HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA In true MAGA clown fashion Cawthorn is not only the first person to be elected to Congress at 25 but he is also the first "youngest representative" to only serve one term. He became popular in the Republican party because he hitched his star to Trump's wagon and went full-on MAGA election conspiracy craziness. He has been an idiot throughout the past 2 years. He's been cited for excessive speeding 3 times in the past year. He has been caught trying to get a gun through TSA security at airports. He called Ukraine's President Zelensky a "thug". GOP leaders were okay with all of that. He finally crossed the line with them when he claimed that he had been invited to "cocaine orgies" by other GOP Congress members. After that announcement suddenly dirt started getting leaked. We first had pictures of Cawthorn dressed in women's lingerie with friends at a club. Then there was a video showing him naked and simulating sex into his cousin's face. (totally normal right?) It also didn't help that he announced he was going to run for re-election in a different/easier district (essentially abandoning his constituents) but then returned to run in the 11th in North Carolina after the maps were re-drawn and that new district became more difficult to win. I am THRILLED to see that Madison Cawthorn will be OUT of Congress next year. Now we have to do Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert.
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — First-term U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn lost his Republican primary race Tuesday to state Sen.

I fail to understand why all this dirty laundry is suddenly so important. No one in politics are squeaky clean and affairs and random acts like this seem to be normal. But it is what it is.

He somehow pissed off the GOP members and they started leaking the dirt they had on him. I'm sure the trickle would have continued if he won the primary. Who knows? It may still continue.
