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."

People Describe The Most Insane Event They've Ever Witnessed

Chaos is, according to the lexicographers at Oxford, a "state of complete disorder and confusion."

Humans find chaos entertaining to watch—hence the popularity of so-called reality TV—but not as much fun to be in the thick of. People may love the moment a "Real Housewife" flips a table, but would be less thrilled if a family member did it during dinner.

Kim Kardashian Mocked For Beige 'Ozempic Santa' In NYC Skims Store—And This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Santa Claus has survived centuries of tradition, but he was no match for beige, shapewear, or Kim Kardashian. A holiday TikTok posted last Monday to the SKIMS account sparked widespread mockery after showing Santa Claus visiting the brand’s New York City flagship store in a look that was unmistakably on-brand.

Gone was the iconic red velvet suit. In its place was a muted beige ensemble that looked less North Pole and more minimalist showroom chic.

Guy Calls Out Bugles For 'Ruining' His Childhood After They Changed Their Iconic Shape

Possibly more than any other generation, Millennials were raised with interactive snacks and candies. From dippable cookies and candies to chips perfectly shaped for scooping and build-your-own pizzas, consumers found the interactive experience to be more important than the food itself.

Bugles are a fan favorite example, because while the chips were tasty and crispy, with a solid variety of flavors to choose from, the real point of them was their iconic shape, like the mouth of a bugle horn. Though we didn't openly talk about it at the time, it was a Millennial pastime to put the Bugles on our fingers like long nails, pretending we were fashionistas and gremlins and vampires.
