Rep. Madison Cawthorn has declared an all-out war on the uni-party political establishment after his defeat in the Republican primary following a series of damaging leaks that in turned followed remarks Cawthorn made about cocaine use and sex parties among Republican elites.
Cawthorn, the youngest and one of the most America First members of Congress, was defeated in the Republican primary for his seat in North Carolina’s 11th Congressional District on Tuesday. Following a podcast appearance in which he alleged that DC insiders engage in orgies and cocaine use, Cawthorn was subject to a gigantic media campaign against him.
A video of Cawthorn nude with friends that was intended to be comedic and photos of him with women’s clothing loosely draped over him while on a cruise were shared widely as part of what some have described as a co-ordinated campaign to punish the North Carolinian.
Fellow North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis backed his primary opponent Chuck Edwards, spending “heavily” on attack ads.
“It’s definitely a hit job that I’m happy to be a party to,” a veteran North Carolina operative involved in the race told far left outlet The Daily Beast. “Most of the GOP universe has come around to align against this guy,” he added. “You’re seeing a full-court, state-based, establishment pushback against him. Get this guy out. Take him out.”
On Thursday, Cawthorn went on the attack against the establishment uni-party who had “turned their guns” on him.
In a post on social media, Cawthorn praised the few people who had come to his defence “when it was not politically profitable,” including Representatives Paul Gosar and Matt Gaetz, Darren Beattie at Revolver News, and Arizona State Representative Wendy Rogers.
When the establishment turned their guns on me, when the Uni-party coalesced to defeat an America First member, very few people had my back.

In contrast to the “honorable men and women” who had defended him, Cawthorn declared that following his defeat, he was now “on a mission to expose those who say and promise one thing, yet legislate and work towards another, self-profiteering, globalist goal.”
“The time for gentile politics as usual has come to an end,” Cawthorn added.
“It’s time for the rise of the new right, it’s time for Dark MAGA to truly take command. We have an enemy to defeat, but we will never be able to defeat them until we defeat the cowardly and weak members of our own party. Their days are numbered. We are coming.”
