Rep. Eric Swalwell responds to reports that FBI wants to revive Chinese spy investigation case
"This case is closed. The FBI said all we did was help. This effort to weaponize the FBI against the president's political enemy at a time that we are at war shows a distraction; it shows an obsession of the going after political opponents."
"The investigation centered on Christine Fang, a Chinese woman who helped with fundraising for Swalwell during his congressional campaign."
"The move to release files of a closed investigation that did not result in criminal charges is unusual."
Congressman Eric Swalwell addressed reports regarding the FBI's potential release of files from an investigation linked to a suspected Chinese spy, Christine Fang. The investigation concluded without evidence of wrongdoing by Swalwell. He criticized the move to release files from a closed case, labeling it a political distraction aimed at undermining him as a political opponent. FBI director Kash Patel has expressed interest in reopening the case to interview Fang in China, which Swalwell views as an obsession with targeting political adversaries.
