House Intel Republicans not told about Eric Swalwell’s relationship with Chinese spy
“Did Schiff and [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi know?
Swallwell runs around claiming Trump was an agent of Russia, when he himself was sleeping with a Chinese spy.
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Swalwell, who represents a California district south of Oakland, received an FBI “defensive briefing” in 2015 on operative Fang Fang, but most if not all Republicans on the elite committee weren’t told that a colleague had been targeted by China.

I have no idea if we should be concerned about this or not, but it should get the same kind of press coverage that all that Russia BS got.
And Hillary's e-mails!!
This---piece of propaganda flotsam is yet another distraction away from the 'coiffured hair' distractor.
Matters not. Follow the money from the Russians, Saudis, Turks and Chinese through the NRA through the GOP and through the 'coiffured hair' crowd.
I don't get what this is supposed to prove...It seems that she left after scrutiny and then he was put on the committee...
Meanwhile, it seems DeSantis is in real trouble as they got a false warrant against the scientist.
GOP has issues. Money issues. This is another deflection. What Eric Trump said in 2014 is true. The question to be answered is from whom and why.
GOP is afraid somebody might look at spending, like at the border and what else will turn up. A lot of dirty money running around.
Hard to say what the new AG might look at. Some people have very much to be worried about. You could start with the NRA and from there into GOP campaigns and from there.................use your imagination.
We have a maniac trying to overthrow the results of our duly conducted elections , but the right is worried about Eric Swalwell.
Astonishing .
And Hillary's e-mails!!
Intelligence Committee member screwing and being compromised by a Chinese spy
Progressives giving him 'attaboys'.....no 'biggy' according tot them
Every word of that post is BULLSHIT.
Funny, I don't remember you being nearly this upset about Maria Butina . And Maria got quite a bit higher on the ladder before being found out.
The NY post is nothing but a trashy right wing tabloid akin to the National Enquirer.
There is ZERO evidence that Swallwell had any sort of relationship with her and as the article states "Fang, also known as Christine Fang, returned to China in mid-2015".
So as they said this supposed "spy" "reportedly fundraised for Swalwell’s 2014 re-election campaign before he joined the Intelligence Committee in 2015."
So what's the story here? China "targeted" Swallwell is the claim, but apparently right wing media thinks because Republican legislators weren't told about it then what?
This is a sad and shameful hit piece but just par for the course for right wing conspiracy theory nut balls.
Right? I mean at minimum there should exist a picture of the two of them in the same room. That kind of minimal association was grounds for suspicion in the Russia investigations, after all.
Oh wait! I found one.
And look: She's still Facebook friends with the family. That's sweet.
Dad even liked a picture of her back in March:
And she liked a picture of the Congressman in November 2016, a year after he says they cut ties. (by the way the fact that he says they cut ties means they had ties at some point. Logic!)
So she was a friend as of yesterday. Today, she's not anymore. Crazy, right?
Yep. No relationship at all. Zero evidence. And nothing remotely suspicious. Probably.
Which has the following caption in the Axios article:
Oh YA, that there is a fucking smoking gun!
She was supposed to be some honey pot spy and I meant "relationship" in that context of which there is ZERO evidence in that article of there being anything more than her work for his campaign as no doubt dozens and dozens of other people did as well.
Oh, well that fucking proves it then! /s
Where in the article or anywhere else did he say he "cut ties"? I read it through twice and still couldn't find your spurious claim, and that's besides the fact that even if he had it's a stretch to claim "ties" meant an intimate relationship where intelligence could have been compromised. What a weak sniveling attack.
Baseless trash seed followed up with baseless trash comments from right wing hacks.
Nothing in anything you posted shows that they had any sort of intimate relationship which is what the sad NY post is implying and some dumb shits on the right are getting their panties in a bunch over.
Here is more evidence this is just a trash hit piece.
Yeah, and Donald Trump hasn't said he's not a demon turd beast from the bowels' of hell, so I guess we should just go ahead and assume it, right? I mean, he fits the profile...
It's in the axios report.
But hey, if there's nothing there, then there's no reason to be upset about it, right?
Actually, the Axios article states:
So the source for that claim is an anonymous intelligence official, NOT Swalwell.
FAIL.
No worries, misrepresenting 'facts' seems to be all one needs around here.
Really? Please link as I was unable to find it. Maybe I'm just incompetent as I've gone through both articles and have yet to find that quote you claim from Swalwell.
I found one quote from his representatives that states "Rep. Swalwell, long ago, provided information about this person — whom he met more than eight years ago, and whom he hasn’t seen in nearly six years — to the FBI. To protect information that might be classified, he will not participate in your story."
I did find this, which you're perhaps misusing claiming it was his own words, which of course is a total lie, [Deleted]
"What happened: Amid a widening counterintelligence probe, federal investigators became so alarmed by Fang's behavior and activities that around 2015 they alerted Swalwell to their concerns — giving him what is known as a defensive briefing. Swalwell immediately cut off all ties to Fang, according to a current U.S. intelligence official, and he has not been accused of any wrongdoing."
Did that say that Swalwell himself said he "cut ties"? No, it did not. It said investigators made the assessment that "ties" were cut off, which of course would include her leaving his campaign team, but there was no actual evidence that, as you falsely claimed, "he says they cut ties". No such quote or assertion was made by Swalwell, but of course, irresponsible Trump sycophants have no honor or credibility so few were waiting for actual truth, but no doubt many worthless brown nosing Trump sycophants had their mouths open and ready for the next serving of bullshit which was regularly provided by their right wing media masters. [Deleted]
Did 'we' notice that 'the right' here has been spewing lies for at least that long?
[deleted]
Nah, he didn't know Fang at all.
Keep denying the obvious. I guess every politician grants internships based on the recommendation of people they don't know.
Oh, I almost forgot "Russia, Russia, Russia".
ah, he didn't know Fang at all.
It's statements like that make NT worthwhile. Such a blatant denial of reality.
He can't say whether he had sex or not with her because it's "classified."
That might be the worst excuse ever.
Who, Trump? Which occurrence and with whom?
Where does the seed even imply that he had sex with her Sean?
Sex is a political GOPER thing. When they do it--it must be dirty.
So you don't have sex?
I presume that since you don't have an answer to my question, your comment was bullshit.
I don't have to presume anything. I know your question is bullshit. Either you don't know what the word imply means, you've ignored all of the reporting on this story or you are dishonestly trying to make am irrelevant point based on cherry picked data, (focusing on the wording of one article, while pretending all other sources don't exist) .
I didn't say YOU presumed anything Sean. IF, after all your time here, you could manage to PROPERLY copy and paste a block quote, everyone would see that fact.
Really? How so Sean. You said:
Either you pulled the implication that Stalwell 'may' have had sex with her out of your nether region or you can point to where the article implies it.
I'll take none of the above for $1000 Alex.
Anyone who has read the seed AND the Axios article KNOWS that it doesn't say a word about Stalwell having sex with ANYONE.
So why the fuck are you blathering Sean. Your comment is pure fabricated bullshit, just man up and admit it.
There may be a reason for never quoting... Paraphrases are so much easier to warp.
Did I claim you did? Let me bring you back to reality. I'll make it very simple. I'm emphasizing I don't have to "presume" anything like you do, I KNOW your post is bullshit. Try reading what I wrote again. Get it? You presume, I know...
e ad the seed AND the Axios article KNOWS that it doesn't say a word about Stalwell having sex with ANYONE.
Imagine being so desperate to make silly point that it hinges on the nonsensical claim that the seed and the axios article are the only reporting on the story that exists. Talk about being an ostrich.
Yo ur comment is pure fabricated bullshit, just man up and admit it.
You are like the Washington Generals. Step up your game. It's too easy.
Yes Sean, I presume you know that your comment is bullshit.
Imagine all your blathering when all you have to do is post a fucking link that supports your 'sex with Chinese spy' bullshit. Talk about being deflective.
You are like Rudy, fabricating bullshit you are unable to support.
Bit over your head, huh?
I see some local left wingers are in total denial about this bimbo.
Of course they are. They still can't get past their "Russia, Russia, Russia" BS.
China is a much bigger threat to the US than Russia is; and the Democrats are aiding and abetting them!
The only thing rational persons are questioning is what the fuck this has to do with anything today?
The facts so far:
Fang allegedly had two affairs with two mayors.
Fang worked for Swalwells campaign in 2014.
Fang went back to China in 2015.
Fang "liked" a photo of Swalwell on Facebook.
Swalwell joined the Intelligence Committee in 2015.
Republicans claim they were not informed when Swalwell was about Fang.
Where is the story here? There isn't even an allegation of any misconduct, no claim that anything was compromised, just a whole crap load of conjecture from conspiracy theory nut jobs.
Benghazi!
It's there MO. They see dots and insist that they connect and create a fantasy about what they mean.
I see.... election fraud.. no, no, I see Chinese spies, no wait, it's definitely democrats colluding with China... /s
Russia, Russia, Russia!
You left out several "facts"
See post 7.2.
Fang recommended an intern that joined his staff. I am sure the intern never relayed any information- or continued to try and influence Swalwell after Fang's departure.
But "Russia, Russia, Russia" the fuck away. Democrats are aiding and abetting China the true #1 enemy to the US. The Chinese are more than capable of taking advantage of the Democrats' blatant stupidity.
Here's a question for you - no need for a public answer.
When did you last see a leftish complaint about Russia? When did you last see a rightish complaint about leftish complaints about Russia?
Do the latter seem more frequent?
