Members of the Code Pink group stormed the office of Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley Thursday, the Daily Caller learned.
In a video first obtained by the Daily Caller, the activist group affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party, according to the New York Times, can be seen occupying the front office of the Senator. The activists are heard calling for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict and denying accusations of their ties to the Chinese regime.
“These astroturf wackos are saying exactly what Communist China wants them to say,” Hawley said in a statement to the Daily Caller. “They’re just mad they’re finally being called out for taking money from China.”
During a confrontational exchange with Hawley on Wednesday, the first-term Senator pressed the activists to condemn China for committing “genocide” against the Uyghur community.
