Standing athwart the political divide and yelling STOP since 1987. Humans are imperfect & imperfectable: this is a feature, not a bug.


DEVELOPING: As @USATTYPIRRO Launches Swalwell Tip Line, @RepLuna Says Major “Purge” on Capitol Hill is Just Beginning; Calls Swalwell's Potentially Criminal Conduct an Open Secret And Vows to Expose Taxpayer “Slush Fund” Used For Sexual Harassment Settlements This week on Straight to the Point, GOP Rep. Anna Paulina Luna sat down to discuss why she drafted a motion to expel @RepSwalwell and exclusively revealed the support she says she received from his own Chief of Staff. The Congresswoman has new insights into the now infamous hotel video and warned that additional House members and at least one sitting Senator have serious questions to answer. Rep. Luna told us that we are only days away from finding out just how much taxpayer money is used for a congressional slush fund to bury sexual harassment and other disputes. She also discussed the “Wolf of Wall Street” insider trading by members of Congress and their families, seeking justice on Epstein, the Republican midterm outlook, and more. Eric Swalwell: “I am deeply sorry to my family, staff, and constituents for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past. I will fight the serious false allegation made against me.” There was no immediate comment from the Senate offices we contacted. Straight to the Point: Rep.
