A good reporter really ought to follow up and get the name of ANY case where he stood in a criminal courtroom in front of a jury as a prosecutor. Has he even ever seen a jury in a criminal trial? Spoken to one? Done a voir dire? Made an opening statement? Cross x a witness? Ever?Bryan Lowry @BryanLowry3
.@HawleyMO’s explanation of his no vote will likely elicit a response from @clairecmc: “It’s too broad. As a former prosecutor, my view is it’s dangerous to simply give the federal government open-ended authority to define a whole new class of federal hate crime incidents.”
A few of the comments:
I found some interesting information on Hawley. Seems he said he argued a Hobby Lobby case, which is not the job of prosecutors, before the Supreme Court, and would have done so in violation of the Supreme Court bar. Admitted to the bar a year after the case was over.
As a retired prosecutor, I take issue with Hawley and his claims. He is an obstructionist with 0 trial experience. How laughable that he argues he represents the middle class!
I did some research and I couldn’t find a case that he prosecuted.
He only appears on Fox
“Stood”? That’s not nice, Claire. 😉
Mock trial at Yale Law, maybe.
One of those fancy ones.
Unfortunately no good reporters. Just saw him on the local news spewing his BS about need for local government offices to open. No one questions his residency. No one questions his sedition. No one questions his votes. There are no investigative reporters left.
Please hammer this point home every chance you get. It’s Hawley’s BIG LIE. (They all have at least one.)
Just another GQP poser… Ugh.
There you go.

Hawley can try to lie his way out of what happened but…
On Monday evening, Jan 4, on national tv (Fox) Hawley response to question as to whether he was “saying as of Jan 20 Trump would be President”?
His reply… “Well, Bret, that depends on what happens on Wednesday.”

This morning:
Claire McCaskill @clairecmc
We have a Governor who was too afraid to do anything but follow the Trump playbook on Covid, including getting the virus. It has caused death and economic destruction in my state. We are at a new hospitalization record today in Missouri. Shameful. Vote.
7:51 AM · Oct 9, 2020
Risky and Reckless.
That’s Trumpism for you.

Bob Woodward [2013 file photo].
Bob Woodward wrote a book. Apparently based on a lot of interviews with Donald Trump (r). There are audio recordings.
Claire McCaskill @clairecmc
It is hard for me to justify having the tape of Trump admitting the deadly danger of this virus while he was telling Americans it would just disappear…and sitting on it until a book release. That’s some bad stuff. Ugly.
12:09 PM · Sep 9, 2020
Some of the responses:
How many people would have acted more cautiously had Trump been honest? How many lives saved? My heart goes out to all the families who lost friends and family members. We’ll never know if they could have been saved.
Everyday something else that no one can keep up. 190,000+ dead, children still separated from parents and in cages, millions without jobs, soldiers having bounties on heads. I can’t take it. Now this and it’ll be news for a couple of days.
Many people warned trump about the virus. He was briefed in Nov 2019 about it. He ignored, he demoted people, he called them fanatics. Now is the time for the tape to come out. We knew trump failed. Now we have proof. I knew trump knew and that he did nothing.

Claire McCaskill: ‘…I would, you know, think about this for a minute. Let’s dwell on this just for a second. He’s [Donald Trump] obviously never read a [Bob] Woodward book. He doesn’t understand what Woodward books are. [Nicolle Wallace: laughter] And so this is, that’s, that’s strike one. Strike two is he sits for eighteen interviews. Okay, who in their right mind, who’s running for office in a year, within the year, sits for eighteen interviews with a journalist? This is not a smart thing to do [Voice: “With anyone.”] This is beyond folly. This is ultimate stupidity. He is so stupid. And he knows, he does, he did the last interview like a month ago. He did the last interview a month ago. So when is the book coming out? The book is coming out within two months of his election. With tapes. Eighteen hours of tapes. Hours and hours of tapes. So, this president is the stupidest president that has ever held the office. Forget about for a minute, for all of his followers, forget about the integrity issue, forget about the character issue. This guy’s too dumb to lead this country ’cause this was really, really stupid…’
Some of the responses:
She’s from Missouri!
Yes, she certainly is.
Auntie Claire don’t play da radio
It is what it is.
We see what you did there.
This just out. Trump has agreed to allow access to Melania Trump for a third book in this trilogy with Bob Woodward,tentatively titled “I’m With Stupid”.
#DumpTrump and save our country from this imbecile.

For Missourians…let it sink in that conservative members on the U S Supreme Court today did what Republicans in Jefferson City refused to do. They have continually embraced that it was ok in our state to fire someone just because they were gay. No more. Thank goodness.
