It’s been a truly terrible week for Madison Cawthorn and he only has himself to blame.
The anti-LGBTQ congressman from North Carolina, who is currently running for reelection and faces eight primary challengers, has been trending pretty much every day since Tuesday after a leaked video showing him naked, in bed, with his male cousin began circulating online.
The disturbing video was first shared by American Muckrakers PAC, a political group that runs the Fire Madison Cawthorn website. In it, the young Republican appears to be reenacting some sort of rape fantasy by hooting like a gorilla while thrusting his naked groin in his cousin’s face as another male records the encounter encouraging him to “Stick it in his face!”

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.
Cawthorn responded to the leaked recording on Twitter by saying he was just goofing around then claimed to be the victim of blackmail, although he didn’t elaborate on who was blackmailing him, how long it had been going on, or why.
“A new hit against me just dropped,” he tweeted. “Years ago, in this video, I was being crass with a friend, trying to be funny. We were acting foolish, and joking. That’s it. I’m NOT backing down. I told you there would be a drip drip campaign. Blackmail won’t win. We will.”
The leak comes just days before the North Carolina GOP primary election. Early voting is already underway, and, now, so are the face humping jokes…
Good morning, happy Friday to everyone, or as Madison Cawthorn calls it FaceTime Friday.

Madison Cawthorn really is a fuckface.

I dunno. Maybe a lot of Madison Cawthorn's supporters actually secretly wish they could naked face hump their cousins.

I don’t care that Madison Cawthorn is a cross-dresser who enjoys having gay sex with his cousin.
I care that Madison Cawthorn is a violent creepy unqualified lying gaslighting hypocrite traitor insurrectionist dunce who votes to oppress the LGBTQ community and women.

Madison Cawthorn having a sex tape leak of him face banging his male cousin is the least offensive thing I’ve heard about Madison Cawthorn.

The Russian Navy is getting pounded like Madison Cawthorn's cousin's face.

Madison Cawthorn's explanation of that leaked video is that he wasn't having sex with a man, he just thought it was hilarious to force his dick in someone's face.
I've never heard anything more reflective of today's GOP than a defense of "Oh, I'm not gay. I'm just a rapist!"

In today’s episode of “Make America Great Again,” the role of Madison Cawthorn will be played by the US Supreme Court. Madison Cawthorn’s cousin’s face will be played by the American people. #Fresh

Madison Cawthorn is lucky he caught his cousin before the Supreme Court inevitably bans naked same-sex cousin-face humping.

Sqwoah
this is literally nothing. sometimes I hate queerty
white-queer-african
@Sqwoah, have you been living in a cave or under a rock ? Are you even a gay person? This POS is against our existence. He is a nazi loving white supremacist. So before you make a silly comment, check the facts or STFU! I make no apology for taking no prisoners. I say it as it is. I have no time for nancy’s wanting to be sweet. The future of gay folks in the USA are at risk.
yancha
Said Madison Cawthorn from his secret account ?
Winsocki
Don’t read articles all the way through if it is nothing. I don’t or I switch channels if not interested. You are an adult, I am guessing. This was literally funny reading the reactions. You have no sense of humor or irony. Go to FOX news.
MISTERJETT
@Sqwoah….and yet here you are.

It’s not just “nothing,” it’s quite a lucky find for the Leftists! I’ll admit that nothing appears to be misconstrued or fabricated here, which is typically the case with Left-wing reporting. Assuming that Closeted Cawthorn isn’t working undercover to embarass conservatives, of course.
mailliw110
Yet you took the time to read this and comment!
kish
The videos of him acting like he is gay or alluding to such mean nothing. He’s just immature.
He’s an immature, unqualified moron.

I get that Madison is almost the personification of privilege and hate. But this site’s obsession with Madison is so tiresome. There really is no need to post about him literally every other day. Y’all whine about cis, white, straight-presenting, “masculine”, conventionally good-looking male privilege. And yet, you just add on to it, because if he didn’t fit those categories there wouldn’t be nearly as many articles.
Anyways, a lot of homophobic, anti-gay, anti-queer, gay-panic-y people have no issue with homo behaviors. Whether it’s just joking around or not. It’s being “gay presenting”, being unabashed about not being “straight”, being unabashedly effeminate, having unabashed queer relationships, having unabashed gay love and commitments- those are the things that trigger a lot of these people.
jcool
and so you clicked on another post about him and left a long rambling comment.
you know you don’t have to do either, right?
Donston
This was the first article I clicked on about him since the very first one this site wrote. So, I’ve done a pretty good job ignoring. However, the articles are so robust that people speaking out is inevitable.
Now, go be bitchy at someone else.
jcool
be bitchy to whom? benny has disappeared.
but seriously, i apologize. i just get tired of people commenting about stories or topics queerty shouldn’t write about. i mean, it’s a free site. take it or leave it.

You hit the nail on the head with this one. I’d prefer he leave it. He’s the most complaining word-salad-full-of-bugs narcissist out for control /attention I’ve ever read. Nothing here works for him.
I believe he has a deep seated resentment for being black that his therapists couldn’t cure. Seeing too many pretty white boys he thinks he could never land, have pushed him over the edge.
And we pay for it putting up with his gobbledygook writing that adds nothing to the conversation.
GavinakaWirrrn
He’s literally a Nazi. He calls *himself* this. He deserves everything he gets

This guy is the purest form of demon seed. His life is a string of lies. From falsely stating he was left for dead in the 2014 car accident by his friend that dozed off at the wheel hitting a freeway barcade at 65mph then pulling unconscious Cawthorne from the blazing car, to not retracting that statement, ever, to sexual misconduct leveled against him prior to the accident. He’s still in court suing his best friend’s insurance company for 30M (trial in October) tho he’s been paid 3M.
It will be interesting to see if his wicked silver tongue and a pretty face deep 6s this over-the-top cad in future elections.
I see a Netflix movie deal titled Diary of A Psychopath.

It is quite apparent that Madison Cawthorn is Aaron Schock on wheels.

Perfect description! Thank you.

LOL I feel creepy I thought M Cawthorn was really hot before i knew who he actually is
trojanboy
Does he escort?
jcool
not if he wins re-election.
KiraNerysRules
Sure. If you sit in his lap, he can wheel you anywhere.

To much virtue signaling going on here. This silliness is the least of it. Goofing with his friend or cousin or whoever, in a video and using it in a lame attack. He’s NCs problem they voted for him and of all the weird things he says, I have not seen him attack gays. The guy is too young and immature to be a congressperson and so is AOC for that matter. He needs to mature up and maybe try again in his 30s. He is the least of it. MTG and the other loudmouth should be of more concern than this lame dude. Besides, he’s done himself in by making up lies or outing his fellow GOP reps.
Den
Equating him with AOC in ANY fashion indicates you have either not been paying attention, have little in the way of critical skills, or are trolling. He has done nothing other than wage culture war; spouting the far right fear-mongering script. She has demonstrated an understanding of the needs and desires of her constituents, an ability to compromise and a knowledge of the structure and function of government. In short she is intelligent and honest. By contrast he is a liar (his own parents say so), a blowhard, a dullard, and only interested in self promotion.
MTG and Bobert are cut from the same mold as Cawthorn, and none of them serve their constituents in the fashion AOC has.
frapachino
@ Den oh brother, AOC is a dirty lying trolling socialist who cares about no one but her skinny arse self. Luckily she has no power and never will except with her fan girls.
johncp56
I care that Madison Cawthorn is a violent creepy unqualified lying gaslighting hypocrite traitor insurrectionist dunce who votes to oppress the LGBTQ community and women.

How damaged do you have to be to find joy in going after a paraplegic incessantly? What’s that you say? He’s a homophobe? Well that’s his problem, but it’s time to move on already. He has no power over me whatsoever. But I guess some people desperately need an enemy to go after to feel better.
Toofie
So if he’s wheelchair bound nobody should take shots at this homophobe? The reason the story is getting play is the stream of leaks the last couple weeks. Who knows what’s next?
mailliw110
He’s in a wheelchair because of his own stupidity. But lack of brains doesn’t seem to be an issue?
Saps48
Most of his positions are idiotic or reprehensible, but I read somewhere (too lazy to look it up) that he has cosponsored some progressive bills, and that he is pro-marriage equality.

My2CentsWorth
He was humping his cousin’s face? I wonder if this happened before the other video of the cousin reaching toward his penis? Maybe the cousin is very familiar with it.
