Democrats, when they decide to acknowledge Antifa/BLM mobs and aren’t trying to justify them, sometimes try to differentiate themselves from them, suggesting they are more left. Even Antifa will do that, saying oh, they don’t support the “corporate Democrats.”

But here’s the thing. Somehow, whenever the Democrats’ dirty work needs to be done, they are their willing foot soldiers in the effort.

So, tonight radical leftists showed up to do their ‘direct action’ at the home of Sen. Josh Hawley (D-MO) in Washington, D.C. Why? Because he’s objecting to the electoral count. So, they are literally doing the Democrats’ dirty work, to harass a Republican and his family for daring to object, to harass him out of doing his duty.

But it sounded like rather than do that, it made Hawley more determined.

“Tonight while I was in Missouri, Antifa scumbags came to our place in DC and threatened my wife and newborn daughter, who can’t travel,” Hawley explained. “They screamed threats, vandalized, and tried to pound open our door. Let me be clear: My family & I will not be intimidated by leftwing violence.”

Now “vigil” means screaming threats through bullhorns, vandalizing property, pounding on the doors of homes and terrorizing innocent people and children https://t.co/naRMkrBWWO

Here’s part of the action.

A lot of people have pointed out that it kind of looks like they messing with the handle and possibly trying to get inside. There is no way to spin this. Their actions are completely unacceptable.

The group Shutdown D.C posted about going to Hawley’s home and doing a ‘vigil’ at his house. The vigil seemed to consist of screaming loudly on a bullhorn, threatening to “fight back”, and yelling things at the house. The groups also went up to the door, although it wasn’t clear what happened at the door.

The group confessed to being ‘anti-fascist’ as they tried to harass someone out of doing his duty to vote his conscience on the electoral count. Sort of looks pretty fascist to me. And yes, kids, it is a pejorative to be Antifa. But whatever you call yourselves, you’re scum and fascistic when you go to someone’s home at night to harass them and to disturb people.

We've gotten some media inquiries about Senator Josh Hawley's tweets about us…
1. We are absolutely and unapologetically anti-fascists. We are perplexed that someone would use that in the pejorative and we certainly would hope that Senator Hawley also opposes fascism. https://t.co/qtCvM05sdx

3. It's disappointing that Senator Hawley, an member of what presents itself as the greatest deliberative body in the world, would resort to calling us 'scumbags'. But if he must. We're happy to call him a snowflake.
