Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) has blocked hundreds of military promotions and nominations since February in a protest to the Pentagon’s abortion policy. Blue Star Families co-founder and CEO Kathy Roth-Douqet joins Brittany Lewis to discuss on "Forbes Newsroom."

During his Sunday morning appearance on CNN's "State of the Union," Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg called out Donald Trump over reports he told military leaders he didn't want wounded vets to be seen by the public while he was president.

Explanation: Mars has two tiny moons, Phobos and Deimos. Pictured above is Deimos, the smaller moon of Mars. In fact, Deimos is one of the smallest known moons in the Solar System measuring only nine miles across. The diminutive Martian moons were discovered in 1877 by Asaph Hall, an American astronomer working at the US Naval Observatory in Washington D.C. The existence of two Martian moons was predicted around 1610 by Johannes Kepler, the astronomer who derived the laws of planetary motion. In this case, Kepler's prediction was not based on scientific principles, but his writings and ideas were so influential that the two Martian moons are discussed in works of fiction such as Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, written in 1726, over 150 years before their actual discovery.

The Senate has confirmed three top military leaders, but hundreds of others remain blocked by Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.).

Far-right House Republicans are knowingly steering the U.S. economy toward danger by pushing for a shutdown — and are completely fine with that out of a belief it will somehow help former President Donald Trump retake office in 2024.

Jerry Falwell Jr., the disgraced former director of the right-wing Liberty University, is accusing university officials of sexual misconduct and other wrongdoing in an intellectual property lawsuit, reported The Daily Beast on Friday.

Former President Donald Trump approaches the U.S. military the way a mob boss would command his family, argued retired four-star Gen. Barry McCaffrey on MSNBC's "Deadline: White House" on Thursday. 

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Alabama) continues to block hundreds of military members from being promoted through Senate confirmation.

Yet hundreds of other senior military officers remain in limbo.

Liberal group Vote Vets called out Republican Tommy Tuberville and party leaders for holding up promotions in protest of abortion

Liberal veterans organization VoteVets is out with another political ad taking aim at Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) for holding up more than 300 senior military officers over an abortion policy in the Defense Department. The latest ad, “Tight lips could sink ships,” was released Tuesday and is expected to air nationwide, according to VoteVets. 

Members of the House Freedom Caucus were called "Chinese sympathizers" after they blocked a defense spending bill on Tuesday.

Conservative attorney George Conway broke down the severity of the summary judgment against former President Donald Trump and his adult sons in the New York State civil fraud trial on CNN Tuesday. "George, what do you think?" asked anchor Wolf Blitzer. 

Tuberville is treating the military with contempt. He reduces America’s fighters to powerless pawns in a political fight over abortion.

Explanation: This moon is doomed. Mars, the red planet named for the Roman god of war, has two tiny moons, Phobos and Deimos, whose names are derived from the Greek for Fear and Panic. These martian moons may well be captured asteroids originating in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter or perhaps from even more distant reaches of our Solar System. The larger moon, Phobos, is indeed seen to be a cratered, asteroid-like object in this stunning color image from the robotic Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, with objects as small as 10 meters visible. But Phobos orbits so close to Mars - about 5,800 kilometers above the surface compared to 400,000 kilometers for our Moon - that gravitational tidal forces are dragging it down. In perhaps 50 million years, Phobos is expected to disintegrate into a ring of debris.
