Sen. Josh Hawley: OUTRAGEOUS to suggest complicity in the Capitol attacks

Sen. Josh Hawley said that it was "outrageous and an utter lie" to suggest that he was complicit in the attacks on the US Capitol.

There were literally some Capitol police who were blatantly complicit (not all, but rather a small fraction of the many many who showed up to protect the Capitol that day). Like literally caught on video helping rioters get past barricades. It's part of the reason that the Capitol police at large were overwhelmed: the barricades were expected to last quite a while longer, but barricades are ineffective when a small group on the inside just let's people through.

The fact that they asked him that question is bizarre.

Just show the cameras from outside the building

[episdosas]

Yes. Most of the repub party was complicit. They stained their own honor by not keeping the capitol secure while under direct threats. They knew what was going to happen.

Trust fund babies should not legislate for "common people". Plus he gives off slime energy. Him, Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham and many others are slimey

[denverbritto]

You can criticise him for the lie as much as you like but blaming him for the violence of others is ridiculous. Many politicians have told lies that can be said to havr roused others to violence including Harris and Warren. You wanna hold them to the same standards?

You backed the confederacy and lost. Man up. We all watched you. We have THE INTERNET. LOL

Way to go! Set them straight Sen. Hawley!
