Hawley’s latest contempt for American governance is not a huge surprise given that he tried to help Donald Trump overturn the presidential election even after the MAGA sedition riot.
Cameras are not allowed to show the gallery but NBC News correspondent Garrett Haake is allowed to observe and report:
Just left the chamber, where most members were at least partially engaged with @RepJoeNeguse presentation. The biggest exception: @HawleyMO - sitting up in the gallery with his feet up on the seat in front of him, reviewing paperwork, throughout.
Hawley claims he was there in order to see better and that he was reading trial briefs but, even if you believe this excuse, shouldn’t he have read the briefs beforehand or maybe after?
