Senator Josh Hawley spread Trump’s egregious lies about this election being stolen, fanning the flames of violence and inciting a violent insurrection at our Capitol. He even threw up a fist in support of these criminals masquerading as protestors.
Hawley has a history of siding with extremists. In the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing — which left 168 people dead and hundreds more injured — he published a column defending these far-right militia members.
Senator Hawley will always choose domestic terrorists over our democracy. Senate Democrats have already filed an ethics complaint against him but it is not enough. He must be expelled from the Senate.
