WASHINGTON — Missouri&#8217;s Republican senator Josh Hawley unleashed on Code Pink activists who confronted him in the halls of Congress on Thursday, videos first obtained by The Daily Wire show.
As the senator took a question from a reporter about TikTok, the head of Code Pink, Medea Benjamin, questioned Hawley, &#8220;How about weapons to Israel?&#8221; holding a phone up to his face to record his response. Hawley, aware of which group she was with, quickly responded: &#8220;Oh, you&#8217;re the China people! You are 100% funded by the Chinese Communist Party.&#8221;
Code Pink is a far-left anti-war group known for its antisemitism and ties to China. The <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/05/world/europe/neville-roy-singham-china-propaganda.html">New York Times reported</a> in 2023 that the group is part of a &#8220;lavishly funded influence campaign&#8221; working closely with &#8220;the Chinese government media machine&#8221; to promote the CCP — it has, in turn, gone as far as defending the Chinese detention of Uyghur Muslims.
The group, which has aligned with Hamas since its October 7, 2023 terrorist attack against Israel, has <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2024/09/17/josh-hawley-fires-back-protesters-swarmed-him-after-hearing-code-pink-palestine-ccp/">repeatedly protested</a> against Hawley, who has defended the Trump administration in its efforts to deport anti-Israel protesters who promote Hamas on college campuses.

&quot;It is a moral travesty what you do,&quot; he tells Code Pink&#39;s Medea Benjamin. &quot;You have blood on your hands&#8230;you&#39;re awash in blood and dirty money.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/8BeeLBZkgb">pic.twitter.com/8BeeLBZkgb</a>

&#8220;You&#8217;re deflecting from all the money you take from AIPAC! You&#8217;re a foreign agent!&#8221; the activist exclaimed on Thursday. &#8220;You&#8217;re a baby killer because you want to send more bombs to kill more children in Gaza.&#8221;
Hawley responded, interjecting between her responses: &#8220;You are anti-semite&#8230;.anti-Israel, pro-China, pro-CCP, it is disgusting. Your organization has defended the Uyghurs being violated, being persecuted, it is a moral travesty what you do.&#8221;
&#8220;Where is the blood on your hands?&#8221; he continued emphatically. &#8220;You have blood on your hands. You&#8217;re awash in blood and dirty money and I hope that you are accountable for that one day.&#8221;
She continued to follow him as he walked away, surrounded by reporters.
Another video obtained by The Daily Wire shows Benjamin pursuing Hawley, asking why he is sending taxpayer dollars to &#8220;bomb people in Gaza,&#8221; questioning, &#8220;Are you America first? Are you America first?&#8221;
At this point, another activist appears on the scene, this one dressed in a black and white keffiyeh, and she tells Hawley, &#8220;You&#8217;re a baby killer.&#8221;
&#8220;You&#8217;re a baby killer,&#8221; he responded. &#8220;The Uyghur babies? Their blood is on your hands. The blood of the Chinese is on your hands. And of course of the Jews.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
The Code Pink activists followed Hawley, berating him for supporting Israel. 
Hawley was giving it right back.
&quot;You&#39;re just a Jew hater, right? You&#39;re along for the ride?&quot; 
&quot;You are rabidly anti-Israel. You are absolutely morally despicable. You are appalling.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/PRsRs17dDo">pic.twitter.com/PRsRs17dDo</a>
&mdash; Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) <a href="https://twitter.com/MaryMargOlohan/status/1907951360764510557?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 4, 2025</a></blockquote>
The second, younger activist laughs as she films close to Hawley&#8217;s face and asks, &#8220;You&#8217;re a Christian Zionist right?&#8221;
&#8220;Oh no, no, don&#8217;t accuse ME of things,&#8221; he responded. &#8220;You&#8217;re a Jew hater. You would destroy the nation of Israel.&#8221;
&#8220;Sir, you&#8217;re a public official,&#8221; laughs the activist. &#8220;You&#8217;re a public official!&#8221;
&#8220;Which means what, I can&#8217;t speak truth to power?&#8221; he asked.
They continue to argue as the senator leans in and tells the activist: &#8220;You love China, you are taking their money, and you are rabidly anti-Israel. You are absolutely morally despicable and I look forward to one day, the moral come-uppance that you will deserve.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m a health care worker!&#8221; the activist pipes up. &#8220;I save lives!&#8221;
&#8220;You are appalling,&#8221; he responds. &#8220;You don&#8217;t save lives, you are killing Jews and loving it. You are despicable.&#8221;
&#8220;You are a war criminal, baby killer,&#8221; responds the younger activist, raising her voice emotionally as the senator departs. In the background, the elderly activist calls after him, &#8220;Baby killer, you have blood on your hands.&#8221;
During a Senate Help Committee last week on antisemitism on campuses, the senator grilled a Democrat witness on what is being done to protect students on college campuses for anti-semitism. Hawley strongly defended the decision to deport Ivy League anti-Israel ringleader Mahmoud Khalil, saying: “I want to say for the record, I’m glad [Mahmoud Khalil] is gone, and I hope he never comes back.&#8221;
Code Pink did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Daily Wire.
