Ring of Fire: Alabama Republican Says Democrats Waging “War on Whites”

Republican House member Mo Brooks appeared on Laura Ingraham's radio program Monday to discuss immigration, but ended up expressing his chaotic views on the imaginary "War on Whites" that Democrats are supposedly pushing.

“This [immigration] is a part of the war on whites that’s being launched by the Democratic Party. And the way in which they’re launching this was is by claiming that whites hate everybody else,” said Brooks. “It’s part of the strategy that Barack Obama implemented in 2008, continued in 2012, where he divides us all on race, on sex, greed, envy, class warfare, all those kinds of things. Well that’s not true.”

Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses Mo Brooks' ridiculous statement.
