Former Alabama Republican Rep. Mo Brooks has revealed that former President Donald Trump asked him to help overturn the 2020 presidential election. Brooks said that Trump asked him to advocate rescinding the election, physically removing Joe Biden from the White House, reinstating Donald Trump as president of the United States and holding a new special election for president of the United States.
However, Brooks has yet to be contacted by special counsel Jack Smith, who is leading the Justice Department’s investigation into Trump’s efforts to overturn the election. Trump’s attorneys Todd Blanche and John Lauro have met with prosecutors in Smith’s office, according to three sources.
In an interview with NBC News, Brooks said that he would meet with prosecutors if they asked. He added that he was “mildly surprised” that Smith’s office had not sought a meeting with him to discuss his accusations. The lawyers were told to expect an indictment, two sources said.
The Justice Department’s investigation into Trump’s efforts to overturn the election is ongoing. It is unclear whether Brooks will be contacted by Smith or if his accusations will be taken into account. It is also unclear what the outcome of the investigation will be.
The accusations made by Brooks are serious and could have a significant impact on the investigation. It remains to be seen what the special counsel will uncover and how it will affect the outcome of the investigation.
