GOP Rep. Madison Cawthorn Cleans Gun During Veterans' Affairs Hearing
Source: Daily Beast
Cawthorn, the youngest current member of Congress, fiddled with his black pistol while one witness explained how university medical researchers could help the government examine how burn pits are harming military service members.
It was immature. Hes a child. He lacks common sense. I think the congressman was overcompensating for something that he lacks and feeling inadequate among the heroes on that call, said John Feal, a 9/11 first responder who was at the virtual meeting.
Feal was one of at least two people at the Veterans Affairs meeting who noticed what Cawthorn was doing. Both were infuriated. But the general public couldnt see it, because the two-hour virtual hearing was held over Zoomwhich meant that those tuning in could only see the person speaking.

All joking aside, Madison "MadCow" Cawthorn (R-Roller Nazi) is like a teacher work day: No class.

(15,083 posts)not in person. So he was either at home or in his office. Not in a room with others in the meeting.
He's still an ass and yes, it's wrong on so many levels.

Cawthorn obviously cares more about putting on a fucking show rather than dealing intelligently with matters important to veterans.
As a veteran, I am disgusted by Cawthorn and every idiot in North Carolina who voted for him.

Didn't Cawthorn made a big deal out of visiting Hitler's mansion in Berchtesgaden like it was some kind of holy shrine?
I would be willing to bet this was his homage to his hero, a dog whistle meant to be heard by his neo-Nazi fanboys.
