Cmon now, this is Biden's America. Only scenes depicting straight sex require censoring. Everything else must be celebrated, paraded and shown to kindergartners at once, because racism or something.

And, if I have read the article right, it sounds like the other guy is family!

From the article:

The day after the complaint was filed, the Daily Mail and an anti-Trump Twitter account published an undated video that shows Cawthorn joking with a man in a car. The Daily Mail reports the other man is Smith, Cawthorn's scheduler who Wheeler mentions in his ethics complaint. A link to the video was included in the complaint.

"I feel the passion and desire, and would like to see a naked body beneath my hands," Cawthorn says in the video.

The man doing the filming then responds, saying, "Me too. I'd like to see that as well," while turning the camera on himself. The comment causes Cawthorn to burst out laughing, and the other man then films himself putting his hand on the lawmaker's groin.

Wheeler also posted several screenshots of what he claimed were records of Cawthorn and Smith's Venmo payments to one another. The images shared showed messages between the duo dating from June 17, 2018, to January 9, 2019 — before Smith joined Cawthorn's campaign for Congress as an aide in January 2020.

In the screenshots, some of the payments sent from Cawthorn to Smith included labels like "Getting naked for me in Sweden," "The stuff we did in Amsterdam," and "The quickie at the airport."

Some of Smith's payments to Cawthorn were labeled "For loving me daily and nightly" and "Nudes."

"Stephen is his cousin — they're family," said the Cawthorn representative. "The PAC that filed the complaint did no research."
C'mon, man! We are supposed to have higher class, in North Carolina, than Alabama!
