cawthorn screwed up big time

he pissed off enough of the gop that they are out to destroy him not just run him out of congress.

When they needed it , they had no problems unearthing all sorts of scandals that Cawthorn was implicated in. From sexual escapades to crypto fraud, staffing issues, etc..

My working hypothesis is that most if not all the deplorables ( boebert, gossar, Gaetz, etc...) have similar scandals in their background. It's practically a requirement to be a magat .

I hope these deplorables get the same treatment.

" (And I wish someone would try this on the progressive versions of Cawthorn and Boebert: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar.) "

No really. He's an asshole.

From trumph on down, there is most likely a file on each and every one of them, that is pulled out whenever they even think about stepping out of line. I'll bet that they have to have such a file to be in any type of leadership position. How else would they control them?

That would explain how they turn on a dime, from being reasonable human beings ("it was a coup", "DT is not the right man for the job&quot , to monsters that refuse to see the terror and malfeasance that is right in front of them.

Anyone got any other possible explanations????

The GOP could always rely on J. Edgar Hoover to keep files on everyone until the day he died, so someone must have picked up his mantle and carried on that fine tradition.

I wonder who is the gate keeper for the GOP's blackmail and extortion business now? 🤔

to do was rage against the Democratic establishment, not the republican one.

What an idiot. He'd still be in office if he had bad-mouthed people in his own party.

The government is finally focusing on crypto influencer scams, just as Cawthorn pumps and dumps LGB token. He is just too stupid to save.

of pics and tapes of all of DC. Pics of some of them touching kids. I've long suspected that Washington DC has an underground world of perversion and depravity that's been around for 200 years. You just have to know what doors to knock on and the secret handshake. They probably pass each other going in and out.
