@BillMelugin_ @FoxNews A criminal prosecution is necessary, Congress cant be trusted to hold its members accountable.

NEW: The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirms to @FoxNews that Lonna Drewes, who accused Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) today of drugging & raping her in a West Hollywood hotel in 2018, is currently at their WeHo station being interviewed by detectives with her attorneys.

🚨#BREAKING: The woman who was randomly shot in the face 6 times and st*bbed to de*th while she was walking her dog in Atlanta GA has been identified as 40-year-old Lauren Bullis. The suspect, “Olaolukitan Adon Abel” was also allegedly in the process of se*ually assaulting her before neighbors came to the scene. Olaolukitan is charged with 3 other "completely random" shootings and the de*th of another woman. We do not have to live like this.

This might be the most brutal community note of all time

Illegal immigrants killed 13,000 Americans in 2024. The total number of homicides in the US in 2024 was 20,162. That's 64% of all murders.

If u are unvaccinated, how many times did you get sick with COVID?

Who voted for this?

@RepLuna Needs to be charged with rape.

It is unacceptable for Swalwell to end his campaign for Governor yet remain in Congress. Eric, either resign now or I will call a vote for expulsion. This type of behavior has no place in the U.S. Capitol.

@GovPressOffice @GOP Comming from the guy who suppotts full term abortions, and considering post birth abortions.

Hey @GOP, you good with your guy directly attacking the Pope now? We know the leadership of the Republican Party is on their knees (not praying!) but if anyone over there still has a spine, this is an easy one!

@CA_Dem Day late on denouncing Swalwell.

Statement from Chair Rusty Hicks on Eric Swalwell’s decision to end his campaign for Governor.

@Marvin_Kline_NW @katieporterca Yea, lining their pockets so much they are chosse to leave the state.

Big oil companies line the pockets of shareholders- yes, that is generally the point of running a for-profit company. Bigger concern should be oil companies lining the pockets of members of Congress. Just like every other industry - health care, including insurers and Big Pharma, in particular.

In Congress, I held polluters and their enablers accountable. As Governor, I will lead the charge to protect California’s environmental laws—and our people.

@katieporterca I spent 25 years enforcing Ca Laws and Regs, which are over the top.

@Saintgrax1 @toobaffled Dont fight the science.

@toobaffled Vaers is a passive reporting system Not proof of anything In this case the spike is due for the change of the denominator changed ie the total number of reported pregnancies hence why looks like a spike really isn’t e statistically it was the same as previous years

VAERS dropped the receipts on miscarriage/stillbirth reports by year… and just take a look at 2021-2022. From basically flatline for decades to over 3,500+ reports in 2021 alone? That’s not a gentle curve - that’s a cliff. They told pregnant women these shots were ‘safe and effective,’ pushed them hard… and now we’re staring at this explosion in reports right after the rollout. Coincidence? Or is the ‘root cause’ conversation they shut down on autism about to blow up here too? Hospitals reporting days with ZERO births? Empty delivery rooms? What the actual is going on with our kids and the next generation?

I am filing a motion to expel Eric Swalwell from Congress.

So the Dems don’t want Swalwell to be governor of California, but he can stay a member of Congress? Are we running a halfway house for sexual predators in Congress now? No. He should not be allowed to stay in Congress.

Masoumeh Ebtekar - also known as "Screaming Mary" - was the spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days - subjecting them to beatings, starvation, and mock executions. In 2014, the Obama Administration granted visas to her son and his family to enter the United States. In June 2016, the Obama Administration gave them lawful permanent resident status via the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program. This week, I terminated their lawful permanent resident status and today, Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi, and their son are now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement pending their removal from our country. Her family should never have been allowed to benefit from the extraordinary privilege of living in our country. America can never become home for anti-American terrorists or their families - and under the Trump Administration, it never will.

🚨 BREAKING: Outrage is erupting nationwide after a known violent criminal with over 60 CHARGES killed US Marine Daniel Montano, 21, in Wilmington NC Davy Spencer LENGTHY record includes felonies and violent offenses. They knew. But judges released him. LOCK UP THE JUDGES.

Foreign born members of Congress… Senate: 6 House: 26 None had to do a FBI background check to receive Classified Information. How is this not a National Security risk? I can’t even believe this is true. Insane.

@Milajoy We make voter fraud so easy in the USA.

Pakistanis are VOTING in US elections from INSIDE Pakistan through California. Like WT ACTUAL F?

The vaccine dosage was obviously too high and done too many times. I had the original Wuhan virus before there was any vaccine and it was much like any other cold/flu. Bad, but not terrible. But my second vaccine shot almost sent me to the hospital. Felt like I was dying.

Good evening @RepRoKhanna. We hope you had a nice Saturday. Several people have requested we comment on your post. We will quickly before we take Mrs. USOGA out for date night. First - like you, we hope this war will end soon and things will return to normal. Until then - things will be what they will be. But high gas prices in your district aren’t “Trump’s war”—they’re Sacramento’s doing. California drivers pay nearly double the national average in state taxes, plus cap-and-trade, Low Carbon Fuel Standard, unique reformulated gasoline, refinery limits, and geographic isolation that blocks cheap imports. That adds $1.00–$1.78+ over the U.S. average. Here is our suggestion. Your proposed windfall profits tax will do nothing to bring relief to your overtaxed and underappreciated constituents. Instead -suspend those state-level taxes first and bring California prices in line with the national average. Put your state bureaucracy on a diet. They could stand to shed a few pounds. Encourage California domestic oil and gas production and expand your refinery capacity instead of shutting it down. Stand up to your Governor. You know he is wrong and you can be on the right side of things And let's talk windfall profits tax. They don't work. While you don't call it a windfall profits tax, California recently passed one and called it a "wealth tax" now you see high net worth individuals fleeing your state. History proves it backfires. The 1980 Crude Oil Windfall Profit Tax cut domestic production 1–8% (hundreds of millions of barrels lost), boosted imports 3–13%, raised far less revenue than projected after deductions, created massive bureaucracy, and was repealed in 1988 because it discouraged supply exactly when America needed more. That in turn led us to depend even more on Middle East imports for another 20 years right up until the shale revolution occurred. Kind of like how California is dependent on imports now. Your repeated sponsorship of a new Big Oil Windfall Profits Tax Act would repeat the exact same mistake—shrinking U.S. output and raising costs. Crude exports? They expand global supply, narrow price spreads (WTI-Brent) which is exerts downward pressure on world prices. It is directly helping allies in Europe and Asia counter China's skirting sanctions and colluding with Iran to purchase crude at huge discounts. Restricting exports would tighten markets, spike costs everywhere—including here—and hurt the consumers you claim to protect. Finally we must also point out that your voting record shows consistent opposition to our industry you want to tax. For example, you: Voted against leasing more public lands and waters for oil drilling (2023, Roll Call 23). Voted against reversing land-management protections to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) to oil and gas drilling—multiple times, including 2025 Roll Call 295 and earlier efforts to halt ANWR development. Opposed critical oil and gas leasing reforms and fast-tracking fossil-fuel infrastructure (2024 Roll Call 95; 2025 votes undermining LNG authority and blocking fracking bans). Voted NO on NDAA provisions that would expedite oil/gas permitting (2022–2023). You have a 99% lifetime League of Conservation Voters score—near-perfect opposition to domestic energy exploration, production and leasing. You’ve led hearings attacking us and sponsored bills to repeal industry tax provisions. Fine—own that record. But please stop shifting blame to “Trump’s war” or federal policy while California’s own choices keep your constituents paying the highest pump prices in America. Real relief comes from more American supply + streamlined permitting, not recycled 1980s taxes or more restrictions. Energy abundance, not rhetoric, lowers prices and bolsters U.S. and allied security. Mrs. USOGA has instructed us to put the phone away so we will do that. Have a good weekend.
