(Daily Caller)—Republican Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw said he is ready to “tear apart” Republican Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville over his ongoing hold on the confirmation of the Pentagon’s military nominees, Politico reported on Friday.
Tuberville has successfully blocked the confirmations of over 300 military nominees in the Senate since February out of protest of the Pentagon’s abortion policy, which funds female service members’ travel while seeking an out-of-state abortion. Crenshaw expressed his frustration with Tuberville’s blockade and feared “worsening consequences” in a text exchange with Republican allies, according to Politico.
“[I am] at a point where I’m going to tear apart (if asked) coach/Senator/non-veteran Tuberville for personally attacking service members who have spent almost 30 years serving our country,” Crenshaw said in a text exchange. “I don’t know what outcome he expected, but I’m hearing more and more that his actions are having worsening consequences.

Navy Adm. Lisa Franchetti said that Tuberville’s hold will take the military “years to recover” from if not lifted soon, during her confirmation hearing on Thursday. Franchetti is currently nominated for the Chief of Naval operations position but will only be able to fill the role as in an acting capacity due to the blockade.
Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren said during Franchetti’s confirmation that Tuberville’s hold will cause disruptions in Navy operations at every level, and further strain the branch’s recruiting crisis.
“The price our nation will pay for the reckless behavior of Senator Tuberville will reach far into the future,” Warren said.
Tuberville contends that his blockade is not hurting military effectiveness, and is solely intended to target service members at the highest levels. Tuberville also noted that Majority Leader Chuck Schumer could hold individual confirmation votes, which he has thus far refused to do.
Tuberville told Franchetti during Thursday’s confirmation hearing that he looks forward to seeing her in the Navy and encouraged her to put politics aside in her new role.
“I know you can do that job – I’m looking forward to it,” Tuberville told Franchetti.
Crenshaw and Tuberville did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.



Cyclops should mind his manners, I voted for Tuberville . Dan’s a pantywaist.
Very nice comment.
Crenshaw’s a Texas RINO.
Crenshaw is a filthy maggot lowlife and the Navy has been in the SEWER for quite some time:
USS Connecticut Incident
USS Bonhomme Richard Destruction – 34 officers including 4 ot 5 admirals, should have been court–martialed, but none were; NCIS personnel involved should all have been court–martialed or fired, involved ATF personnel should all have been terminated!
And too many other examples – I applaud Sen. Tommy, far too many communists already in the services and Franchetti IS NOT QUALIFIED to comment!
Texas deserves better!
The communist generals and admirals can spend their free time now on Chicom surveillance balloon watch . . .
Beyond the comments on Crenshaw (being ex-military doesn’t make you smart on military matters as I witnessed in my time in the military), I am surprised at the outcry that our military cannot recover from such actions as those by Tuberville. First off, an acting commander can still command. In war if the commander is killed, then the XO takes over. Am I missing something? Also, for Colonels not getting promoted, there was, at least in the Army, a process call “frocking.” The Colonel would get to wear the star while waiting for Congressional approval, if placed in an assignment “requiring” a general officer to fill it. In short, there are so many work arounds already in place that all the “woe is me” stuff is theater by the libs not getting their way. P.S. I love Texas, but they sure elect some foul balls with distressing frequency.
Sure wish Crenshaw would show the same attention to the J6 patriots’ imprisonment at the DC Gulag and the false imprisonment of ENRIQUE TARRIO?!

Is Franchetti the real deal, or another Navy drag queen?????
https://thefederalist.com/2023/09/15/navy-puts-the-kibosh-on-digital-recruiting-program-after-discovering-enlistees-arent-into-drag-queens/
Congress needs to invite maggot Crenshaw to daily committee hearings where they call ALL the Joint Chiefs and Gilday and the heads of all the military service academies before them, weekly, to explain ALL THIS DRAG QUEEN SHOW CUH–RAP!!!
Crenshaw is a WASTE OF SKIN RINO………Texas needs to get rid of him. It didn’t take him long at all to fall in with the rest of the establishment RINO’s after lying to the public about where he stood on issues prior to his election.
Phuck you ONE-EYED McCain
One-Eyed McCain. Gitmo for you too.
I think Tommy can take crenshaw…..
dan looks like he’s in distress…do we need to call him a waaambulance
