Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) is denying reports of his possible involvement in the planning of the Jan. 6 rally, but said in an interview published on Monday that he would "proud" if a member of his staff had helped plan the event that that preceded the deadly attack on the Capitol.

“I had no intentions of going to that rally until Jan. 5, when the White House asked me to speak,” Brooks told AL.com in a phone interview, explaining his appearance at the rally.

During the interview, the Alabama congressman denied a report in Rolling Stone over the weekend that said he or his top staffers had been in contact with the people organizing the "Stop the Steal" rally and other protests following the 2020 presidential election.

Prolly why he made the statement.

The “siege” was staged — all of it.

I was initially shocked by the headline. Because I thought it said: Mel Brooks says he would ‘be proud’ if staff helped organize Jan. 6 rally.

The corrupt, criminal FBI/CIA/ etc were behind it with operatives mixed into the crowds.

It was very much staged.

I recall one of those people arrested and railroaded into a 68 year prison sentence for helping the Bundy Family at Bunkerville in April 2014, Greg Burleson, was recruited years before by the FBI.

The FBI used Burleson to go to left-wing demonstrations they wanted him to spy on the Left.

Last year with all the Leftists on the streets and President Trump ordering action the FBI must have recruited countless Oath Keepers, Proud Boys etc. to monitor the Leftists then used them in connection with January 6th.

The rally was fine and was a distinct and separate event from the clown show in the Capitol that happened later on.

I am glad Mo brought this up.

After he said this nobody will vote for him. Well, except for about 63% of the people in Alabama.

The Derp State insurrectionists were the ones who did the killing.
