There was hilarity in the responses:
for you to get out of MO politics.
I was once almost a straight-ticket GOP voter. Now I find myself firmly in the independent camp. The GOP needs a course correction. You can’t be a part of that.
For you to get a job in some other country.
….to raid another veterans’ charity?
NOT!
Can I suggest the campaign slogan “Pull-up Missouri!”
NO.
Momentum, eh?

What’s up with that? Why now? Just asking.
JEFFERSON CITY — A political action committee supporting a Sunset Hills state representative weighing a statewide campaign landed a $200,000 contribution from a secretive nonprofit on Monday.
In November, state Rep. David Gregory, a Republican, changed his committee registration to reflect that he was exploring a run for statewide office, presumably auditor, the only statewide position in Jefferson City up for grabs next year.
The Alliance for Economic Progress Inc. sent Gregory’s Show Me Growth PAC $200,000 on Monday, according to the Missouri Ethics Commission. The original source of the money was not clear. [….]

Hawley Calls for Investigation into Democrat Abuse of Senate Ethics Process
Monday, January 25, 2021U.S. Senator Josh (R-Mo.) is filing a counter-complaint today against seven Senate Democrats who called for an ethics investigation into his objection to certifying Pennsylvania’s electoral count. The Democrats admitted in their complaint that Hawley’s electoral college objection was lawful. In a letter to the seven Democrat Senators, Senator Hawley called out the senators for their historic partisan abuse of the Senate ethics process and potential coordination with dark money groups.[….]

When it’s Sedition, it pours.
Josh Hawley (r) scheduled a February fundraiser in Florida.
Today:
Loews Hotels @Loews_Hotels
We are horrified and opposed to the events at the Capitol and all who supported and incited the actions. In light of those events and for the safety of our guests and team members, we have informed the host of the Feb. fundraiser that it will no longer be held at Loews Hotels.
12:18 PM · Jan 16, 2021
Dayam.

Some of the comments:
You would think Trump’s insurrection mob would pick Trump hotels.
Like Donald himself, have they no loyalty?
Because, God knows, Donald’s hotels are going to need the business.
Every place they go, every thing they do, and every business or person that supports them..:we have to be as loud as the seditionists but use peace, the power of our wallets and the power of our votes to end them.
He should NEVER be allowed into polite elite society EVER. That is all they care about anyway. They should be shunned for life and thank god they are rich and white and able to get out of an insurrection in this country without jail time.
Thank you @Loews_Hotels for not supporting vile and seditious @HawleyMO.
“Supporting Josh Hawley … was the worst decision I’ve ever made in my life,” former MO Sen. John Danforth told The Associated Press.
Danforth is @HawleyMO’s mentor.
Thank you for doing this. I am confident that @HawleyMO can find another way to fleece the public and taxpayers to pay for his family vacation. This is the right move.
Good call.
I’m a professional meeting planner and make venue decisions all the time.
The moral and ethical associations of the venues I choose is a big consideration when I recommend or contract for major meeting and lodging venues.
Good call.
Outstanding. A great corporate response to what is turning out in Hawley’s case to be a national security issue. Its time for others to stand up for our country and what we really believe in.
Made my day.
Thank you. You chose the right side of history. It was either Democracy or Fascism. Glad you chose Democracy.
And on and on…
