In case you missed it, one of Alabama's Senators, Tommy Tuberville,
whose entire resume' of government experience prior to winning
the seat was as a football coach, is currently on a mission
to block promotions in all three branches of our military
because, he says, he's against the Pentagon's choice-friendly
stance towards its female soldiers. The Pentagon is not budging
from its position. No way. No how, and Tuberville knows this.
So what is Tuberville's deal?
Take a moment to recall that immediately after Trump lost
the election in 2020 he began mysteriously firing Pentagon
officials, including Defense Secretary Mark Esper, and replacing
them with loyalists. It was a pointless exercise that puzzled
observers…. until January 6th occurred.
So perhaps Tuberville's position is similar to Mitch McConnell's
holding open of Judge Scalia's Supreme Court seat, as he
often said (and I'm paraphrasing) "Until a Republican
president could fill it". (A ludicrous pipe-dream at
the time of Scalia's death as Trump was then way behind Clinton
in the polls.)
Therefore, is Tuberville's real goal just to create huge,
gaping holes in military leadership until Republicans take
back the reins of government and then install party-loyal,
fascist-friendly faces as heads of our military before the
institution of a full-on, unitary-lunatic banana republic
begins?
No such conjecture in this regard could be any stranger than
the history we all just survived from 2017-2021. As has been
said many times already, January 6th was a test-drive for
the next attempt. Whatever Tuberville's reason, and it could
just be that nefarious, we should never stop slapping that
little racist carpetbagger.
Addendum: The GOP currently has less of a chance of snagging
the House, Senate and White House in 2024 than I do of flying
to Mars by flapping my arms real fast. But that fact doesn't
stop these moronic, entitled, authoritarian christo-fascists
from dreaming and scheming.
