    St. Louis Councilwoman Lisa Clancy posted photos of Sen. Josh Hawley's (R-MO) campaign bus taking up six spaces as it parked horizontally across the parking lot filled with cars.

    "Hey Senator Hawley, I know you’re not around very often, but normally out-of-state travelers don’t just leave their bus illegally parked in six spaces when they head back home to wherever. The county asks you come back to MO to move your bus," Clancy posted on X Thursday.

    The photo posted looking down on the parking lot and another photo from a Reddit user both show that cars parked in the spots on each side of the bus, effectively making it impossible for the bus to move without hitting the cars around it.

    The photos from Clancy and the Reddit user also show a green sticker on the window warning the bus could be towed. There's also a business card taped to the bottom of the front windshield reading, "You absolutely suck at parking. Flip over to see the reason."

    A tissue is also looped under the windshield wipers.

    Hawley's communications director claimed it was fake news, saying that the stickers could be purchased on Amazon and were likely placed there by Clancy. She further accused Hawley's opponent, Marine veteran Lance Kunce of sending his supporters to put the stickers on the bus.

    Kunce retweeted Clancy's photos , saying that if Hawley paid off the parking tickets, it "might end up being the first time he's brought money back home to Missouri since he got to the Senate!"

    She didn't dispute the accuracy of Hawley's bus being in the lot and parking horizontally across six spots, which was blocked by those around him.

    Seems like he would have to park his bus in storage on his own dime. We own several semi trucks and trailers, and we have to pay a monthly fee to park. Why should it be any differently for him--I heard his daddy is loaded.
