Eric Swalwell Keeps Poking The Bear

Posted On May 28, 2020

Someone Should Tell Him

How long can one idiot poke the bear without getting mauled? Answering that question seems to be the mission behind the hapless Representative Eric Swalwell’s taunting tweets to former acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Richard Grenell. Swalwell keeps getting his flatulent posterior handed to him every time, and yet he keeps doing it. Take this tweet, for example:

Tick tock. “Those are coming.” Well, you’re no longer director and the Flynn tapes never came. All you have to show for your work is the dirt on your boots from shoveling and burying evidence for @realDonaldTrump. #ShowUsTheTape https://t.co/ldYLn9LcQl

Apparently the rip roaring Representative doesn’t realize just how little the intel committee is trusted nowadays, after many revelations have been made on a plethora of fronts. But what I wonder is what is it about Grenell which makes Swalwell believe he will cave to a Twitter bully whose only mission seems to be to discredit the former Ambassador before anything is ever published. Grenell, for his part, is showing a massive tolerance level when it comes to that, and the patience of a saint. 

But it all started with this tweet:

Slight correction on your tweet: I trust FBI & Director Wray. I don’t trust @ODNIgov Directors @RichardGrenell or @RepRatcliffe. They’re the ones with the shovels burying evidence to protect @realDonaldTrump. https://t.co/geMiY8sjIq

To which Grenell replies:

I’m letting the public see more info. You are the one who worked to hide the information you didn’t like. You listened to multiple people in classified hearings say they had no evidence and yet go on TV and say the opposite. Transparency is now a must! https://t.co/C0pKnneuoh

This Really Won’t End Well

Apparently Richard Grenell knows who really holds the power, if we’d just wake up and realize it. Which is why he prefers to keep his trap shut about what he has found and simply release it to We The People. Of course, that may be why Swalwell keeps doing stupid things like this:

Thanks for showing up on Twitter. You never once came to brief the Intel Committee (First DNI Director who failed to do so). If you have nothing to hide, why don’t you release Flynn’s call with Russia? #ShowUsTheTape https://t.co/2CbV9O1xMA

Is Swalwell panicking, or just really that obtuse? At any rate, he certainly is dedicated to his brand of stupidity, considering he continues this unwise attack on Grenell, who systematically destroys him with each response. Swalwell continues the war with the first tweet above, to which Grenell delivers this blow:

They are coming. There’s a thoughtful process to transparency. For years you went on TV spreading the Russian propaganda – knowing the entire time that not one single person under oath from your committee saw any collusion. Not one. It’s shameful! https://t.co/APPwAT05DQ

— Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) May 28, 2020

Now, either Swalwell doesn’t understand thoughtful processes, or he is simply trying to shake the unshakable. And maybe Grenell knows it, which is why he continues to slaughter Swalwell every time he bites. This exchange is being watched by a massive audience, who gain quite a bit of entertainment watching Swalwell get kicked in the teeth.

He’s Got Your Number, Eric

Richard Grenell is wise to Swalwell’s game, though. Many times the gaseous guru of “RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA!” tried to goad him into acting rashly, but the former Ambassador proved he was immune to rush orders. His final tweet to Swalwell says it all:

It’s time we brief the American people. We are done with the Washington manipulations. Transparency is needed. https://t.co/q9oy3Nru6U

Eric Swalwell’s tactics should be no surprise to anyone who has been paying attention the past few years. When it is pulled out, it means that’s all they have left. But if you look closely, it also means they have forgotten who is really in charge, and have sought to replace the American people as the sole authority over this country. It is time to remind a hapless and lawless government they work for us, not the other way around. It’s a good thing people like Richard Grenell agree.
