Republicans clear Swalwell

Missed last week in all the budget turmoil was that the Republicans cleared Swalwell of any ethics issues. Well, that was a big nothing burger. The dirty Republicans kicked Swalwell off the intelligence committee for.. well, apparently nothing.

When it comes to using the federal government to punish people for their political leanings the republicans need to look no further than the mirror. Of course these same people thought Trump’s Ukraine shakedown was ‘no big deal’.

The House Ethics Committee concluded a two-year investigation into Rep. Eric Swalwell’s (D-Calif.) interactions with a suspected Chinese spy and determined that it will take no further action.

The committee informed Swalwell of the decision in a private letter dated Monday and said it did not plan on releasing the letter publicly.

“As you are aware, on April 9, 2021, the Committee on Ethics (Committee) informed you that it had determined to investigate allegations raised in the complaint that you may have violated House Rules, laws, or other standards of conduct in connection with your interactions with Ms. Christine Fang. The Committee will take no further action in this matter,” committee chairman Michael Guest (R-Miss.) and ranking member Susan Wild (D-Pa.) wrote in the letter
