Heh. Josh Hawley's "Insurrection Mug" is made in China.

Oh the humanity!

Conservative Charlie Skyes piled on the mockery of Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO), who is promoting the image of him taken by Francis Chung pumping his fist in the air in solidarity with Jan. 6 attackers. The report of the mug broke Monday, but now it's being discovered that Hawley's insurrection mug isn't even American-made.

Bulwark chief Charlie Skyes put in his morning newsletter a photo from U.S. Senate candidate Rep. Billy Long (R-MO) showing the bottom of the mug.

"When I saw folks in 'Hartzler for Senate' T-Shirts that were made in the Dominican Republic frantically taking Josh Hawley's 'Made in China' stickers off his coffee mugs before Saturday breakfast I knew the jig was up," Long tweeted showing the sticker on the bottom of the mug.

While they shout "made in America" and "make america great again", most of those MAGA hats and products are actually made in China.

I print mugs - not Josh Hawley's mugs (I don't need money THAT fucking bad!) but mugs nonetheless.

The blank mugs I use are all made in China. Hawley probably went to someone in the US to have Chinese mugs ruined by printing his seditionist face on them.
