Despite being allegedly compromised by a spy from China, Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is still serving on the House Intelligence Committee for some reason. Do you think Russia-crazed Congress members like Adam Schiff or even Nancy Pelosi would allow this to go on if Swalwell was a Republican?

Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has long been a gadfly in the Democratic party, ruffling the feathers of party leaders by at times taking positions at odds with party leaders and the far-left base.

Such was the case earlier this week when, on Wednesday evening, the freshman Congresswoman tweeted out support for a newly-formed bipartisan caucus for black and Jewish House members . . . and then sided with anti-Semitic activist Linda Sarsour in a Twitter war over one of the caucus's Jewish founders just hours later.
