#Hegseth’s predecessor, General #LloydAustin, ordered the review of the awards in 2024 after a Congressional recommendation in the 2022 defense bill — itself a reflection of efforts by some lawmakers to rescind the awards for those who participated in the bloody #massacre on #SouthDakota’s #PineRidge #IndianReservation near #WoundedKnee Creek.

About damn time, #TommyTuberville is a #threat to #NationalSecurity.

Sen #Tuberville quietly ended his #blockade on the promotion of a senior #military aide to #Defense Sec #LloydAustin after the #Alabama #Republican, under pressure from colleagues, met privately w/the aide on Tues.

[Tuberville has a history of #AbuseOfPower blocking multiple appointments & military promotions because he didn’t want female service members to be able to receive #ReproductiveHealthcare.]
