Swalwell no longer taking contributions on "ActBlue"

[Cattledog]

Eric Swalwell is no longer taking contributions on ActBlue. Which either means he has shut down his campaign on ActBlue or ActBlue has kicked him off.

1. It's done

Put a fork in it.

This either means there was an actual fire, or the GOP was able to do what they did to Franken (though in all fairness to Franken he was accused of far less).

Better move quick. Democrats need to consolidate support because the last thing we need is two republicans at the top which is a real possibility with this jungle primary nonsense. I’m probably getting behind Porter at this point.

8. More accusers have come forward. It's bad.

CNN reported that three additional women have accused Swalwell of making sexual advances and sending explicit photos and messages. https://www.cnn.com/2026/04/10/us/eric-swalwell-sexual-misconduct-allegations-invs

12. It's a real shit show

What a shame, I was probably going to vote for him in the primary.

The dick pics or snapchats alone put him at best in Anthony Weiner territory, which by itself shows terrible judgment and shitty behavior, especially if these happened after he was married.

2. The CNN story about his alleged sexual assualts of women did not help

Exclusive: Four women describe sexual misconduct by Rep. Eric Swalwell, including a former staffer who says he raped her

20. None willing to put their name by their accusations? The texts they provided as evidence weren't actually sexual?

Hmm.........

Also, these aren't like decades-old allegations -- most are alleged to have happened just in the past few years. Surely the statute of limitations has not run out. Why are they talking with CNN and not the cops? If they want to cut off the claims that this is just political ratfucking, they should go to the police immediately.

3. It's time for Plan B...as in Becerra.

Porter disqualified.

Swalwell disqualified.

We're running out of choices here.

[SunSeeker]

9. Yup. All of a sudden I see Becerra ads everywhere. nt

[pnwmom]

10. What is the issue with Porter? nt

[AllBlue]

11. She is not on the ballot nt

[pnwmom]

15. She has a campaign site -- and she's listed in Cal Matters as a candidate.

https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/03/california-governor-candidates/

Here's her campaign website.
https://katieporter.com


Maybe you're thinking about her not making the top 2 in the Senate race?

[LeftInTX]

19. A staffer was filming her and she was rude to the staffer because the staffer was "in her shot" (aka in her way)

I wouldn't call it "disqualified", but not the best look.

When it comes to governor, temperment matters. Not so much for congress and senate.

4. There are already a ton of anti-Swalwell ads on TV in CA

I just Googled to see who is paying for them. It's Tom Steyer. Oh well, another one bites ths dust I guess.

[fujiyamasan]

5. And I can't vote for a billionaire with no elected experience

I haven’t seen the ads (no TV here), but I just haven’t trusted Steyer from the start.

[NBachers]

13. Oh shit, this moves Steyer up in ranking. I like him, but not as governor.

But I’ll vote for him 100 times before I vote for any Republican.

[Buddyzbuddy]

17. Same here.

[multigraincracker]

7. Zero sympathy.

No matter what party he belongs to.

[BidenRocks]

14. Could we at least have a trial?

Alleged is not guilty. They did succeed in killing his campaign.

No Steyer! No more fucking millionaire fat cats!

No gop/maga!

[mahina]

16. It just makes me so sad. He was one of the few who was bold to speak the truth about this monster we are dealing with.

I don’t know what happened or didn’t. I’m just telling you my heart hurts from this.

We are losing a truly great future governor and president, if he is innocent. If he isn’t, I really hope that Katie Porter didn’t do this because that would make so much harder for me to support her as much as I liked her. I’m not in their district anyway, not even in their state. Chews me up to see our good guys self-own like this. BRAH.

[Buddyzbuddy]

18. If he dropped out on his own we can do the autopsy later.

Right now we have to get our sh*t together and get behind the next prospect.

If he's out and if he's guilty?
Let's give it a minute, the story just came out.
