Leaked Audio Exposes Level of Corruption in DC

· Leaked audio from an event held in March 2022 by Alabama U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks explains that seats on the most powerful committees in Congress must be bought, at a price of $1 million or more

· The money for these seats comes from lobbyists, who offer to pay the price of the seat in exchange for political favors

· “Special interest groups run Washington, and I don’t mean that metaphorically,” Brooks said. “I mean literally”

· This arrangement corrupts debate on public policy, but while the national media is aware of the issue, and both political parties are guilty of engaging in it, no one is bringing it to the forefront as a major public policy issue

 

If you had any doubt that U.S. politics are run by a pay-to-play system, listen to the striking commentary made by Alabama U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks in the video above. The leaked audio is from an event held in March 2022¹ and explains, in no uncertain terms, that seats on the most powerful committees in Congress must be bought, at a price of $1 million or more.

The money for these seats doesn’t come from average Americans, who typically can’t afford to donate that much. It comes from lobbyists, who offer to pay the price of the seat in exchange for political favors. “Special interest groups run Washington, and I don’t mean that metaphorically,” Brooks said. “I mean literally.”²
