Don’t forget Eric Swalwell, the bane of the House GOP.
From the Daily Kos:
Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell used his time during the hearing to point out the discrepancies in special counsel Robert Hur’s strangely worded report on Biden’s handling of classified documents. After noting that in the transcript of his interview with Biden, Hur remarked that the chief executive had “a photographic understanding” of things (language Hur conveniently left off his final report), Swalwell introduced a stellar supercut of Donald Trump being anything but “photographic” in his recall of … anything.
He was raised in a Republican family. Most of the men are police officers. He’s our guy from CA and believe me, he, Lieu, Schiff, Lee, and Porter are adored.
To Victoria Hochman; Yes, many agree that was an unfortunate contest.
KATIE PORTER v ADAM SCHIFF… Katie’s time for senate could come in the future. She had ‘learned the house’ quickly and used that knowledge with great results.
People everywhere appreciate her unrefutable whiteboard numbers and logic. She should stay where she shines rather than leave her spot to a new person (hopefully another Dem) who would have to learn where all the minefields are all over again. Did Katie’s advisors give her the same advice?
….Maybe they didn’t because perhaps they wanted to follow her into the senate?
…. Maybe they did encourage her to stay in the House but she ignored their advice?
As of Dec 31,2023 in California there were 40 Democrats and 11 GOP reps in the House. Of the 40 Dems, only 7 were elected since 2019. 33 Dems have way more experience working as reps than those 7 relative newcomers, of which Katie is one.
Adam Schiff has served admirably in the House for 23 years gaining invaluable experience before making a bid for a Senate seat in the U.S Congress.
Well, that was apparently how many California voters saw the situation. Mr. Schiff was successful and Katie lost. They liked Katie’s style of representation in the House and it was too soon for her to make that ambitious senate bid.
I’m not a CA voter, but I really love Katie Porter. She was so effective in the House, I so wish she hadn’t chosen to run against Schiff. imo, that was just getting too ambitious a bit too soon.
What made her think she could beat Schiff, with his 23 yrs experience & his probable greater fundraising muscle?
Now we Dems have emptied 3 House seats, when it should have been only 1
Are there some strong Dems ready to run to fill those 3 seats? I sure hope so

True enough! Swalwell is smart as a whip!
MAGATs attack him constantly with threats. 🤬
These people are dangerous and primitive 🙄
Lizard brains.
I'm only sorry that he and Porter were pitted against each other. She was the best!
