18. The article, Tommy Tuberville: 'Admirals and generals' want me to keep blockading military promotions

In fact, Tuberville told CNN congressional reporter Manu Raju on Monday, the military is on his side.

"Nothing has changed," said Tuberville. "I've talked to admirals and generals, I've had people call me — I have had people call me over the holidays and say 'keep doing what you're doing, we're not having any problem.'"

Pressed for specific examples of admirals and generals who support his obstruction of military appointments, Tuberville said, “They’re people that are in the military ... it’s good to hear from people that are actually doing what they’re doing.”

The dude is insane and I seriously don’t think any military people are in agreement with him!
