There ought to be a law that states when a member of Congress is busted for having fallen prey to a Chinese honeypot, engaging in a sexual relationship with a suspected spy, this person crawls into a hole somewhere and is not heard from again.
Such a law would save U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., a lot of misery, assuming the attention-whore is not a glutton for punishment — then again, accused ChiCom spy Fang Fang may have a doozy of a tale to tell when it comes to the Democrat’s preferences behind closed doors.
Nonetheless, Swalwell used his 4-year-old child to seize the moral high ground following the massacre in Buffalo, N.Y., where 10 people were killed in what looks to be a racially motivated attack by a gunman, to offer a sanctimonious lecture about banning “assault weapons” — never mind that such weapons are already banned in New York.
“My 4-year-old just FaceTimed to ask what I’m doing to “help the people in Buffalo” and “why did the bad man do this?” Absolutely gutting. This cannot be his normal. It’s time to BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS,” Swalwell tweeted, adding the hashtag: #EndGunViolence.

The politicization of shootings of this nature is par for the course these days, but such an argument has little change coming from someone with little credibility in the eyes of so many.
Suffice it to say that few believed the congressman’s son actually said what he claimed the child said, filing the story alongside President Biden’s tale of “Corn Pop.”
As for being a glutton for punishment, if true, Swalwell had an exceptional day on Monday… here’s a quick sampling of the beatdown he received from Twitter:
Your 4-year-old also emailed me
He wants to know what I’m doing to prevent his father from sleeping with Chinese spies

My three-year-old just emailed me and asked why I bought him “a toy gun that mimics its deadly counterpart.” He told me our family was “normalizing violence.” He attached a video of himself tossing it in the trash. Heart-wrenching. It’s time to ban toy guns, too.

My 4-year-old just asked me why a flatulent congressman that peddled a fake repeatedly debunked Russia collusion hoax still sits on the house intelligence committee after a Chinese spy allowed him to pity bang her for years in exchange for state secrets.
I’m literally shaking. https://t.co/aFDPVDfpcL— Rising serpent 🇺🇸 (@rising_serpent) May 17, 2022

Liberals exploit their children in really gross ways. If your 4-year-old is watching the news, what does he think about you banging a Chinese spy? https://t.co/NsfnG0LfU0

My 3-year-old’s guinea pig just squeaked at me and said, “Why do clowns continue to use their kids as pawns and make up obviously fake stories about them to try to manipulate people’s emotions?” Absolutely gutting.
