Alex Bruesewitz invited to attend the certification of the electoral college on January 6

Alex Bruesewitz was invited by Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) to observe Congress’ certification of the Electoral College of President-elect Donald Trump on January 6.

In a press release shared with Breitbart News, Gooden noted that Bruesewitz had been “one of many innocent Americans” who were targeted and harassed by the Democratic-led select committee on January 6.

“Bruesewitz was one of many innocent Americans wrongly targeted, harassed and financially exhausted by the completely discredited January 6 Committee,” Gooden said. “I can’t wait to have him as a guest.”

As Breitbart News previously reported, when summoned to testify before the select committee on January 6, Bruesewitz pleaded the Fifth.

In his prepared remarks, Bruesewitz explained that he had rejected the initial offer to come voluntarily to speak with them “because the Committee is not properly constituted” and he has “no knowledge of” the attack “on the Capitol”.

At the time, Bruesewitz told Breitbart News that following an appearance on former Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s show and his statement, he “received a subpoena demanding closed-door testimony from the committee on February 17.”

Bruesewitz acknowledged in his statement that he was subpoenaed because he “was not interested in playing (the committee’s) game.” And while his position hasn’t changed that “the committee is illegitimate and unconstitutional,” he decided to invoke his Fifth Amendment just after “much prayer and legal advice.” He acknowledged in his remarks that the Fifth Amendment “contemplated exactly this type of situation – a situation in which citizens could protect themselves from excessive power grab or abuse by Congress during a hearing in Congress.”

In response to Gooden’s invitation, Bruesewitz expressed that he was “thrilled to see” President-elect Donald Trump’s Electoral College and popular vote victory be certified, and described it as a “tremendous honor.”

“Trump’s victory in the Electoral College (and the popular vote!) was historic, and I am thrilled to witness its certification,” Bruesewitz said in a statement. “This will be the first time I measure the Capitol on January 6th. It’s a huge honor!
