“Six of the world’s largest defense contractors – BAE Systems, Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Lockheed Martin, L3Harris Technologies, Leidos, and Parsons Corporation – have given political donations to Tuberville since he stated his intention to implement the hold."

History will record Tuberville as a low life obstructionist dim wit, no matter how many lobbyists line his deep pockets.

I certainly hope Alabama/Florida are proud of themselves for voting this piece of shite into office. The best thing that could have happened to that feckless state would have been to have moved any military base or installation of the federal government out of it. If our insurrectionist president should finally be shown a prison door, maybe Alabama will be given a chance to “fix” their Tuberville problem too if only they will. The hate and fear are thick down there.

I will remember him as the co conspirator that took a call from the Insurrectionist In Chief, during the Insurrection, and then tried to (in furtherance) delay the Congressional proceeding as requested.

As far as I am concerned "Coach Tuberville" can suck it. What he did was inexcusable.

Tuberville is a small, weak wretched little man. How was he allowed to hold the Senate and military hostage for so long? Disgusting in every way.

Another “never served” asshole harming our military. Defense contractors rewarding him for obstruction likely create death & destruction abroad whilst also harming workers at home. At same time over charging the government. Remember Cheney’s Halliburton’s corrupt & unsafe conduct. These contractors profit at the expense of American troupes and taxpayers. Halliburton was operating in Russia as well for the saudis. Halliburton as recent as 2021 being sued by the US for violating patents related to electricity fracking. They all gift politicians supporting their greed and corruption.

He’s such a flipping weasel. I truly appreciated your coverage on this issue.

I still think that there is/was a bigger goal here, namely Project 2025 (it's horrifying and I urge everyone to read up on it as much as they can). He is still maintaining, as you noted, the hold on the highest level military officers, and I think that there is a connection between the two things.
