Representative Madison Cawthorn, a North Carolina Republican, said in a recent interview that leaders that he "looked up to" in Washington, DC, have invited him to an "orgy" and did cocaine in front him.
Cawthorn, 26, is a freshman congressman and is currently the youngest member of Congress. He has drawn criticism and backlash from Democrats and Republicans alike for some of his controversial views during his tenure serving the people of North Carolina. The staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump made the remarks about the "orgy" and drug use during an interview-first broadcast on Thursday with Warrior Poet Society hosted by John Lovell.
In the interview, Lovell asked the congressman about the popular Netflix series House of Cards, which had six seasons from 2013 to 2018 and starred actors Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright. The fictitious show featured the story of a corrupt politician and his wife as they blackmailed and clawed their way to greater and greater power in the nation's Capitol. Lovell asked him if the show is an accurate representation of how DC operates.
"I heard a former president that we had in the '90s was asked a question about this. And he gave an answer that I thought was so true. He said that the only thing not accurate in that show—that you could never get a piece of legislation about education passed that quickly," Cawthorn responded.

The GOP congressman went on to share anecdotes about interactions he has had since coming to the Capitol.
"The sexual perversion that goes on in Washington, I mean, being kind of a young guy in Washington, average age is probably 60 or 70," Cawthorn said, "I look at a lot of these people, a lot of them that I've looked up to through my life—I've always paid attention to politics—then all of a sudden you get invited to, 'Oh hey we're going to have a sexual get together at one of our homes, you should come.'"
Cawthorn then put on a shocked expression, saying his response was, "'What did you just ask me to come to?' And then you realize they're asking you to come to an orgy." The Republican lawmaker also said that "some of the people who are leading on the movement to try and remove addiction in our county" have done "a key bump of cocaine" right in front of him.
The North Carolina representative did not provide names or clarify whether these interactions were with elected members of Congress or other officials and aides working in DC. Newsweek reached out to Cawthorn's press secretary for further details, but did not immediately receive a response.
Cawthorn's reference to a former president discussing House of Cards appears to be about a 2015 interview Spacey did with Gotham Magazine. The actor said at the time that he and former President Bill Clinton, a Democrat, are friends and played poker together. Spacey said that Clinton told him the show was largely accurate and that he enjoyed it.
"Kevin, 99 percent of what you do on that show is real. The 1 percent you get wrong is you could never get an education bill passed that fast," Clinton told Spacey, according to the actor's comments to the magazine.
Cawthorn recently drew significant backlash for remarks he made about Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky and the Ukrainian government. At a North Carolina event earlier this month, he called Zelensky a "thug" and his government "incredibly evil" shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of the country.
Representative Liz Cheney, a Wyoming Republican, dubbed Cawthorn a member of the "Putin wing of the GOP." Congressman Adam Kinzinger, an Illinois Republican, slammed him for "echoing Putin propaganda."
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, a California Republican, said publicly that Cawthorn was "wrong."
"Madison is wrong," he said on March 18. "If there's any thug in this world it's [Vladimir] Putin." He also told reporters that he has spoken to the GOP congressman about the controversial remarks.
After video of Cawthorn's Ukraine remarks circulated, he posted to Twitter and strongly criticized Putin and Russia's invasion. His press secretary Luke Ball also told Newsweek at the time that the congressman "supports Ukraine and the Ukrainian president's efforts to defend their country against Russian aggression, but does not want America drawn into another conflict through emotional manipulation."

I wouldnt believe this guy if he told me the sun sets in the west.
Even if his tongue were notarized, I still would not believe a word he says.
All the doubt was confirmed as was revealed today...
Anyone that would invite Hawthorn to their house certainly wouldn’t be a Democrat. So I guess Republicans are sleazy coke head whores, according to him. So much for morality, law and order, God, etc. etc.
uh oh, looks like he's off the invite list for any more of kim and don jr's parties...
Jr always looks coked up.
and I doubt it would be kim's first orgy...
He has to look up to just about everyone, it seems. Why invite someone who is impotent to an orgy? This story is so made up it's laughable.
He can lick and he, obviously, sucks.
Cawthorn is Hell on wheels.
Madison Hellen Wheels is hell in heels...
You're cruel, al Jizzerror. "Damaging." And yes, strange things do happen in strange places. You have heard the one (I'm pretty sure) about: Politics making strange-bedfellows? For real! (I have also read that conservative conventions are one a year "freak-outs" zones. Of course, liberals don't deny the same about themselves as appropriate.)
Thank you for noticing.
Many find my sense of humor to be "cruel" butt "damaging"?
WTF did my comment "damage"?
HA!
(I could tell you, but it's too 'sensitive' for me right now. (Chuckles.))
he's pissed because the table legs were put up on blocks and they placed the coke mirror in the center.
If you want us to believe you give us some names. Proof!
He probably wont be in Congress after November so maybe he's starting a career writing fiction.
I'm thinking that he should be interrogated by the police for possible criminal activity. If for nothing else as a possible witness to illegal activity.
I think he's got the makings of a porn movie
"Debbie Does Congress"
I would say Cawthorn will end up managing a Burger King but he's not going to do any honest work like that. Something in right wing media as a correspondent for the Daily Caller or Breitbart is more likely.
I would wonder how he'll get there with 3 (?) driving violations and possibly no license.
OMG He might have to use public transportation!
Speaking of "show-stoppers": Where is Matt Gaetz's spotlight these days?
Starring Lauren Boebert?
Starring Lauren Boebert?
Better than Marge.
Aw c'mon...you know you want a close-up of those toes
Maybe she broke off a toe in Boebert.
"Scandalous" Cawthorn or "Scandalous" Washington Society?
The real perversion is that a loon like Cawthorne was ever elected to office in the 1st place!
And I very much think the same about MTG and her BFF Beobert! All three are losers with a capital L.

House Republicans Enraged By Cawthorn’s ‘Orgy’ And 'Cocaine Bump' Claims
Emily Singer 3-4 minutes 3/29/2022
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy will talk with North Carolina Republican Rep. Madison Cawthorn about his recent claim that lawmakers in Washington have orgies, according to Politico and CNN .
Cawthorn's fellow Republicans are angry about remarks he made during a "Warrior Poet Society" podcast on March 24, when he was asked how close the television series "House of Cards" came to the reality of Washington, D.C. Cawthorn accused lawmakers of having orgies and doing cocaine:
Politico reported that House Republicans have demanded Cawthorn identify any people who were involved in the activities he alleged to prove that the claims are true.
Cawthorn does have a documented history of lying about everything from his own personal origin story to voter fraud and rigged elections.
According to an investigative report published by the Washington Post on February 27, 2021, Cawthorn lied about the accident that left him paralyzed; about the fact that he was rejected by the U.S. Naval Academy; and about his work history .
Ultimately, it's unclear whether McCarthy will punish Cawthorn for the comments that have angered the Republican conference.
McCarthy never punished Cawthorn after he was arrested earlier in March for driving with a revoked license. He didn't punish him last August after Cawthorn warned of "bloodshed" over "rigged" elections.
However, McCarthy's talk with Cawthorn looks to be coming faster than his conversations with other GOP lawmakers who have made offensive comments.
It took him a week to speak to Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), who had tweeted a violent video featuring Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Gosar eventually was censured and removed from his committee assignments over the video.
McCarthy also slow-walked a condemnation of Gosar and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for attending a conference held by a white supremacist. McCarthy said he had conversations with them, but never publicly condemned them while cameras were rolling.
Neither one was punished, however, and McCarthy said that he may give both Gosar and Greene, who was removed from her own committees over offensive remarks, their committee assignments back if Republicans win control of the House in the midterm elections.

He should never have been elected, he was a proven liar, but that has become the Republican brand.
