Blockade Ends

Under pressure from Senate Republicans, Florida Man and Alabama senator, Tommy Tuberville abruptly agreed to drop his objections to eleven remaining four star officer promotions.

Following almost a year of blocking military promotions over Pentagon policy ensuring service members could receive time off and travel expense reimbursement to seek abortion or other reproductive health services in another location Tuberville performed an about face.

The promotions were swiftly approved yesterday by unanimous consent - allowing the Senate to wrap up this important business before the holiday break.

I don't know if this is further evidence that you shouldn't take hostages you aren't prepared to shoot or poetic justice for forcing the US military to fight his culture war.  Either way, coach Tuberville is a dick.
