All righty, So, we had an election out in California and a California State Senator, Aisha Wahabb, has won the special election to succeed Democratic former Congressman Eric Swallwell. You'll recall he resigned in April amid allegations of sexual misconduct. With more than ninety five percent of the vote finally counted, Wahab was leading fellow Democrat Melissa Hernandez. She is the president of the Bartboard, the Bay Area Rapid Transit Board, and so Wahab leading Hernandez fifty three to forty seven percent. The Associated Press called the race yesterday afternoon, two days after the election, because that's how long it takes to count in California. A true testament to their education system and the jungle primary bs that they run. Wahab is a progressive mmm. She finished comfortably ahead of Hernandez, although it took two days to figure that out. This was the June primary in the Democrat Party. Outside groups, including the main super pack of the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee, spent millions. Now the Jews, yeah, so a PAK was all in on this one. They spent millions boosting the more moderate Hernandez in the closing weeks of the campaign. But it just was not enough because it is a Democrat primary and the cover charge for entry into the Democrat Party is now apparently anti israel sentiment or anti Semitism writ large, So Wahab won. Wahab's victory echoes recent wins by progressives, you'll notice, and I highlight this story for this reason. This is from Roll Call, which is a Capitol Hill press outfit media outfit, and we noticed this last week or I guess it was last week, maybe two weeks ago when describing the DSA candidates. Now they're just being referred to as progressive because remember, progressive is just a term that Democrats started using when liberal became became toxic, right, because they used to call themselves progressive. That was the whole progressive era, Woodrow Wilson, ring A Bell, worst president ever, right, So they used to call themselves progressives. And then when that got all dirty and sully, that term became toxic. They went with liberal, which then, of course, I mean that was a theft of the term liberal, because the classical liberal is more of a conservative limited government right, personal individual liberty right. So they adopt this liberal word, they steal that one, and they're like, no, no, no, not progressive anymore. Now we're liberals. And then of course people saw that it was all the same policies. That term became toxic and nobody wanted to be called liberal anymore. So they're back to progressive. But now DSA Marxists. They're using the term in order to hide the fact that they are Marxist, and the media is doing them the solid by trying to present the contrast here as progressive versus moderate. Yet if you look at the positions of the people that are running in the campaigns in these primaries and the Democrat primaries, the quote moderates share virtually all of the same policy prescriptions as the quote progressives the Marxists. So the word DSA the Democratic Socialists of America never mentioned in this piece, which I thought was odd because they kept referring to her as progressive. So I had to go and look up the DSA slate of endorsements. And you may want to sit down for this if you're not already seated, but she was, in fact DSAY endorsed. Indeed she was. Yeah, they call her a strong progressive voice in the state legislature, especially for tenants' rights, and she is endorsed by the Working Families Party and Our Revolution. So there you go. Another COMMI victory inside the Democrat Party primary, this for Eric Swalwell's old seat. She will now serve out the rest of Swalwell's term, which ends in January, but she and Hernandez will face off again in November for a full term, for a full two year term in a slightly altered district, because you'll recall, California voters approved a suspension of their own constitution in order to gerrymander even more Democrats into even more seats and rob Republican voters of representation. So there's that. Then we had the FBI executing search warrants targeting Swallwell over the last weekend, and they seized his electronic devices, according to two sources familiar with the matter, which I never know what that means, because now you are familiar with the matter. So I guess you could be a source for CBS to confirm this because you've now been made familiar with the matter. But they told CBS News this is part of a criminal probe into allegations of sexual misconduct by the former lawmaker. One of the warrants was executed Saturday night after Swalwell landed at San Francisco International Airport. The second search warrant targeted his residence in Washington, d C. That was executed on Sunday. They took an iPhone from him when he landed, and they took a Mac pro Apple mac probe. So news of the warrants comes after Swalwell ended his goobernatorial bid and resigned from Congress over the allegations of sexual assault and other misconduct. On Monday, the White House also released declassified documents from the FBI's investigation into Swalwell regarding his alleged relationship. No, it's not alleged anymore, folks, we can drop the alleged part of this because he told the FBI that, yeah, he was knocking boots with Fangfang. Okay, so he did admit to this. It's in the documents. And the ninety seven pages of documents stem from the FBI's investigation into Swalwell and his twenty fifteen relationship with Christine Fang aka Fangfang, a suspected Chinese intelligence operative. Many of the details provided by the administration were already publicly known in Swawell was never charged in the matter. No, he just got a seat on the House Intelligence Committee. Right, Democrats put him on intel. Right. The guy is obviously compromised. So what are the details on that couple of new details? I mean, we did we did know about the allegations. I mean, there were photos after all, so it's pretty clear he knew Fang Fang, but he would never talk about it, and there wasn't really any kind of, you know, deep dive coverage into any of it and whether or not this would potentially make him flippable to the chi cooms. Right, but now after the FBI released the information, now we do know that, yes, he would have been flippable if he wasn't flipped, but he would have been. In fact, there's also some efforts to put in turns into other congress critters' offices Bi Fang Fang, which I'm sure had nothing to do with her work as a chi Coom spy. Remember Diane Feinstein, she had a driver, her chauffeur was a chi Coom spy for years. So this is not this is not beyond the pale of reasonability. Here'll give you some of the details that we learned from the FBI files. Whether you want to hear them or not, you're hearing them all right.

All right, I have to say, this is The New York Post, and I have to say I disagree with the use of the term drug fueled. You'll understand why in a moment. Okay, this according to newly released FBI files that confirm for the first time, the disgraced former congressman got physical physical with Beijing's purported honeypot. The former East Bay congressman had quote physical relations with Christine Fang aka Fangfang on at least two occasions, one for each Fang, according to investigative files made public Monday by the White House Transparency Task Force. On one occasion, Fangfang showed up at Swalwell's apartment late one night, demanding to be led in, with the Democrat admitting that the two quote hooked up after he had taken an ambient. You see why I disagree with the term drug fueled sex romp. It's not that's that is not drug fueling a sex romp. Ambient is unless there's some side effect. I'm unaware of about ambient. I've never taken it, but my understanding is that the side effects are actually quite the opposite of drug fueling. I mean maybe if you called it a drug fueled sleep, right, like you could say that a drug fueled sleep. But we may get a bit of a hint here as to why he is saying that he was on the ambient before the drug fueling. This was his explanation for barely remembering. Yeah, isn't that convenient? So I guess what he He just he like, I guzzled a bunch of ambient and then ding dong, Hey it's fang fang, let's get down dirty Eric, and he's like, okay, and then he just doesn't remember anything. Right, That's that's the story. It's the ambient. Although given the guys alleged past, with all the accusations that forced him out of the governor's race, forced him to quit his job in Congress, and now he's under investigation, maybe he had a lot of ambient on hand, right, I mean, what were the reports from the other women that he's alleged to have accosted, assaulted, raped, right that they don't remember a lot of that, They don't remember what happened. They claim to have gotten too drunk and all. Well, is it possible that maybe the ambient found its way into somebody else's glass. I don't know. I'm just asking questions. I don't know. And I know that the ladies loved the true crime podcasts and all, so we should start our own investigation. And by investigation I mean complete speculation. Will just make up stuff like Candace Owens, who I think is now she's all over the I think she's shifting gears now after just utter humiliation on the Tyler Robinson stuff. I think now she's turning her psychotic gaze over to the woman that murdered her three children. She's going to get to the bottom of that one too, folks. Don't you worry about it. She's going to get to the bottom of it, just like she got to the bottom of the Charlie Kirk assassination. It's not all of the evidence that points to Tyler Robinson. It was the Jews according to Candace. Maybe she's and Erica Kirk and the French with some Egyptian airplanes as I understand it. So Swallowell, the now forty five year old, claimed to the FBI that both of his encounters with Fang Fang took place at his apartment. Quote probably before he was first elected to Congress in twenty twelve end quote. So he doesn't really remember that either. He was taking a lot of ambient apparently like all the time, so he just didn't remember stuff. According to the document, quote, one night, Fang Fang came over late in the evening and started banging, oh hang on on the door, sorry, started banging on Swalwell's door. Swalwell let her in, and she and Swalwell hooked up, and Fang left after a couple hours, probably because he fell asleep with all the ambient. Swalwell barely remembers the event because he had taken an ambient prior to Fang Fang arriving. Very convenient. I don't remember getting compromised by the Jai Chicom because I was on drugs. Swalwell's links to Fang Feng were first reported by Axios back in December of twenty twenty and led to the then Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy, kicking him off of the House Intelligence Committee in January of twenty twenty three. Three years three years this ambient adduled compromised Fangfanger was on House Intel what like, I hope they pull everything from his computer, like I if he was sending anything over to the chi cooms, Like, I hope they get this guy. It's funny, you know, It's always the ones you most suspect. So Fang, believed to be an operative for the chi COOM, Ministry of State Security or the MSS, helped organize fundraisers for Swalwell in Las Vegas and in California. She also reportedly cultivated relate relationships with a network of rising politicians. Like to know who those are and other influencers across the US, like to know who they are? Also, Fang Fang repeatedly encouraged Swalwell to visit China, even extending an invitation to Swalwell's dad. What how does she know your dad? What's the deal with that? She extended an invitation to Swalell's father and his family following the congressman's twenty fourteen reelection. According to the newly declassified documents quote, when Swalwell's father later mentioned this to him to Eric, Eric thought it was odd. Neither Swalwell's father nor his family traveled to China. Well, at least they didn't do that. Although portions of the document are redacted. They describe Fangfang as having been deeply involved in Swalwell's political operation. They showed that she helped place an intern in Swalwell's congressional office in DC, probably also a spy. The FBI memo says she also asked Swalwell to help the INTERN secure another internship, this time with a different member of Congress, maybe somebody with more access to top secret information. Swalwell told agents that he declined, but he said he did not remember having advised or complained about the INTERN and did not want to provide a recommendation for this intern. Again, there's the ambient talking, or I guess in this case not talking. He just doesn't remember. The FBI records don't say whether the INTERN was a Chinese intelligence operative or whether they obtained or passed on classified information. Fangfang is believed to have returned to China in mid twenty fifteen as an FBI investigation into allegations she listited illegal campaign donations for Swalwell and acted as an unregistered foreign agent reached when that investigation reached an advanced stage, so she fled back to China. But we don't know. It's we just don't know if she's a spy. I think she was a spy. Guys, Yeah, I think she's a spy. I mean she was like she was hooking up with Swalwell, there's no other reason for that. From the text line, John from Indian Land asks why are the tri coms focused on Democrats? Democrats are doing what they want anyway. I mean, well, I mean, you know, you can never be too sure. I thought I heard a click. Did you hear the click? No? Though I thought we were getting interrupted by the eas emergency alert system. We got some thunderstorms that are approaching the area, so be ready for that. I mean I won't be because it just comes out of nowhere, but just a heads up. So yeah, well, I mean, look, that's a fair question. Why would they focus on Democrats. Look, I think they want to focus on everybody. They don't care about our domestic politics. Remember the chi cooms all they care about, same thing with the Russians, all communists. They don't care about what the issue is. They don't care about the internal division. Your position versus your political opponent's position is irrelevant. The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution. They are attempting to take down the West America specifically, so every division that people in America have with their own fellow countrymen, the Kamis will exploit, They will amplify both of the sides. We saw this in the summer of fiery but mostly peaceful riots right when here in Charlotte, as a matter of fact, there was what was it, Black Matters Live. That was the name of the group. I'm not kidding, that was the name of the group. And they got a bunch of funding to hold some rallies as the Black Lives Matter efforts were kicking up. And I remember that some local news I think it was. It may have been I think it was a TV station. They talked to the organizer. After the indictments came down, remember the Robert Mueller the investigation. The indicted some people. They were all Russians. This was the first, you know, Russian interference investigation. And we're finally going to prove that putin, you know, voted for Trump a billion times so he could win in all of this. And we find the tracing of the money and it comes right here into Charlotte with some Facebook group that organized a rally of like there was like twelve people. There was not a lot of people that shut up. But the organizer said that he met the woman who was funding it and or helping him organize it, and she was Russian and she was like being escorted around by some you know, no neck, you know, mountain of a man who never said anything, probably named Sergei or Igor or something like that. So they don't care what the issue is. They will just use any issue that we are already fighting over, and then they will just amplify it to get us to tear each other apart. But I have no doubt they make these overtures and these attempts with Republicans as well. Well. I mean, look, I can play you the clip of Tucker Carlson from his show the other day where he was extolling the virtues of literally Russia and China, like in case you like, I'm not sure you need him to say anything more than he's I have the audio clip someplace here, it's in the it's in my Twitter bookmarks. But he literally says that Putin and Jijinping, who looks like Winnie the Pooh, that these are these are models to emulate. I'm not sure what else you need to hear to understand what Tucker Carlson's project is all about. Scott says, if Fang Fang found Swallowell attractive, there definitely were some heavy drugs involved. That's yeah, ambient. Let me see here. David says, the worst president in my lifetime was Jimmy Carter. Okay, well that's fair until Yeah, he was clearly beaten by Joe Biden as the worst. Yeah, but I mean Woodrow Wilson awful, absolutely awful. How bad could Woodrow Wilson have been? Income tax, popularly elected, League of Nations, had a stroke? I mean, he was the original Biden. He was the og Joe, you know, like the guy had multiple strokes and was incapacitated and his wife was signing all of the stuff right to to Oh another David ambient can make you essentially sleep walk from personal experience as a teenager. Okay, David, sleep walking versus sleep relations like, that's I feel like that's different. I feel like one requires a little bit more commitment, you know, a little bit more exertion. That's now that he says, Now that you continue, though it does seem like an excuse for not rem but for real, sleepwalking is a known side effect? Okay? Is sleep sexing? Is that a side effect? Or are you including the sex in the walking because I have found those to be different things unless you're doing like the speed walking thing. You know, do you ever see the speed walkers? Did you know that people they used to hold like walking races in America, like one hundred, one hundred fifty years ago, and they would last for days. You had to keep walking at a certain pace for days, and people would do this and people came out in massive crowds to watch for days. People walk around a track for like five six days straight. People are crazy. Speaking of Eric Swalwell, did you know that there was a Jack Smith connection to the Swalwell case? There was, yeah, Jack Smith. That Jack Smith exactly the guy that brought the charges against Donald Trump, and right that guy. He was the point of contact as the head of the Justice Department Public Integrity Unit from twenty ten through twenty fifteen. Smith would later be elevated to special counsel in the Trump probes. WO no charges against Eric Swalwell. His lawyer called the declassification of decade old records nothing new, characterized it as a vehicle for political retaliation. Records show. Records were released via the House Transparency Task Force. Jeff Clark, vice president of Litigation at the Oversight Project. He is the former He former White House official, He worked for the in the DOJ and omb and any. He's an administrative law expert, Jeff Clark, and he points out here that this shocking development that Jack Smith was at the DOJ's Public Integrity Section. So it was Jack Smith who was not interested in prosecuting Eric Swalwell in regards to the Fang Fang affairs. I mean, well, Swawell wasn't married at the time. I mean he may have been, you know, sexually assaulting a bunch of other women while he was married, but not Fangfang. That was when he was just like a city councilman in Dublin, California. Clark says, Yes, mainstream media, by all means, continue to propagate the myth that Jack Smith was not partisan against Donald Trump. Yeah, why would you ignore this kind of a thing for Swallwell and then go as Smith did so hard against Donald Trump. Meanwhile, newly declassified documents from the White House Transparency Task Force also revealed several top Republican and conservative figures were labeled as conduits for Russian disinformation for their part in pushing for further investigations into allegations against the Bidens and the Bidens ties to Ukraine. Okay, so I'm sure the left will hear this and think aha, See, top Republicans, they were conduits for Russian disinformation. See that, because they were labeled as conduits for Russian disinformation. See we were right. They were conduits. No, they were labeled as such, and they were only labeled as such by the intel community because they were like, Hey, what's the deal with the Bidens and Ukraine? How did Hunter Biden get a fifty thousand dollars a month gig on Bearisma's board. Guy's got no experience in energy, Like, what is he doing on this energy provider's board in Ukraine? Right after his daddy told the Ukrainian government to fire the special prosecutor that was looking into Barisma. Weird huh? And just for raising that question, you got labeled as a Russian conduit. The code name Round River, which was an FBI counterintelligence operation as part of the bureau's Foreign Influence Task Force leading up to the twenty twenty elections was described by a White House official as a counterintelligence operation to neutralize certain narratives, including the investigation into Hunter Biden's laptop and the Bidens the Biden families ties to Ukraine's Barisma holdings. The recently declassified documents identified several Republicans, including former Attorney General Bill Barr, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, the late Senator Lindsay Graham, also Congressman Jim Jordan. In contrast, the operation warned that figures like George Soros, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Hunter Biden, former Secretary of State John Kerry that they were targets for Russian disinformation. It's funny how all of these errors always go the same direction, you know. Another document released from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence under former d and I Tulci Gabbard in twenty twenty five revealed that a team from Round River was tasked with identifying confidential human source files within the Bureau and other in telagencies that had derogatory information on the Bidens and would then deem the information to be Russian disinformation. See, so you had a team in the intelligence community that would go through files. They would find anything that was disparaging against the Bidens with regard to Ukraine and bribery and corruption, and any kind of intel that was being generated from their confidential human sources they would label as Russian disinformation. See so if you label all of this stuff as Russian disinfo, then anybody can say, oh, it's Russian disinfo. Don't use my name, just call me a source familiar with the matter. The od and I concluded that the Foreign Intelligence Task Force did not go in and try to determine the merit of the allegations or to examine if they were factually true, nor did it consult with the agents working those informants. They simply designated them as foreign intelligence threats and designated their files as such. This is a report from the Center Square by Sarah Roderick Fitch. And they inquired about the status and identities of those who were working within the FBI on the Round River operation, and the White House official responded that the FBI is quote in the process of producing the documents to answer those questions, including who was involved and how high did it go. Okay, I'm just going to go out on a limb, and I'm going to guess that it probably went all the way to the top, probably to the White House. I don't know if Joe Biden was aware of it, not sure. He wasn't aware of a lot of things, including his presence on a stage or who was living or dead in the audience, so he may not have been aware of this, but I'm sure the people around him sure were.
