+ Tommy Tuberville, the Alabama senator who lives in Florida, told FoxNews that he will continue blocking senior Pentagon appointments until the plague of “wokeness” is driven out of the military. “We got people doing poems on aircraft carriers,” the senator exclaimed. “Doing poems?” We certainly wouldn’t want a Rupert Brooke, Wilfred Owen, Robert Graves or Siegfried Sassoon to emerge from the ranks of our Navy!
+ Naturally, the response to Tuberville from Navy brass is equally bonkers. The Cuban-born Carlos del Toro, Secretary of the Navy under Biden, accused Tuberville of “aiding and abetting communists,” which is a strange kind of woke.
