Air Force Secretary destroys Tuberville as inexperienced, naive - National Zero

“It’s totally unprecedented,” Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall says about Alabama Republican football coach (who doesn’t want to be called “Senator” Tommy Tuberville’s ongoing block of promotions for flag officers because of his ignorance of military policy regarding medical care reimbursements.  “The Senate routinely confirms general officers and lower-ranking officers by general consent, but the way the process works, as we’re seeing here, a single Senator can stop that.  It’s never been done before.  Senator Tuberville has no experience in the military.  This is his first time, I think, in public service, and I don’t think he appreciates how much of an impact this is having and how negative an impact it is for the military.”
