Swalwell humiliated by Kash Patel
Rep. Eric Swalwell, the frontrunner in the Democrat primary for California governor, is facing explosive new accusations of sexual misconduct from a total of four women, including a former staffer who claims he raped her twice.
The allegations of the former staffer, who was the first to come forward, were initially reported by the San Francisco Chronicle.
After the initial article was published, three additional women spoke to CNN and provided evidence about alleged additional misconduct.
The explosive allegations come just weeks before California’s June primary and prompted immediate calls from Democrat leaders, including Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff, for Swalwell to drop out of the race.
The most serious claims come from an unnamed former congressional staffer who began working for Swalwell as a 20-year-old intern on his 2019 presidential campaign and later served in his district and Washington, D.C., offices.
She told the San Francisco Chronicle and CNN that Swalwell had nonconsensual sexual contact with her on two occasions while she was black out drunk.
In 2019, she says she woke up naked in his hotel room with no memory of what happened.
In 2024, years after she left his employment, she alleges that Swalwell raped her.
The woman said she was “pushing him off of me, saying no… He didn’t stop,” and that he left her bruised and bleeding.
Her account is corroborated by text messages, interviews with relatives and a friend, and medical records showing she sought STD and pregnancy testing afterward.
A second woman, who connected with Swalwell online over Democratic politics, told CNN that he kissed her and touched her leg without consent during a night out.
That woman claims she later ended up “extremely drunk” in his hotel room and has little memory of what happened next.
Social media creator Ally Sammarco accused Swalwell of sending her unsolicited nude photos after they connected on X to discuss politics.
“I truly never thought he would respond – I had like 1,000 followers at the time,” Sammarco told CNN. “And he actually responded.”

A fourth woman, who works in marketing, claimed Swalwell sent her “several videos of his penis,” which she said she did not ask for.
CNN reported that it reviewed screenshots of dozens of messages exchanged between Swalwell and the women.
Many of the explicit exchanges allegedly occurred via Snapchat, where messages automatically delete within a day.
CNN reports:
An attorney for Swalwell sent two of the women CNN spoke with cease-and-desist letters on Thursday, a day after CNN first reached out to his campaign to request comment, according to copies of the letters they provided CNN. The letters called the women’s accounts “false,” ordered them to retract their statements and warned of potential legal action if they continue speaking out.
The letters said the women’s claims were “undermined” by their “voluntary and cooperative relationship with Mr. Swalwell over the course of many years” following the alleged incidents, including the former staffer asking him for job references.
Swalwell has denied all the allegations.
In a statement to CNN, Swalwell said, “These allegations are false and come on the eve of an election against the front-runner for governor for nearly 20 years. I have served the public as a prosecutor and a congressman and have always protected women. I will defend myself with the facts and where necessary bring legal action.”
Swalwell’s attorney added that the gubernatorial candidate has “never had nonconsensual sex with any woman or ever had sexual relations with any member of his staff.”

The CNN report added:
But several of the women who made allegations about Swalwell said that the congressman’s actions had long-term implications on their lives, leaving them confused, distraught and scared. They said they decided to come forward after hearing rumors that they were not alone in their experiences with the congressman.
“I always felt like if I came forward, I was going to suffer the consequences because he was so powerful,” the former staffer who accused Swalwell of assaulting her said, adding, “I’ve lived in fear every single day.”
The scandal has already caused visible damage to Swalwell’s campaign.
At least one of his staffers has resigned.
Former Rep. Katie Porter, another contender, called the allegations “troubling” and said she believes the accusers.
The women’s accounts have not led to criminal charges at this time, and no lawsuits have been publicly filed.
Swalwell is married and has three children. His wife has not publicly commented on the scandal at this time.
