The Conservative Cave

The files reveal detailed evidence that the California Democrat — a one-time presidential candidate and recent gubernatorial hopeful — received illegal campaign donations from Christine Fang. She is the infamous Chinese national long suspected of working for Beijing’s intelligence services.

For a politician who spent every waking moment of the Trump years loudly warning about foreign interference, the picture that emerges is far more compromising than anything previously made public.

The newly released memos lay out a series of troubling findings that go well beyond anything the American people previously were made aware of.

FBI investigators appear to have developed clear evidence that Fang funneled illegal campaign donations to Swalwell by routing the money through U.S. citizen conduits. Agents tracked multiple instances in which she reimbursed donors or used straw contributors to conceal the foreign source of the funds. 

Fang also repeatedly referred interns to both Swalwell’s campaign and his congressional office. The bureau initially viewed those placements as a potential quid pro quo arrangement in which access and positions were exchanged for the illegal donations she was facilitating.

Oh, and as for the most nauseating revelations, Swalwell himself admitted to FBI agents during interviews that he had engaged in a sexual relationship with Fang on multiple occasions, including one incident in which she showed up at his door and the two “hooked up.”

A man who wanted to be President of the United States and very likely could have been the next governor of California basically whored himself out to China. No wonder he was so beloved by his Democrat colleagues.

Early oversight of the matter involved disgraced prosecutor Jack Smith, who would later gain national prominence for using flimsy evidence to attempt to prosecute President Trump on two separate occasions (one for the classified documents case, another for the 2020 election interference-January 6 case).
