A Republican congressman in Arizona is firing back at six of his siblings who have urged voters in a TV ad to oust him from office in November.

Republican U.S. Rep. Paul Gosar on Saturday responded to the unusual ad being aired by his opponent in the race for the seat in northwestern Arizona.
    
Gosar says in a series of Twitter posts that his brothers and sisters who endorsed Democrat David Brill are disgruntled liberals from out of state who hate President Donald Trump and put ideology before family.
    
The siblings say Gosar has broken with the family's values. They did not elaborate.
    
They previously condemned the congressman's false accusation that wealthy Democratic donor George Soros was a Nazi collaborator in World War II.
