Were Cawthorn’s comments a fess up or a mess up? Rep. Austin Scott says there should be an investigation

Rep. Austin Scott (R-GA) warns of the devastating fallout from the Russian invasion of Ukraine last month, saying that the leading world producer of sunflower seeds or nitrogen comes out of Ukraine, and will result in a world shortage. Saying America needs to “learn from this” and remember that we “cannot allow ourselves to become dependent on countries that do not share our interests or values”. Scott also calls for an “full investigation” into his Congressional colleague Madison Cawthorne's recent comments alleging that fellow Republican members engage in drug usage and orgies while in DC. The Congressman says that the comments that Cawthorne made are “serious accusations” and that Cawthorne now has two options: either name who the member of Congress was that he witnessed “engaging in drug usage” or admit that he has lied and “be disciplined for making a false accusations”.
