Josh Hawley

Thursday's hearing introduced new video of the events of January 6, which included Hawley making a quick exit.

She told us that Sen. Hawley's gesture riled up the crowd, and it bothered her greatly because he was doing it in a safe space, protected by the officers and the barriers." As Rep. Elaine Luria, D-Va., pointed out during her hearing remarks, earlier on Jan. 6 Hawley had raised his fist outside the Capitol, in apparent tribute to the protesters who would shortly storm the complex and seriously injure numerous law enforcement officers. "We spoke with a Capitol Police officer who was out there at that time. Among that footage, nothing made a bigger impression than a clip of Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., making a rapid exit from out of the Capitol as Proud Boys, Oath Keepers and other supporters of Donald Trump roamed through the building. - Trump "was the cancer in the center" of January 6 plot Journalist Dan Przygoda responded with a clip of the Jan. 6 hearing attendees themselves reacting in real time to the footage shown of Hawley.

The committee heard live testimony from a pair of Trump White House aides, Sarah Matthews and Matthew Pottinger, resigned following Trump's actions on Jan. 6.

Hawley fled after those protesters he helped to rile up stormed the Capitol," Luria said.

But the committee clearly has another unstated mission: to humiliate hypocritical Republican lawmakers and former Trump administration officials. The committee dragged Senator Josh Hawley in exquisite fashion during its eighth hearing. “Later that day, Senator Hawley fled after those protesters he helped to rile up stormed the Capitol,” Luria continued.

He was one of six senators, along with Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall, who continued to object to the results even after the mob had violently stormed the Capitol. They highlighted Trump’s inaction as members of his family and staff urged him to condemn the violence. The hearing, broadcast in prime time, marked the first time Hawley has been publicly mentioned in the House investigation. The committee slowed the video down and played it again. In the video, Hawley, spotlighted, jogs out of the Senate chamber holding a folder. Hawley’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The committee hearing was focused on how former President Donald Trump spent his time between learning that the Capitol had been overrun and before he made a speech in the Rose Garden of the White House telling the rioters to go home. While Hawley has been able to financially capitalize on the photograph of him raising his fist — his campaign sells an illustrated version on Twitter — the committee has not shown evidence that he was involved in the inner workings of the Trump-led effort to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. Hawley was the first senator to say he would object to the certification of the election, setting up a process where both chambers had to hold votes to certify the electors from Pennsylvania and Arizona. The video served as a rebuke to the image Hawley projected that day, when he was captured in a photograph confidently raising his fist to protesters who would later violently break into the U.S. Capitol building. U.S. Rep. Elaine Luria, D-Virginia, showed the committee the famous photo of Hawley along with a comment from a member of the U.S. Capitol Police who watched the moment. The House of Representatives committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol on Thursday highlighted footage of U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Missouri, fleeing the Senate Chamber as the building was being overrun by a mob of Trump supporters.

Hawley, one of the Republican senators who led the effort to vote against certifying the election results, famously raised a fist in solidarity with the mob as ...

The committee will resume holding public hearings in September in order to share new evidence gathered by the investigation. During the assault, security officials scrambled to evacuate lawmakers. In their final hearing before an extended recess, the committee discussed the behavior of Republican lawmakers, who had encouraged former President Trump’s attempts to undermine the results of the 2020 election during the attempt by an armed mob to stop the congressional certification of the electoral college vote.

The footage was captured just hours after Hawley was seen raising his fist in solidarity with the Trump supporters gathered outside.

The riot ultimately disrupted the Senate's process to certify the election results, and led to at least five deaths, including a Capitol Police officer. In the wake of Hawley's actions, his planned book with Simon & Schuster was dropped by the publishing house, which said at the time it "did not come to this decision lightly." "We spoke with a Capitol Police officer who was out there at that time.

“That’s my job, and I will keep doing it.” “She told us that Senator Hawley’s gesture riled up the crowd,” Ms. Luria said. “I will never apologize for giving voice to the millions of Missourians and Americans who have concerns about the integrity of our elections,” Mr. Hawley said then. In the days after the attack on the Capitol, Mr. Hawley remained defiant, arguing that the electoral count in Congress was the proper venue to air his concerns about fraud in the balloting. “And it bothered her greatly because he was doing it in a safe space, protected by the officers and the barriers.” There were a fair share of “How it started … how it’s going” jokes at the expense of Mr. Hawley, who led the effort to object to electoral votes for Joseph R. Biden Jr. on Jan. 6, 2021, and is regarded as a potential Republican presidential contender.

The video of Hawley running away from the rioters he helped incite was reportedly met with “loud laughter” inside the hearing room.

Multiple reporters conveyed that the video of Hawley was met with “loud laughter” by those watching inside the hearing room. “We spoke with a Capitol Police officer who was out there at that time. “Senator Josh Hawley also had to flee,” Luria said.

The internet set the videos of Hawley running to everything from Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" to the theme song from "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

Congressional hearings: The House committee investigating the attack on the U.S. Capitol has conducted a series of hearings to share its findings with the U.S. public. Hawley has continued to make political hay — and money — out of the fist-pump picture. Five people died on that day or in the immediate aftermath, and 140 police officers were assaulted. Here’s a guide to the biggest moments so far. The officer told the committee that Hawley’s behavior “bothered her greatly” because he agitated the protesters from “a safe space,” protected by the barricades and police between him and any mob that might form. Moments after the clips were shown publicly, he was ready to call it. A U.S. Capitol police officer protecting the building reported to the committee that Hawley’s gesture “riled up the crowd,” Luria said, with a giant version of the fist-pump photo projected behind her. The committee replayed the footage in slow-mo for good measure. Some set the videos to music — mostly songs with lyrics about running. Aside from the brief burst of laughter, things remained somber at Thursday’s hearing. Hawley slapped a rendition of the image on several pieces of merchandise, along with the slogan “SHOW-ME STRONG!” — a reference to Missouri’s nickname, “the Show-Me State” — and began selling the items in February, the Missouri Independent reported in March. Then came a six-second clip showing Hawley whisking his way down a flight of stairs with others.

In both the buildup and aftermath of the January 6 insurrection on the U.S. Capitol, Hawley has used negative publicity to raise money for his campaign fund. “The first thought that popped into my mind is ‘Josh Hawley is a bitch and he ran like a bitch,” Fanone said. His office has not responded to a request for comment about the video. The room broke out in laughter. And he raised money by selling campaign merchandise — coffee mugs, t-shirts, beer koozies in a variety of colors — with the picture of him raising his fist to protesters that day (Hawley has said it is “not a pro-riot mug”). He raised money after becoming the first senator to say he would object to the certification of the 2020 presidential election, setting off a long vote that was interrupted by rioters who violently attacked U.S. Capitol Police officers and broke windows to enter the U.S. Capitol, causing lawmakers, staffers and reporters to flee. While Hawley has said he stands by his objection to the certification of the election, the committee has presented little evidence that he was closely involved with Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 presidential results. Instead, it appears he was able to capitalize on the politics of the moment, as a large portion of the Republican base believed Trump’s unfounded claims that the election was stolen. She presented the contrast between the image Hawley has projected that day — the raised fist — with his reaction as rioters had reached the second floor of the U.S. Capitol and were closing in — a spotlighted Hawley running, stiff backed, folder in hand. The Senate is in recess for the weekend and Hawley is not slated to return to the building until 3 p.m. ET Monday. On Friday morning, the Missouri Republican tweeted a link to his campaign website, which is selling a white coffee mug with an illustration of Hawley holding his fist up to protesters who later stormed the U.S. Capitol over the words “Show Me Strong.” The U.S. House committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol showed a video Thursday night of U.S. Sen.

Most importantly, is Josh Hawley faster than Rich Eisen, who routinely runs the 40 in a suit at the combine? In 2022 Eisen ran the 40 in 6.16 seconds, and Eisen is 53 years old to Hawley’s 42. In slowing the video down an analyzing frame-by-frame Hawley crosses the Capitol hall in 19 frames, spanning the distance of six Tatco 57029 54 1/2” Brass Wet Umbrella Bag Stands. I mean, it’s not like I have a blueprint of the capitol building to know its dimensions. After watching the clip of Hawley running over 100 times I struggled to find a touchstone to accurately measured how much ground he covered. The Jan. 6 committee played video of Senator Josh Hawley fleeing the mob that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, hours after he riled the crowd earlier with a raised fist.
