One of the best parts of covering X for a living is how the things people write, or post, have a stubborn way of staying around and showing up at the most inopportune times ... for bad people. Especially bad people who have spent years accusing others of the nasty things they've been doing.
Much like Eric Swalwell.
Yes, we're covering Swalwell a lot, but he has really and truly earned the dragging he is getting, and then some.
This post from 2016 may well be the most significant piece of foreshadowing we have ever seen on X, and that's really saying a lot. Take a gander at this:

Ha.
HA ha.
HA HA ha.
HA HA HA ha.
Told you, guys.
And the officer making the arrest? That's his brother.
It's almost as if Swalwell himself was daring the world to catch him. Granted, we're pretty sure he never thought anyone would, but that's neither here nor there.
This is what we call foreshadowing https://t.co/8dk215QA2r

Ain't it though?
Family bonding? Looks more like light bondage. But unlike his victims, at least Swalwell consented.

It's almost too perfect.
