Make sure you share that with your black friends, coworkers, neighbors and relatives. |
That isn't the lesson, so your conclusion is faulty. One can be proud of their heritage and not be a white nationalist, but hey, if you want to associate yourself with the white nationalists, go for it. |
| Tuberville is stopping all military promotions because he wants to stop any blacks or non whites being in a higher position vs whites. Republicans fully support this. |
Oh good, one of Tuberville's staffers is on here. Tell your boss to let the military promotions happen already! |
WTH are you even talking about? Cite your source for this outrageous claim. You can't because it is blatantly false. |
This is well known on the hill and in white supremacists/neo-Nazi circles. Tuberville is funding raising on it. |
You call this statement a "source?" |
| Tuberville is weakening our country. |

DP, but here is the petulant Tuberville's hold on nomination and promotion:
https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/28/politics/tuberville-senate-holds/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/10/politics/marine-corps-tuberville-nominations-hold/index.html He is blocking the promotions in protest for military support of women's reproductive right. |
I know it is the truth. Do you work on the hill? We all know who is on his staff, their views and the organizations they are involved in. The press is not going to go in to that. The interesting thing is no member of the press has asked Tuberville(a self identifying white nationalist) if he is stopping promotions because there are blacks on the list. He would answer truthfully if asked but no one in the press will ask. The press knows, staff knows, other senators know, etc. It will come out in a few years
Look at the great work the press did with the “whistleblower” the republicans have been pushing around for over 1/2 a year. He was arrested, skipped out on bail and now is in Israel where he will never be extradited. Some how his history and criminal record never came out. Why? Because it goes against the conservatives narrative and the press did not look into his background. If you report a story against the conservative narrative they come after you and your family. |
No really. He has other reasons. |

For those who don't feel like clicking on the above links, here is why Tuberville is blocking hundreds of promotions:
"Senator Tommy Tuberville, a conservative from Alabama, has been single-handedly blocking hundreds of promotions for high-ranking generals and admirals since February, refusing to relent unless the Defense Department scraps a policy — instituted after the Supreme Court struck down the constitutional right to abortion last year — offering time off and travel reimbursement to service members who need to go out of state for abortions." Given the high rate of sexual assaults in the military--some of which may result in unwanted pregnancies--and the difficulty in recruiting new military personnel, this ploy doesn't make sense. |
| Racism and misogyny are fellow travelers. People who fear the erosion of existing hierarchies embrace both. Tuberville is willing to sacrifice the safety of our country rather than see women enjoy reproductive rights. |
| Omg! White nationalism is racist. |
