Someone is worried about re-election? Hawley always annoyed me because he's intelligent and had done a few good things before getting in with the MAGA crowd and its forebearers. He's the perfect example of someone who could be a statesman but settled for the self-serving financial comfort of being a politician. Someone like Ted Cruz, though, was always bound to be a grasping asshole. Same goes for Lauren Hoebert, Mike "I monitor my adult son's porn intake too closely" Johnson, JD Vance, and MTG.
He sure sounds progressive there. Maybe someone needs to check his heart rate, blood pressure, and temperature for...you know "agitation". Live by the sword, eh Joshy?
Was he not pumping his fist after January 6th or was that another MAGAT? Also, this is his audition for Wal-Mart. Once the bribe errr donation check clears, he will “do more research” and discover that what Wal-Mart is doing is good! Tailoring the shopping experience
I feel like it should be mentioned that many companies have been using similar measures on us online in order to target us with ads for quite a while; it is the very basis on which the richest companies in history made their money.
Also, if you apply for something online, credit, insurance, whatever, especially if you use an app from the company, your battery level and many other markers like keystroke speed are absolutely fed into a profile that they use to determine your suitability.
FUCK JOSH HAWLEY who grandstands on the House floor for votes but then votes for every fucking issue he's pretending to stand against! He's my senator and he's a fucking MAGA trump sucking stooge!
How does that bitch keep that plastic smile across her face while she force feeds that ghoulish bullshit down our throats? It’s coming whether you like it or not, and this is only the beginning?! Well, fuck that, and fuck you.
He's right, but as he has enthusiastically supported the very people stripping our rights and feeding us to those large corporations and privacy thieves, FUCK him.
He's grandstanding. It's political theater. Guaranteed that he takes campaign donations off the record through super PACs from all the companies he just eviscerated on the record.
Yep, as soon as he got to "Everything is too expensive. Gas is too expensive. Blah blah blah" I just went "And what party is at fault for all that, Hawley, you absolute piece of shit?"
Bro this is nothing more than a, I'm going to vote to help you once you give me my bribe. That's it he's just looking for a handout because you know he's going to vote Party line every fucking time.
Hawley is just worried that a Walmart shopping cart will catch him running again in "January 6th part 2: 2 much treason and 2 many chickens still running"
The Nazi guy who's sold out working class Americans for his billionaire bribe donors is somehow concerned for the economic wellbeing of the people he sold out... is that irony or an oxymoron or... what's the word for that?... oh yeah, "Ridiculous bullshit"... fuck you Hawley and fuck Walmart too.
There are always choices. Not easy, maybe not simple, but there are always choices and I'm sick of hearing people make excuses for why they Need to have Amazon Prime, why they Need to be on X, and why they Need to shop at Walmart. Bullshit. We're in this chaos because Americans LOVE their precious brands. Everyone else should sacrifice, but MY choices won't matter. Lazy, selfish, addicted Americans.
In my town the only grocery stores are a Walmart neighborhood market, a kroger a couple miles away, and a couple yuppie stores (think whole foods, new seasons, chucks)
I shop at the yuppie stores because I can afford it but it is a CLOSE thing. If I had even one kid to feed I would not be able to, and it'd be off to the demons I go. Don't be ignorant.
"It's a banana, what can it cost - ten dollars?" YES, ACTUALLY.
Don't even get me started on disability access. Walmart delivers medications!
I can go to the dollar general for canned preserved foods, or I can go to walmart for half decent groceries. Of course I could drive for four hours and skip all the walmarts to get to a target that sells groceries, but how are they any better? Which company do I sell my soul to? How do I budget another 60$ for gas? Should I not pay the water bill? Heating? I don't have rent or mortgage here. I can't sell the house nor can I afford to move. I can't virtue signal with brown paper bags and survive.
This exactly! Our town is a food desert. We have a Dollar Tree and a Dollar General. Closest store with actual groceries and fresh items is a Walmart, and it's 10 miles away. Those are our choices.

Fuck that nazi loving shithead. Hawley is only cosplaying concern for the midterms, he'd never levy any consequences.

The thing is, they'd taken something like that, claim the aggressors where antifa/libs and run with it as a selling point to support them.

Why is she smiling the whole time she's saying this? It's creeping me out.

What's damning about this for Hawley is it proves that he knows what the right thing to do is, which takes away his excuse for never doing it.

Talk about a guy so two-faced you should never listen to a word he says
clonedeeznuts
He deserves an Oscar for that acting. And I mean he should be in the trash along with Walmart.
JustTheCats
Hey, don't inflict him on Oscar the Grouch! Oscar has done nothing wrong
OvoidTrapezoid
Either that or he had a "Grinch" moment where his heart grew some sizes somehow.
akafluffy
He had a mid-life crisis and realized he might go to jail after the midterms if he didn't do his job.
OvoidTrapezoid
That's more likely, if we're being honest.

Bruh, I've been boycotting Walmart for a decade already...

That's okay because the technology is coming to you regardless of where you shop.

Honestly, I couldn't tell you the last time I was in a Walmart so decade felt nice and round. Could be 15+.

We have completely chased them out of our country and made them lose a billion dollars in the process. Great fun, can only recommend.

What country managed that?

I bet he is German. It's Germany.

Correct. Though South Korea and Japan did it too.

It's a good plan. We should definitely do this.
