Tuberville failed to mention that he’s personally prevented hundreds of officers from being promoted because he disagrees with a 2022 Pentagon policy.
Ah, the old chestnut of causing a problem, and then blaming it on someone else. Republican leadership is a Jonestown suicide cult, and they want all of us to drink the kool-aid.
Can he find out? Please? He’s been fucking around for all this time. Someone let him find out.
The purpose of conservatives preventing promotions is so tRump can install/promote his hand-picked leadership within the military when the time comes. This will allow him to use the military against U.S. citizens if/when he becomes president.
When he tried to use the military against U.S. citizens during his previous term, he was stopped by military leadership. They refused. Next time, he will have complete loyalty. Conservatives are setting the stage for him.
This is what they should be voicing in the articles and Democrats should be calling him out for it and forcing Republicans to remove him.
Because your exactly right. Not only did Trump demand the military anytime there was a protest he also wanted to do stupid shit. Like tanks driving down the white house road during one of his speeches. They stop that too.
Trump talks about how much he loath the military because they wouldn’t bend to his will.
Between project 2025 and this they are making sure Donald Trump dictatorship goes through and his will or the will of the real GOP of fascism is realized. 50 years conservatives have been planning this take over and if we don’t vote for Biden and he wins. Then Trump does and America is fucked.
Then it will be civil war because I will refuse to live in a country under a christofascist dictatorship run by Trump.
Between project 2025 and this
Make no mistake, this is part of Project 2025. All Americans should be terrified of the GOP’s long term plans.
If you don’t know what Project 2025 is, educate yourself. We’re watching our Republic die in front of our eyes.
Like tanks driving down the white house road during one of his speeches. They stop that too.
Mostly because the tanks are way too heavy for any road in DC. Seeing one crush through Pennsylvania Ave and into the metro underneath during his speech would have been even funnier than Putin and his one-tank parade.
Yes I heard why they said no. But he was still pissed about it and wanted those tanks. Wonder if he do it again with his new military. Have tanks rolling through American cities. Especially blue ones.
So? It’s not like Pro America Republicans will vote him out even though he’s causing the United States to have the weakest military he’s ever seen!
I’ve heard it theorized that the strategy is intended to starve the military of officers so that Trump can fill the vacancies with loyalists when he regains the White House. Essentially, it is the military equivalent of Project 2025.
It’s not a bug. It’s a feature.
I hate that you’re probably right.
They did not with the Scrotus, they’re doing it with the military
What a sack of shit. Fuck you, Alabama.
This is the best version of the ‘Eric Andre shooting someone that he then blames for being shot’ meme I think I’ve ever, ever seen.
This football coach from the ivy leagues has the audacity to pretend to know what military service is like without having educated himself at the bare minimum nor actually serving to provide a serious opinion on the matter.
The fact this incompetent malcontent continues to receive the support of his constituents is truly representative of how unbelievably fucked humanity is.
AL resident here - he doesn’t get as much direct support as you might think. Most of the state votes straight red without even reading the names, so he only needs enough support/bullying competition to get through the primaries.
This football coach from the ivy leagues has the audacity to pretend to know what military service is like without having educated himself at the bare minimum nor actually serving to provide a serious opinion on the matter.
I remember when McCain was the last living member of the legislative branch to have served or had family (his son) actively serving in the military. I fully agree with you, when this shitstain decided to make a remark like that, it needs brought up that he is wholly ignorant about the US military and is just parroting the party line in some kind of weak ass political jab. He’s a fuckstick, and so are his voters.
Ivy league? Ivy League doesn’t mean prestigious, and even if it did, it would not describe any of Tuberville’s institutions.
More a reference to his inherited wealth and social stature as opposed to just his education and work background.
I am heavily implying that the man himself is worth less than trash and he only has the job because of nepotism
Dude, fuck you. That’s two things that I learn about Tuberville because you don’t know what words mean.
Tuberville did not benefit from neopotism nor is he Ivy League.
He’s a piece of shit apart from these buzzwords you’re misusing.
My brother in Krishna, why are you so angry?
You should probably work on your literacy friend.
I don’t know the word for phenomenon that anyone who achieves fame somehow has a shot in republican politics (Tuberville, Kari Lake, Mehmet Oz, the Obvious, etc.), but nepotism isn’t it.
Maybe you’re not pissed that Kushner was on the federal payroll, but if you are, calling everything “nepotism” is playing into the hands of people who are trying to keep your mind spongy.
This is the sort of thing that happens when you have people who proclaim that government doesn’t work in that government. They say the system is broken, and hope you don’t notice that they have been deliberately breaking it for years.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville said in a recent interview that he believes the US currently has “the weakest military that we’ve had in probably a year in my lifetime.”
Tuberville made his comments Monday evening after Newsmax’s Eric Bolling mentioned the US military’s spending on diversity training.
While Tuberville piled on President Joe Biden and his administration for what he considers to be a “self-inflicted” disaster, he didn’t mention the outsized role effect he’s had in 2023 on the nation’s defense forces.
Following the Pentagon’s decision to update its policies to allow service members to get reimbursed for out-of-state expenses for abortion care, Tuberville has singlehandedly prevented hundreds of military officers from getting promoted via a vote on the Senate floor.
Senate Republicans in recent weeks have repeatedly attempted to push through more individual votes on the chamber floor, only to be prevented more than 60 times by the former football coach.
Rick Scott, Josh Hawley, Mike Lee, and JD Vance, successfully lobbied Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to oppose the resolution.
The original article contains 383 words, the summary contains 171 words. Saved 55%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Translation: Weaker = can’t brain wash them into mindless murder machines like we use to be able to.
Yeah, I hate those sociopaths who are all like " if you treat me with respect I’ll treat you with respect."
When what they really mean is that if you treat them as an unquestioned god, they won’t be as nasty as they could be.
This is where Clarence the Angel shows him how much better the world would be had he never been born.
Idiocracy timeline
“You keep hitting yourself” says older brother who forces younger brother’s arm to keep hitting himself.
Yup. Try being human. If you say you’re willing to put aside the money once and that you’re genuine about anything and you’re automatically a narcissistic partisan who is at risk of terrorism or conspiracy.
Yep. Just that lots of republicans aren’t being genuine. A lot of them are being christo-fascist, and they want to bend everyone to their will.
This is why I pray to Satan and God so that you get blessings going both ways hahaha
He obviously doesn’t work for America like so many other Republicans. Fuck Alabama. Fuck Auburn too
Always support a fuck Auburn even in serious discussions. But dont let Ole Miss off the hook, if they never employed him he never gets hired by the weagles, I hated him back then because he was a smarmy prick. Didn’t think I could hate him more to be honest
Edit: for clarification I’ve never been an Alabama fan or citizen either
You have to be related to Alabama to fuck it.
Goddamn I could feel the burn from this comment on the west coast.
Snowing in Canada and I felt the warmth of this burn
God, I wish it had, but this waste of skin is lying again.
