Poll: Most GOP Voters Still Support Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz After Capitol RiotsBoth senators’ popularity with Republicans in their state dropped after Jan. 6—but they’re still more popular than their states’ other GOP senators. Dumb and dumber Probably because the media is lying about the Capitol riot. They would fair much better to be honest and stop trying to perpetuate the stupid “insurrection” nonsense. The only thing they should all be talking about is how poorly our police performed there. And that’s why we need to not give a fuck about abolishing the filibuster

Rid GOP of traitors 14th Amendment, Sec 3: No Person shall be a Senator, Rep... who shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Sen. Josh Hawley Has a History of Supporting Anti-Government Militia GroupsIn the wake of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, a young Josh Hawley wrote a column for his hometown paper, The Lexington News, defending anti-government militia members. Hawley, who is now a Republican Senator for the state of Missouri, has been facing calls to resign in the wake of the siege on the Capitol, with many believing that his support of Trump’s ungrounded claims of voter fraud in the 2020 election helped enable the violent insurrection. The cropping on the picture makes him look as if he has angel wings. To be clear, if this man is an angel, he is of the fallen variety. They are *not* militia groups. Giving them that name gives them credibility. They are gangs, they are thugs, they are armed insurrectionists, they are all kinds of things but don't gloss over their craziness and polish it up with names like 'militia'.

Josh Hawley is endangering U.S. democracy, warns Missouri's biggest newspaperThe senator has 'twisted truth and logic' as one of a band of Trump supporters who defy reality, according to an editorial in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. What's Newsweek's stance? People in his state demand he be remove now. Get organized. Far too many liberals think that HawleyMO is an idiot. He's dangerous to democracy, but he's not an idiot. He went to Stanford and then Yale Law, where he was president of their chapter of the Federalist Society. If he seems stupid, you've been played by a character actor.
