The Woodhouse brothers are at it again.
It’s not just voting rights advocates who were upset by a North Carolina Republican’s memo to election boards officials pushing new voting restrictions. N.C. GOP Executive Director Dallas Woodhouse’s own brother called him out on it, blasting the memo as “blatantly racist and completely disgusting” on Twitter.
.@DallasWoodhouse this is blatantly racist and completely disgusting. You should ashamed of yourself. https://t.co/wYdtXiyRID

Brad Woodhouse is a Democratic operative who is president of the progressive group Americans United for Change and head of the pro-Hillary Clinton super PAC Correct the Record.
This is not the first time the family drama over the Woodhouses’ opposing political values has spilled over into the public. When both brothers were on C-SPAN in 2014 to talk about their documentary Woodhouse Divided, their mother Joy called in unplanned to complain about how all their fighting ruined family holidays.
“I don’t know many families that are fighting at Thanksgiving. I was very glad that this Thanksgiving was a year that you two were supposed to go to your in-laws,” she said. “And I’m hoping you’ll have some of this out of your system when you come here for Christmas. I would really like a peaceful Christmas.”
Corrected: Brad Woodhouse is no longer head of American Bridge 21st Century. This story has been corrected to reflect that he is the president of Correct the Record, a Hillary Clinton-supporting super PAC.
There probably is one but right now I don’t think there is any video out there that impresses me as much as Brad Woodhouse’s ‘Oh God, it’s Mom.’ If there is a man out there whose blood does not run cold when his mother comes on the phone with that tone in her voice, I do not want to know him.
The expression on their faces was just perfect.
Seriously. They went from middle-aged political pundits to little kids being asked ‘who ate all the cookies’ in about 11 seconds.
I wonder which one she wonders how she could have raised a son like that.
Also, though,I wonder at what point it will be possible to ask for a contempt citation, because it seems pretty clear that NC has no intention of complying with the court’s ruling.
The progressive son was adopted from a socialist country.
