1. That made we tear up.

[StarryNite]

2. .

[Zoonart]

3. That's what a REAL man looks like... right there.

Loved it when he held this little girl in his arms as he took his oath of office too.

[murielm99]

4. I do not live in his state,

but Swalwell has sent me requests for contributions. He is getting one now.

[soldierant]

49. If my state (and therefore my governor ) were closer to DC, I'll bet

he would have showed up with his daughter.

IIRC he took her to her first Women's March in 2017 when she was 3 and has continued the tradition.

[Cracklin Charlie]

5. Swallwell just keeps getting better.

Fine man...adorable little girl.

[AZ8theist]

33. That's a true father...

Doturd only lusts after his own daughter..
Fucking pedophile pig.

[BKDem]

34. The dotard has two daughters, but only one is his type

I’m going to go throw up now.

[soldierant]

48. I'm not sure of that

There are clips which indicate Tiffany is quite accomplished at getting his hands off her and away from her. That skill level isn't achieved by accident or by chance.

[Baked Potato]

6. I really appreciate Rep Swalwell. Outstanding American.

[lunatica]

7. I remember her when she was yay high to a grasshopper!

He is so involved with being a hands on father that I hope we all get to watch her grow up!

[smirkymonkey]

8. What a good daddy!

And an adorable, lucky little girl!

[11 Bravo]

9. The genetic roll of the dice gave me two fine sons. But that choked me up.

[Upthevibe]

10. demmiblue....

What a profound picture. Thank you for posting.....

[malaise]

11. How lovely

[demmiblue]

12. This too, also (the book she is holding):

[renate]

13. oh, that's lovely!

He's such a good guy. And his little girl is so adorable!

[calimary]

17. Just ordered that for my granddaughter.

[demmiblue]

18. Just putting this here... a good resource for books for girls (as well as other things):

https://www.amightygirl.com/

[KatyaR]

20. I love that website!

It has so much good stuff.

[demmiblue]

22. I haven't been there in a while.

I am perusing the music section right now... so many good artists there.


Lol... I have this finger puppet shown on their site on my fridge (bought it at a Frida Kahlo/Diego Rivera exhibit at the The Detroit Institute of Arts years ago):



The site isn't just for girls, it is for everybody!

[xxqqqzme]

19. I bought that book for my grandchildren

2 girls and 2 boys. It is part of their bookshelf in the living room.

[MontanaMama]

14. What a good man.

I follow Rep Swalwell on Instagram. His posts are lovely and so positive. He seems like a wonderful dad.

[DEbluedude]

15. That photo will live through the ages. n/t

[Bayard]

16. I hope she will remember this when she's older

Swalwell is a great guy, but I wish his daughter was wearing a mask too.

[MustLoveBeagles]

21. Is his daughter under 2 years old?

According to Mayor’s Order 2020-080:

29. She'll be 2 next month

[MustLoveBeagles]

30. Thank you

That may've been why she wasn't wearing one. She's cute as a button.

[BumRushDaShow]

35. You are welcome!

I love her little dress and she looks like she is a trip too. She has an "older" brother and I bet she bosses him around.

[Bayard]

52. Doesn't take into account that even young ones are coming down with Covid

I have read of even 6 month old babies testing positive. Why take the chance?

[MustLoveBeagles]

53. I've actually seen mask for babies but it isn't recommended

If it was my daughter I wouldn't have risked it but I don't know what safety measures were in place.

[Lucinda]

51. I had the same thought too - but they recommend no masks for 2 and under

I probably wouldn't have taken the chance, but the link explains the reasons...

[BigmanPigman]

23. Where's "Cricket"?

[demmiblue]

24. ?

That is Cricket.

[BigmanPigman]

26. Cricket is the nickname he gave his new baby.

Maybe that is her, just a little older. I forget when the baby was born (2018?). I loved that nickname.

[demmiblue]

27. Yeah, that IS the baby... time sure flies, doesn't it?!

Flying too fast (although, in 2020 terms, not fast enough).

[BigmanPigman]

32. I have aged 40 years in the past 4.

[bottomofthehill]

25. Not only a good Member of Congress, a great Dad.

Although his daughter will not remember today, pictures like this will let her know she was there with her father at this transitional time in our history.

I love the book.

[BumRushDaShow]

28. Before I even saw the pic, I was remembering him holding her as a baby

back in January 2019, during the opening of the 116th congress after the Democrats took back the house... and she was being passed around to other members of Congress in his general vicinity.

[MustLoveBeagles]

31. Those are great pictures

[BumRushDaShow]

37. I was watching the gaveling in ceremony on CSPAN that day

and the cameras were continually scanning the room and would pop over to him rocking the baby every once in awhile.

That day many members of Congress brought their children and of course our dear Speaker had many of them up on the dais -



and one her granddaughters stole the show!

[Beaverhausen]

38. oh...Katie Hill is in the background of that bottom photo :-(

I love these pictures.

[BumRushDaShow]

40. It's a shame regarding what happened with her

When it comes to "ethics", we hold people accountable whereas the GOP flagrantly violates all manner of rules.

[demmiblue]

39. So many wonderful pictures... thank you!

[BumRushDaShow]

41. You are most welcome and thank you for the thread!

The results of the blue tsumani and getting that gavel back was a great moment in time and was a poignant bookend to RBG's final moments in time.

[ihas2stinkyfeet]

44. lol. the look on jackie speier's face.

maybe she smelt something.

[BumRushDaShow]

46. Lil' baby load

[Evolve Dammit]

36. As it should be. A great man takes care of his daughters (and sons). Swalwell is a great dad and Rep

[demtenjeep]

42. Little Big Town DAUGHTERS-LISTEN TO THE SONG FITS THE MOMENT

[patphil]

43. This reminded me of John Kennedy Jr. at his father's funeral.

This is one of those moments that will be remembered throughout the nation's history.

An innocent child with her father giving their respects to the greatest supreme court justice of modern times lying in state, while the liar in chief plots to pack the court with another sycophant and steal a second election.

[warmfeet]

45. Still crying.

Thank you Ruth, for your service to humanity.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

47. Precious and Solemn....

She brought her I Look Up To... Ruth Bader Ginsburg book!
(by Anna Membrino)

50. Who is the guy standing behind

Swalwell with his arms folded?
