Patrol spokesman Chris Knox told reporters he couldn’t comment on the exact reason Cawthorn’s license had been revoked, saying the information was protected under a federal law, the Driver’s Privacy Protection Act.
He was pulled over for crossing the center line and he has two outstanding speeding tickets.
“He sought admission to the U.S. Naval Academy under a process that enables a local member of Congress to recommend candidates. That led Cawthorn to seek help from then-Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C), a conservative co-founder of the House Freedom Caucus. As it happened, Cawthorn was friends with Meadows’s son, Blake.”
That would be this Mark Meadows?
I trust Madison will now denounce him. He has to, right? /s

Put an R next to the first guy, and he would have been elected in a landslide. But he had a D next to his name. Most of the folks in the NC 11th would have voted for Satan himself before a Democrat.
So , I can proudly (/* full body revulsion */) proclaim Madison fucking Cawthorn is my representative and may be for a long time.
On the one hand, putting the bracelets on a congressman is a story that the cop could talk about FOREVER. On the other hand, I’m guessing that arresting somebody in a wheelchair is a giant pain in the ass.
This guy…apparently met his wife at some sort of island resort. They were only married for 8 months (family values for all, except me and Bobo). He said the driver in the crash left him in the burning vehicle, but actually the guy pulled him out. He didn’t last but a bit in college, much less the military. He’s a head to toe lying SOB.
If he were Black, he’d be dumped out of the chair pretty quickly, and then the beatings would commence (on him AND the chair, to make it unusable). Wheelchairs are only inconvenient if you respect the skin tone of the person sitting in one.
Admittedly, the process becomes easier if you beat them badly enough to make transporting the arrestee the problem of the paramedics. Never underestimate how bored and lazy cops are. But doing that to a congressman would probably be career limiting.
