'Your entire resume skippy': Madison Cawthorn mocked after asking 'What’s the biggest lie a politician’s ever told?'
U.S. Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) is getting blasted after attacking President Joe Biden.
"What's the biggest lie a politician has ever told?" Cawthorn asked. "Biden said that the $3.5 TRILLION spending bill will cost zero dollars."
It did not go well for him, with many pointing to his own well-documented and debunked lies.
Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA) was among those reminding Americans that Cawthorn lied when he claimed his tragic auto accident "derailed" his naval career.
Lying about getting into the Naval Academy. Next.https://twitter.com/cawthornfornc/status/1453473327951933445\u00a0\u2026— Rep. Eric Swalwell (@Rep. Eric Swalwell) 1635387175
An investigation by his hometown newspaper, citing a 2017 sworn deposition reveals "Cawthorn admitted his application to the academy had already been rejected before the crash."
But on his campaign website Cawthorn claimed, "Madison's plans were derailed … after he nearly died in a tragic automobile accident that left him partially paralyzed and in a wheelchair."
Others slammed Cawthorn and some shared more of Cawthorn's lies and allegations of sexual misconduct against him:

This stolen valor stooge lied about getting into the Naval Academy yet he\u2019s still dumb enough to ask this question. What a disgrace he is to everyone who served.https://twitter.com/cawthornfornc/status/1453473327951933445\u00a0\u2026— Bleeding Heart Liberal Marine (@Bleeding Heart Liberal Marine) 1635419753
When you lied about being accepted to the naval academy. When you lied about the car wreck you were in. When you went to a Christian college for 1 semester and 150 women signed a petition against you for harassment.https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/02/27/making-madison-cawthorn-how-falsehoods-helped-propel-career-new-pro-trump-star-far-right/\u00a0\u2026— marie elizabeth (@marie elizabeth) 1635397436
Actually, I think lying about training for the Paralympics might edge the Naval Academy lie.— Michael Yanochko (@Michael Yanochko) 1635390002
Please tell me that the Naval Academy Honor Roll ManBoy whose entire LinkedIn profile is made up didn\u2019t just post this tweet.https://twitter.com/cawthornfornc/status/1453473327951933445\u00a0\u2026— PoliticOhMyGawd (@PoliticOhMyGawd) 1635382937

Remember when you said you were accepted into the Naval Academy and then said your friend left you to die in a car accident? Oh, and then said the numerous women who accused you of sexual misconduct were wrong\u2026 how about all that?— Dan Conway (@Dan Conway) 1635386644
One of the biggest lies I've heard was you lying about getting accepted to the Naval Academy. As a veteran myself, that's a real crappy thing to do.— Katie Porters Whiteboard (@Katie Porters Whiteboard) 1635391047
