playing around this morning when asked about Rep. Eric Swalwell and his China spy scandal:
“For 4 years, President Trump was accused of being a Russian operative. It’s absolutely breathtakingly remarkable that the entity that was under control of a foreign power was the Democrats, including Eric Swalwell. Democrats were accusing the Right of something they were doing all along. It was never Russia and the Republicans, it was the Democrats and China.”
@PressSec on the Swalwell/China news: "For 4 years, President Trump was accused of being a Russian operative. It's absolutely breathtakingly remarkable that the entity that was under control of a foreign power was the Democrats, including Eric Swalwell…… 1/2

2/2 ……Democrats were accusing the Right of something they were doing all along. It was never Russia and the Republicans, it was the Democrats and China."

Yet he still has his security clearance:
Eric Swalwell couldn’t get a security clearance if he were a civilian
No way he should be on the House Intelligence Committee

And Dems are just going to pretend that this isn’t a big deal?
with all the BS we heard for 4 years about Jared's security clearance, is there a single Dem calling out Swalwell? https://t.co/9MEqAUtROs

“. . .the oxymoron of the century”:
“Swalwell did express confidence that he will maintain his seat on the House Intelligence Commitee.” // #Swalwell on the “Intelligence” Committee has got to be the oxymoron of the century. https://t.co/quN6tL2I3A

If we had to guess, the sex-scandal part of this is gong to get a whole lot worse for everyone involved:

And, eventually, people will start going to jail:
Wait until the FBI starts indicting US residents/citizens for acting as Chinese agents. It's coming. Swalwell story is interesting primarily as indication of MSS scale-ambition (topic I wrote on here https://t.co/o8aJAYabtN and here back in July https://t.co/0BmU7XSpZ2
