Josh Hawley, born in 1980 in Springdale, Arkansas, is a U.S. Senator from Missouri known for his populist conservative views and advocacy for traditional family values. Before entering politics, he graduated from Stanford University and the University of Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, eventually becoming Missouri’s Attorney General in 2017. As Attorney General, Hawley gained national attention for his aggressive stance against tech companies like Google, positioning himself as a champion of state rights and consumer protection. In 2018, he successfully ran for the U.S. Senate, defeating incumbent Democrat Claire McCaskill and cementing his place as a rising star in the Republican Party.

Hawley’s political philosophy is deeply influenced by his personal beliefs, particularly those explored in his 2021 book Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs. In the book, he critiques modern American culture for undermining traditional masculinity, arguing that men today are facing a crisis of purpose and identity. Drawing from his Christian faith and a vision of American virtue, Hawley calls for a return to virtues like courage, responsibility, and honor, which he sees as crucial for both personal fulfillment and societal strength. Through his political career and his writing, Hawley has emerged as a leading voice in the conservative movement, advocating for a new vision of masculinity and the importance of strong families in rebuilding American society.
