Congressman Mo Brooks, R-Alabama, was in St. Clair County speaking to the County Republican Party in Pell City.
โI have never had such fear for the future of my country than I have now,โ Brooks told the St. Clair County GOP. โWe are at the pivotal point in our history unlike anything we have seen since the period from 1856 to 1860.โ
โWe are the greatest nation in world history,โ Brooks said. โWe have the most powerful military in the world, notwithstanding Bidenโs debacle in Afghanistan.โ
โWe have always elected our leaders,โ Brooks said. โWith the possible exception of 2020 that has always been the case.โ
Brooks said that the nation was founded by geniuses who put forth basic principles for governing the nation.
โThose basic principles are under attack,โ Brooks said. โThe freedom of speech is under attack,โ
Brooks said that people can be fired for what they say and they are censored by the social media platforms we use.
โThe freedom of religion is under attack,โ Brooks said. โThey are trying to force on us amoral values rather than the moral values taught in our Churches. Synagogues, and even mosques.โ
โFor two centuries we respected freedom of religion,โ Brooks said. โNow they donโt want you practicing your religion once you step outside of your Church.โ
Brooks said that we had laws against discriminating against people for the things that they canโt control like skin color or disability.
โBut you can always discriminate against a person whose conduct that you donโt like,โ Brooks said. The left is trying to change that.
โWe are even spending house floor time is a man becomes a woman because a man says he is a woman,โ Brooks said. โThe science of that has been settled since Adam and Eve, but they are science deniers.โ
โThe Left is pushing us there for a reason,โ Brooks said. โAs long as you believe that our rights and values come from God you are apt to fight for them. If on the other hand you believe that they are given to you by government, you wonโt object when they take them away. The Second Amendment right to bear arms the left will get rid of that in a minute.โ
โWe canโt win by 51 percent we have to win by 55 percent so that the official count shows us winning,โ Brooks said.
Brooks said that he understands conservatives who have given up hope and are angry with the government; however, Brooks urged that they channel that anger into getting out and winning the 2022 and 2024 elections.
โIf the elections were today we would take back the House with a large majority and we would retake the Senate because the left has revealed what they are trying to do,โ Brooks said but warned that all of that could change between now and the election.
Brooks defended his challenge of the election results.
โI was the one from the state of Alabama that led it and it was pretty lonely those first two weeks,โ Brooks said.
Brooks said that the media pointed to all of the court cases where the Trump teamโs election challenges were rebuffed.
โOf course, the decisions were 60 to nothing in favor of Joe Biden because itโs not the courtโs job to challenge the election results,โ Brooks claimed. โThere is no way that a court could do it justice.โ
โJan. 6 is the dayโ that is set aside for election results challenges, Brooks claimed.
Brooks said that the Commission on Federal Election Reform made several recommendations on elections. That was 2005. Their job was to examine our election laws. It was bipartisan. Jimmy Carter was cochair and James Baker, former chief of staff under Ronald Reagan, was the other. They produced a 100-page report.
โWe have too many noncitizens voting in American elections,โ Brooks said. โBetween 900,000 1.7 million non-citizens voted in 2020 and that can be a game-changer.โ
The Commission said, โWe need to have photo ID.โ
Brooks said voter ID is in place only in half of the states. In 12 states, you donโt have to show any proof of identification to vote. โI could come in and say I was Martha Brooks and they would give me a ballot.โ
โThe number one issue with our election was the mass mail out of ballots,โ Brooks said.
โWhat happens when you mail out ballots,โ is in direct conflict with what the Commission recommended.
Brooks explained that mail-out ballots violates the principle of chain of custody. People get multiple ballots. People fill out ballots for persons that moved or died.
โElection day is a 24 hour period,โ Brooks said. โThat is pretty simple.โ
โHow many people voted outside of that 24-hour window?โ Brooks said. โThe code says election day. It does not say election week or election month.โ
โHow many votes were cast outside of that 24-hour window?โ Brooks said, implying that the tens of millions who voted early or by mail were illegal.
Brooks said that only a state Legislature or Congress can set election law. If it is not done by the judges or state election officials and yet we had judges in Pennsylvania rewriting the laws for the election just weeks ahead of the vote.
โOther than legislators or Congress that covers all of Georgia and that covers all of Pennsylvania,โ Brooks said.
Brooks is currently in his sixth term representing Alabamaโs 5th Congressional District. He is running in the 2022 Republican primary for U.S. Senate.
