Sen. Tommy Tuberville dismissed the idea that top military brass are working too much while he continues blocking hundreds of Department of Defense nominees.
Politicians don't even pay lip service to the idea that they represent everyone in their district anymore. If you aren't on their team then they openly tout the fact that you can't do a fucking thing about it.
The only reason Doug Jones was elected in the first place is because he was running against Roy Moore. Literally any other Republican candidate would have handily beaten Jones. Tubby just rode his name into congress.
