Outgoing White House trade adviser Pete Navarro sounded off on Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., for his “lecturing” in Congress about impropriety while remaining silent on the intelligence showing he was infiltrated by Chinese spy Fang Fang.<\/p>\n
“Yeah, if I can be a little crude here: The STD is now the ‘spy transmitted disease’ there in California,” Navarro told\u00a0Fox News’ “Justice”<\/a>\u00a0with Judge Jeanine Pirro.<\/p>\n “She not only slept with Swalwell, but she went up and down the coast sleeping with mayors. This is the ultimate honey pot.”<\/p>\n Navarro, who has long been hawkish on the Chinese Communist Party, rejected Swalwell’s authority on the subject after U.S. intelligence has warned him he was close to a known Chinese operative who has since left the country.<\/p>\n “This is what the Chinese do,” Navarro, who wrote a number of books on malign Chinese influence, including “Crouching Tiger: What China’s Militarism Means for the World<\/a>,” told host Pirro. “They try to ensnare you with money and favors, this, that, and the other thing.”<\/p>\n House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., has kept Swalwell on the House Intelligence Committee and the House Judiciary Committee, the former of which is problematic amid the reports of being compromised.<\/p>\n “That guy, [Swalwell] I’m so sick of that guy standing up in the well of Congress, high and mighty, lecturing Donald Trump or anybody else,” Navarro concluded.<\/p>\n “Come on, just get rid of that guy. Come on.”<\/p>\n
