Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is considering leaving Congress and getting into California ‘s crowded governor’s race , sources familiar with his plans told the Washington Examiner on Friday.

Talk of a possible run follows allegations that Swalwell, a seven-term House member and one of President Donald Trump ‘s most vocal critics, committed mortgage and tax fraud. He has denied those claims, calling them baseless and accusing the Trump administration of targeting him. Swalwell was a manager during Trump’s second impeachment trial in 2021. Similar allegations have been leveled against the president’s other perceived enemies.
