A group of protesters affiliated with a radical leftist group ShutdownDC, swarmed the Washington D.C. home of Senator Josh Hawley (R) last night. They were protesting the Missouri Senator’s vow to object to votes cast in the Electoral College on Wednesday.
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. 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

The protesters chanted about democracy being “under attack” and, according to Hawley, “screamed threats, vandalized, and tried to pound open our door.”
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

Hawley was not home at the time – he was in Missouri. But his wife Erin and their newborn baby, who the Senator says is unable to travel, were inside the home.
Hawley, who was among the first to declare his plan to object to votes cast in the Electoral College from states were widespread allegations of election fraud exist, vowed to carry on and not be intimidated.
And didn’t have the guts to do it in daylight, but only under cover of darkness so you could hide. You’re scum. And we won’t be intimidated
