Mo Brooks Reveals How Republicans Were Supposed To Ask Trump For Pardons
4 min read
Republican Representative Mo Brooks sent a letter to CBS news that he had written (allegedly at Trump’s request) about how to go about asking for a pardon. This was an odd move by the Republican congressman, but it could be a show of good faith that he is ready to cooperate fully with investigators. Farron Cousins explains what the release means, and of course, what the letter says.

On Thursday evening, CBS news is a, uh, election chief or chief election and campaign correspondent. Excuse me, received a text message this past Thursday. The text message was from lame dot Congressman Mo Brooks and the text message contained an email that he had sent on Donald Trump’s behalf before the end of the Trump administration on how to request a presidential pardon Mo Brooks willingly voluntarily sent this information. This rather damning piece of information that he himself wrote to the media here is what the letter that Mo Brooks let CBS news have said. It is clear that deep pocketed and vitriolic socialist Democrats with perhaps some liberal Republican help are going to abuse America’s judicial system by targeting numerous Republicans with sham charges deriving from our recent fight, for honest and accurate elections and speeches related there to as such, I recommend that president give general all purpose pardons to the following groups of people, every Republican who signed the Amicus brief in the Texas lawsuit against other states deriving from their violation of article one, section four and perhaps other provision of the United States constitution, every Congressman and Senator who voted to reject the electoral college vote submissions of Arizona and Pennsylvania.
America simply cannot permit socialist Democrats to abuse, freedom of speech, freedom of association. This is not in the constitution. United States, constitution, and various federal statutes via their often used strategy of abusing the judicial process via private organizations they fund, or the prosecutor prosecutorial arm. They will soon control. Thank you for your consideration. Mo Brooks sent from my iPad.
All right. That was a bit of a mouthful, right? But basically the gist of it is Mo Brooks was in charge. And again, this was in coordination with Donald Trump also, by the way, in coordination with Matt gates, he was one of the people. In fact, it actually started dear Molly, president Trump told me to send you this letter. This letter is pursuant to a request from Congressman Matt gates. Like that’s how the letter actually starts word for word. Trump wanted me to give this to you, Matt gates, you know, kind of created this whole thing, I guess. So gates is a little bit deeper involved in the whole pardon thing than we had previously thought. Now the big question is what in the world is Mo Brooks doing texting this to the media? I mean, this makes ’em look bad, right? I have a theory, nothing more than a theory. I mean, come up with your own if you want. But here is mine. We got reports the day that he sent this to the press.
That day, we got reports from Mo Brook saying, you know what? I think I’m ready and willing to sit down with the January 6th committee provided. Of course they agree to some of these demands that I have, but he was bitter about losing his election. Last week, he was bitter about Donald Trump pulling his endorsement from him. He had begged to get it back, failed to do it. Then he lost political careers over, at least for now. So he just sends this evidence to CBS news. What this tells me is that Mo Brooks is attempting to make a show of good faith.
He is trying to show us that he is in fact, ready to talk and that he does in fact have some pretty significant evidence. This is just a small piece of it. That’s why he did this in my opinion. That is again my theory, but he’s trying to basically fire the warning shot towards Donald Trump saying I’m not afraid of you anymore. I was there for all of this. I know the dirty secrets. And they’re about to get told that I think is why Brooks sent this to the media to go ahead and let us all know that he is prepared to come out guns blazing against his former friends.
