Allies yank support for Swalwell’s California governor run after sexual assault allegationshttps://apnews.com/article/california-governor-eric-swalwell-assault-allegations-aa1d13afe441be38d1d16f648e06d503Another Democrat hero bites the dust.SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell has so far denied calls for him to exit the California governor’s race following allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman twice, including when she worked for him. After prominent supporters withdrew their backing, Swalwell said in a video on social media that he would spend the weekend with family and friends and share an update “very soon.”“These allegations of sexual assault are flat false. They’re absolutely false. They did not happen, they have never happened, and I will fight them with everything that I have,” the congressman said Friday.Swalwell was among the leading Democrats in the race to replace outgoing Gov. Gavin Newsom. But in just hours, he saw his most prominent supporters — including U.S. Sen. Adam Schiff and powerful labor unions — drop their endorsements and call for his exit from the race.Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who hasn’t endorsed in the race, said the “serious allegations” must be investigated and that she spoke to Swalwell and suggested that be done “outside of a gubernatorial campaign.”The allegations surfaced at a critical stage of the wide-open campaign to lead the nation’s most populous state. Voters will receive mail ballots next month in advance of the June 2 election.The San Francisco Chronicle reported Friday that a woman said Swalwell sexually assaulted her in 2019 and 2024. The newspaper reviewed text messages about the alleged 2024 assault and spoke to people whom she had told about it. She told the newspaper she did not go to police because she was afraid she would not be believed.
Get rapists out of politics!
>>1505401lol the comments on AP are copathetic.
>>1505401Too bad Eric isn't a republican, he'd be applauded for this and the conservatively biased media would be burying the women.
>>1505454Democrats are such wimps, they make me almost want to be a Republican..almost, but even I ain't that slimy
>>1505454inb4 his "why I left the left" arc
>>1505463All I did was get a snapshot of me pretending to squeeze the bitch boobs while she was wearing body armor
>>1505463Its just unfair that only Republicans support rapists. Its why Trump had to change his registration and run as a Republican, all the raping made him unpopular with Democrats
>>1505454He's not Hunter Biden.
>>1505481At least hunter isn't a coke head like Don Jr.Also not a pussy either since both don jr and eric are too scared to face him in a cage match.
>>1505486>Also not a pussy eitherYes coke does that
>>1505486We have video of hunter Biden smoking crack cocaine Can you provide footage of don jr using cocaine?
>>1505497>Can you provide footage of don jr using cocaine?Given his behavior, him being a coke addict would be the less embarrassing explanation. Not sure why you're fighting this.
>>1505497Proof it's not AI like everything else republicans do to smear their everyone who's not part of their cult?
>>1505497>WeWho?
>>1505504you do realize hunter biden publically owns his addiction? there's full interviews with independent journalists of him openly discussing his struggle with cocaine addiction. i'm not about to spoonfeed you though, because you talk like retarded liberal faggot. less discussing more studying.
>>1505958>after being busted
People acting like coke is a big deal haven't done coke. It's fucking everywhere, it's usage is more widespread than the uninitiated realize, and lots of people do it without it even interfering with their day to day lives.The world would probably be better off if baron died in a car accident or something, we don't need another corrupt narcissistic little shit growing up without ever being challenged on anything to inherit a fortune he couldn't have made in a hundred lifetimes if he had to play on a level field in the free market.Arguing over which politician's loser kid is worse is sad and pathetic. This is a bizarre dick measuring competition.Fuck your pearl clutching and your whataboutism, you're both giant pussies, I bet neither of you can handle your shit.
>>1505481>>1505497Hunter isn't involved in politics. With his rap sheet of drug use, tax evasion (paid back with interest) and owning a gun while a felon (because of the drug charges), he wouldn't even rate a fucking page 10 article if he didn't happen to represent an easy target for the conservative media's campaign against all things Democrat.
>>1505401#believe all womenUnless the accused a dem, then they are just lying whores. Innocent until proven guilty.
>>1506050That's a feminist position, not a democratic one. That's a venn diagram. Conservatives want you to think it's a circle because being manipulative is the only way to get people to accept conservatism. It is possible to believe in due process for sexual offenses and not be a dipshit psychopathic pedophile enabler. You're a piece of shit for trying to imply there isn't.
>>1506050Swalwell is resigning though. Tony Gonzales (R) too
