Establishment Insanely Claims Top General’s Health Is Imperiled Because of Senator’s Principled Stand Against the Pentagon’s Unlawful Pro-Abortion Policies
Leading senators are holding Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., to account for the health woes of the newly confirmed Marine commandant, whose nomination — along with hundreds of other military jobs — was blocked for months by Tuberville.
Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Jack Reed, D-R.I., and Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., both suggested on Tuesday that Tuberville’s hold may have led to the recent emergency hospitalization of Marine Corps Commandant Eric Smith.
Noting that Smith has seemingly “suffered a serious setback,” Blumenthal told reporters, “There is the possibility that he may not be returning” to his job. The senator said the episode “just reemphasizes how the Tuberville hold is a desperate threat to our national security.”
“I’m just really frustrated and angry that this hold is continuing,” Blumenthal said, vowing to press Tuberville “even more vigorously.”
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday said he continues to believe Tuberville’s holds on senior military promotions in protest to a Pentagon abortion policy is “a bad idea.” (Read more from “Establishment Insanely Claims Top General’s Health Is Imperiled Because of Senator’s Principled Stand Against the Pentagon’s Unlawful Pro-Abortion Policies” HERE)
