Victor Davis Hanson EVISCERATES Eric Swalwell Over Fang Fang Banging

Posted • November 21, 2025: Jimmy Kimmel returned to actual comedy on Thursday when Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-14) made an appearance on his show to announce his run for California governor. Pop the popcorn, because this already packed 2026 race has just gotten even more laughable. —— Eric Swawell announced his bid for California Governor on the Jimmy Kimmel show. No wonder no one heard about it. —— Isn't that precious? He has half the looks of present Gov. Gavin Newsom and zero charm, yet he thinks he can rise above the fray on what, exactly? Saying you will protect Californians against fascist President Trump is neither original nor noteworthy, and every candidate in the race is promising to bring down costs. And California is the fourth largest country?! What a terrible error to make for your campaign launch on national television. Like the man barely maintaining the office, Swalwell has an inflated opinion of his failing state and himself.

The legacy media is expressing doubts on this launch, seeing Swalwell's entry into the race as a reflection of the fractures in the Democrat Party. “Rep. Eric Swalwell, an outspoken Donald Trump antagonist, is running for California governor, adding one more Democrat hopeful to the jam-packed field. The seven-term member of Congress, who represents the San Francisco Bay Area, said on his website he “is running for Governor with fresh ideas and tremendous heart” before appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday night. “I’m running for Governor because prices are too high and people are scared,” he wrote. A Swalwell candidacy was on nobody’s radar just a few months ago. His decision to enter the race late in the year — when other candidates have had as much as a year’s head start — is the latest sign of an unsettled Democratic field in the race to succeed Gavin Newsom, with no decisive frontrunner.”

Swalwell might want to tread carefully, though, as he may get boiling potatoes aimed at his head by one of his opponents. You know who… —— Katie Porter @katieporteroc: “The time for patience is over. When I’m Governor, there won’t be any more waiting to make the investments care workers deserve. I’ll get it done.” https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1991693665866018816/vid/avc1/1080x1920/aJ0R2JdshQGdt3Wd.mp4 —— Swalwell also fails in the intersectionality category that is so important to Democrats: He's a white, heterosexual male, and a boring one at that. Perhaps Swalwell plans to come out as non-binary somewhere between now and June 2026. Who knows? Swalwell (and the rest, frankly) will also be outspent by billionaire and California gubernatorial candidate Tom Steyer, whose calling card seems to be gumming up the wheels of governance just because. Steyer has picked up the progressive Democrats' penchant for using swear words to show that he's really one of us <insert *eyeroll* emoji>

💥 Victor Davis Hanson *EVISCERATES* Eric Swalwell over Fang Fang allegations. 💥 "You would have to be a stupid, narcissistic IDIOT to fall for that! I'm serious!" - "And he fell for that! And he got involved with her when he was on the House Intelligence Committee. So end of story with that guy.” (…)
