Rep. Swalwell facing Manhattan DA investigation for sexual assault

The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office will investigate a sexual assault allegation against Rep. Eric Swalwell — the biggest hurdle yet in the Democratic lawmaker’s gubernatorial bid in California.

A former staffer said she was inebriated after drinking with Mr. Swalwell in 2024, when she woke up to him having sex with her in his New York City hotel room.

“I was pushing him off of me, saying no,” she told CNN. “He didn’t stop.”
