Rep. Madison Cawthorn has once again demonstrated that he just might be the least intelligent U.S. congressman on Twitter.
“What’s the biggest lie a politician has ever told?” the 25-year-old asked his 320K followers this week. “Biden said that the $3.5 TRILLION spending bill will cost zero dollars.”

Clearly, Cawthorn’s intention was to start a thread about all the terrible lies President Biden has told the American people. Unfortunately for him, that plan backfired.
As you may recall, Cawthorn was the subject of a Washington Post exposé earlier this year that found he made up several details of his own biography, including that he had been accepted into the U.S. Naval Academy prior to the 2014 car accident that nearly killed him.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
In truth, his application to the U.S. Naval Academy was rejected well before the accident, and he was never “declared dead” or left in a “in a fiery tomb,” like he said. His friend, Bradley Ledford, pulled him from the wreckage very quickly and police declared him “incapacitated.”
Now, here’s how people have been responding to Cawthorn’s “What’s the biggest lie a politician has ever told?” tweet…
You said you were accepted into the Navy, that was a lie.
Does that count?

“I got into the Naval Academy but couldn’t go”?

“I was training for the Paralympics”
“I was accepted to the Naval Academy”
“I wasn’t a sexual abuser in college”The list is endless, Maddie Boy.

(1) That they were accepted to the Naval Academy but a car accident prevented it.
2: That they were left to die and did, in fact die in a fiery crash. The driver and descriptions by policemen at the scene prove this was a lie. Why did you lie about Mark Meadow’s choice and jump— (@solusnan1) October 28, 2021
Something about winning an election they lost by 7M votes

Being that everyone already nailed you on the fact that you completely lied about being accepted to the Naval Academy, when really your pathetic ass was rejected, I’m going to go with the “back the blue” lie you always tell as you shit all over police. You’re a joke & a coward.

You said, on the House floor, that Dr. Fauci was involved in torturing puppies. Your slanderous lie was broadcast world-wide. Your lie has been debunked. Dr. Fauci has every right to sue you for defamation. I hope he does.

Madison’s biggest lie? It’s a tie: “I’m a Christian” and “I’m a patriot.”

So cute, so stupid, so sad!

Stupid – check.
Sad – check. [Don’t forget mendacious, crazy, and brainwashed.]
Cute – um, no. If poop can be considered “cute” before the sheen has worn off, then perhaps. But otherwise, absolutely not.

I blame his parents for raising such a little piece of trash. To have a child that bad they must be real pieces of shit themselves.

If you still want to pretend Biden is a great president then you must believe Jeffrey Dahmer was a great homosexual.

Wow, what a witty rejoinder. That was absolutely stupendous.
Oops, sorry. Autocorrect kicked in. That was supposed to be absolutely stupid.

If this were to be a possibility that you carried out he might surprised you by enjoying it.

How about this one he told on the floor of the House, “I, AB, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

There is an extreme lack of honesty swirling around the GOP… and their supporters don’t seem to care. In fact they seem to be feeding on it… and multiplying.
Some simple facts ( I know facts are not real according to most Republicans… but bear with me)
Being a liar and a hypocrite, and being a GOP politician… is nothing new nor does it seem to be a liability.
Being called out as a liar and a hypocrite in the GOP doesn’t hurt your credibility and popularity within the GOP… in fact it enhances it.
Rep. Madison Cawthorn is just one of the latest crop of GOP opportunists and panderers who play this game… and gain the national spotlight.
This is the modern American Republican… a liar, a cheat, a hypocrite, an opportunist and a panderer.
It sickens me to think that so many Americans are sucked in by this obvious BS.

The sad fact about U. S. people is that there are many of them who are not among the world’s best thinking folks. The leaders of right are pushing to make the education less capable of developing critical thinkers.
The Roman leadership provided entertainment to the population with events in the colosseums. The Republican provide a new form of appealing to supporters by hosting the likes of Trump, Taylor Greene and Cawthorn who entertain with outrageous lies and etc..
