GOP Sen. Tommy Tuberville signaled that he is backing off of his hold on all top military nominees – as soon as next week – and will instead be focusing his blockade on a smaller number of so-called “woke,” nominees. The move comes after bipartisan pressure to cease his blanket hold on military promotions over reproductive rights policy.

    @Neblib unfortunately he is not up for reelection until 2026.

    Who knows what the political landscape will look like three years from now, but the GOP has gone so far off the deep end that I wouldn’t be surprised if he ran unprimaried.

    Also, in 2020 Tuberville defeated democratic incumbent Doug Jones 60.1% (1,392,076) to 39.7% (920,478).

    I would eat shit if a democrat was able to dethrone him 2026 lol.
