Congressman Eric Swalwell released a minute long video defending himself hours after being accused of rape.
In the video, Eric stares into the camera saying, "I thought it was important you see and hear from me directly. These allegations of sexual assault are flat false" ... adding, "They did not happen. They have never happened."
He noted the accusations come on the eve of an election where he is the front runner. Eric added that he is not “perfect or a saint” and admits to making "mistake in judgement" in his past ... adding "Those mistake are between me and my wife. And to her, I apologize deeply for putting her in this position.”

ICYMI ... a pregnant Nadia joined Michael on 'Love and Hip Hop' for its 7th season -- as did his then-fiancée, Rada Darling. Michael ended up fathering a child with both women in his life just months apart ... but he swore up and down Nadia was just a side piece. She has a very different story.
Nadia says she was "blindsided and offended" by Michael’s comments, insisting their relationship wasn’t casual. She claims they were friends for years before things turned romantic -- only after he pursued her. She says he agreed to have a baby with her, too ... and even sold her a dream of buying a house and starting a business togerher.
Nadia believed Rada knew about them the entire time and thought Michael wanted a setup like Nick Cannon’s -- with several baby mamas and children. Bottom line -- she was disheartened by how she was treated and portrayed on "Love & Hip Hop"
