EXCERPT:
HAWLEY: "Absolutely, I don't have any doubt about it, because he had become a liability. You pointed out, she knew all about this. She was briefed by the FBI back in 2020 that the guy was a target of a Chinese spy Fang Fang. By the way, Fang Fang probably got a medal of commendation. That was like the worst espionage assignment in the history of the world. But Swalwell fell for it. She knew that he was a liability, she knew he was a problem. She could use it as leverage until it blew up in her face, and now he’s gone. Jesse, this is why Congress needs to pass legislation, I’m introducing it today, that would deny pensions to every member of Congress who is convicted of a sex offense. Right now, you could be convicted and still get your pension. The only thing the government ought to be paying for for people like Eric Swalwell is a jail cell."
