A top Democrat in the House of Representatives attacked a 31-year-old GOP colleague on Tuesday during a hearing on a bill that would make it easier for President Donald Trump’s administration to deport immigrants.
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) clashed with Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) over Gill’s bill that would “authorize the expedited removal of aliens who are criminal gang members, members of foreign terrorist organizations, or have been convicted of certain specified crimes,” according to a report from The Daily Beast.
“One day we’ll reconcile the richness of an Ivy League, investment-banker nepo congressman telling us that we need to get rid of the people who pick our food, wash our cars, build our homes, and enrich our communities,” Swalwell said to Gill.
Gill studied economics and history at Dartmouth University. After graduating, he took a job as an investment banker at Nomura Securities. He is also a fierce MAGA loyalist and is married to Danielle D’Souza, the daughter of election denier Dinesh D’Souza.
“Get to know that witness chair,” Swalwell added. “You’re gonna be parked in it for a long time. You’re gonna answer a lot of questions under oath. And I hope what you’re doing is clean. You think you’re invincible. You’re wrong. Accountability is coming. You’ve got about a year.”
