‘BUST THEM OUT’

The far-right congressman said he was “actively working” on calling for MAGA supporters to descend on D.C. again, suggesting another Jan. 6-type rally.

MAGA-boosting Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) seemingly proposed another “Stop the Steal”-type rally in D.C. this week while sympathizing with the “political hostages” that were arrested and charged for participating in the violent Jan. 6 Capitol riots.

.................................
.............................


Speaking at a North Carolina GOP event on Sunday evening, Cawthorn—a featured speaker at the rally that preceded the Jan. 6 violence—was asked by one attendee what he was doing to free the hundreds of rioters currently facing criminal charges.

“Political hostages,” Cawthorn shouted to applause in a viral video posted to Twitter by a Democratic congressional staffer. “So this is something that we are trying to figure everything out about.”

After saying that his office is “seeking answers” from federal investigators, the Republican lawmaker claimed they “don’t know where all the political prisoners are” before pondering about how to release them.

“And so, if we were actually to be able to go and try to bust them out—,” he exclaimed before quickly pivoting. “Let me tell you, the reason why they’re taking these political prisoners is they’re trying to make an example. Because they don’t want to see the mass protests going on in Washington.”.................................

Holy shit. Madison Cawthorn yesterday:

"If our election systems continue to be rigged, then it's going to lead to one place and that's bloodshed... There's nothing I would dread doing more than having to pick up arms against a fellow American."

ARREST THIS FUCKING TRAITOR.
Now.

During a long riff at 1:11:10 about covid Cawthorn says wearing masks is "anti-science" because if you eat at a Mexican restaurant you can smell the food through the mask which proves that particles pass through them so they don't work

At 1:04:00 he gets a question about vaccine passports and calls for boycotts of businesses that require vaccines. He shares a quote he finds inspiring: "When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes your duty." He then encourages onlookers to engage in "a little civil disobedience"

1. these people are dangerous

its time to wake up and realize they are pushing for a civil war.
they must be stopped.

[Kid Berwyn]

2. His hero once was a "political hostage."

Used the time to write a book and redraw his plan.

[msongs]

3. too bad his god stuck him in that weelchair. nt

[Ford_Prefect]

15. According to several accounts it was Madison himself caused the accident.

He's an obvious manipulator and deserves to spend time contemplating life in a chair from behind federal bars. He has monied friends in NC GOP circles and has been selected and protected for awhile. He's a dangerous personality to have on the political stage anywhere and a documented neo-nazi.

IMO a close look at his finances would show serious fraud.

[Jon King]

4. He learned how to get these dimwits to send him cash at a young age.

What a prodigy! He learned the trick to get these rubes to send him lots of cash and how he can stay in his seat for a long time. Just be the loudest person who tells them who they should hate.

[monkeyman1]

5. in the pen, wonder who will wheel this goofy fucker around ?

[Comfortably_Numb]

6. Fuck this pea brain poser.

The bloodshed would be ol Madison’s if war breaks out because people punching trees won’t win it. Fuck him.

[sakabatou]

7. Is he really trying to make another insurrection incident?!

[KS Toronado]

8. Why is Crawthorn calling Antifa members "political hostages"?

FQX nonsense has been telling their viewers for months it was Biden Antifa supporters who stormed the Capitol.
Now they'll be telling their viewers the need to bust them out of jail because they're political hostages. And the
big question is, will any of FQX's viewers see the hypocrisy? We're against them, but now we're for them.

[jmowreader]

9. 18 USC 2383

It is a felony to incite insurrection.

Lawmakers are not immune to prosecution for the felonies they commit while in office. Ask Larry Craig.

If anyone attempts to bust out the insurrectionists we already have locked up on the urging of this infant, push his ass right into the ADA cell at the jail he went to.

[blm]

10. Spokesmodel for Uneducated NeoNazi Youth.

And his squeaky voice is so hard on the ears.

[yaesu]

11. I wonder if he was always this wackadoodle? I know my nephew, who survived several Afghan tours

came out as a wackadoodle tRumpster also.

[peppertree]

12. MadNazi Cawthorn

The more upset he gets, the better you know things are going for the country.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

13. He mistakes gases for particles, so thinks masks don't work. Particles are absolutely enormous

... compared to gases.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

27. Most masks you see aren't designed to protect the wearer as they inhale.

In Poland, they have a sign which says, "I wear my mask to protect you. You wear your mask to protect me." My primary care doctor says the same thing.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

14. His last comment, he thinks corps make the law. He's half right because he takes their money

Like many RepubliQons, he is for corporate freedom and personhood until it touches him. Then he reveals he is too stupid to know he is a hypocrite.

I wish all traitors were as stupid as Madison Cawthorn, Empty Greene, and the Boebert woman.

[ouija]

16. I suggest that this traitor

Should stand up and do something about it then.

[Vinca]

17. This character is ginning up violence and he should be held accountable.

Waiting for the next unnecessary mass slaughter is too late. I don't care if he's in Congress, I don't care if he's in a wheelchair, I don't care if he's nuts. Charge him with inciting violence.

[Wuddles440]

19. Yes!

And aggressively prosecuting the seditionist scum should be (and should have been) the number one priority of the DOJ - absolutely nothing else matters at this time. Unfortunately that has not been the case and with each passing day the insurrectionists and their enablers become more emboldened. If they don't achieve their fascists' objectives through voter suppression and intimidation, they will once again resort to force.

[SKKY]

18. Wouldn't want Madison Cawthorn "rolling" up on you packing heat...

...shit might get real. He might roll over your big toe, and we all know how hard it is to walk with a broken big toe.

[obamanut2012]

20. Sexual abuser and assaulter said what?

[Fritz67]

21. Yeah, remember this...

...the next time some Republican, especially Cawthorn himself, tries to tell us they're the "law and order" and "tough on crime" party. Sheesh.

[ChazInAz]

22. I have a truly inappropriate and uncharitable question.

Should I start referring to him as Dr. Strangelove, or would that be beyond the pale?

24. Investigate and charge these assholes. When their supporters come to "break them out",

open fire.

Time to show these Nazis how it works.

[clementine613]

25. He was with them on 1/6, he should be locked up with them.

[ancianita]

26. Jan 6 should look into, "We're actively working on that" in answer to the question

"When do you next want us in DC?"
