The CEO of a California nonprofit called The Painted Turtle has been caught embezzling $5.2 million over seven years.
The
organization provides life-changing experiences — horseback riding,
swimming, archery, ropes courses, and more — for children with serious
and life-threatening illnesses.
Instead of helping those kids, millions meant for them were allegedly stolen.
This
kind of betrayal is especially heartbreaking because it targets the
most vulnerable families who rely on these programs for joy and normalcy
during incredibly difficult times.
Recordings captured him at a dinner with lobbyists where he allegedly bragged about “orgies” on Capitol Hill, complained that he was bored of his wife, and said he “only wants to fck tens.”
He also reportedly admitted to abusing his power on the House Intelligence Committee by pushing to subpoena Ivanka Trump because she was “hot as fck.”
Swalwell has since been removed from that committee.
The person behind the recordings says they were planning to release them closer to the California governor primary but decided to move forward sooner after Swalwell’s own Democratic colleagues began calling for him to drop out.
In the footage, Swalwell appears visibly uncomfortable and jumps back into the group when questioned.
Many are now demanding his immediate removal from the Homeland Security Committee, citing serious national security concerns over his inability to keep sensitive information or his own behavior under control.
This is a developing story with potentially major political consequences.
He was released after posting a $150,000 unconditional bond and was permitted to keep his passport, allowing him to simply leave.
This latest escape highlights ongoing concerns about Minnesota’s lenient approach to serious financial crimes under Governor Tim Walz.
Taxpayers are once again left holding the bag for millions in stolen funds while the alleged perpetrator avoids justice.
“The
VAERS were screaming at us… Early on, 46% of those deaths were
occurring in one or two days. We’re up to almost 39,000 deaths. 24
percent occurred within a day.”

They knew. And they still won’t acknowledge it.
