Rep. Swalwell Falsely Claims Don Jr. ‘Received Dirt’ from Russians on Hillary

RUSH EXCERPT:

SWALWELL: “Good evening, Chris. It's all the more reason we should make sure we protect the Mueller investigation, especially as we're on the eve of a potential government shutdown. The Republicans can't sort a vote out among themselves to keep the government open. Democrats want to negotiate. But something that I and others would like to see is that the special counsel's investigation be allowed to proceed without the president as it gets closer to he and his family interfering in it. Also, Chris, Flynn represents the quo. There's a quid pro quo, you know, in every transaction. And you had the Russians offering dirt, Donald Trump Jr. accepting the dirt, and then candidate Trump telling the Russians if you're listening you'll be rewarded if you give us more dirt. So what was the quo after the Russians delivered by interfering? Well, Flynn represents part of it by telling the ambassador, hold off on any retaliation against us. But the other question that is outstanding, as we learn about the Saudis and the Turks is, are there other countries and are there other quos? It looks like this president was open to do business with anyone that wanted to help him.”
