Doug Jones: Sen. Tuberville's verbal gymnastics when asked about white nationalism - Velshi - MSNBC



Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville this week criticized the Pentagon for its efforts to purge white nationalists from its military ranks. Referring to white nationalists in the military, he said “I call them Americans.” He then spent the week trying to clarify his comments but only added to the confusion.

His predecessor, former Senator Doug Jones, says it’s difficult to believe that Tuberville doesn’t understand what a white nationalist stands for. “There is no one that is paying attention in America today that should not know what white nationalism means.” - Aired on 05/14/2023.

IS AN ACT OF TREASON. He is an ignorant white trash moron. A poster boy for conservative values. A cancer attacking democracy. But he do love the stupid folk of Abalama (my spelling) who voted for him and who are working to destroy the best country they Will ever live in.

Exactly why the current electorate elected a former football coach to replace him.

One of Doug Jones' most prominent cases was the successful prosecution of two Ku Klux Klan members for the 1963 Birmingham church bombing that killed four African-American girls.
