Conservative reporter Nick Sortor also confronted a seemingly intoxicated Swalwell about his relationship with Fang Fang, asking whether it posed a bigger national security threat than Elon Musk. Sortor claimed he sat next to Swalwell at a dinner for 90 minutes and that Swalwell was “immediately compromised by a group of…”
