Of all the awful Republicans in government Hawley must be close to the top of the shit list just because you really strongly get the feeling that he knows better.

 

MTG says evil and insane things because she’s insane, Lindsay Graham does because he’s a craven kiss ass who’s terrified of falling out with the big kids. Trump does it because he’s a pure narcissist powered on by a mix of ADHD and prescription drug side effects… Josh Hawley does it purely because he’s a cynical, manipulative rat bastard who’s calculated it as the best path to power. 
 

It’s heart warming to know that forever being the ‘leader’ who ran away will be an almost insurmountable obstacle in the way of any higher office than the one he has now.

I learned about the existence this video from Heather Cox Richardson.

Some might not be old enough to get the joke, since the music is from a 1981 film.

But wait! There's more...

Quote

Twitter users have mocked the senator with edited versions of the video overlaid with various soundtracks, including songs from popular movies “Chariots of Fire” and “Rocky” and other hits such as “Born to Run” by Bruce Springsteen.

Other accounts posted memes including a picture of a running chicken captioned “I’m going to tell my grandchildren this was Josh Hawley” or joked that “y’all better run to the polls like Josh Hawley ran from the insurrection.”

Two excellent suggestions from this article:

Quote

“The Missouri Dems should host an annual Josh Hawley 5K as a fundraiser,” one user suggested, while Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), a member of the Jan. 6 committee, called Hawley “Fistpump McRunpants.”

also from the article:

 “From now on, if political reporters ask Josh Hawley if he’s planning to run, he’s going to have to ask them to clarify.”

Chris Hayes was a guest on Stephen Colbert's show Friday night:

Colbert: "So what do you think the value was in showing the video of Josh Hawley?"

Hayes: "The value was: That was the committee telling Hawley to go eff himself."

LOL!

Oh please.

The REAL value was in the committee showing the entire world what a little chicken-shit coward he is. 

The Trumpettes won't care, they don't give a shit about reality.

But the rest of the world is laughing at him. 
And he knows it.

Brent would like him to be president, so you are right on the money!

Hi folks,

Well, there it is; the old, 'I don't remember,' gambit:  McCarthy says he does not recall Jan. 6 Cassidy Hutchinson call on Trump going to Capitol | The Hill

What else would one expect of him?

PS)  And, it's only been 50 yrs since WaterGate.

Well, as the article states, her phone would be a good way to find out if he called her or not.

Hmmmm...

Didn't Brent claim that none of the insurrectionists were armed? 

Yet this guy freely admitted that ALL OF THEM were armed.

From the article:
 

Quote

Reffitt never conceded at the trial that he had a loaded weapon but bragged to fellow Three Percenters after the insurrection that “we all had weapons but never fired a single round.”

Now the DOD has some missing text messages from their top staff too. Considering all the consternation around Clinton's emails, I am sure Republicans are going to be very upset about these missing text messages. 

All joking aside, you had an attempted insurrection and all of a sudden communications within Secret Service and DoD disappear. That level of Banana Republic should be extremely concerning for all.

Hi folks,

Another so-called 'tough guy' has his Come to Jesus Moment:  Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, . . . pleaded guilty to seditious conspiracy and is cooperating with the Justice Department’s investigation

Proud Boys member is first to plead guilty to seditious conspiracy | CNN Politics

And, this should make it really interesting:  Bertino could provide crucial testimony for prosecutors in the Proud Boys seditious conspiracy trial
