.charlesbethea reports on the infractions of Madison Cawthorn and Mark Meadows.
Madison Cawthorn, the twenty-six-year-old Republican congressman from western North Carolina, has been racking up traffic tickets. In March, a cop pulled him over for crossing the centerline, in Cleveland County. As the officer discovered, Cawthorn was driving with a revoked license. Two months earlier, he’d been clocked going eighty-seven in a seventy-miles-per-hour zone, in Polk County. A few months before that, he’d been stopped for doing eighty-nine, in Buncombe County.
“Do your best to make sure you have your driver’s license on you,” the trooper said, as he wrote up a speeding ticket. “Is this something I can just go in and pay?” Cawthorn asked. The trooper told him that it was not quite that simple. Cawthorn faces a court date in early May, followed, a fortnight later, by a Republican primary against seven challengers, who have more than tickets to talk about on the campaign trail.
For instance: Cawthorn was recently busted, for the second time, for carrying a loaded pistol at an airport ; he was implicated in a potential insider-trading scheme involving a meme cryptocurrency ; and, as Politico reported last month, he once wore “women’s lingerie in a public setting.
A few weeks before that, on a YouTube episode of “Warrior Poet Society,” Cawthorn volunteered that colleagues whom he’d “looked up to through my life” had invited him to “a sexual get-together” and done “a key bump” of cocaine in his presence. He was responding to a question about whether Congress is really like the TV show “House of Cards.” He was not specific about the identities of the G.O.P.’s orgy inviters and cokeheads.
