We noticed that Rep. Eric Swalwell didn’t include Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in his tweet, but it looks like it went out before she dropped a bomb on him in a Homeland Security Committee hearing this afternoon. In any case, Swalwell had thought of a great Tax Day joke but a day late, so he had to reword it a bit before it was time to hit that Tweet button.
Amending my taxes to claim the free rent inside the empty heads of Tucker Carlson and Kevin McCarthy.

See? It was too good not to post.
Don't forget to add your Chinese dependent.

They should claim you as a dependent.

It's so funny when Eric tries to sound righteous. Bless his heart.

Does that offset the money you’re getting from China?

Lame response.

Here's a crazy thought, sir. As a prominent person, you're well placed to set an example for the rest of us on how to raise the tone of our national dialog. More about issues, less about personal attacks. J/s

Wow, they really hurt your feelings, huh?

Had millions of viewers not been watching Tucker last night Eric would have not had his feelings hurt.😂😂😂

You just make making fun of you so easy.

Make sure you claim Ukraine as a dependent.

This tweet was approved by the Chinese communist party.

Weak.

If you didn't do anything wrong, you wouldn't be on here trying to defend your actions but instead doing the work for your constituents. Obviously Tucker hit a chord which triggered you to respond. Cry baby
— Scott McLaurin (@McLaurinScott2) April 19, 2023
Again, you talk about Tucker a lot. So much so, you posted about him 2x today so far. I think you're in denial and your actions are helping make my case.

You got roasted… move on!!

Is this what has Swalwell thinking about Tucker Carlson?
Tucker just ENDED Eric Swalwell's career with most savage 30 seconds of pure roast ever broadcast on TV:
"When he's not shagging Chinese spies, he gets to travel all over the world at his donors' expense… If he wants to he can hang out on the beach in a Hawaiian shirt with an… pic.twitter.com/E75RnaVV5M

“If he wants to he can hang out on the beach in a Hawaiian shirt with an umbrella drink, gold chains, and a chest wig.”
Swalwell will never top the joke that was running for president in 2020 and thinking he had a shot.
