Comedy Shows Tell Zero Swalwell Jokes After Sexual Assault Allegations

This past week, liberal hero Eric Swalwell has been compelled to end his California gubernatorial bid and resign from Congress because of allegations that he is a rapist.

CBS Continues to Milk Trump-Leo Beef, Knocks Hegseth for ‘Pharisees’
