Eric Swalwell Billionaire Friend and Dem Donor Stephen Cloobeck Arrested in Los Angeles

Lefty casino and timeshare mogul Stephen Cloobeck, who once called Swalwell his “little brother” and poured over $1 million into his failed campaign for California governor, was arrested in Los Angeles on Tuesday on a felony charge of attempting to prevent or dissuade a witness from testifying.
Last month, Cloobeck dramatically cut all ties and kicked Swalwell out of his luxurious $26 million Beverly Hills mansion.
Cloobeck also demanded every penny of his cash back after explosive allegations that Swalwell sexually assaulted multiple women, including a former staffer who claims the Democrat raped her while she was too drunk to consent.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Swalwell had missed votes in Congress while running for California governor, spending his time hanging out at a multimillion-dollar Beverly Hills mansion owned by one of his top campaign donors.
Swalwell visited the lavish 9,700-square-foot estate on Roxbury Drive on at least 10 different days since September.
Cloobeck’s property features six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a tennis court, double gates, and luxury artwork that Swalwell has used as a backdrop for social media videos and TV interviews.
Congressional records show Swalwell missed House floor votes on at least three days when he posted content from the mansion.
Swalwell missed more votes in 2025 than any other active member of Congress, more than even the late Rep. Raúl Grijalva, who died in March.
Cloobeck was a major backer of Swalwell’s gubernatorial campaign. He contributed $1 million to a supporting committee, provided resources from his own short-lived 2025 governor bid, and previously spent $31,000 on a trip flying Swalwell to Nice, France, according to congressional gift reports.
