TL;DR

White House national security spokesman John Kirby warned that Sen. Tommy Tuberville's hold on over 160 Pentagon nominees over abortion policies could have an impact on U.S. military readiness. Kirby said Tuberville's block comes "at a time when we are still trying to support Ukraine, while we're still facing challenges in the Indo-Pacific region." Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin also warned of "powerful effects" on military readiness if Tuberville continues to hold up the nominees.
