SLCW💥<p>Carpetbagging Coach <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/FoghornLeghorn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FoghornLeghorn</span></a> continues his assault on America's <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/military" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>military</span></a> readiness. This time, he's holding up a key promotion because of a bullshit story he himself invented to justify stopping the promotion. At some point, this clownish political novice got the idea that the way to be a good Senator is to harm our military. And it's been his go-to move ever since.</p><p><a href="https://newsie.social/tags/TommyTuberville" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TommyTuberville</span></a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/TubervilleIsAntiAmerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TubervilleIsAntiAmerican</span></a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/TubervilleIsATraitor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TubervilleIsATraitor</span></a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/RepublicanScum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepublicanScum</span></a> <a href="https://newsie.social/tags/VoteBlue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VoteBlue</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/tommy-tuberville-lloyd-austin-military-b2610488.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">independent.co.uk/news/world/a</span><span class="invisible">mericas/us-politics/tommy-tuberville-lloyd-austin-military-b2610488.html</span></a></p>
