Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) announced Tuesday that he would lift his blanket hold on military promotions, ending a nearly 10-month standoff over a Biden administration abortion policy that made the former football coach the target of bipartisan ire.

Thank goodness.  My husband has spent more occasions cussing over this issue than any others I’ve witnessed over our 40+ years of marriage.

He's releasing holds on anyone three stars and below.  This makes me think that the previous theory was correct.  This was more about leaving the seats open for Trump loyalists than it was about abortion.  He still wants the hold left on the 10 nominations for the upper tier officers.

Wow, Markwayne actually made a sensible point. Mark down this day in history. 

 

[GreyhoundFan]

I would love to know what dirt TFG and/or Vlad have on Lindsey. 

 

[GreyhoundFan]

I wish people running for elected office would have to pass basic civics tests.

[GreyhoundFan]

Cotton is not only nasty and rude, but he's ignorant as well.

 

[GreyhoundFan]

I love Fetterman:

 

[GreyhoundFan]

Marco is such an asshole.

 

[GreyhoundFan]

More performance art from GQP senators. 

[GreyhoundFan]

Once again, I love Fetterman.

 

[GreyhoundFan]

Lindsey is seriously weird. 

 

[GreyhoundFan]

Marco is displaying the typical GQP “I got mine, fuck you” mentality:

I’m confused. If he doesn’t think any laws should be passed, why are we paying him the big bucks?

I'd like to know how he thinks society would function without any laws.

Has he made an error in reading the memo saying they want to go back to the 1950's and is he aiming to go back to the wild west era of the 1850's, when the law of the land was whatever the person carrying the biggest gun said it was?

[Maggie Mae]

He knows you have to pass legislation to repeal a law, right?

I doubt it. Thinking and knowledge aren't his strong suits. He's more concerned with capitulating to Putin.

[GreyhoundFan]

Tuberville is not just an idiotic asshole, he’s a Russian asset:

Am I the only one who wants to pronounce it “TUBE-er-ville”?

Actually, I prefer to pronounce it "ASS-hole".

[GreyhoundFan]

I agree with Fetterman:

[GreyhoundFan]

Senator numbnuts is whining again. 

 

He’s another example of why it is so important for the Dems to hold the senate. If the GQP is in charge, his dumb crap will be considered.
