Satirical McCarthy Memo Cancelling 'Cocaine Sex Orgy' After Cawthorn's Bombshell Claim Has Twitter LOLing

The Good Liars, a comedy duo known for lampooning American politics with digs at Chick-fil-A, Scientology, Fox News, and even New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie, had Twitter rolling in laughter after posting a satirical memo addressing claims from North Carolina Republican Representative Madison Cawthorn about cocaine-fueled orgies with Washington's elite.

The memo, designed as if it came from the desk of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, claims that the week's "Cocaine Sex Orgy" has been canceled because SOMEBODY"–a reference to Cawthorn–"couldn't keep their mouth shut."


Cawthorn has refused to answer questions about his claims, only saying that he was invited to orgies and witnessed heavy cocaine use among politicians he's claimed to admire. He has accused Democrats of using his own words against him in an effort to fracture the Republican Party.

Cawthorn said that his claims, which he first made during an interview with the Warrior Poet Society, a self-proclaimed group of Republican "freedom fighters," were designed to call out corruption and "have been used by the left and the media to disparage my Republican colleagues and falsely insinuate their involvement in illicit activities."

His remarks raised concerns within the Republican Party and he was called for a 30-minute meeting with Republican leadership, speaking to McCarthy and Minority Whip Steve Scalise. Cawthorn has not responded to questions about what happened during the meeting.

The fake memo quickly went viral and was praised by social media users who'd followed one of the odder stories to come out of Washington in recent days.



Cawthorn's remarks have apparently hurt his relationship with McCarthy, who said Cawthorn has "lost his trust" and that "he needs to take steps to turn his life around, or else there could be consequences."

Cawthorn has continued to assert that his statements were intended to criticize corruption in Washington, calling its existence "an indusputable fact."

Last month, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins claimed that food prices were coming down, even as the Consumer Price Index shows grocery costs rose 0.7% in December. Beef, which Rollins elevated near the top of the food pyramid in the dietary guidelines she recently unveiled, increased 1% over the month and was up 16.4% compared with a year earlier.
