Why The Jan. 6 Josh Hawley Video Is About More Than A Senator Running Away - MSNBC

[Rhiannon12866]

Former Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill explains unique the role current Missouri Senator Josh Hawley played on January 6th and why the video played of him fleeing Donald Trump's mob has a deeper subtext than simply humiliating Hawley. Aired on 07/21/2022.

1. Need more photos of other cowardly Congress-critters

all those who opposed certification need account for THEIR actions on Jan 6th

[Rhiannon12866]

2. Well, they said they have a lot more. What sticks with me are those who called the insurrection

"A normal tourist visit," when we know that tourists weren't allowed due to Covid - and then we see footage of these same Republicans blocking the doors against the incoming rioters!

23. And they're in the Kansas City Star, a Missouri paper. I am seriously thinking about...

signing up for a subscription (I lived in the KC area, and now am in STLMO, but also lived in the Ozarks, Joplin, and have family all over the state). Apart from the obtaining of news about old neighborhoods I lived in, I wanted to support this paper that nailed josh hawley and his running away quite well. I was proud of the newspaper doing this in his stomping ground (whenever he comes to MO, I don't think he even has a home in MO anymore/or did, so I wonder how in the world is he a MO resident to run for the Senate? I never did hear the final answer on this issue.

I know that some had wanted Claire McCaskill to run again for her Senate seat, but she's indicated in the past that she was done w/ public service. Maybe she's changed her mind?

She a commentator now, seems happy.

10. Hawley is an opportunistic, sociopathic chickenhawk that doesn't have the courage of his conviction

Missouri, you must be proud with your hard right turn.

You call yourself the show me state. . .well, you were just shown what a jerk Hawley is.

11. What a chickenshit traitor. With apologies for disparaging actual chicken shit.

13. I think that this is...

Just an introduction to what is in store for the enablers come September.

I think that the committee has decided that it doesn't matter if they appear to be partizan anymore, because it's obvious that this goes beyond that, and so they have decided to just go for it until they can't anymore.

I'm hoping we win super majorities in both houses and make some swift changes as soon as they are seated.

[Rhiannon12866]

17. That's what I'm counting on, as well

The Committee has done a stellar job and we know that people are watching. And the fact that it's been Republicans testifying has got to be a wake up call for any Republicans who tune in. And I use the term "Republican" loosely - Republicans throughout history, and I'm including Nixon and Reagan, were nothing like the TFG supporters of today.

[Rhiannon12866]

18. This cowardly oaf is the reason that Claire McCaskill is no longer serving in the Senate today

So it's got to be gratifying for her to see that he's going down.

And yes! I was pretty excited that EarlG included a link to my post! I don't recall that happening before!

[Cha]

19. Yeah, it was funny when Claire said

to Rachel.. "I thought you might follow up with who's the happiest former Senator tonight".. paraphrasing! :

You can do better Missouri..

Congratulations!

Focus!
Please Fight to Save Our Democracy💙 in 2022 & 2024!

[Rhiannon12866]

20. I guess I always knew that in the back of my mind, but thinking about it now

The voters actually chose Josh Hawley over the incumbent Claire McCaskill?? Good Grief! And of course Missouri can do better! Yikes!

22. Hawley cares about Hawley

And nothing about the voters or our beleaguered democracy. When someone shows themself to be an opportunistic weasel, we should believe them.
