Senator Tommy Tuberville announced today he would end his hold on all promotions "three stars and below".

He will retain his indefinite hold on 4 star general/admiral promotions until after the 2024 elections, so that they may properly be vetted as personally loyal to Donald J. Trump should Trump win the election.

Heil Trump! Heil Victory!

So he will hold until a Cheeto victory or until after the 2024 election?
 
with his history of blocking confirmations and denigrating those who've served, and the fact he 'sits on the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee and three related sub-committees,' tubby's allegiances seem a tad confused as he mixes up the USA with Russia:

“The United States has sent $211 BILLION of your tax dollars to Ukraine, 4X as much as the rest of the world COMBINED,” Tuberville wrote on the social media platform X earlier this week, only to receive a “Community Notes” correction.

That correction reads: “The $211 billion figure is the amount Russia has spent on the war as of February 2024. Senator Tuberville appears to have confused the United States with Russia.”

It points to a Reuters article that explains, “Russia has probably spent up to $211 billion in equipping, deploying and maintaining its troops for operations in Ukraine.”


BBC Verify senior journalist Shayan Sardarizadeh responded, writing: “It’s genuinely odd for a sitting US senator to be this wrong about such an important foreign policy issue.”
i think the word the journalist should be using here is "incompetent"
