Eric Swalwell, a member of the U.S. Congress representing California's 14th District, posted several tweets on April 1, 2025. Having served in Congress since 2013 after replacing Pete Stark, Swalwell is known for his active engagement on social media. His tweets on this date express strong opinions on military and political subjects.

In the first tweet, Swalwell criticized certain unspecified actions with, "These morons are going to get our troops killed." This tweet suggests his concern over decisions affecting military personnel.

Later, on the same day, he tweeted a critique of an instance involving Speaker Pelosi. He stated, "This reminds me of that time Speaker Pelosi had to close Congress because she didn’t know how to count votes." This remark references a particular event within the legislative process.

Following that tweet, Swalwell addressed his previous statement with, "I’m being told that never happened." indicating a retraction or correction of his earlier claim about Speaker Pelosi.
