Swalwell and the Chinese Operative | Washington DC News

FBI files reveal former Rep. Eric Swalwell admitted to multiple physical encounters with Christine Fang, a suspected Chinese intelligence operative, before entering Congress — including one after he took heavy sleep medication and had no memory of it. Though Swalwell insists the relationship was purely casual, he acknowledged she may have wanted more romance. The FBI investigated Fang for ties to China and election law violations — finding none against Swalwell, but confirming Fang broke federal campaign rules. They’d even tried to recruit her as a confidential source, and she repeatedly urged Swalwell to visit China.
