Joe Biden Tears Tuberville Apart For ‘Pointlessly’ Undermining Military Readiness

After singlehandedly blocking lots of of army promotions for greater than 10 months, Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) turned tail Tuesday and lifted the maintain he’d positioned as a result of he disagreed with the Pentagon’s abortion coverage.

And the White House pounced.

In an uncharacteristically forceful assertion, President Joe Biden assailed the Alabama Republican for the politically motivated maintain.

“In the end, this was all pointless,” Biden mentioned, reflecting on the greater than 400 overdue confirmations that left important nationwide safety positions unstaffed.

“Senator Tuberville and the Republicans who stood with him needlessly hurt hundreds of servicemembers and military families and threatened our national security – all to push a partisan agenda.

“I hope no one forgets what he did.”

Tuberville’s antics denied promised promotions to service members who had nothing to do with the Pentagon’s coverage on journey for abortion care.

“Our service members are the backbone of our country and deserve to receive the pay and promotions they have earned,” Biden mentioned, accusing Tuberville of undermining army readiness and morale.

“Those who serve this nation deserve better,” he added. “Thankfully, military leaders will finally be able to take their next post.”
