McCarthy reprimands Cawthorn, says he ‘did not tell the truth’ about orgy, cocaine claims

Just The News: House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy says he has reprimanded freshman GOP Rep. Madison Cawthorn for not telling the truth when he made claims earlier this month about receiving orgy invitations from fellow lawmakers and alleged the use of cocaine among his colleagues.

McCarthy, a California Republican, made the statement after meeting Wednesday with Cawthorn, of North Carolina.

He told reporters that Cawthorn’s story changes with each retailing and that there was “no evidence” to support his claims.

The top House Republican also said Cawthorn’s actions were “not becoming of a congressman.”

“There’s a lot of different things that can happen. But I just told him he’s lost my trust. He’s going to have to earn it back. I mean, he’s got a lot of members very upset,” said McCarthy, amid questions about whether the 26-year-old will be formally punished for his allegations, according to Politico.

In a podcast interview last week, Cawthorn described the “sexual perversion that goes on in Washington,” suggesting that he had been invited to an orgy and seen lawmakers take “key bumps” of cocaine.  more here

  1. He didn’t tell the truth because there were other assorted treats as well….heroin, psychedelics, X, assorted pharms, and a cornucopia of underage treats from which to sample their carnal delights. \s

  2. Uh, the Congressional track record is rife with exactly what McCarthy is pearl clutching over. Cawthorn can cite scriptural chapter and verse, including the Commandments, about bearing false witness. Who you gonna believe?

  3. SO, HOW DID WE GET STUCK WITH MCCARTHY AND HOW DO WE RID OURSELVES OF HIM BEFORE THE NOVEMBER RED WAVE, IMPEACHMENT OF BIDEN, RETAKE/REDIRECTION???

  4. He’s going to have to earn it back. I mean, he’s got a lot of members very upset,” said McCarthy,
    Translated to say: He’s got a lot of members scared $hitless that their names are going to be brought up. However….. another side of me says: He’s paralyzed from the waist down, what could he possibly do at an orgie? Never been to one, but I would assume you must be really mobile. So, no names, it didn’t happen – and prove it. Very bold accusation.

  5. So McCarthy knows what all 435 member of the house, and all there staffers are up to, 24/7/365, so he can categorically state that Cawthorne is lying? What a schmuck. I don’t know much about Cawthorne, but I know enough about McCarthy.

  6. Some years ago some Member spoke out against corruption.
    The “leadership” demanded that he “name names” of the corrupt.
    He declined (of course – it would have been a death sentence) so the “leadership” declared that the House was devoid of any stain of corruption.

    Where would corroboration of an invitation to an orgy come from?
    Where would corroboration of cocaine snorting come from?

    ONLY from the participants! DUH! And McCarthy is well aware of that.
    Verbal legerdemain to deflect negative attention from that fetid, corrupt body.

  7. Who invites a wheelchair bound dude to an orgy ? Sorry , have to say it . At some point in the event someone is gonna have to …aw nevermind , no way to say it without sounding mean . Lt. Dan partied down in Mexico though in “Forrest Gump ” . Whaddoanoh …not much . Plus Cawthorn seems pretty straight laced .

  8. Bos’n,
    I understand that Larry Flynt was “invited” to many orgies while in prison.
    (it was always “his turn in the barrel”)
    Don’t know if it’s true or not.

  9. When I was in the military if someone was accused of drug use, they were tested ASAP. Why don’t these Congressmen piss in a cup?
