California Rep. Eric Swalwell has said he wants Congress to freeze funding for the Department of Justice.

In an interview with MSNBC, Swalwell said that Congress should assert its control over the public purse strings, particularly if Democrats take back control of Congress next year.

She explained:

Congress has real leverage here. We control subpoenas. We control funding. And if necessary, we should use both.

The Department of Justice is not prioritizing its core responsibilities — protecting the country from terrorism, combating money laundering, or rooting out public corruption.

Instead, its resources are being diverted toward politically motivated pursuits. That is unacceptable.

If withholding or freezing funding is what it takes to force accountability and refocus the DOJ on its proper mission, then that option should absolutely be on the table.

Pressure is sometimes the only language bureaucracies respond to, and this issue will not be resolved until that pressure is applied decisively and consistently.

Swalwell, who was notoriously seduced by a Chinese spy named Fang Fang and has a history of living luxuriously off the donations of his foolish donors, has previously whipped up violence against Republicans.

“When they go low, we’re going to bury them below the Capitol,” he said back in August.

”That’s what we’re going to do, because this is about protecting democracy.”

He recently announced his candidacy for governor of California, touting himself as “the fiercest face of the Democratic resistance.”

“I’m running for Governor because prices are too high and people are scared. California’s next governor has two jobs,” he said in his campaign announcement.

“One, keep the worst president in history out of our homes, out of our streets, and out of our lives.”

“I will be California’s fighter and protector. Our state is under attack.”
