Kevin McCarthy Used FTX Funding to Sway GOP Primaries and Take Out MAGA Favorite Madison Cawthorn
Gateway Pundit ^ | 11-19-22 | Jim Hoft

This is really a stunning report.

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy used FTX funding to sway GOP primaries away from Trump supporters.

The National File originally reported on this on Friday. Kevin McCarthy Used #FTX #SBF Stolen to Defeat Conservatives in 2022.

Of course, it is widely know that the now bankrupt FTX US funded millions into Democrat campaigns through Ukraine.

But at least one FTX player funded hundreds of thousands of dollars to Kevin McCarthy to take out MAGA lawmakers.

Most of the rest of the money, $700,000, came from Ryan Salame, an executive at crypto currency exchange FTX U.S., a major donor both to McCarthy’s own operation and to other groups backing McCarthy’s favored candidates. West Realm Shires Services, the corporate name used by FTX U.S., gave $750,000 to CLF in August. Advisers to Salame and FTX declined to comment.

They rotate political money laundering schemes. The reason this one was found out is because it wasn’t necessary after the 2022 election.

They’ve since moved onto another scheme.

They used the FTX funding republicans as justification to divert attention from the massive amount of money they gave to the Dems.

Madison took himself out, if what I have read about him admitting to making up sex orgy stories is correct.

They should be prosecuted for being accessories to fraud.

Oh I am sure “dark money” flowed against MAGA candidates, but Madison Cawthorne’s lies and behavior did him in.

Ridiculous nonsense - typical of TGP and the Hofts. Hawthorne was not a “MAGA favorite” nor a favorite of anyone else - he was damaged goods, making nonsensical comments he could not substantiate...then the leaked videos of his personal behavior did him no favors, either.

by Andrew Smith

in the most recent update, CEP Mr. Salame became the 14th biggest individual donor on the list who gave more than $23.6 million to Republicans, including $11,600 backing the campaign of Rep. Alex Mooney, a Republican from West Virginia.
And now Ryan Salame has been funding Republicans at almost the same pace as Steve Schwarzman, CEO of the Blackstone Group and Peter Thiel, Co-founder of PayPal.

Mr. Salame has also given $2 million to the Congressional Leadership Fund, a Republican super PAC, and about $114,000 combined to the National Republican Congressional Committee, andd the Republican National Committee..

Madison has lots of public speaking skills and much natural talent for politics, but first he needs therapy to control his insecurity and sense of inadequacy. Why else would an adult make such stories up?

Answering my own question; maybe he lied in order to sabotage his own success. Much was happening for Cawthorne very quickly.
Perhaps it was too much too soon.
Some will throw a wrench into their Success-Mobile via drugs, alcohol or bizarre behavior. They dont feel ready or even worthy for all this good fortune.

Horndog politicians, Rep as well as Dem is nothing new, but Cawthorn's apparent exploits were a bit over the top.
