Tuberville, who’s singlehandedly blocked hundreds of military promotions in protest over the Pentagon’s abortion policies, said he’s not going to change his mind and doesn’t care that people aren’t being promoted.

After the US Supreme Court reversed decades of precedent in overturning its decision in the Roe v. Wade abortion access case in 2022, the Pentagon announced its plan to reimburse service members who need to travel out-of-state to receive abortion services.

Tuberville, a Republican senator out of Alabama, took exception to the decision and said he’d use his power to stymie any military nominations and promotions he could. Since February, he’s blocked more than 300 promotions.

    Remember when Biden was speaking before Congress and mentioned cleaning up the toxic ‘burn pits’ that have harmed veterans, and MTG and Boebert stood up and started booing him?

      I mean those shit monkeys were booing and being trash in general, it was just poor timing for their dumbasses that they started booing about something that actually helps veterans.
