On Friday House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA) attended an FBI briefing about Rep. Eric Swalwell s (D-CA) ties to an alleged Chinese spy, Fang Fang, or Christine Fang. McCarthy has called for Pelosi to immediately remove Swalwell from the House Intelligence Committee because he could be threatening national security. And he, like many other Republicans, want to know exactly how much Pelosi did or didn t know about Swalwell s relationship to Fang when she appointed him to the committee. When did Nancy Pelosi know of this and why did she maintain him on the committee? McCarthy has asked. Adam Schiff, who has spent four years as chair, worried about the foreign intervention into our country, knowingly keep an individual on the committee, if he knew as Swalwell says that he was with a Chinese individual who was a spy, who helped him run for Congress.
