Josh Hawley Claims Media Trying To Silence Him -- During Event Hosted By Media Outlet
Source: Huffington Post
Josh Hawley is convinced that media organizations are out to get him, trying to take away his voice as a powerless, everyday Republican senator from Missouri.
On Tuesday morning, Hawleys latest grievance was directed at The Washington Post ― the outlet that was giving him a prominent platform to promote his new book.
Dont try to censor, cancel and silence me here, Hawley said.

Republicans have made railing against cancel culture a significant part of their platform on social issues, claiming that society at large is hostile to their ideas and trying to banish them simply because theyre conservative. They believe that they are the real victims.
They often make these claims that they are being silenced from their prominent positions in government, at think tanks, in academia and in the media.

No rest, no peace for these thugs...
