It’s cute that people think Hawley’s latest autocratic grab is new.

This guy left DC, moved to MO + from the moment he stepped foot in Boone County he’s violated ethics laws, lied to the public + positioned his pawns in places of power to achieve his endgame—the Presidency.
Every single thing he does is for one singular purpose—power.

He tells lies like most of us breathe. Using photos of him in New Mexico at his in-law’s ranch to make folks think he’s from a Missouri farming family.

Just like he was caught not living in Jefferson City as AG.
Just like he sold his home in Boone County after winning his Senate seat and pretended his entire family lived with his dad in Springfield.

Just like he now says he lives with his sister when really he’s building a million dollar vacation home on the Lake.
This guy doesn’t believe rules apply to him. It’s why he shops for wine in the afternoon when he’s supposed to be working.

It’s why he formed an organization that he later used for his campaign in violation of ethics rules.

It’s why he violates Senate rules so brazenly.
Like when he took official Senate correspondence sent to him from the public and posted it on his personal Twitter.

This guy DGAF, y’all. And he never has.

He lies. He’s hypocritical. He breaks the law. He’s disingenuous.

But it doesn’t matter. He’s climbing that ladder.
And he will burn down anything in his way.

He took down Greitens not because he thought it was the morally right thing to do but because Greitens was his biggest political threat.
Now he’s battling it out with McConnell + he’s gonna try and remove him from the equation too—make him look weak and feeble to the MAGA crowd, because Mitch is a threat to Hawley’s rise.

And America? Democracy? The health of our families?

He’s more than happy to risk that too.
He’s fine. He’s got multiple million dollar homes.

The more he’s on Fox News, the more power he collects. The more influence he has. So he’s incentivized to do this crazy shit no matter the cost.

His ambition has replaced his character. But it isn’t new for 2021.
This is a decade long plan now coming to the fore.

In less than 24 months he will announce his run for the Presidency.

If you want to know what he plans to do—it’s very simple, he will continue to lie + create chaos.
Why should you care? Because he’s very good.

People will remember he fought against BigTech + fought for $2k checks.

He’s a better populist than Trump. He’s more charismatic than Cruz.

He just installed his General Counsel at the FEC.

The pieces are falling into place.
He will be an effective autocrat in the way Trump never could.

Beating him requires spending the next four years community building across America—working as hard as we can to share the message that 2024 isn’t about left versus right—it’s about a democracy or a dictatorship.
