Manhood review: Josh Hawley, moraliser, neo-Confederate and Tucker Carlson of the US Senate

 https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/may/13/manhood-review-josh-hawley-book-tucker-carlson

Josh Hawley is a neo-Confederate at war with modernity. A Republican senator from Missouri, he opposed renaming military bases honoring rebel generals and was the sole vote against a bill to crack down on anti-Asian hate crime. After the supreme court ruled that federal law protects employees against discrimination based on sexual orientation, Hawley bemoaned “the end of the conservative legal movement”. That the decision was written by Neil Gorsuch, an arch-conservative, was irrelevant.
