Right now on the Senate floor: @LindseyGrahamSC is turning against @TTuberville
@SenTuberville for his holds on blanket Senate confirmation of military promotions over the DOD funding abortion travel.


quote:

Next, @SenToddYoung says he's got "a lot of respect" for Tuberville and says he's "pro-life" but says he disagrees with the "tactics" of Tuberville holding up blanket Senate confirmation promotions for DOD's abortion policy. Says it "doesn't make sense."



quote:

To no one's surprise, @MittRomney is also turning against Tuberville. "It's simply...an abuse of the power we have as senators."

quote:



quote:

Romney asks Tuberville if he would consider am alternative, and Tuberville responds back the Biden Pentagon has been unwilling to negotiate with him.


quote:


@SenDanSullivan calls Tuberville "100% wrong" for his hold on blanket Senate confirmations of military promotions over the Pentagon's pro-abortion policy.

I have never seen Sullivan so animated over something.


quote:

Sullivan is literally yelling over this.


quote:

Tuberville corrects Sullivan and says he never called anyone up for promotion a "desk jockey."


quote:

@SenJoniErnst now turning against Tuberville.

Calls for the "intestinal fortitude" to do what is right.

I'm hearing McConnell deputies and allies, including Lindsay Graham, Joni Ernst, Todd Young, and Dan Sullivan, told colleagues today they're planning an attack on Tommy Tuberville's hold on military promotions, modeled after Elizabeth Warren's attack a few months ago. Tuberville has blocked unaccountable, review-free unanimous consent for military promotions -- all due to the Pentagon's completely illegal abortion funding policy. During his hold on this easy approval (that would otherwise occur without even a vote) it's been discovered that more than 40% of the nominees are beholden to DEI and other left-wing ideology at odds with an effective fighting force. The plan to run interference for Biden admin and its woke Pentagon is reportedly scheduled for 6p tonight. Just fyi. We'll see who exactly is involved and what happens.

Tuberville is an idiot and will accomplish nothing with this.

The people of Alabama who voted for a football coach to be their Senator are to blame.

He's accomplishing absolutely nothing, outside of preventing appointments.

Stand strong for what? Whatever policy he is ostensibly protesting is not stopped by his actions.

Looks like it's already accomplished a lot with all the DEI sycophants being exposed.

This was one of my favorite retard narratives during the Speaker fiasco.

Idiots: "The side we hate was EXPOSED"!!!!!@!@!@!@!"

Everyone else: "What are you even talking about? No one who didn't already agree with you had their minds changed by your actions."

Very meaningful. He's really delivering for the people of Alabama on important issues.

He's absolutely not just pandering for fundraising.

You know, being that you’re so brilliant and have all the answers, it begs the question as to why YOU don’t run for office.

You could go up there and set them all straight.

I wasn't a popular football coach and I'm unwilling to pander to the lowest common denominator on every possible issue.

So sorry, I cannot run for office.

Exactly. You would have to be a total idiot to be against transparency.

football coaches are not people?

Yeah, I doubt you’ve ever been a popular anything.
