CONGRESSMEN ERIC SWALWELL (D-CA) AND JOE NEGUSE (D-CO)

An online conversation about Rep. Swalwell’s new book, ‘Endgame: Inside the Impeachment of Donald J. Trump,’ hosted by Boulder Book Store. 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 21, boulderbookstore.net.

‘Endgame’ is an inside look at the impeachment of Donald Trump from member of the House Intelligence and Judiciary committees Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA). Swalwell explores what the impeachment means for our nation’s immediate future. Our current pandemic and racial crises, John Bolton’s late revelations, and the Russian bounty scandal underscore the book’s theme: President Trump’s inability to put his personal political interests second to the needs of the American people. The book not only gives readers an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at impeachment, but also how it set the stage for this November’s election and what’s currently at stake.
