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.[….]
Project much?
Billboard in the Washington, D.C. metro area.
Missourians are going to be reminded of that raised fist for a long time.
You think he sees that billboard every day on his commute between his home in Virginia and the Capitol? Just asking.
