Rep. Pramila Jayapal called for the expulsion of Reps. Eric Swalwell and Tony Gonzales from the House, citing sexual misconduct allegations and emphasizing accountability over partisanship.
Outlets across the political spectrum are reporting on Representative Tony Gonzales's retirement following an admitted affair and a House Ethics Committee probe. While AP News focuses on the bipartisan pressure for his resignation, right-leaning outlets like the Conservative Angle emphasize "equal accountability" by frequently pairing his case with allegations against Democrat Eric Swalwell. The Guardian adds further gravity to the framing, noting the staffer involved reportedly died by suicide.
