According to the Austin 360, Nelson's publicist verified that the tweet did come from Nelson.
Nelson was interviewed by Rolling Stone last week, when he voiced his concern about the Trump administration's zero-tolerance policy.
"What's going on at our Southern border is outrageous. Christians everywhere should be up in arms." Nelson told Rolling Stone.
