"Enough with the fasting and prayer! You expect me to do everything for you!?"

U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley on Monday blamed Republican election losses on his party abandoning working Americans, criticizing cuts to Medicaid that he voted to approve last year.
The Missouri Republican also called for what he described as a “historic response” to last week’s election: a one-hour gathering for fasting and prayer at the U.S. Capitol next month.
Hawley’s comments came as Democrats prepared to take control of both chambers of Congress and Senate Republicans confronted growing pressure to reconsider their leadership and legislative priorities.
“When you abandon pro-lifers, when you abandon the needy, when you abandon the poor, when you abandon working people, the American people might have something to say about that,” Hawley told reporters at the Capitol, according to CNN.

I can’t be there in person, but I can join in prayer that day.
Hey Josh, how about kickin the living shit out of the do nothing senate Republicans!
“When you abandon pro-lifers, when you abandon the needy, when you abandon the poor, when you abandon working people, the American people might have something to say about that,”
Where did he come up with that?!
More work permits for foreigners and mass amnesty for illegal should win them back!
Why would one “Republican,” Senator Josh Hawley from the Great State of Missouri, join with all of the Democrats to block a Review, sponsored by Senator Rick Scott, and with the support of almost all other Republicans, of Nancy Pelosi’s Stock Trading over the last 25 years. ~ DJT
Hey Josh, the whole of the DC government has failed the people but they are making off like bandits with billions of our money.
Hawley was also the lone wolf objecting to Medicare cuts which only affected fraud and abuse...” ~ a freeper
Blind trust
I think the bigger problem is the Thune, Johnson and the rest of the 24/7 crowd (24 weeks per year, 7 hours per week) just abandoned working.
Start with that pompous jackass John Thune. What a turd head that guy. He cost the GOP everything by not getting the SAVE ACT passed.
Fasting and prayers. Yeah, I’m sure that’ll fix what ails the GOP.
Active trades daily, which are impacted from tweets, executive action and policy.
I like senator Hawley but he never should have participated in preventing recess appointments. Keeping the senate in session undermined president Trump.
Take your fasting and prayers and shove them up your ass Hawley.
They always say crap like that when they lose power. Now the Republicans can continue to do nothing, while they talk about what they'd do if they had power.
Democrats regard “working people” as “The Rich who aren’t paying their fair share to the non-working people”
The Nov. 10, 2026, Senate GOP leadership vote reelected John Thune as conference leader (now minority leader) by acclamation with no challenger. Individual ballots were not recorded or released. A prior procedural vote to proceed passed 31-15; Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley and a few others walked out. No full list of supporters exists.
That does not mean Josh did not vote for Thune. Thune is the problem.The SOB still has time to pass the Save Act, but he won’t.
