“They did more to hurt the Republican Party and our efforts for honest and accurate elections than anybody could have, even those who would’ve followed a script written by the Democratic Party,” Brooks said Friday during a conversation with AL.com ahead of a “Stand Up Alabama” rally at 4 p.m. today in Spanish Fort where he will be the keynote speaker.

#FakeNewsMedia! #ALCOM #JohnSharp inserts “baseless” or “unproven” when I talk about 2020 election voter fraud & makes it look like those words are mine when they are his opinion, not mine.

2020 voter fraud & illegal voting was real & massive. Sigh.https://t.co/OV283NVfRf
