Brett Cooper — Fang Fang’s Farting Boyfriend Is OUT

All right, guys. So, as of Sunday night, 48 hours ago, Fang Fang's farty boyfriend, Eric Swalwell, is officially out of California's gubernatorial race, thanks to an onslaught of harassment and sexual misconduct allegations. My god. But, this story really isn't about that misconduct and those allegations. It is about a very targeted, coordinated takedown done by his own party because they see Mr. Fang Fang as a risk.

And while they try to feign all of this moral superiority and outrage and say that he's going to be investigated, they're going to look very seriously into all of these allegations, it would be wise to remember that his own party, his peers, people who have defended him, have allegedly been sitting on all of this information for years, just waiting to use it. And so, obviously, that begs the question in my mind, does anyone in government actually work for us?

Does anyone work on behalf of the American people? Or are they just working for the people who actually sign their checks, the lobbyists? Or are they working for who knows about the skeletons in their closet? >> Well, I don't have any concern about Mr. Swalwell. Anyway, we will get to that. Let's jump into this story because here is what Swalwell posted on Sunday night. He said, "I am suspending my campaign for governor.

To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment that I have made in my past. I will fight the serious false allegations that have been made, but that's my fight, not a campaign." Oh, yes, he's he's very deeply sorry for his lapses in judgment, the mistakes, BUT ALSO IT'S FALSE THAT HE WILL FIGHT IT. OKAY, ERIC, got it. Got it. Like, it's false like you never farted on live TV in front of everyone.

>> Ukrainians to help him cheat in election. >> It's false like you never slept with a Chinese spy, Fang Fang, got it. Speaking of Fang Fang, the Chinese operative, I don't know why anyone is shocked about the Swalwell story, thanks to that story. Again, just a few years ago, Swalwell allegedly had a little tit-for-tat, was canoodling with a Chinese operative, and the reality is he should have been expelled from Congress then.

But no, the Democrats stood behind him. They didn't have a problem with that because they still needed him. He was still a useful mouthpiece. Because the truth about politics that we are all unfortunately having to learn right now is that your party will protect you until it is not convenient anymore. I mean, just look at this meme. This was so perfect. This person posted, "Number one, a man too perverted to be governor.

Number two, a man not too perverted to be a congressman." Yeah, now I just want to say, "Sorry, Paula White, you have been knocked out of the running." That face right there is my new sleep paralysis demon. Like, imagine that thing coming on to you. Now, unfortunately, it seems like for many of his ex-staffers, that is something that they do not have to imagine. That is something that actually is going to haunt their dreams for years and years to come.

Now, before we dive into the rest of the story, I want to thank you all so much for being here. Thank you for liking and commenting and sharing the episodes and being subscribers.

That is the subscriber platform that we have built for you guys, and I've loved to see how much you guys are enjoying it, and I love creating that content for you. So, yeah, go enjoy. All right, so let's dive into these horrors, the horrors of the story. So, like I said in last week's episode on Tony Gonzales, because unfortunately, now it feels like every couple of days we're having to talk about one of these freaks, whether it's Tony Gonzales or big booby Brian Noem and Kristi Noem and Tory Lewandowski, whatever it is.

Anyway, as I spoke about last week in regards to Tony Gonzales, I briefly mentioned at the end of that episode that there were sexual assault allegations allegedly coming out about Eric Swalwell. But at the time, all we had was one person on on Instagram making reels saying that she had talked to people, she knew that it was coming. So, I wanted to wait and see what would happen before I really leaned in and started ripping into this grape.

But oh boy, since then, in like the last 6 days, has it come crashing down. Now, before we get into it, just to really jog our memories about who this man is who we're dealing with, I want to show you guys the Swalwell video from back in September. Just watch. I was the 216th person to sign the Epstein petition to release all of the files and finally bring justice for these victims. So, we're just two away. Two more members sign it and we are on our road to justice.

I was proud to do it as a former prosecutor, as somebody who has spent my time in Congress working to stand up for the rights of victims. And now I'm calling on my Republican colleagues. This is not about red team versus blue team. This is about sexual assault victims deserve justice. Oh. Oh, is it, Eric? Sorry, Mr. Fang Fang. Mr. Farty Fang Fang. Yeah, oh yeah, you you've been fighting for the rights of these victims.

Oh yeah, Eric cares big time about the victims. He loves the victims, probably because allegedly, he has some of his own. Real men don't terrorize women. Also, I I feel like nothing represents our elected officials better than this meme. It's all like, "You did it. You did it. Oh, you have misconduct? I have misconduct." I mean, you all are freaks. You all are perverts and freaks. Let's burn it all down and start over.

Let's stop shifting the blame. You all guilty. Everybody guilty. Anyway, sorry, moving on. Again, like I said, the information was teased in last week's episode, but now we have it because 3 days ago, on April 10th, the first shoe dropped. Now, this headline read, "Ex-staffer says that Eric Swalwell, candidate for governor of California, sexually assaulted her." And then, just a couple of hours later, CNN had talked to three more alleged victims.

Exclusive, "Four women describe sexual misconduct by Representative Eric Swalwell, including a former staffer who says he raped her." Now, almost immediately, I think this article came out at like 7:00 p.m. By 10:00 p.m., Eric Swalwell had a statement ready to go. Let's just watch. A lot of things were said about me today through anonymous allegations. And I thought it was important that you see and hear from me directly.

These allegations of sexual assault are flat false. They are absolutely false. They did not happen. They have never happened. And I will fight them with everything that I have. They also come on the eve of an election where I have been the frontrunner candidate for governor in California. I do not suggest to you in any way that I'm perfect or that I'm a saint. I have certainly made mistakes in judgment in my past. But those mistakes are between me and my wife.

And to her, I apologize deeply for putting her in this position. I just to say, like, this whole thing is just so weird. Like, he's sitting in some weird hotel room. He's being casual. His shirt is unbuttoned. Nobody wants to see that. Button it up. This is part of the whole problem. You need to re-clothe yourself. He's taken off the glasses so he can really connect with us. He's doing all this stuff with his face. Like, I don't It's weird.

I feel invaded. And I do not want to feel like I don't know who advised him to do that because that video convinced no one. The internet just then spent hours making fun of him. And honestly, personally, it just gave me the heebie-jeebies. But unfortunately, for Eric, again, that video did not really work because then, 24 hours later, on Saturday, this then came out. "Eric Swalwell paid a legal Brazilian live-in nanny under the table with campaign funds, complaint alleges."

Just listen to this. "When the South American babysitter's temporary work authorization was about to expire in 2022, he and his wife, Brittany, lied to the feds to keep Amanda Barbosa working for them." A new complaint filed with the Department of Labor claims. Another complaint filed with the Department of Homeland Security in February, and previously unreported, unreported, accuses Swalwell of paying the nanny under the table with campaign funds for a period of 2 years when she didn't hold a valid work authorization.

Again, note the language, previously unreported. We we just didn't really think to cover it. Wasn't really relevant. We don't know where these complaints came from, just out of thin air. But yeah, we just didn't cover it, of course, because clearly, none of this was organic, unlike Good Ranchers better than organic steak.

In addition to all of that, videos have now also come out of him in bed with a woman who people have now allegedly determined, based on her online presence, to be a sex worker.

So, that's Swalwell. He's pulling the girl back. There's somebody behind him. There also was somebody else in the bed. Somebody is recording him. Some people are saying this is in a hotel. Other people are saying, "No, actually that is his home." I HAVE NO IDEA. I HAVE NO INFORMATION. I am just showing you all of that. >> Real men don't terrorize women. >> So now that you have all the information, let's just break all of this down because all of this has grown to an absolutely insane level.

Like this was the most well-executed takedown campaign I have ever seen. He is now being accused of harboring an illegal immigrant, you know, misusing campaign funds, like $200,000 worth of campaign funds, harassing employees, but most significantly, rape. And per usual, we should be careful with throwing that accusation and that word around. So, with all of these women that are accusing Swalwell, according to CNN, there is a similar pattern.

And CNN, in their article that I showed you, broke all of this down. just want to read this to you. They write, "The women described a similar pattern of events. Swalwell, who is married and has three children, showed close interest in their lives when they were in their 20s and finding their footing professionally, making them feel special and even starstruck. Then, they said, he would send them increasingly sexual messages.

Many said that they reciprocated and engaged with him in part because of his position of power. In some cases, those inappropriate exchanges escalated to unwanted physical touch or sexual assault, often tied to episodes of heavy drinking." Now, unfortunately, and I say unfortunately because this is just utterly gross and embarrassing, a lot of this took place on Snapchat. Like that was already a red flag that Representative Eric Swalwell was on Snapchat.

But in addition to the women that have been written about in these articles and on CNN, another person on X said for Eric Swalwell, "He's legit a loser that's actually harassed me as a college student on Snapchat." And then included screenshots of them texting him, texting her and saying, "Check your Snapchat. I Snapchatted you." And then she has evidence there from 2019 of them calling and communicating. Now, I don't know what was said on Snapchat.

I think in a few minutes you'll see you can start speculating, but I just wanted to put it out there that it's not just these women that CNN has interviewed. Anyway, moving on from that, going back to CNN, one of these victims actually spoke in a video and honestly to CNN. And the stories that she recounted are truly disgusting. Like they are awful. Just take a listen to this. It was in 2019. I was again driving him to an event.

This was my job. And you were 21 years old. And I was 21 years old. We see some sort of parking lot and he says to pull over. He pulls out his penis and instructs me to give him oral sex. And I started to, again, I felt incredibly uncomfortable. And I stopped and I said to him, "I This feels really uncomfortable and anyone could see us right now." And he said to me, "You're right. It's probably not good for a congressman to be caught with his pants down."

He would send, um, short Snapchat videos of him rubbing his penis through his pants while on the airplane. >> I mean, just objectively, this is disgusting. The man is a freaking perv. This is completely inappropriate. It is absolutely the textbook definition of sexual harassment and misconduct where a boss is obviously abusing his position of power. This is a, you know, at the time, 21-year-old employee and she is his staffer.

You're terrorizing women. Real men don't terrorize women. >> That being said, even though objectively that is gross, just weird pervy behavior, I do want to be careful here with what we are accusing him of because some of these women have admitted to reciprocating his advances. And a few of them even had contact after these incidents, asking him for job references and that sort of thing. And CNN actually wrote that many of them were flattered by his attention.

They wrote that they Snapchatted him back. They communicated. They even sent nude images back to him. They also knew that he was married. They knew he was a married father of three. And yet, they still advanced this relationship. They went out with him. They partied with him. They got drunk and hooked up with him, which is now being labeled as rape by at least one of the women. Now, interestingly, in regards to that woman, and this is where I'm treading lightly and trying to thread a needle, so just stick with me here.

There's a lot of nuance. But in regards to this woman, years later after that first incident that she called rape, because there were multiple, after that first incident, she and Swalwell reconnected again years later at a political event. She invited him to get drinks. And she said it was totally professional. It was fine. And then, after that, after they saw each other in a professional capacity, again, years after a rape took place, she then got on her phone and Snapchatted him after their totally professional drink, whatever it was, inviting him out for even more drinks with all of her friends.

And then, for the rest of the night, they went from bar to bar and she woke up in bed with him in his hotel. And once again, she's calling it rape. Just listen to this. This is what CNN published. "When Swalwell came into a car to pick her up, he put his hand on her leg. I said, 'No funny business. Like that is not what this is.' She remembered. And he was like, 'Okay, okay.'" Which I do just have to say, if you were previously sending nude photos to a man, giving him oral sex in a car, having relations with him, even if you were calling it rape, I think if you're inviting him out for a drink, he might be under the impression that that's why.

Okay. This is like I'm treading in, you know, treacherous territory, but here we go. "But then, over drinks, Swalwell told the former staffer that he had been obsessed with her and never cheated on his wife except with her." All right. "But then, she said, 'I guess I liked the attention, but I never wanted to sleep with him.'" "As the night progressed," she said, "the two went on to another bar and continued drinking.

She said that she was heavily intoxicated and does not remember leaving the bar. The next thing the former staffer remembered was that she was in bed with Swalwell in his hotel room and that he was having sex with her," she said. She said she remembers flashes of that evening, him on top of me, me pushing him off, him grabbing me. Now, obviously, and like I said, this is treacherous territory. I'm not trying to discount about Mr.

Swalwell. And so, on that note, thinking about what's going on in the world right now, like what changed? I want you to think back to this fall. We did an episode about it, but Swalwell is or was running for California governor. And there was no doubt in anyone's minds that he was going to be the Democrat frontrunner. But Democrats don't really have California in the bag the way that they used to. And I think that that made them nervous, especially because of this open secret, the skeletons in the closet that were following Eric Swalwell.

And I think they realized that as they inched closer to this election, those secrets could destroy him, just handing the election to the Republicans. And so, the Democrats, Nancy Pelosi, they decided to take him out themselves. I mean, for example, reporter Nick Somner, he openly said that he had and was sitting on a bunch of information about Eric Swalwell, but he was waiting to use it, to deploy it until in the election.

I think the Democrats knew that and they were scared. I mean, this is what Nick tweeted. He said, "We were going to wait until just before the California primary to nuke Eric Swalwell out of the race with my recordings of him inebriated with lobbyists at dinner. But now that his Democrat friends are calling him to drop out, I guess I don't have to wait. Stay tuned for a drop in the coming days. Swalwell spent his dinner bragging about orgies on Capitol Hill."

Okay, well, apparently we all owe Madison Cawthorn an apology. I guess he was right about that. Anyway, "Telling the lobbyists that he's bored of his wife and only wants to F 10s. Worse, and actually, Nick, I don't think this is worse, but he spoke about abusing his power on the House Intel Committee, which he's since been booted off of, saying he pushed to subpoena Ivanka Trump because she's hot as F." Now, in the last few days, Nick has released bits and pieces of this recording and his night with him, but he is still teasing the full thing.

You get the gist of it. Democrats probably knew that these stories, that content like that, was out there. All you wanted was him out of the race. You don't care about victims. You don't care about justice. You just want to win. >> Well, I don't have any concern about Mr. Swalwell. With all of the deviant behavior up in Washington, they probably have this on a lot of people on both the left and the right and they just wait for the right time to deploy it.

And so that mixed with the amount of lobbying and money in Congress, the insider trading and now insider gambling on apps like Polymarket, it's probably my know in Congress really seems like they act in the interest of their voters or their alleged values. I It's just so awesome. It like it's so peachy. I'm so excited to be sharing this on a nice Tuesday afternoon. It's just so ridiculous. So glad we all have faith in these systems.

I mean it's just I'm tired. I feel like I say that every episode, but it's just like exhausting. And it's so hard to have hope and to want to fight to elect good people when this just seems like the reality. Anyway, all that to say, thank God he is out of the running so the Democrats can run somebody who is not, you know, accused of harassment and abuse. Oh, wait. My God. Okay, well, well, if it's not the abusive wife, then at least they have the billionaire candidate Tom Steyer.

Yeah. Eat the rich. No ethical billionaires, but also this is most likely who is going to be the next governor of California. Right. It all really makes sense. What a mess. Now with the Republican candidates in California, there are fewer accusations of abuse and harassment. I mean, we'll see what happens at this rate, but it actually is also heating up. It's getting a little bit messy because Trump endorsed a man named Steve Hilton.

He is a Fox News contributor. He's actually worked in English politics over in the UK years ago. Trump endorsed him, but interestingly, California Republicans aren't so sure about that. And the California GOP needed a 60% majority vote from their delegates to issue an endorsement, and neither Hilton nor the former Orange County Sheriff Chad Bianco, who's the other man running, neither of them got enough votes from California GOP.

But even more interestingly is that more delegates voted for Bianco versus the Trump endorsed Hilton. So I'm just assessing the situation here, and it seems like that might be a sign for times to come. And Republicans around the country should take note. Because gone are the days that you could skate by with a Trump endorsement and just like a commitment to the MAGA agenda stamped on your campaign website, that's not going to fly anymore.

And honestly, a lot of Republicans might not even like that in the slightest. Like that is done. Like please work harder for our votes. Stand on your own. Do not just rely on Trump. And for the love of God, please do not cheat on your wives. Do not prey on your 20-year-old employees. It genuinely is the bare minimum. Thank you very much.
