Swalwell believed ‘Fang Fang was just a girl next door that you brought home to mom’: Joe Concha
Washington Examiner columnist Joe Concha slammed former Democratic California Rep. Eric Swalwell for his ties to suspected Chinese intelligence operative Christine Fang, also known as “Fang Fang,” and said the latest FBI raid of Swalwell’s devices came as no surprise. “This is the least surprising development that we’re seeing as far as these charges since the sun rising in the east,” Concha said on Fox News’s Hannity on Thursday.
