Only irresponsible gun owners forget where their loaded or unloaded weapons are. |

I can agree with that. The responsibility is indeed with the owner. |

Yeah, like the Washington Examiner is picking up leftist hits. |

+1 To the genius bar pp, this isn’t a leftist hit, this the GOP trying to get rid of a liability. A sacrificial lamb, if you will. He’s just a little too volatile, and not in the ways that the GOP likes. |

I guess I'm so far in my own bubble I don't really get this - what makes him different from the others of his ilk? Is there something really bad that's about to come out - that's worse than what we already know about him? What's the actual reason that even the Trumpy GOP wants to axe him? |

He keeps blabbing about their orgies. |

I’m not a republican, but I would guess that it’s that he’s just too volatile. He’s got sexual assault charges plus the love for Adolph Hitler (who says it’s a life goal to get to the Eagle’s Nest? That’s a weird thing). He apparently likes to wear ladies’ bras and appears to have allowed photographs to be taken. He has been caught driving on a revoked license not once but twice. He tried twice to board a plane with a gun. He enthusiastically supported the coup. And then he appears to have blown the whistle on the kind of fun Republicans get up to in DC. The GOP is clearly criminal, but they generally don’t brag about their criminality. If he’s starting to brag about it, what else will he tell? Trump has terribly loose lips, but he gets a pass. Madison might alert the media to something that the GOP really wants to stay hidden. |

Insider trading is legal in Congress. |

The difference is that he went after republicans with his insane conspiracies. You are only supposed to implicate democrats in those. |

It more accurate to say that the establishment right is done with Cawthorn. |

Again, this might just be me in a bubble - but those things don't seem so categorically different from a lot of other Republicans? The Jan 6 thing especially - but none of it really. (And the lingerie pics seemed like a big nothingburger to me - seemed more like a bro frat thing than evidence of being sexually interesting in any way. That's how it looked to me anyway.) I guess he seems off on a weird frolic - but how is he different from Gaetz, say? Or is Gaetz one gun on a plane away from being disavowed, too? |

No, none of those are really different than plenty of other republicans, such as Gaetz, MJT, Gosar, Boehbert, Goehmert, etc. But none of them have crossed the line into implicating their fellow republicans in their nutty theories and allegations. Cawthorn crossed that line and the party-controlled media is now turning on him. |

| If this is what the GOP is leaking on Madison, just imagine what they are actually holding back.... |

Oh yes that hit from the “leftist” <checks notes> Washington Examiner. |
