Tuberville Lifts Blockade on 400 Military Promotions But Still Stalls Top Brass
- Tuberville lifted his blockade on over 400 military promotions but is still blocking the highest-level 4-star nominees
- The blocked 4-stars create a ripple effect down the chain of command, preventing lower-ranking officers from moving up
- Key leadership positions at Central Command, Northern Command, the Joint Staff, and elsewhere remain blocked
- The holdup has real-world impacts on military operations and readiness around the globe
- Senate Majority Leader Schumer will need to hold standalone votes to confirm the remaining 4-star nominees
