Basically the title, I think Sen. Tuberville’s stated reason for holding up many key military appointments is to ensure Trump loyalists are appointed to those positions when the next coup occurs.

Wokeness or abortion concerns are just the justification, but if he wanted to punish the military, he could just as easily do it by holding up appropriations bills.

This is just the continuation of Republican policy on the Supreme Court, delay using any reason at all, then appoint your own people even if it goes against your previous logic.

So unless you want dictatorship in 2028, vote democrat in 2024.

I'm not one to subscribe to conspiracy theories, but this wouldn't surprise me one bit if it were proven to be true.
