Senate confirms final military promotions after Tuberville's blockade

The Senate confirmed the final top military nominees on Tuesday night that were delayed by Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), who blocked the promotions for months in protest of a Pentagon abortion policy.

Tuberville announced a partial lift to his boycott earlier this month. But until Tuesday night, he kept in place holds on all senior military positions that were four stars or higher.

@snoozingnewt I'd consider resolving to a percentage like 90%

predictedNO

@Odoacre Haha, WHAT?

@Domer well, it seems like he caved and agreed to stop most of the holds. I don't think it's fair to resolve NO

How does this resolve if the Senate circumvents the hold with a rule change? https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/4314139-senate-republicans-get-ready-to-roll-tuberville-on-military-holds/

@jack I think NO would be reasonable in that case
