Josh Hawley has been mocked for urging people to buy his anti-Big Tech book – on Amazon and via Twitter.
The Senator from Missouri, who led Republican attempts to block certification of Joe Biden’s election victory on 6 January, complained on social media that “the woke mob” were targeting his book.
Mr Hawley infamously was photographed raising his fist in support of the pro-Trump mob hours before they stormed the US Capitol but still continued his objection to certifying Donald Trump’s defeat.
