And his Platner endorsement, with Oyster Cracker’s history of misogyny, or Gallego’s own comments about women that have come to light?

The pieces don’t add up to him beating the rap on Swalwell.

But I will say this: Gallego's comments about Democrats "not allowing men to be men" lead me to believe that whether it is this election cycle or a future one, some shoes are going to drop on him.

a lot of people seem convinced that gallego had to know and frankly I think that is

1) an assumption that carries more weight than an assumption should hold

2) kinda fucking crazy. there are people who are friends with murderers who have no idea. I don't think he was talking about rape nonstop.

You know what, I love that the Swalwell scandal is ruining the career of one of the most right-wing Democrats in the Senate. Gallego shouldn't be the only right-wing Democrat whose career becomes unviable as a result of this whole thing.

On the one hand, it's sort of surprising Gallego is catching second-degree heat from this. This is miles distant from a consistent standard we hold politician's endorsements or friendships to. Or hold Republicans to ever.

OTOH, I don't hate the standard. And I'm a low-key Gallego hater.

the only thing i'll say about Gallego right now is that, in my experience, the main thing you can infer from the fact that two people like getting drunk together is that they both like to drink

This makes me sick.
WHY DOESN'T THE MSM MEDIA go after SO MANY REPUBLICANS WHO ARE THE MOST VILE SEXUAL ABUSERS

Senator Gallego @gallego.senate.gov
Senator Gallego, a GOOD ARIZONA DEMOCRAT SENATOR. but a wake up call for him
You are not responsible for Swalwell but, learn wisely sir

i find it bizarre that the problem with gallego would be that he is close with swalwell and not that he voted for the laken riley act. what is it with people on this site and politicians' character superseding their legislative actions?

There are things I like about Gallego. I don’t think this should be career-ending for him.

BUT ALSO, men need to start holding your friends accountable. “I didn’t do it I just sat by and pretended not to notice” isn’t going to work anymore.

"inappropriate behavior"

The allegations are that his best friend is a sexually violent criminal -- and that Gallego covered for him.

Why the fuck is the press badgering Gallego over Swalwell's bad behavior?

Has the world gone mad? A criminal predator lives in the White House and they've never held his feet to the fire. But a friend is automatically to blame for not stopping Swalwell? Get out of here.

The press is hammering Gallego for associating with Swalwell. Meanwhile, Trump spent years as best friends with Epstein and moved his accomplice Maxwell to minimum security and reporters are too scared to ask questions about it.

Q: You've gone on trips, vacations, you've got out with the congressman. You never even witnessed him engaging in an affair?

GALLEGO: No

Thing about Gallego is the President raped children.

Listen, if Gallego is releasing his texts, I want the texts of Republican Senators and Members who hung out socially with Trump and Gonzales and other Republicans accused of predatory sexual behavior.

Let's have full transparency across the board. Clean House, baby!

One of the Qs asked about "compromising photos" Gallego was in with Swalwell, referring to a photo of them "shirtless."

As Gallego says: It was a pic of them on camels on a beach, taken and posted by Gallego's wife. www.businessinsider.com/eric-swallwe...

This framing is 🗑️. But, it says a lot about how little we expect from men.

Gallego is not responsible for Swalwell’s behavior. He IS, however, accountable for behavior he sanctioned by his presence.

"Anyone else? Last call"

Gallego: "Let's not use 'last call'"

Incisive coverage of Swalwell, @msnowreports.bsky.social. YOU WOULD DO WELL TO POINT OUT THAT POTUS WAS CONVICTED OF SEXUAL ABUSE. Or didn't you think that was relevant? Seems somewhat more salient than grilling Gallego...

Seeing Senator Gallego interrogated by the press over his connection to Swalwell, while the President and other Republicans escape similar treatment for their own associations, is next-level hypocrisy.

Gallego gets emotional: "It hurts. It hurts that he hurt a lot of people. And it pisses me off that now we all have to deal with all of his BS."

Pertaining to Gallego...why is it when reporters are talking to Dems they ask hard hitting questions and follow ups but with the demented pedophile and his henchmen, they just let him keep lying with no pushback?

Isn't Gallego one of the Senators endorsing Nazi Platner?

Those saxophones are playing quietly in the distance ...

OMG leave Gallego alone. Why is no outrage EVER directed at the Republican party but every Democrat is burned at the stake?
