'Are you OK?' Dem confronts Jim Jordan for sharing fake image of Trump protecting a duck

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) confronted Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) Tuesday for sharing a fake image of Donald Trump cradling a duck.

At a House Judiciary Committee hearing on immigration, Swalwell noted that Jordan had promoted unverified claims that migrants were stealing and eating pets by posting an AI-generated image on X.

Swalwell told witnesses who were the victims of crime that Jordan shared the image "knowing that you're gonna come here to talk about your loved ones who were lost."

"You would expect some seriousness, some gravitas, respect for the people who came here," the lawmaker insisted. "What in the hell is this the chairman tweets? 'Protect our ducks and kittens in Ohio' because he goes down some crazy rabbit hole completely debunked that aliens are eating pets."

"My God, are you okay, Mr. Chairman? Because last year, for a very long time, you tweeted and promoted Kanye West as he was calling for genocide against the Jews," he continued. "And now, when we have victims coming here, you're tweeting this nonsense."

Swalwell said he couldn't understand Jordan's thinking.

"I hope you're okay," he told Jordan. "I don't know if the aliens who are eating your ducks are in the room with us right now but, Mr. Chairman, this is a serious issue. These people have loved ones who have been lost, and you tweeted this, so I am sorry that you came here expecting seriousness."
