The congressman said the caller, who said he was a gay man, "went on a rant regarding gay issues" and "used the F slur several times."

Rep. Eric Swalwell of the Bay Area has spent years pushing legislation to forgive student loan interest and set rates to zero.

The Democrat, who serves on the House Intelligence Committee, reacted to news Trump had more than 300 classified documents at Mar-a-Lago.

Swalwell shared a chilling, nearly two-minute voice message laden with threats and profanity that he says he received because of the Mar-a-Lago raid.

In the two months since the Supreme Court struck down federal abortion rights, Democrats are gravitating toward a freedom-focused message more commonly used as a rallying cry by Republicans.

It's definitely not because she's intimidating.

The girl's mother notified Franklin County Children Services of the pregnancy just two days before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.

Americans United for Life's CEO told Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) that a child rape victim ending her pregnancy is “not an abortion.” Huh?

The California Democratic slammed the extremist congresswoman for inciting violence and shared audio of a call threatening his children.

The director of the federal Bureau of Prisons and a task force of senior agency officials traveled recently to a federal women's prison in California.

Florida Rep. Byron Donalds and Texas congressional candidate Wesley Hunt, two Black Republicans who are in interracial marriages, slammed Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., for claiming that Republicans want to ban interracial marriage.

There are still several Kremlin accounts active on Twitter. How come?

Eight House Democrats are demanding the Bureau of Prisons make public an audit of sexual assault reports at a federal women's prison in California where inmates say they were subjected to rampant abuse.

Only a little more than a week ago, President Joe Biden’s first State of the Union address was focusing on the American economy and public health.

"It's such an awful thing to say," the Fox News host complained after people accused him of rooting for Russia.

The U.S. Congress is largely backing President Joe Biden’s decision to impose sanctions on Russia.

A federal judge has rejected efforts by former President Donald Trump to toss out lawsuits filed by lawmakers and two Capitol Police officers that claim his actions led to the riot on Jan. 6, 2021.

The new top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee says President Joe Biden’s administration needs to ramp up military and intelligence support for Ukraine.

Attorneys for former President Donald Trump and his associates argue that incendiary statements by Trump and others last Jan. 6 prior to the Capitol riot were protected speech and in line with their official duties.

GOP Rep. Mo Brooks is seeking immunity from lawsuit over Jan. 6 Capitol attack

Several House Democrats have called on House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy to apologize to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi or resign after audio surfaced of him saying at a fundraiser over the weekend that it would be “hard not to hit her” with a gavel if he’s sworn in as speaker after the 2022 midterm elections.

When the suspect looked away, the man took the opportunity to quickly speed away from the ATM, but not before his cash was stolen.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy “a moron” on Wednesday in response to a reporter who asked her about McCarthy's suggestion that the decision late Tuesday night by Congress's top physician to reinstate a mask mandate indoors on the House side of the Capitol wasn't based on science. Later at a press conference, Pelosi said, “To say that wearing a mask is not based on science, I think, is not wise.”

The Justice Department said it inciting an attack on the Capitol, as alleged in the lawsuit against Brooks, falls outside the scope of a lawmakers' employment.

A civil lawsuit accuses Brooks, an Alabama Republican, of helping incite a pro-Trump mob into storming the Capitol on Jan. 6. Named alongside Brooks in the suit is former President Trump and others.

The Justice filing found Brooks failed to establish he was acting "within the scope of his office" when he spoke at a rally prior to the Capitol riot.

The Justice Department is considering whether the federal officials who spoke at a Trump rally ahead of the insurrection were acting within the scope of their jobs that day.

OK, but imagine Cruz as a pro wrester?

"If you ran into Matt Gaetz or Ted Cruz or Jim Jordan at the Santa Monica Pier, you would say: 'These are nice guys!'" said Swalwell during a podcast on Tuesday.

Swalwell believed the building was secure and precautions were just being taken. But the House Chaplain's unsolicited prayer left him "shaken."

The GOP lawmaker had been evading the lawsuit for months

Rep. Andrew Clyde refused to shake the hand of a D.C. Metropolitan Police Department officer who defended the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 siege, two of his House colleagues claimed on Wednesday.

The new policy comes amid reports that the Trump-era Justice Department seized data on two Democratic congressmen

Former President Donald Trump has made no secret of his long list of political enemies.

Apple is seeking to protect its image as a guardian of personal privacy, maintaining it was blindsided and handcuffed by a Trump administration probe that resulted in the company handing over phone data from two Democratic congressmen.

The Justice Department inspector general's review will examine whether the department's subpoenas or the investigations "were based on improper considerations."

At least two Democrats and their families had Apple data seized under President Trump, US media say.

Justice Dept.'s internal watchdog will investigate secret subpoenas to obtain records on Adam Schiff and others during Trump administration.

Reps. Schiff and Eric Swalwell, whose records were both reportedly seized by Trump's Justice Department, called on the DOJ inspector general to investigate.

The DOJ used a grand jury to subpoena Apple for the data.

The subpoena was part of an effort to find the source of leaks of classified information in the early years of the Trump administration. Ultimately, the data did not tie the committee to the leaks.

The House has rejected an attempt to boot a Democrat from the House intelligence committee. Democrats scuttled a Republican effort to remove Swalwell from the intelligence panel. Democrats scuttled the effort from House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy, 218-200, after he forced a vote. After the briefing, which was also attended by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, McCarthy said he thought Swalwell should be removed. The Republican resolution comes as the once-bipartisan intelligence panel deals with the raw feelings left by the investigations into former President Donald Trump’s ties to Russia.

Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., speaks during the second impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump in the Senate at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, Wednesday, Feb. 10, 2021. Swalwell's attorney Philip Andonian praised Thompson’s lawsuit, filed under a Reconstruction-era law called the Ku Klux Klan Act, and said they were behind it 100%, but saw the need for this one, too. “We see ourselves as having a different angle to this, holding Trump accountable for the incitement, the disinformation,” he said. But the lawsuit, like the one by Thompson, was brought against Trump in his personal, not official, capacity. “Unable to accept defeat, Donald Trump waged an all out war on a peaceful transition of power,” Swalwell said in a statement.

(AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)WASHINGTON – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Monday that Congress will establish an independent, Sept. 11-style commission to look into the deadly insurrection that took place at the U.S. Capitol. In a letter to Democratic colleagues, Pelosi said the House will also put forth supplemental spending to boost security at the Capitol. After former President Donald Trump’s acquittal at his second Senate impeachment trial, bipartisan support appeared to be growing for an independent commission to examine the deadly insurrection. AdInvestigations into the riot were already planned, with Senate hearings scheduled later this month in the Senate Rules Committee. An independent commission along the lines of the one that investigated the Sept. 11 attacks would probably require legislation to create.

(Senate Television via AP)NEW YORK – All the words abounded — the ones that you're not supposed to hear on broadcast television or, for that matter, in a lot of other places. Many of the networks bleeped out the offending language when repeating videos later, but not when they were broadcast live. WHAT'S THE LIKELIHOOD THAT BROADCAST NETWORKS WILL BE PENALIZED? Networks could argue the same thing with the impeachment trial; it strengthens that point when they “bleeped” out the bad language for later reruns. Given the explicitness of the language used this week, during daytime hours, Levinson said he believes it's a watershed moment in broadcast standards.

Trump's lawyers made an abbreviated presentation that used less than three of their allotted 16 hours. But in trying to draw that equivalency, the defenders minimized Trump's months-long efforts to undermine the election results and his urging of followers to do the same. On Friday, as defense lawyers repeated their own videos over and over, some Democrats chuckled and whispered among themselves as many of their faces flashed on the screen. Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet said it felt like the lawyers were “erecting straw men to then take them down rather than deal with the facts." Trump's lawyers say that goal only underscores the “hatred” Democrats feel for Trump.

NEW SURVEILLANCE FOOTAGETo reconstruct the siege for senators, Democrats aired never-before-seen security footage from inside the Capitol that showed the attack unfolding. “Vice President Pence had the courage to stand against the president, tell the American public the truth and uphold our Constitution. Many Republicans had been appalled by Trump's treatment of his most loyal soldier during his final days in office. AdREPUBLICANS HOLD FIRMThere appears little chance enough Republicans will break with Democrats to convict Trump at the end of the trial. The video evidence was “nothing new here, for me, at the end of the day,” said Hawley, who maintains the trial is unconstitutional.

Even out of office, Democrats warned, Trump could whip up a mob of followers for similar damage. Even out of the White House, the former president holds influence over large swaths of voters. Rioters roamed the halls chanting, “Hang Mike Pence,” and eerily singing out, “Where are you, Nancy?” in search of Pelosi. The first president to face an impeachment trial after leaving office, Trump is also the first to be twice impeached. His lawyers say he cannot be convicted because he is already gone from the White House.

During the trial's first afternoon break, Fox turned to Trump spokesman Jason Miller, who denounced the Democrats' case.

Many Democrats have pushed for an immediate impeachment trial to hold Trump accountable and prevent him from holding future office, and the proceedings could still begin by Inauguration Day. Psaki noted that during Trump's first impeachment trial last year, the Senate continued to hold hearings each day. Pelosi told reporters on Friday that the nine House impeachment managers, who act as the prosecutors for the House, are working on taking the case to trial. McConnell is open to considering impeachment, having told associates he is done with Trump, but he has not signaled how he would vote. No president has ever been convicted in the Senate, and it would take a two-thirds vote against Trump, an extremely high hurdle.
