Lawmaker Claims Blackmail Schemes Compromise Votes of Conservative Politicians
-
Rep. Burchett claimed good conservative lawmakers are falling victim to "honeypot" schemes and being blackmailed into voting certain ways.
-
He suggested these schemes involve lawmakers being secretly recorded in compromising situations that are later used as blackmail.

Burchett theorized that the blackmail comes from powerful people who want to protect their investments and don't care about the country.

He argued that this explains why some good conservatives vote for "crazy stuff" that goes against their values.

Burchett also theorized that Sen. Blackburn's effort to release Epstein's flight logs was snubbed because some lawmakers are compromised.
