LoL ask her why she didn't stand up for the service men and women when they were forced to choose their career or their health...
She should just RESIGN, she’s wasted so much time & money with her constant ignorance and incompetence…..maybe a reservation will take her! Extortion? LOL!
Exactly - she is not worthy of even listening to, much less agreeing with. I'm sure the senator has his reasons and your right she wasn't abdamn bit worried when they were leaving the military in droves due to the jab!
#facts
1000% THIS!!
Who votes for these ghastly people.
Military Leadership needs immediate change in direction and priority.
100 percent
HelLo, Lol i Borrowed Your Baked OatmeaL recipe, Thanks Much✔️.
You mean Repub. senators " needs immediate change in direction and priority." Fixed if for you.
They are democrats. Most generals have more money than the presidents combined!! Let them live as Taxpayers who cannot afford to eat
Full bird colonels are not hurting for money, unlike the enlisted members
It's not about the money, the postings, readiness.
@@jeanlagoueyte8124 Baloney! It is about retiring with a higher military pension.
Senator Tuberville will not release these holds, when he took office he swore to uphold the laws of the country. The military exemption of pregnant soldiers to have abortions, travel to other states to have an abortion is AGAINST THE LAW. Senator Tuberville is demanding the law be upheld. Very simple.
Good for Tommy Tuberville!
Someone who actually knows what he's talking about, and not the elite. He's doing his job 👍👍👍
Totally Agree with Senator Tuberville!! It was a problem when I was on active duty. Also saw an increase of O-6 and Flag promotions to more females, and, ethnically diverse officers that were more compliant with the narrative of diversity than actual true leadership and combat readiness!!!
I imagine Fauxcahontis is demanding priority for her fellow native American’s military promotions like those she received at her law school. This imposter owes the whole Indian nation an enormous apology as well as her constituents on whom she perpetrated a fraud.
She should be expelled for fraud. She defrauded the American people, the Indian Nation and the United States of America. She's a felon ...a criminal whether she's been charged or not everybody knows what she did ...I don't understand how she faces the public at all after being found out ..
An obvious fraud. Why would anyone believe anything she says again? It's like we're under a spell. The whole nation.
Do you mean promotions for Indians, or femiMarxist women?
Her supporters don't care about any of that. They think she's a pillar of morality 😂😂
@@johnh.tuomala4379, from what I know of the fraud from Cambridge, Massachusetts I would reckon it could be either or both. It always make me wonder who’s worse the lying, corrupt, sleaze ball or politician or the voters that keep returning them to their pot of gold (taxpayer’s gold that is)?
Hey Elizabeth have you been to the border?
She'll probably want to give Cartel generals a raise to.
OLD VETS say Bravo Tuberviille.
Being ex-miltary, I am glad thus man kept his word and stood for life and principles.
They throw out “it’s a threat to National security” about as often as they do “racist” or “racism”.
This administration is a threat to our national security
Maybe because ‘they’ are correct!
@@francesbatycki404 No, they're not. Senator Tuberville will not release these holds, when he took office he swore to uphold the laws of the country. The military exemption of pregnant soldiers to have abortions, travel to other states to have an abortion is AGAINST THE LAW. Senator Tuberville is demanding the law be upheld. Very simple.
Let's not kid ourselves. Senator Warren does not care one bit about us Military folk.
according to her the military massacred her tribe.
@@josephfarber6027 😂😢 That's funny shit
She does when she's on the warpath as leader of the proud Pretendian tribe but only to scalp you lol
Sweet home Alabama Tommy you are amazing.
God bless you sir for the strength you show
God bless you senator for being a real man with a real voice and real concern with the real facts
Thank you Tommy!!!
….As an Alabama native , I’m very proud of the representation of Tommy Tuberville …if only we had more like him .
The only thing that is going to stop our military is the week minded people like Lizzy. I've never seen in the 30 years that my husband was in our military a promotion stop them from doing the Job that need to be done. Not even shortages of equipment for the safety of our men and woman. Prayers for our military and our children!
God Bless America
God bless Alabama
God bless common sense
God bless know how
God bless Senator Tommy
You sir give me hope
Will keep Alabama and you in
my prayers as well as all of America.
You are fighting the spiritual war
The facts show we do not need any more admirable as we do not need any more Chiefs we do not need any more leaders we need the leaders who have the jobs to actually do the jobs and stop passing the jobs around like a piece of paper or hot potato.
And those who have been in charge who think they deserve a raise
Shame on you until America is on his feet again nobody should be getting raises except for the police
Deprived pay? She needs to look up how much O-6's make. They aren't struggling.
As a retired Marine, I say stand your ground Senator. Make those woke Senior officers retire. Promote compitence only. No more desk nockey flag promotions!
How is there an effort to promote incompetence? Simply because you don't like that military leaders are fine with whomever is willing to die for their country serving in the military? Well, that's brilliant Marine. Just Brilliant!
competence. Thank you for your service, and sensibility.
@@frsmith5069 and if you don't see what's going on in our military then you must support that crap...
@@frsmith5069 the left is weakening our military. We have to put a stop to the left's nefarious shenanigans.
@@frsmith5069 "How is there an effort to promote incompetence" Shall we start a list?
-Biden and Kamala are statistically the worst President/Vice President this country has ever seen.
-Dept. of Energy hire is a nonbinary drag queen that thinks he's a woman (fired for stealing luggage at an airport).
-U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps gave the rank of General to a man that thinks he is a woman.
I'll stop here because I think you get the point. Let me know if you feel the need for more examples. I have nothing against trans people, but they clearly have something going on in their head that doesn't make them suitable to hold positions of power. Especially in a role where secret information needs to be kept secret. My ts clearance was revoked from me mid deployment because my wife spent too much money fixing our house. The government thought I would sell secrets to acquire more money. These people were installed in their position on purpose and with a clear agenda.
Recruitment goals not met: As a retired service member, I congratulate the recruiters for the job they have done so far. I can't imagine trying to convince someone to join when there are so few positive benefits available.
Lol , recruiters suck . They lie to recruits ,and encourage recruits to lie on legal documents. They give young men and women bad advise to fill their recruiting goals.
This law or policy must be changed no one Individual should hold such powers ever!!
Love it when she speaks about integrity, as she has no idea what integrity means
Let’s go TOMMY!! FELLOW AUBURN MAN HERE! YOU GOT ALL THE SUPPORT! CONTINUE DOING A GREAT JOB SIR!
Go Tommy, Roll Tide. He recruited my son, knew him by name when we were at the Auburn spring game his junior year. My son didn’t attend Auburn, but I still remember him coming up to my husband, “Where’s Michael?” Like we would come without him!
WDE. Embarrassed that Austin is also an AU grad. Sigh.
That’s right! 🙏❤️🇺🇸💎😊
You couldn’t pay me enough money to have to sit in a room with Warren and listen to her.
Don't think anyone really listens to her. Give them the same pay increase the average American got.
D Foley, DITTO!
I fast forward through Warren 😂 Tommy 💪🏼🇺🇸
I'd crack.
Harpy-hontas.
It does not matter who the SEC of Defense is; that person is governed by the laws of the US. If the current Defense Secretary feels he is above the law, he should be arrested and incarcerated like any other lawbreaker. Senator Tuberville is doing the task we the people asked Senators to do. Hurrah for the Senator from Alabama!
Seriously??? Holding promotions as hostages is a good thing? If this happened to me when I served I'd be effing pissed. There is no justification is using peoples promotions as a bargaining chip, that's childish and idiotic.
@@GompMCYou didn't listen why.
You comment is ....
@@GompMC don't believe Elizabeth's spin. Don't be gullible.
@@lynnmarie2962 I don't believe any politician, the fact is that Tuberville DID block the promotions, and he should be ashamed of his tactics. All you have to do is fact check and you will see that both sides are crooks and liars.
@@monibert4486 My comment is spot on, the military people that are Not getting promotion because of this, have nothing to do with the law that Tuberville doesn't like. The military personnel are innocent bystanders.
Way to Go Coach Tuberville! - Stand Your Ground! This Army Mom Agrees! 👏🏻👏🏻
I'm proud, as an Alabama native, to see the work Senator Tuberville is doing. Well done, sir!
Warren: emotional lunacy and sensationalism. Tuberville: logical practicality and following the rules. Enough said.
Tuberville is the dumbest person to ever serve in the Senate.
He's a damned football coach.
He's hurting our national defense.
Your misogyny is so extreme that it literally stinks .
So you think Tuberville holding up the leadership command appointments - which effectively cripples military effectiveness is a reasonable strategy? Mmmm guess you care more about politics than National Defense. It's pure idiocy and indulging politicians because you like their political viewpoint risks every single citizen's safety. So thanks for that....SMH
she is worth 12 million, she doesn't need to be in Congress
@@michaelsix9684 That would mean that no Republicans could serve in Congress.
This will be a political promotion, not by merits
They have to go to war send them to Ukraine 😅😅😅
Yeah she's looking to take senile Joe's job kuntmilla can't speak a full sentence so she giving her tryout
Dear Senator Tuburville, I am very proud of you Sir. Your doing a wonderfully Great Job and your future is Bright. Endeavors to persevere! You are truly a man of GOD! May God bless you, your family and keep you safe always! God bless America 🇺🇸 🙏!
Hold your ground Senator Tuberville!
Your supporting statistics were outstanding.
Us Americans also have a say YOUR FIRED Pocahontas
You hate the troops
@@luvitluvitbaby You're joking... right?
She Is Elected By And Works For The People Of The Commonwealth Of Massachusetts
Not You
81 million people in America are nuts!
@@luvitluvitbaby That was a stupid comment.
She's talking about generals and with some of the flakes in the upper ranks we could do without them
Thank You Very Much
Senator Tommy Tuberville!!
Good for you!! Hold their feet to the fire 🔥!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
The beauty of our military is that it will not matter when the promotions are approved. There will not be any hiccup in the leadership in any area of the military. There are layer upon layer of officers that can take command and lead the military until the other promotions are approved.
Good for Tommy Tuberville
Senator Tommy Tuberville What a man who is resisting bureaucratic corruption!! God Bless Em!
Biden, Austin, and Milley are the ones who’ve made us “less ready than we need to be.”
BITE ME
Treason and Sedition
Really not someone keep positions open
She talked as if her life was threatened 😂, or as if she lost her bonus if not reach this goal.
Thank God for Senator Tuberville! Hold your ground sir! We’re on the wrong path.
Someone remind me how abortion access is a vital key to national security. I can't find it on my intranet box
It’s not simply abortion access. The issue is that service members are receiving up to 21 days of uncharged leave of absence, and they can receive funding for their transportation and lodging costs.
NO MORE PROMOTIONS FOR WOKE MILITARY!
That's exactly what I thought. Stack services with hundreds of woke flag officers as part of taking over and changing the culture through bureaucratic capture.
Hay these generals need better sports bras to hold all that fat up man your talking millions
WHY DON'T YOU JOIN THE MILITARY, IF NOT HAVE A SEAT ON THE SIDELINE. PLUS YOU DON'T KNOW THE MEANING OF WOKE.
You are right Randall our military leaders are woke .
@@hirameberhardt8643 Woke has no place in our military.
Keep up the good work senator Tuberville.
He is not standing in the way, he's standing up.
Thank you, Senator Tuberville
Good as a combat veteran I support these blocks
Me too!
It’s hard to believe that she cares 1 whit about our national security.
Stand tall Senator Tuberville ❤️🇺🇸❤️
You will see the impact of this delay in the future when the out going leaders have no replacements and there is a vacuum of leadership
@@Adrian-jh5cr "more Admirals than warships.""Latest officer to troop ratio 1:4." -Sen.Tommy Tuberville (R-AL).
Hit 'em with facts. Whatever it takes.
Grreat job Tommy - teach McCarthy how to block ALL DEM ACTIONS UNTIL they come to the table.
I stand by you all the way in God mame! Mr,Tuberville , love you and you are a real person in heart and soul.
That was fabulous! Good for you, Tommy.
Gen. Austin & Milley prove Turberville’s point
Liz, this is one of the reasons we are not a democracy. 😊
EXCELLENT job Sen Tuberville - now if you can get the rest of Republicans to do this exact same thing in the other nominations - use the Power of the Purse! They walk over the Republicans at every turn - run rough shod over the rules and laws, do as they see fit when the see fit and then the Republicans are left holding the bag. Again - great job
When we have Republicans owned by China…that’s you McConnell!!!…selling America down the drain…what can you expect from the Dems. Go Tuberville, go Kennedy, go Paul, go Grassley, go Johnson, go Ted and a few of the other good ones!!!!
As a progressive, I love seeing the military personnel get screwed by wealthy, crazy conservatives. Both sides can kill each other as far as im concerned. I just thought you guys were all pro-military. You lunatics are losing friends everywhere, and it's great.
Great job, Coach Tuberville!
Fauxcahontas got sacked!
Hit 'em again, har-der!
No prisoners. Remind those Marxist Tyrants just.who.they.are.
Oh Yes C P. Let's cripple our military leadership at a time when China is threatening in the Pacific and Russia is rolling out its full efforts in Europe. What a fantastic idea!!!! No risk to US interests right now 🙄🙄
He carries a purse?
Until the top brass is changed They can't do their Job.
General Officers serve until their successor is installed. The blocking of a vote by a Senator does not affect the security of the Nation. Yes, they might not get a pay raise until promoted, but they still have a pretty good income and benefits. Senator Warren is once again blowing hot air. She should put this energy into Border illegal alien issues.
I knew she had to be hiding something. Good for you Mr. T for standing your ground and doing what is right.
These are top officials that won’t be hurt in the latest. Power of the purse on display here. There is no readiness issue here. That’s BS
Obviously you have never served in the military. Sad! Maybe you wouldn’t be such an ungrateful white immigrant!
Agreed with the previous comment from Debbie. We definately need clones of Tommy tubervile
Go Tuberville…you hold your ground!!!!!
She just accused him of extortion? Isn't that a crime??? Seems to be something a Senator should know, and I hope he sues the crap out of Pocahontas.
McConnell should just pack up and leave, people like Coach Tuberville is what is needed.
@@TheToddWarner Unfortunately, there is a thing called "Congressional Immunity".
@@TheToddWarner more like Fauxcahontis
Hold the line Senator.
I can't wait to vote for Tommy again!!
Is she still claiming she's an American Indian
1/127 % Fake Native American
Not since it’s not making her any money!
Yes, when it benefits her.
Hey, who are ya?, Hey, who are ya?"
She’s just mad that she never got promoted to chief of her tribe
😂😂
(Real Native Americans, to Lizzy):
"Hey, who are ya!? Hey, who are ya!?"
no wonder I heard people call her Fauxcahontas
Yea.....her FAKE Tribe, THE TRIBE.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
a Lt Col called for accountability what happened to him he was charged with a crime and later discharged
We want more people to enlist but we want you to do it while we take away your rights! Good luck Tommy!
The military needs high morals. We dont need lowlifes who will get pregnant to avoid deployment.
Great job Senator Tuberville - thank you🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Warren all concerned about National Security...
With these promotions...
But... NOT CONCERNED FOR THE SOUTHERN BORDER??
I can’t believe she did this.
I can.
Amen
she is an older version of aoc and why she is still in there. this is why we need term limits for all gov. positions
@@trapperbill4962 Yep. They're very clever in putting bills together adding stuff that shouldn't be in there then hold you responsible for not passing it. Then publicly announcing that the person going against it will destroy so many lives when it was always the person putting it together who should be held accountable for it.
It's like, holding you hostage for something you was never responsible for.
@@figs9106 Great comment!
The Senator seems to not concern herself with the fact that our Pentagon is overrun with neoncons so anxious to spend billions of tax payer dollars to prevent a possible war and send in our military equipment and some soldiers as well. She wants to make certain the brass gets an increase in pay, which then makes me wonder if this will add to their retirement as I suspect most do not have small children. Why is it that ppl like Senator Warren care more about the brass than the soldiers, men and women, fighting for our country that died in Afghanistan hearing nothing as a soldiers awaited a command to take down a terrorist, received no reply to take action and 13 soldiers came home in coffins. Was this message the responsibility of someone wearing the brass now deserving a vote of confidence by increasing their pay? Shame on you and your cohorts Senator and a salute to Senator Tuberville.
A B S O L U T E L Y
Absolutely what? She is fighting for advancement of those military promations because when seniors members of the military are advanced it opens up positions for lower ranked people to advance.
Why do people comment on things they do not understand. You and the original person have either not severed in the military or just chose to ignore the facts.
Republicans only game is to hold Americans hostage to get what they want.
Keep on keeping on Tommy!!
Thank G-d the senator from Alabama has a set he can probably even define what a woman is,...HOW REFRESHING!!!! The senator from Alabama has guts!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you Senator Tuberville. Thank you for standing firm
Elizabeth doesn't understand how democracy works 🤪
The longer she talks to more I see why he’s blocking them.
Understand that the government owns military personnel RE: soldiers personal dispositions. Usurping Congress and Senate (we the people) shall not be allowed! Keep up the good work Tuberville!
Well done Tommy, sir
Good for tuberville, a solid American
You speak the truth, Coach. Hard work never interfered with you winning, and you continue to win in the Senate.
Alabama is so lucky to have him representing them.
Hold tough Sen Tommy Tuberville!
Senator Tuberville. I am a citizen of Massachusetts. It is my belief that if you pushed my senator my Senator down a flight of stairs, I would not object. In fact, if you should decide to kick Senator Warren in the head as she comes to the bottom of the stairs. I would smile and surreptitiously slip you a C note in a Thank You card. Thank you to the citizens of Alabama for electing Tommy T. to the Senate.
I, too, am from Massachusetts. Both she and Markey are an embarrassment.
😂😂😂
Can we add the 2 New York ones to the list and McConnell. That fall he had wasn’t hard enough…he can still talk!
@@msharno1 I really hope Kentucky kicks McConnell to the curb sooner rather than later
@@msharno1 Goodness!! I believe I love the directions of your thoughts. Perhaps if we pray regularly to the deity's of our particular choice. They will reward us with the pain, suffering and destruction of their political careers. Like for instance, that of John Fetterman.
Good for you Tuberville
Thank you Sen Tubberville! Block all this nonsense! Roll Tide...
Does Warren want a raise for the enlisted man or should they just stay on food stamps?I wonder if any of the generals or colonels that she is ranting about have to be on food stamps to feed their family ?
Something is telling me there's more to it than what she is telling
Something better be, Warren has, at best, only a passing relationship with the truth.
Thank you for the ultimate truth, senator Tuberville.
Once a Marine always a Marine. A Marine never retires.
Stand firm Senator Tub! No those promotable service members can still take their posts/positions/commands. They are promotable and take those positions, they just don’t receive the grade pay, until the Senate confirms them. This is a DOD problem because they are not following the law. All these positions she articulated are filled right now by those promotable(s). No these officers can take the leadership posts, they don’t get the grade pay, they have the advancements. I don’t think Flag Officers and Generals have a problem paying for groceries. DOD needs to fix their policy. Stand firm Senator Tub. !!!
Ummm, yea. We’re talking about C-suite executives here (0-7 and above). Have a look at the 2023 military pay scale (and those reflect base pay), might find it enlightening…somehow I think they’ll be just fine.
She "cares about protecting service members"?? Liar. BSlook at how they were forced to take the poison or else. She is sickening.
Senator Elizabeth Warmonger.
That she is a true warmonger

Good job Mr Tuberville
I am so glad someone will say I gave my word and now I'm gonna do exactly what Isaid I would do. And how many generals do we need. The number is staggering and ridiculous.
Good job Tuberville. Austin needs to read the Constitution and realize he doesn't make the laws and we didn't vote for him.
Someone voted for him
Nor did we VOTE FIR PRONOUN MILLEY, sissy pants, who contacts his equal, whether it is China or Russia … remember folks
Austin is an appointed beaurocrat and you are 100% correct.
In light of the US military forces members left behind in Afghanistan, I think that it's time for court martial hearings and stripping some rank levels in others
God bless Senator Tuberville! No promotions!
Good work Tommy! 👍🏻💪🏻
Good for you, Senator, this fellow Alabamian proudly stands with you!
Send the top military into the combat zone and raise the pay for the troops
Exactly!
That's our boy. Go Tommy!
Go war eagle!!
Agree💯%. Voted for him, proud of him! Roll Tide/War Eagle!
Good!!! Don't let the Dems just do whatever they want, because they aren't entitled to break or ignore the law, make up the rules as they go, NOR are they entitled to rule unilaterally. I know they'd love to make Biden another King George, but sadly for them, thats not how American government works. Keep it up, Mr. Senator!!!!❤
