Joyce Vance looks at what Alabama Republican senator Turbeville is doing, holding up more than 250 military promotions and, as of yesterday, causing the Marines to be without a Senate-confirmed commandant. Tuberville opposes the military's policy permitting enlistees to access reproductive health care of ouf state when necessary.

Republicans as a party supporting the military? Hardly, she concludes.

"That a Republican is undermining the military belies the party’s traditional claim to be stronger on military issues than the Democrats. So does the attack of House Republicans on our nation’s key law enforcement entities—the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation—after traditionally insisting their party works to defend 'law and order.'”

@wdlindsy Today’s rogue, lawless, end justifies the means GOP politics. The end? Win at all costs They saw where a substantial % of their base went, orbit and they followed. The Joint Chiefs told Donny to stuff it in 2020 regarding Marshall Law and the Justice Dept attacking is insufferable. A lot of them hate his guts because he is destroyed the GOP as it existed before the pestilence, but they are now tied to his bed face down serving at his pleasure. 😳
