What's he desperate about? Missouri's gonna do what they always do: vote for ballot initiatives that make California look reactionary while electing candidates (like him) who will oppose those initiatives with every fiber of their being.

Josh Hawley is a thug who'd see the capital overrun. He even tried to get Pennsylvania votes thrown out in 2020. Weird given he's a Senator from Missouri. We have our own in PA. Neither wanted to sign on to that objection from the House. Josh Hawley is a thug.

Josh Hawley is a great argument for the legalization of dueling for Congress folk.

"gender-affirming care"

What people think: free estrogen pills in a bowl in the canteen and sex reassignment appointments in the nurse's office

What it actually is: teachers can now call the person who used to be known as "Anthony" by her new name "Emily"

At a church’s anti-abortion conference

Tax exemptions need to be revoked, this is more dark money politics bullshit masquerading as "(muh) religious freedom"

Religious exemption from taxes needs to go away period. If a church wants tax exempt status they should file as a 501c3 or whatever and just follow the same rules as everyone else.
