In a stunning display of leftist delusion, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) went on CNN Thursday night to celebrate what he claimed was DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's firing, declaring that "everyone in America is safer" without her leading the department.
But there's just one problem with Swalwell's victory lap – Noem herself is firing back against what she's calling blatantly inaccurate media reporting.
During a tense exchange captured by C-SPAN, Swalwell pressed Noem about reports that she had fired one of her pilots. "Did you or your staff fire one of your pilots recently?" the California Democrat demanded.
"No," Noem responded flatly.
When Swalwell pushed further, asking if "the story was incorrect," Noem delivered a scathing rebuke of the mainstream media: "I was surprised that the Wall Street Journal would publish that many inaccuracies in one article."
Social media erupted over the exchange, with one user noting that "Democratic House Rep. Eric Swalwell confirms the reports that Donald Trump is quizzing the Hill on whether or not he should fire DHS Secretary Kristi Noem."
But patriots aren't buying Swalwell's narrative. Another social media user pointed out inconsistencies in the Democrat's claims, asking: "What charge was dismissed to avoid going to trial?" – highlighting how Swalwell's own credibility remains in tatters.
The Swamp Strikes Again
This is classic Deep State playbook, folks. Anonymous sources leak dubious stories to friendly media outlets, then Democrat attack dogs like Swalwell rush to CNN to celebrate before the facts are even verified. It's the same garbage we've seen for years.
Remember, this is the same Eric Swalwell who had a cozy relationship with a Chinese spy and somehow still sits on the House Intelligence Committee. Now he wants Americans to believe he knows what makes us "safer"?
President Trump hasn't confirmed any personnel changes at DHS, and Noem's forceful pushback against the media's "inaccuracies" suggests reports of her demise may be greatly exaggerated. Once again, it looks like the legacy media jumped the gun to push their anti-Trump narrative.
The question patriots should be asking: How many more "inaccurate" stories will the mainstream media publish before Americans stop believing their lies?
