Trial Balloon · Ep. 189: Navigating the Nonsense

Biden Escalates Clash with Tommy Tuberville

July 29, 2023 · 10:39 am ET · Leave a Comment

“President Biden is sharply escalating his criticism of Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville, highlighting his blockade of military nominations and using him to criticize other right-wing Republicans he characterizes as extreme, obstructionist and willing to jeopardize the country’s national security,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Biden: “Something dangerous is happening. The Republican Party used to always support the military, but today, they are undermining the military. The senior senator from Alabama, who claims to support our troops, is now blocking more than 300 military nominations with his extreme political agenda.”
