Tuberville is looking Trumpier by the minute

Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville, the Republican from Alabama who is blocking the appointments of hundreds of Defense Department personnel, did not serve in the military. However, that doesn’t stop Tuberville from making big claims about his commitment to military families and to veterans. In his Senate biography, Tuberville says his motivation for being on the Armed Services and Veterans Affairs committee is “to give back to the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces.” That, in turn, stems from the “legacy of his father, a highly decorated WWII veteran and Purple Heart recipient.”
