Tommy Tuberville: Proud White Nationalist!

Why apologize, we know you are not sincere.

Ice Cube, Ye, Kodak Black and folks like then don't care about white nationalists.

Cube's now a civil rights leader according to white leftists and far right extremists.

Palling around with conspiracy theorists like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Joe Rogan and Dennis Kucinich. Secretly working with Washed Up 45 and still promoting this Black Contract for America. He ain't too concerned about Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) saying he's proud to be a white nationalists.

He ain't concerned about the Washed Up 45 2024 campaign catering to the noise.

Cube is still dogging on Vice President Kamala Harris. 

Republicans had to distance themselves from the remarks made by Tuberville. The Alabama senator who once was a coach for NCAA-1 football teams has doubled down on his white nationalist remarks as well as his stalling of nominees to the Pentagon.

President Joe Biden’s pick to be the nation’s top military officer warned senators on Tuesday that an indefinite blockade of senior officer promotions could cause a brain drain in the ranks. Tuberville's delaying the filling of hundreds of senior positions has left the Marine Corps without a leader for the first time in a century.

Testifying at his Senate Armed Services Committee confirmation hearing to be chair of the Joint Chiefs, Air Force Gen. C.Q. Brown said the effect of a prolonged hold on general and flag officers — launched by Tuberville in protest of Pentagon abortion policies — could have far-reaching impacts on the armed forces that go beyond the officers now delayed.

Tuberville was asked whether he believed white nationalists should be allowed to serve in the military. Tuberville said the Biden administration "call[s] them that. I call them Americans." Later that day, his Congressional staff released a statement that said Tuberville "was being skeptical of the notion that there are white nationalists in the military, not that he believes they should be in the military."

But U.S. military leaders have said white nationalism and white supremacy in the ranks are growing. 

For example, an October 2020 Pentagon report said there were "white supremacist inroads in the U.S. military". Much independent reporting indicates this as well.

Following the interview, Tuberville's brother Charles commented that he felt “compelled to distance himself” from his brother and his brother's "ignorant, hateful rants", calling Tommy Tuberville's comments "vile rhetoric".

Asked about Tuberville’s comments about white nationalism in the military, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) issued a forceful denunciation of white supremacy at his weekly leadership conference. 

“White supremacy is simply unacceptable in the military and in our whole country,” McConnell told reporters.  

McConnell’s top deputy, Senate Republican Whip John Thune (R-SD), said there’s no room for white nationalists in the GOP or the military.  

“I just think there isn’t any place for it. We are a country obviously that has built around a set of principles, that’s welcoming,” he said.  

But Thune didn’t want to comment on Tuberville’s argument on CNN that white nationalists aren’t necessarily racist.  

“That’s not for me to decide,” he said.  

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), who has Cuban heritage, said “ethnic nationalism is un-American and I think it would be problematic in the military.” 

“My definition of a white nationalist is someone that believes that America belongs to white people. That’s not American, that’s un-American, and that would be a problem in the military,” he said.  

Tuberville’s Alabama colleague, Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL), also called out Tuberville, telling a reporter for HuffPost: “White supremacy and racism have absolutely no place in our country. Period. The end.”  

Tuberville sparked controversy earlier this year when asked whether white nationalists should be able to serve in the military.
