Sen. Tuberville's action led to floor votes on long-delayed military nominations as Senate Majority Leader Schumer adjusted strategy after cloture threat
"And so he blinked – we force his hand," Tuberville told Fox News Digital in an interview Thursday. "Now the American people can see they can do it, and hopefully he will continue to do it because I'm not changing my mind on the group at one time." Jamie Joseph is a writer who covers politics.

As such, the Senate confirmed Gen. Charles "CQ" Brown to serve as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and will continue voting on two more nominations Thursday. However, Democrats remain unwavering on teeing up votes one-by-one for each member.
