Dem Rep. Eric Swalwell falsely claims NRA leaders opposed to letting children live
Last week, Rep. Eric Swallwell, D-Calif., issued a tweet in which he falsely claimed that NRA leaders are opposed to letting children live. The obnoxious tweet came as a result of a video in which Dan Bongino took him to task for his anti-gun stance which he revealed in an interview with Tucker Carlson.
“When the @NRA is attacking you, you’re doing something right. Children have a right to live. Their leaders oppose that. Let’s be louder,” he tweeted.

Here’s the interview which prompted Bongino’s response:
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Swalwell says he wants to ban semiautomatic firearms, “buy” them back, essentially confiscating those weapons, and prosecute those who refuse to participate.
Here’s Bongino’s response to that:
"Members of Congress, VVIPs, athletes, entertainers and others get to have men and women with #firearms to protect them, while the same said imbeciles up on Capitol Hill want to take away your right to protect your kids. And @RepSwalwell has no answer for that." —@dbongino #NRA pic.twitter.com/yHigyphVuV

Many wondered if Swalwell would say the same about abortion.
“Children have a right to live.” So glad to see a rare pro-life Democrat!

If you wanted to save children you wouldn’t support abortion. Hypocrite!

Of course, Swalwell wants police to have guns — especially if they’re protecting him.
Scratch a liberal, find a tyrannical hypocrite…
