Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) has been caught red-handed taking massive cash payments from Pacific Gas & Electric while simultaneously promising California voters he'll cut their energy rates if elected governor. According to a bombshell new report, the scandal-plagued congressman has raked in a whopping $113,000 from PG&E – the same utility company that has been price-gouging Golden State families for years.
This is the same Eric Swalwell who was compromised by Chinese spy Fang Fang, and now we find out he's been bought and paid for by PG&E executives while lying straight to voters' faces about fighting for lower energy costs. Talk about a pattern of betrayal!
While hardworking Californians struggle to pay their skyrocketing electricity bills – some of the highest in the nation – Swalwell has been living high on the hog thanks to PG&E's generous contributions. The utility giant has a long history of rate hikes, safety violations, and causing devastating wildfires that killed dozens of innocent people.
This corrupt arrangement perfectly exemplifies everything wrong with California's Democrat machine. Politicians like Swalwell take money from the very corporations they're supposed to regulate, then have the audacity to campaign on fighting those same companies. It's a sick joke played on everyday Americans.
The hypocrisy is staggering. Swalwell wants to be California's next governor while already proving he'll sell out working families to his corporate masters. Is this really the leadership Californians deserve after years of Democrat failures?
This revelation comes as President Trump's administration is working to unleash American energy dominance and bring down costs for families nationwide. Meanwhile, Democrats like Swalwell are getting rich off the very system that's crushing middle-class Americans.
California voters deserve to know: How many other Democrat politicians are secretly taking money from PG&E while pretending to fight for lower rates? And will Swalwell finally come clean about his cozy relationship with this corrupt utility company?
