“There is like this whole conspiracy that apparently nobody knew about [Eric Swalwell’s alleged sexual misconduct]. This has been like the biggest open secret. Just for some evidence, East Bay political journalist Steve Tavares … said Democrats in local California leadership knew about this for years. You had another reporter who got into a Twitter fight, and she said ‘Oh yeah, I knew about this in 2020, but it wasn’t my beat.’ Your beat wasn’t breaking what would have been a massive career story for you? Then she said she passed on the notes to her colleagues, and they did nothing about it!” The Federalist’s Brianna Lyman said on Gutfeld! “So not only is Eric Swalwell a potential villain in the story if these allegations are true, so is the media because they were complicit in this cover-up. They would have given him the Brett Kavanaugh treatment, the Donald Trump treatment if he had an ‘R’ in front of his name. But, they gave him the Democrat treatment which is ‘Oh, can’t see anything, until it’s politically inconvenient.'”
