Ever since Madison Cawthorn, a Republican came out with an allegation saying
that other members of his party had invited him to cocaine fueled sex parties.
There has been a don't even want to say slow and steady.
It's been a pretty rapid like dump of opera
research about Madison Cawthorn, massive dumps.
Very clearly an orchestrated effort by the Republican Party to do away with
him because he dared to cross them.
And the latest example is possibly the worst.
Now, I wanna be clear about where we stand here at TYT,
we have absolutely no problem with same sex relationships.
I have no problem with anyone engaging in sexual
activity with someone of the same gender or sex.
We support that we always have.
We always will.
Madison Cawthorn though, has engaged in the same rhetoric that we've heard
from other members of the Republican Party that demonized the trans community.
That demonize educators who want to provide a welcoming loving environment for
members of the LGBT community.
And it is interesting because now the latest leak features a video of
Madison Cawthorn engaged in sexual activity with a male.
Midas Touch tweeted this, video has leaked, which purportedly shows
Madison Cawthorn having sex with what appears to be his male cousin.
Cawthorn thrusts his penis into his cousin's face while naked in bed together,
making loud moaning noises and then they say we will not be posting the clip and
then under that many, many people posted the clip.
>> They didn't, but- >> They didn't, he's completely naked.
I don't know what's going on, I don't know what that's about.
>> I don't know.
I mean, you can speculate I don't care.
>> Yeah, I do care, I do care.
I care for two different reasons.
>> Okay, one.
>> One reason is what we've already talked about on the show multiple times as
these leaks have been coming out, they will come for you if you cross them.
So you know, I find that to be interesting.
>> And they will destroy you.
They don't care.
No holds barred.
That is what the Republican Party is doing to Madison Cawthorn,
which I think that's interesting.
I think that's an interesting angle to the story, I don't particularly care for
Madison Cawthorn.
So- >> I think he's one of the worst.
He is one of the worst but
the fact that he's one of the worst is also something I want to focus on.
Because he's one of the right wingers who goes around moralizing,
he's one of the right wingers who loves to paint democrats as groomers as
people who engage in all sorts of unsavory sexual misconduct.
He puts himself on a pedestal of morality and Republican,
this is what the Republican Party is- >> Am gonna be completely honest.
I don't remember, I'm trying to think of times
that he has demonized the LGBTQ Community.
I assume that he has but I don't, there are a lot of other prominent Republicans
where it's much easier to remember instances where they've done that.
So I'm not even 100% sure maybe look because this is just coming out
right now maybe we can look as we go.
But I don't know that he's one of the republicans that has like
made it like the core of his politics is attacking
the LGBTQ- >> No the core of his politics is all
sorts of conspiracy theories meant to empower in same thoughts by Q and
on conspiracy theorists.
>> He's awful, I agree.
>> So the point I'm trying to make is whether or not he's explicitly or
incessantly attacking the LGBTQ Community.
He engages in the same type of rhetoric that usually is extended to that
community.
The same kinds of conspiracy theories that right wingers think applied to that
community, that's who Madison Cawthorn is.
He's in th same group as like the Marjorie Taylor Greene's and
the Lauren Roberts, he claims all sorts of insane things.
>> Yeah, I know but what I'm saying is generally in this area it seems
most egregious when the rhetoric is in inverse proportion of their own identity.
When they're making a name for
themselves attacking a community that secretly they are a part of and
then only when they finally leave office did they finally come to grips with that.
That seems the most egregious because you're in
a position where theoretically you could be helping this community that is
demonized on a daily basis by members of your party.
And I don't know for sure, I'm sure that we will look into it.
Okay, will you do that?
So beyond that, I don't know exactly what the video shows.
I don't know if he's having sex with a person,
if it's just some sort of weird Freddy wrestling.
I don't know if that person is actually his cousin or not.
He's made claims that the guy from the other video that came
out a week ago is his cousin.
Again like of all of the things to have an issue with Madison Cawthorn and
I don't even from our point of view, I'm literally just saying from their
point of view like he made the claims about the coke parties and they lost it.
So again, it makes you wonder are there really these cocaine fueled sex parties
because why are you freaking out GOP.
>> Let me, I think that there probably are, which is gross.
Like these people are, I mean listen do you booze?
If you've got that stamina go for it I guess but I don't wanna envision it.
I don't wanna think about it.
So I'm looking at Madison Cawthorn twitter page,
avid supporter of lives of TikTok which attacks the LGBTQ Community.
>> Okay, that is true.
That might come with evidence.
>> Yep, yep, the latest lives of TikTok tweet that he retweeted,
this is what pro abortionists think of aborted babies.
These are the people furious at the thought of Roe V Wade being overturned.
And so they take a bunch of like liberals who are upset and
outraged about our rights being taken away from us.
So we don't have agency over our own bodies.
All sorts of typical right wing garbage.
This is who he is, this is who he is.
So look in the past, I know they're like kind hearted,
principled leftists who are like, we can't stoop to their level.
I'm done with that.
I'm done with having these ethics and these morals and
these principles and we don't fight dirty.
We don't kick below the belt.
No, I'm ready to kick below the belt.
I'm ready to do it.
I'm ready to kick below the belt.
I don't care if he's gay, I don't care if he's into gay sex.
I personally don't care about it, but if he's gonna run around the country
referring to educators who want to protect LGBTQ students as groomers.
Or helped to bolster and support a twitter page that gets educators fired for
wanting to support and protect LGBTQ students.
I'm here for what the republicans are doing to him.
I mean, their goons and
they do the same thing and I hope someone leaks garbage on them as well.
But I'm not gonna be like, I am a kind hearted principled,
progressive and I am not gonna stoop to that level.
I'm gonna stoop to that level.
Sorry, you don't like it, don't watch the show,
that's where I'm at, that's where I'm at, me.
Not everyone else, everyone else has their own show, their own opinions.
So John obviously [CROSSTALK].
I'm not, I'm done with being nice- >> To me, there was concerns
one about stoking homophobic to be even more actively homophobic.
The other was, it feels kind of like revenge porn may be spread by the cousin.
I don't know, who else would have had access to it at this point.
So I don't know I was worried about that too.
>> By the way, is it just real cousin?
Like can we address that?
I don't know, I have no idea.
>> [INAUDIBLE] You're having sex with your cousin.
>> What level?
I don't know.
I'm not like, I don't have a problem with gay sex but
maybe don't sleep with your cousin.
I don't, I just think that's weird leave that to the Royals.
>> I have no idea if they're related or not.
Anyway, and I'm fine with playing dirty but
my ethics are my ethics, I'm not gonna [CROSSTALK]
>> I'm putting my ethics aside today.
You're gonna come for the LGBTQ Community, we're gonna come for you.
Okay, what a hypocrite.
Just like all the other right wingers who right wing lawmakers who fought
viciously to prevent gay people from having rights in this country and
then it turns out that they're gay.
Listen, you hate yourself, work on that in therapy,
don't carry that out so other people in the country can suffer.
And you're gonna spread all sorts of crazy conspiracy theories about
the LGBTQ Community, which by the way what does that do John?
That leads to violence towards people, innocent people?
>> I'm not doubting, I'm not denying any of that.
Yeah, but I get what you're saying, I know his privacy in some way was violated and
typically I would feel [CROSSTALK] >> Other person is a private citizen.
>> Yeah, I mean, you don't see the other person's face which is good but
I'm not in an empathetic mood today or probably for the foreseeable future.
What happened with that draft opinion with Scotty's and
overturning Roe V Wade that I'm just being honest with you guys.
That was the day that changed my perspective a lot.
And I don't know if it's a temporary thing, it feels pretty long lasting.
But I'm out for war, I'm done with this, whatever we've been engaging in so
far, it hasn't worked, let's just put it that way.
So it's asymmetrical what right wingers are willing to
do while the left is worried about, I don't know is this a low blow?
Some people are probably to be clear.
My opposition is not that I just think it's a generalized low blow,
it's more specific concerns, and
I'm fine with fighting dirty is a very broad categorization.
I would want to know specifically what tactics specifically.
I will play this video, okay, that's fine.
And going forward will be sitting at this desk and I will see your strategy and
I'm sure I will agree in some cases and not in others.
All right, So there you have it, we'll see what happens, who knows what's going to
come out in the future because these leaks get worse for Cawthorn.
Every time we learn about something new.
