As many as four federal lawmakers could be ousted from their seats on Capitol Hill as soon as Wednesday if threats from some of their most vocal colleagues come to fruition.
California Democrat Eric Swalwell and Texas Republican Tony Gonzales are being targeted following disturbing allegations of sexual misconduct with past subordinates.
Swalwell dropped his bid for California Governor over the weekend after a woman claimed she had sexual encounters with him while he was her boss.
She alleged that the married Swalwell raped her twice when she was too intoxicated to consent in 2019 and 2024. She is one of the four women who have made allegations against the Democrat.
Gonzales abandoned his congressional reelection bid last month amid pressure over an alleged affair with a subordinate who killed herself.
Both men were pressured into their actions by leaders within their own political parties.
Those two are most likely to be on the chopping block. But they could also be axed alongside Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick and Republican Cory Mills, both Florida Representatives.
Cherfilus-McCormick was found guilty by a House Ethics panel last month of numerous violations of House rules and ethics standards, including the alleged theft of $5 million in taxpayer funds.

Mills is facing a slew of issues, including allegedly using campaign funds for private jets, being evicted from his Washington DC apartment, ‘assaulting women, profiting off federal contracts, and inflating [his] military record.’
Florida Republican Anna Paulina Luna has led the charge on the demands to oust the pair, noting on X that she is working to ‘expel Eric Swalwell with Rep Tony Gonzalez,’ adding that ‘Both NEED to go.’
North Carolina Republican Addison McDowell wrote on X that it was ‘past time to get rid of predators in Congress who prey on women – especially their own staff.’
Nancy Mace, a South Carolina Congresswoman currently running for governor, wrote on X Sunday that it is time for some “House cleaning.”‘
She called on Gonzalez, Mills, Swalwell, and Cherfilus-McCormick to ‘resign immediately.’
New York Republican Mike Lawler called for the ousting of three of the four of his aforementioned colleagues, noting on X that, ‘based on the facts and information that have come out, it’s simple: Eric Swalwell, Tony Gonzalez, and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick should all resign from Congress effective immediately. If not, Congress should move to expel all three of them upon our return this week.’

In a sign of further chaos for Mills, his Chief of Staff and General Counsel, Catherine Treadwell, announced her resignation from his office over the weekend, cryptically writing in her resignation email that ‘the horrors persist, but I do not,’ which has since been made public.
Only six members of the House of Representatives have been expelled from the body in US history, including former New York Republican George Santos, the last member to be expelled from the chamber.

Santos was sentenced to nearly seven years in prison for misleading donors and spending campaign money fraudulently. The 2023 vote to expel Santos was 311-114.
Commenting on the news of Swalwell dropping out, Santos noted on X that, ‘innocent people don’t drop out of political races. That’s what guilty people do! “F**k you @ericswalwell and F**k you too @RepTonyGonzales,’ Santos added on X.
Santos had his sentence commuted by Trump after serving around three months in prison.
