Later that day, Tuberville addressed concerns regarding alleged fraud in Minnesota’s child care system. In a tweet posted at 22:26 UTC, he stated: “Taxpayer-funded, Somalian-run ‘child care centers’ in Minnesota are one of the BIGGEST SCANDALS in American taxpayer history.

The following day, on January 18, Tuberville shared a brief message referencing his religious beliefs: “Christ is King. We must never forget that.”
