Brazil vice president calls on Bolsonaro to rein in sons

Brazilian Vice President Hamilton Mourao said on Thursday that the president will have to rein in his sons after one of them called a minister a liar on social media, exacerbating tensions within the government.

In an interview with Reuters, Mourao also said President Jair Bolsonaro has yet to decide whether Secretary General Gustavo Bebianno should quit over accusations of misuse of campaign funds in the October election.
