It’s called an own goal.

Because this worked out so well the last time.

Can’t wait to file that RSMo § 610 “Missouri Sunshine Law” request.

Particularly funny considering the Missouri GOP has been at the wheel at the state legislature since ….
(checks notes)
**2002.**
They’ve had a trifecta since 2017.
So any wasteful spending they find is THEIR wasteful spending.
Sounds like a fun project.

Josh Hawley, own goal, protest, right wingnut, social media, Twitter, U.S. Senate, Virginia

It’s a habit.

Josh Hawley (r) [2016 file photo].

This morning, from Josh Hawley, floundering on social media:

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
[….]
Here’s his plea from court. To you Antifa clowns out there, we’re not going to let you get away with this any more
[….]
10:02 AM · Aug 24, 2021

Some of the responses:

Why is your home address listed as Virgina and not MISSOURI?

Virginia? It’s the whole damn address. House number. Street name

He may as well drawn a directional map for Twitter

Look man, I know you don’t like law and order but it’s really dumb to tweet out your address like this if you’re trying to stop people from calling out a dumbass in person

You can put your home address out there if you want, but I’m still not sending you a Christmas card.

Can you please provide a picture of his Antifa membership card because I think he was just a guy that disagreed with you.

Also, Vienna, is that a Missouri town?

It’s pronounced differently in Missouri. I spent a week there one day.

So you live in Virginia?

Best,

Your MISSOURI Constituent

Hmm…never realized the abbreviation for Missouri was “VA.” How about that?

Weird. Your home address is for Virginia? I thought you represented my state of Missouri. You should probably just give up your seat to someone that actually lives here.

And:

Danny Stark @dstark86
My senator tweeted out his address and I’d love to go protest outside his home but we don’t live in the same state

There’s that.
