Meanwhile, CNN is doing its best to push the narrative that Brooks – a BLM supporter whose social media accounts are riddled with anti-white hate speech, was simply fleeing a crime he had just committed and that slamming into the parade was an accident.
Exactly. Anyone that lives in an around Waukesha knows this. https://t.co/tlg2A09dap

What’s more, Brooks was accused in his most recent case of “purposefully” running a woman over with his vehicle.

Info from the Wisconsin Courts page about Brooks shows his cash bond was posted just a few days ago; he is scheduled for a Zoom hearing just a few days before Christmas, according to WI court records.
Tipsters have also stumbled upon a Soundcloud page allegedly belonging to Brooks which included rap tracks with anti-Trump lyrics. They also featured samples of Malcolm X.
The question now, as Laura Loomer noted overnight, is who exactly paid for Brooks’ cash bail? Meanwhile, local authorities said the next press conference will be held at 1300 local time on Monday.
