Swalwell Suspends Campaign for California Governor

Monday, April 13, 2026

Eric Swalwell: "I am suspending my campaign for Governor. To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I've made in my past. I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made -- but that's my fight, not a campaign's."

My response to Eric Swalwell. And trust me this is as sincere as I can be.

Swalwell suspends campaign for CA Governor

Good! One less Dem to split the vote (which would allow Repubs to waltz into office with the idiotic top-two primary system Californians have enacted).

You can always tell the Nazi's, they will complain about it.

... I am suspending my campaign for Governor. ...

Good.

At this point, I agree with what fmr Spkr Pelosi told him,

thehill.com

... "This extremely sensitive matter must be appropriately investigated with full transparency and accountability," she continued. "As I discussed with Congressman Swalwell, it is clear that this is best done outside of a gubernatorial campaign." ...

According to his own questioning during the Kavanaugh hearing he should walk straight to prison without a trial. The resident trans, Moder8 used to worship the ground he walked on. Figures.

@#7 ... According to his own questioning during the Kavanaugh hearing ...

Looks like there will be an investigation in the House, so I'm sure the GOP will be asking tough questions ... ...

House Ethics Committee investigating sexual misconduct allegations against Swalwell
www.pbs.org

... The House Ethics Committee has begun an investigation into whether Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., engaged in sexual misconduct toward an employee working under his supervision, the panel announced Monday.

The announcement comes one day after Swalwell suspended his campaign for California governor after the emergence of allegations that he continues to deny.

Democrats quickly abandoned support for Swalwell after allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman twice, including when she worked for him. The reports published in the San Francisco Chronicle and later by CNN came as Swalwell began to emerge as a leading contender in the crowded race. ...

Swalwell has been convicted of nothing. He is accused. And considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Like your Dear Leader.

You worship the fat orange blob who was twice impeached by Congress and convicted in a court of law of 32 felonies and even adjudicated legally as a sexual offender and predator.

Hypocrite much?

They held his infidelities over his head for 9years until he was out of line.

Democrat Elites are tyrannical in their authoritarianism.

They don't care who votes, they control the nomination.

Trump got women drunk, strangled them, then raped them??

Yes epstein dealt in the drug underworld as well. And the DEA was investigating it.

But now the trump admin won't share info about it. Why is that?

For historical education - the parties chose their own nominees up til a few decades ago.

It was a system designed to avoid a situation like we have now, where massive of brainwashed idiots elect a russia asset to the white house, where he does everything he can to reduce the power of the USA and increase the power of our enemies.
