Schiff Refuses To Disclose Why He Withheld Details Of Swalwell's Relationship With A Chinese Spy From Intel Committee

[Federalist] House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff did not respond to The Federalist's questions about Intelligence Committee member and California Rep. Eric Swalwell's position on the committee in light of recent news revealing Swalwell's connections with a suspected Chinese spy.

When asked whether Swalwell's position on the House Intelligence Committee would be tainted or compromised by his relationship with Christine Fang, a suspected spy for communist China, Swalwell's office did not reply as of press time. According to a new report by Axios, Fang leveraged her position and connections in California's Bay Area for years to gather intelligence on Democrat politicians and government officials.

Schiff's office also did not respond when asked if he previously knew about Swalwell's involvement with Fang or if he was briefed about Swalwell's relationship with Fang.

Swalwell also refused to answer The Federalist's questions about the extent of his relationship with Fang, ignoring allegations from sources directly familiar with the counterintelligence investigation of Fang who told The Federalist that she and Swalwell may have had a sexual relationship.

According to the two sources, federal officials were so concerned about the romantic relationship between a U.S. congressman and a suspected Chinese spy that they even investigated whether Swalwell may have tipped Fang off about the counterintelligence investigation after he was given a defensive briefing on the matter shortly before Fang disappeared from the U.S. in 2015. A senior U.S. intelligence official told The Federalist that investigators only uncovered limited circumstantial evidence that Swalwell may have tipped Fang off after he was warned of her connections to Chinese intelligence.

According to Axios, Fang raised money and bundled donors for Swalwell, and even placed an intern in the congressman's Washington's D.C. office.

When contacted by The Federalist, Swalwell's office pointed to the generalized statement they gave Axios.

"Rep. Swalwell, long ago, provided information about this person ‐ whom he met more than eight years ago, and whom he hasn't seen in nearly six years ‐ to the FBI. To protect information that might be classified, he will not participate in your story," Swalwell's office said.
[Sure, sure, reporting foreign contacts "might be classified". Uh-huh.]

#9 Why did it take this long, and a leak from somewhere, for us to learn that the FBI had fingered the miserable Swalwell years ago? I suppose the answer to that is the FBI has and will cover for all Democrat miscreants. Second, Pelosi must have known about it; after all Swalwell represents the East Bay of California, just across the bridge from San Francisco.

#15 Is it really this bad in Canada? BritIn, Australia, France?

Worse, as far as I can tell. Canada has Justin Trudeau, who is like a stupid Barack Obama without the exotic life story, though he does like to dress up in the clothes of the interesting backgrounds he was not born into. Britain has the acknowledged ass Boris Johnson; his great-grandfather was Ali Kemal Bey, whose own mother was a Circassian slave, which explains the unruly blond hair of the prime minister— and he is perhaps the best of the lot over there. The best France can do is Emmanuel Macron, who married his teacher and gets a gold star for effort every morning with breakfast.

#16 Democrats have sold themselves to the Chinese Communist Party. For a long time after they all decided during the primaries to let Joe have it, I wondered who was on the committee that made that decision and who would have the power to enforce it, who could make all of those other candidates get behind a senile old creep who is so frail that he breaks his leg playing with his dog. At first I thought it was just a deal they made with Bernie Sanders. But Bernie doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would just step aside when he knew he could beat Joe in the primaries, especially after he knuckled under to Hillary's cheating in 2016. Who else would have that kind of clout? Clinton? Obama? Would Bernie listen to them? I don't think so. I now believe that committee is really the CCP Politburo in Beijing.

I think it's safe to assume that it's worse than you can possibly imagine. Could be we are not worthy of our ancestors' legacy.
