Sen. Tommy Tuberville dismissed the idea that top military brass are working too much while he continues blocking hundreds of Department of Defense nominees.
Its the department of defense, its in the executive branch, the president can, and trump did many times, make spots open when they want. So this has no bearing on any future presidencies. Its just military spending now for the already most expensive military in the world with a tendency to bomb other countries. What a shame that they cant do that as efficiently right now.
He’s only holding up military leadership. Whatever he’s saving is a tiny drop in the ocean of military spending. What he’s really doing is killing readiness. He’s also making sure that these spots can’t be filled by anyone who would owe allegiance to the Democrat party (despite the fact that none of them should owe allegiance to either party).
This is laying the groundwork for a coup and hurting our ability to prepare for and participate in conflicts.
How about “our” ability to put down any protests against the Trump administration? Because that’s what this is going to lead to. You don’t want us to be able to kill people in other countries? Fine. But this is going to get people in this country killed if they have their way.
We don’t always get to choose when a conflict is thrust upon us. If an ally or ourselves got attacked and we were unable to respond effectively, that would go very badly for us. It wouldn’t keep us out of the conflict, but a lot of people would die without effective leadership.

I want our ability to participate in conflicts to be hurt. Itll save a lot of lives
