.@HawleyMO speaking now. His voice shaking, says he wants to thank Capitol Police and law enforcement all throughout the country.
Hawley still defending his plan to object. "This is the place where those objections are to be heard.... without violence, without bullets."
Hawley again claiming that PA Constitution restricts mail-in balloting. Again, PA has allowed absentee voting for decades (I've used it!), but the GOP legislature expanded it last year.

For KC area, Blunt will also lose Rules chairmanship to Klobuchar and Moran will lose Veterans Affairs chairmanship to Tester if the expected Dem victories in GA hold. Roberts’ retirement already meant the loss of his Ag chairmanship this Congress.
Blunt and Moran also each chaired an Appropriations subcommittee. Blunt’s has been particularly important because it oversees public health funding.
One thing this probably means for Klobuchar is she and Lankford can finally move their bipartisan election security bill (which McConnell opposed) out of cmte and onto the floor google.com/amp/s/amp.kans…

Watkins had one of the strangest careers of any Kansas politician. Emerged from obscurity to narrowly a district, battled rumors he was resigned and then went down for an easily avoidable and self-inflicted scandal. kansascity.com/news/politics-…
Full history will take a lot of tweets, but here I go. Watkins met with Democrats before he decided to run as a Republican. kansascity.com/news/politics-…
When he decided to run as a Republican it was as a Trump-style Republican saying "Drain the swamp." But he didn't actually vote in the 2016 election. Or any election before running for Congress. mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-…

On record comment from @NRSC spokeswoman on Kobach: “Just last year Kris Kobach ran and lost to a Democrat. Now, he wants to do the same and simultaneously put President Trump’s presidency and Senate Majority at risk." kansascity.com/news/politics-… #ksleg #kssen
I'm a little overstuffed with quotes from Republicans criticizing Kobach as a candidate, but Sam Brownback's former chief of staff David Kensinger sent me this one about his fellow Kansas Republican: "L-O-S-E-R." #ksleg #kssen
Kensinger's antipathy toward Kobach post-2018 is well-documented kansascity.com/news/politics-…
