Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) is asking the Senate Homeland Security Committee to call on Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and FBI director Christopher Wray to testify after the New Orleans attack.

Hawley sent a letter to incoming chairman of the committee Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), emphasizing Biden administration officials “cannot shirk public accountability” as President Biden’s term ends.

“When the 119th Congress convenes next week, and you assume leadership of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, I urge you to immediately call Mayorkas and Wray to publicly testify prior to their departure from office,” Hawley said.

Hawley wants a “full account of this attack” and any failures by their departments highlighted.

1. I would really like to see more respect among members of our government

[BumRushDaShow]

2. We are now going to be plagued with endless circus sideshow GOP nonsense "investigations"

for the next (at least) 2 years due to what is going on right now.

This will be the perfect foil for them to distract and cover up whatever goes on during the next administration, which will most likely be horrific.

[Walleye]

3. What's even scarier is a lot of the shit they do they aren't even gonna bother to cover up.

[BumRushDaShow]

4. That's true too

and their compliant media will dutifully report on the "plausibility" of what will be concocted, manipulated, and outright illegal actions.

I.e., instead of calling out the illegalities, they will preface them with the idiotic and inane but popular media missive - "Well it's complicated."

11. They don't cover up now!

Secret Serviced wiped their phones after Jan 6th.

Trump does whatever he wants.

Corrupt Supreme Court.

[mahina]

16. But will get them them their performative footage

Which is the goal.

Hereʻs hoping they dont take the wheels off this bus.

[Vinca]

5. Could they at least wait until the debris is removed from the street and the bodies are tagged?

This is pure politics. Both departments will be investigating this, but how can they tell Hawley what they don't yet know?

[IcyPeas]

6. "...cannot shirk public accountability ". Dont make me laugh!

Hawley gave a fist bump to insurrectionists then ran for his life.

Fuck you Hawley.

[Geechie]

14. I believe the RH photo

is next to the word “shirk” in the dictionary.

[oasis]

7. Publicity hound.

[lonely bird]

8. Hawley is a buffoon

Which is insulting to buffoons.

9. careful what you ask for, you might not like what you discover.

the emerging narrative is that the nola terrorist and the trump hotel bomber served in the same military unit, making it somewhat likely that them and other conspirators were radicalized serving in the US military.

10. According to CBS,

the hotel bomber was still active duty. His unit
is stationed in Germany while he was on leave
in Colorado.

12. Hawley loves domestic terrorism.

So he can shove his fake search for failures up his Nazi ass.

13. He would be the guy to ask this

cause he's scared of his own shadow

[LudwigPastorius]

15. Old Runnin' Josh Hawley has to be the first to make political hay out of the deaths of 15 innocents.

Go fuck yourself, shithead.
