Sen. Josh Hawley Washes His Hands Of The 'Pro-Pedophile' Smears He Ignited

WASHINGTON — Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) does not seem bothered by far-right figures saying his colleagues support pedophilia because they support Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court nomination.

“I don’t feel any responsibility for the words of other people,” Hawley told HuffPost on Tuesday.

Hawley was the first to criticize Jackson by calling her soft on child pornography offenders last month. He argued that she wrongfully handed out light sentences to people who possessed child sexual abuse images, even though her record in those cases was typical for a federal district judge.

Hawley’s criticism resonated with far-right conspiracy theorists who believe Democrats are involved in child sex trafficking rings, and on Monday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) declared that any senator who supports Jackson’s nomination is actually “pro-pedophile.”

5. This is what these assholes do

They strike a match and throw it into a pile of kindling doused in gasoline and sit back and deny ever contributing to the fire. Words and actions have consequences, Josh....just like your stupid fist pump on 1/6.
