The Follies and the Files

It’s been a busy week. The latest Democrat accused by Trump aides of “mortgage fraud” is Rep. Eric Swalwell, a California Democrat. On a hyper-partisanship scale of 1-10, Swalwell is a 12, so it’s possible that while filling out his loan papers he got distracted tweeting nasty things and erred on a loan document. But so far all these cases all seem quite thin – and the fact that they are lodged only against people who’ve attacked Trump make these prosecutions seem sketchy, or worse.
