(DCNF)—Republican Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley said Monday on Fox News that it’s “time to blow the lid off” Democrats’ “dark money” operations, following ongoing and intense protests against the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE’s) Elon Musk and his car company.
Democrats have protested Musk’s involvement in Trump’s administration since Inauguration Day. Protesters were reportedly involved in over a dozen violent or destructive acts directed at Musk’s electric vehicle (EV) Tesla facilities, according to The Washington Post. On “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Watters asked Hawley about the increase in violence against Musk and his company, asking “how seriously” lawmakers were taking the apparent “domestic terrorist attacks” against Tesla.
“Well, it ought to be serious, particularly if you follow the money, as you were just pointing out, Jesse. It’s time to blow the lid off the dark money operation of the left. They’ve been doing this for years,” Hawley said.
“They’ve been funding all kinds, whether we’re talking about terrorism on campuses, the pro-Hamas terrorists, whether we’re talking about these attacks on Tesla, whether we’re talking about what’s happened at people’s homes, the justices’ homes of the Supreme Court, for instance. All of that is astroturf, left-funded garbage. We ought to find out where all of it is coming from,” Hawley added.
An Oregon Tesla dealership near Portland was hit with gunshots on Thursday, damaging multiple cars and shattering windshields, according to Fox News. Protests against Tesla also intensified Saturday as part of a nationwide “Tesla Takedown” opposition, with hundreds of people gathering in cities.
Since 2020, protesters have taken to U.S. streets to march for social justice. Last year, many pro-Palestine protesters caused damage to major cities and universities. One of the Democrats’ primary funding platforms, ActBlue, has been known to process donations for several pro-Palestinian groups, including some that praised Hamas’ terrorist attacks.
“But Jesse, I’ll also just say this,” Hawley said. “The left have really gotten to be a bunch of weirdos. Just a year ago they were all driving EV’s and touting their moral virtue for doing so, and now they’re burning down the dealerships, disrupting the State of the Union.”
“These people are weird, and that’s why the American people will not give them power,” Hawley added.
Democrats have pushed for the United States to have more progressive attitudes about electric vehicles. Members of the Biden-Harris administration aimed to have EVs make up 50% of all new car sales by 2030.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
