Mr. Potato Head Still Preventing Military Promotions

Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s (R-Ala.) blanket hold on military promotions could be coming to an end in the near future, but conservatives are continuing to voice support for the blockade that has been in place since February. 

Twenty House members, including several members of the hardline House Freedom Caucus, wrote to Tuberville on Thursday lauding his actions and thanking him for his nine-month hold on what is now more than 400 military promotions over the Pentagon’s abortion policy.

Ron DeSantis Should Have Worn His White Go-Go Boots!

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and California Gov. Gavin Newsom were apparently having so much fun debating each other Thursday night that they decided to keep it going longer than planned. 

After roughly 90 minutes, Fox News host Sean Hannity, who was the event’s moderator, said that while they had to wrap up, he had more time on his show and plenty more questions. 

“Let’s just do an extended hour. I’m happy to do it,” Newsom said. 

Gavin Newsom basically took Ron Desantis high heel boots and cut him back down to 5’5 in that debate tonight. - myronjclifton

There's only one conclusion I can come to after that debate last night: DeSantis has a team of consultants who HATE  him. - Rick Wilson

Over 100 House Republicans defied their leadership to expel Santos. Every single member of the House Republican leadership voted to keep Santos in the House. - Ron Filipkowski

Fetterman Wants To Expel Menendez

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) was the guest on Friday’s episode of ABC’s The View, which was live as the news broke that the House of Representatives voted to expel now-former Rep. George Santos (R-NY). It was predictable that the hosts would ask Fetterman about Santos, but he was more interested in seeing someone else expelled: fellow Senate Democrat Bob Menendez of New Jersey.

On his third trip to the Middle East since the war began on Oct. 7, Blinken said the U.S. remains committed to supporting Israel’s right to self defense. But he also said it is imperative that Israel protect civilians if it starts major military operations in southern Gaza.

“Hamas unleashed a terrorist attack because they fear nothing more than Israelis and Palestinians living side by side in peace,” he tweeted on Tuesday evening. “To continue down the path of terror, violence, killing, and war is to give Hamas what they seek.”
