In yet another devastating blow to the already-imploding campaign of far-left California Rep. Eric Swalwell, American former pharmaceutical executive and hedge fund manager dubbed “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli has obtained explosive video footage showing the married Democrat congressman getting intimate with a mystery woman who is clearly not his wife.

The video captures Swalwell in a compromising situation that directly contradicts the image the sleazebag Democrat has tried to project while running for California governor.

Shkreli publicly reached out to Swalwell’s campaign on X (formerly Twitter) Saturday, stating he had received the video and was giving them a chance to comment before releasing it to the public.

i need to speak to someone from the @ericswalwell campaign. ive received a video of him being intimate with a woman who does not appear to be his wife and would like a comment before posting.

Twenty minutes later, Shkreli posted the video of Swalwell getting intimate with an alleged sex worker.

He wrote:

“Here is the @ericswalwell video. my source says it was taken in his home and the woman is a sex worker.”

Watch the video HERE.

This latest scandal comes as Swalwell’s once-promising bid for governor is in free-fall following multiple accusations of sexual misconduct, including a bombshell claim from a former staffer who says the congressman raped her twice while she was too intoxicated to consent.

As The Gateway Pundit has been reporting for days, Swalwell’s California governor campaign has completely imploded after the San Francisco Chronicle published the former aide’s devastating allegations.

Additional women have since come forward accusing the Democrat of sexual harassment and misconduct, including sending unsolicited explicit images.

High-profile Democrats like Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi have abandoned ship, withdrawing their endorsements and calling on Swalwell to drop out of the race entirely. Multiple campaign staffers have already resigned in disgust.

In a desperate damage-control video released Friday night, a visibly rattled Swalwell denied the sexual assault claims but admitted to “mistakes in judgement in my past” and issued a groveling apology to his wife for putting her through the public humiliation.

This is the same Eric Swalwell who spent years cozying up to a Chinese Communist Party spy named Fang Fang — a honeypot operative who infiltrated his campaign and, according to multiple reports, had an intimate relationship with the congressman.

The Gateway Pundit has reached out to Swalwell’s campaign for comments.

A machete-wielding man was fatally shot by police on Saturday after he attacked three elder victims at Grand Central.

The unidentified stabber was known to law enforcement and has numerous prior arrests.

Video posted to X showed a bloody scene on the subway platform after police shot the maniac.

The three victims are reportedly in stable condition.

The New York Post reported:

A maniac slashed three elderly people with a machete in an unprovoked attack and was fatally shot by cops at Grand Central Terminal Saturday morning — causing mayhem that sent commuters fleeing the iconic station, police and witnesses said.

An 85-year-old man and a 65-year-old man were slashed in their heads on the 4, 5, 6 subway platform at at 9:50 a.m., police said. A 70-year-old woman was also slashed, but it wasn’t clear where on her body, cops said.

Two NYPD detectives confronted the 44-year-old and told him to drop the machete.

He ignored their commands and was shot three times, according to police sources.

The victims were taken to local hospitals in stable condition, cops said.

The slasher was taken to Bellevue Hospital and was pronounced dead a short time later, cops said.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) who previously declared that subways and trains in New York City were “safe” weighed in on the latest stabbing.

“I’ve been briefed on the horrific incident at Grand Central this morning,” Hochul said.

“Two innocent people were attacked in a senseless act of violence. I’m grateful to our brave officers who acted quickly to stop the suspect,” Hochul said.

“We’re working closely with the NYPD as the investigation unfolds,” she said.

President Donald Trump announced on Saturday morning that the United States is now beginning the process of clearing the Strait of Hormuz.

In a post to Truth Social, Trump described the operation as a favor to countries around the world that lack the courage or will to do it themselves.

In a lengthy post, the president slammed claims by the “Fake News Media” that Iran is winning the war, declaring instead that the Islamic Republic is “LOSING, and LOSING BIG!”

Trump began, “The Fake News Media has lost total credibility, not that they had any to begin with. Because of their massive Trump Derangement Syndrome (Sometimes referred to as TDS!), they love saying that Iran is ‘winning’ when, in fact, everyone knows that they are LOSING, and LOSING BIG!”

“Their Navy is gone, their Air Force is gone, their Anti Aircraft apparatus is nonexistent, Radar is dead, their Missile and Drone Factories have been largely obliterated along with the Missiles and Drones themselves and, most importantly, their longtime ‘Leaders’ are no longer with us, praise be to Allah!” Trump continued.

“The only thing they have going is the threat that a ship may ‘bunk’ into one of their sea mines which, by the way, all 28 of their mine dropper boats are also lying at the bottom of the sea,” Trump wrote. “We’re now starting the process of clearing out the Strait of Hormuz as a favor to Countries all over the World, including China, Japan, South Korea, France, Germany, and many others. Incredibly, they don’t have the Courage or Will to do this work themselves.”

Trump explained that while the world benefits from a reopened and secure strait, empty oil-carrying ships from multiple nations are now steaming toward U.S. ports to load up on American oil rather than relying on Middle Eastern supplies.

“Very interestingly, however, empty Oil carrying ships from many Nations are all heading to the United States of America to LOAD UP with Oil. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP,” the president concluded.

Several US Navy ships were seen crossing the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday.

The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most strategically important chokepoints in the world.

It serves as the primary route for oil tankers exiting the Persian Gulf, with roughly 20 percent of global oil trade normally passing through it, approximately 20 million barrels per day before the conflict.

Iranian mining and threats had severely disrupted traffic, creating a backlog that threatened global energy prices and supply chains.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has delivered a powerful blow against radical Islamists and their enablers by terminating the lawful permanent resident status of family members tied to one of the most despicable figures from the 1979 Iranian Hostage Crisis.

Masoumeh Ebtekar, better known as the hate-filled “Screaming Mary,” was the shrill spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and held 52 innocent American hostages for a brutal 444 days.

Those brave Americans endured beatings, starvation, mock executions, and endless psychological torture while this regime propagandist screamed anti-American venom to the world.

Yet under the disastrous Obama-Biden regime, her son Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi, and their son were handed visas in 2014 and then awarded the “extraordinary privilege” of lawful permanent resident status in June 2016 through the ridiculous Diversity Immigrant Visa Program, the same lottery scam that has flooded America with unvetted risks from hostile nations.

While American families struggled under Obama’s failed policies, reports show Hashemi was living large in upscale Agoura Hills, California, teaching psychology and organizational leadership at a private college, all while his family remained deeply tied to the anti-American Iranian regime.

No more.

This week, Secretary Rubio terminated their green cards. Today, Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi, and their son are in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) pending their removal from our country.

Here is Secretary Rubio’s powerful statement in full:

Masoumeh Ebtekar – also known as “Screaming Mary” – was the spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days – subjecting them to beatings, starvation, and mock executions.

In 2014, the Obama Administration granted visas to her son and his family to enter the United States. In June 2016, the Obama Administration gave them lawful permanent resident status via the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program.

This week, I terminated their lawful permanent resident status and today, Seyed Eissa Hashemi, Maryam Tahmasebi, and their son are now in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement pending their removal from our country.

Her family should never have been allowed to benefit from the extraordinary privilege of living in our country.

America can never become home for anti-American terrorists or their families – and under the Trump Administration, it never will.
