Y<\/a>esterday, Axios reporter Jonathan Swan blasted one of Swalwell\u2019s claims. One of Swalwell\u2019s claims to try to get out of this mess, Swalwell is blaming Trump. He says Trump is behind the story that Swalwell was having an affair with Bang Bang, that Trump leaked all this stuff, that it\u2019s not true, and he\u2019s fed up with it. Now, Jonathan Swan of Axios, who is no friend of Trump\u2019s, by the way, just slapped back at Swalwell and said what he\u2019s saying is completely absurd.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-376253 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/jonathan-swan-e1607628110758.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"336\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Swan said that Swalwell\u2019s claim that Trump is the reason for his troubles is risible. He said just use your common sense. &#8220;Even Swalwell acknowledges that he first found out Axios was on this in 2019.&#8221; I know my colleague at Axios. &#8220;His timeline\u2019s wrong.&#8221; He says July, 2019. It\u2019s not July. &#8220;She\u2019s been working on this for more than a year.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So just anyone who has any passing understanding of how Trump world works, do we really think that they put out some opposition research, i.e., leaking the story about Swalwell and the affair with the Chinese honeypot named Bang Bang, do we really think that the Trump team would put that story out and then wait a year after an election to leak it? That\u2019s absurd. The Trump campaign can\u2019t wait longer than a day. If they leak something like this out, they would certainly not wait \u2019til after the election. &#8220;Give me a break,&#8221; Swan said. &#8220;This is completely absurd.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2020\/12\/09\/chicom-spy-sunk-her-fangs-into-smarmy-swalwell\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-375920\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120920-Swallwell-AXIOS-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120920-Swallwell-AXIOS-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120920-Swallwell-AXIOS-4-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/APP-120920-Swallwell-AXIOS-4-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So not even the Drive-By Media, not all of them, anyway, are rallying to Swalwell\u2019s side. A lot of them are. A lot of them are. Major Drive-By Media has ignored Swalwell\u2019s involvement with Bang Bang. Daily Caller has a story: &#8220;Media Largely Ignores the Report of Swalwell\u2019s Involvement with Suspected Chinese Honeypot.&#8221; ABC, CBS, NBC did not report the news on their morning or evening shows for the entirety of the day Tuesday. The New York Times, the Washington Post did not report on the story. CNN did not do anything on air or on its online website. But Axios, who originally reported the story, did. So now Swalwell\u2019s having to come out and defend himself. He\u2019s blaming Trump and so forth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Axios reporter Jonathan Swan blasted one of Swalwell&#039;s claims.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":375920,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
