Republicans confront Tuberville over military holds in extraordinary showdown on Senate floor

Republican senators have angrily challenged Sen. Tommy Tuberville on his blockade of almost 400 military officers. They took over the Senate floor for hours on Wednesday evening to call for individual confirmation votes after a monthslong stalemate.

Tuberville said Wednesday that there is “zero chance” he will drop the holds.
