#SexualMisconduct #MediaCircus . . .

I don't know if #Swalwell is guilty of the sexual misdeeds that he is accused of but, if he is, I believe that he should be punished accordingly in a properly conducted civil and/or criminal proceeding.

What I DO NOT like is the holding of #PressConferences to indict Swalwell w/o the opportunity for him to speak in his own defense which only incites #PublicOpinion for the sole purpose of trying him in the #CourtOfPublicOpinion &, as I witnessed in this morning's press conference, the opportunity for the defense attorneys to drum up more business by soliciting other "victims" to come forward & to serve as their attorneys (for which they will not charge any up front fees but take a BIG contingency fee -- as much as 40% in CA -- in any civil judgment rendered against Swalwell.

I also dislike the notion that only women can be the victims of sexual abuse. It's certainly not as common but men can & have been such victims not only at the hands of women but other men as well.

What people in Iran are saying about the war and their government

In recent days, the focus has been on the fragile U.S.-Iran ceasefire, tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, and Israel’s continued strikes in Lebanon. But less attention has been paid to the people inside Iran, those who have borne the brunt of U.S. and Israeli attacks. For that perspective, Geoff Bennett spoke with Holly Dagres. She spent her teenage years in Tehran and now curates "The Iranist."
