Josh Hawley stands by accusations after fiery Senate hearing clash with Minnesota AG Ellison

Sen. Josh Hawley tore into Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison over fraud during a fiery exchange on Capitol Hill. Hawley accused Ellison of ignoring whistleblowers for years and argued he should be jailed over alleged bribery tied to the scheme.

The exchange took place during a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing, where Hawley brought up the Feeding Our Future scandal. The nonprofit falsely claimed to be feeding thousands of children during the COVID-19 pandemic, but little food was distributed.
