Tuberville’s Brother Distances Himself

The brother of Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) is speaking out on social media, saying he is “compelled to distance” himself from some of the lawmaker’s recent statements, AL.com reports.

Said Charles Tuberville, on Facebook: “Due to recent statements by him promoting racial stereotypes, white nationalism and other various controversial topics, I feel compelled to distance myself from his ignorant, hateful rants… What I’m trying to say is that, I DO NOT agree with any of the vile rhetoric coming out of his mouth. Please don’t confuse my brother with me.”
