A damning photograph has surfaced showing Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) meeting with a top Chinese Communist Party official in 2013, raising explosive new questions about the extent of his ties to America's greatest adversary.
The unearthed image shows Swalwell sitting across from the now-former Deputy Consul General at China's San Francisco consulate - a meeting that took place years before the public learned about his compromising relationship with suspected Chinese spy Christine Fang.
"This is very disturbing," said a Republican House source who reviewed the photo. "How many secret meetings did Swalwell have with CCP operatives? What did they discuss? The American people deserve answers."
The timing couldn't be more suspicious. In 2013, Swalwell was a rising Democrat star who had just been elected to Congress and would soon land a coveted spot on the House Intelligence Committee - giving him access to America's most classified secrets.
Pattern of Chinese Infiltration
This bombshell revelation adds another disturbing chapter to Swalwell's already compromised record with Chinese intelligence operations. Remember, this is the same congressman who:
- Had an intimate relationship with suspected Chinese spy Christine Fang
- Allowed Fang to raise money for his campaigns
- Let Fang place an intern in his congressional office
- Somehow kept his Intelligence Committee seat despite the scandal
"Eric Swalwell has been compromised by Chinese intelligence for over a decade. How is this man still in Congress, let alone on committees dealing with national security?"
The newly surfaced photo proves Swalwell's Chinese connections run even deeper than previously known. While he's spent years attacking President Trump as a "Russian asset," Swalwell himself appears to have been cultivated by Chinese operatives since his early days in Congress.
With Republicans now in control and the Trump administration prioritizing America's competition with China, expect this scandal to get the full investigation it deserves. Patriots are asking: How many other Democrats have been compromised by the CCP? And why did the FBI and intelligence agencies allow Swalwell to keep his security clearance?
It's time for Eric Swalwell to come clean about his decade-long relationship with Chinese intelligence - or step down from Congress entirely.
