Can someone tell Senator Tuberville that the United States Marine Corps has had a Commandant for the past 248 years. Decapitating leadership only helps the enemy. Confirm the Commandant! :flag:

President Joe Biden has chosen Adm. Lisa Franchetti to lead the Navy, an unprecedented choice that, if she is confirmed, will make her the first woman to be a Pentagon service chief and the first female member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Biden's decision goes against the recommendation of his Pentagon chief. But Franchetti, the current vice chief of operations for the Navy, has broad command and executive experience and was considered by insiders to be the top choice for the job.
In a statement Friday, Biden noted the historical significance of her selection and said “throughout her career, Admiral Franchetti has demonstrated extensive expertise in both the operational and policy arenas.”
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin recommended that Biden select Adm. Samuel Paparo, the current commander of the Navy’s Pacific Fleet, several U.S. officials said last month. But instead, Biden is nominating Paparo to lead U.S. Indo-Pacific Command.

How is this Philistine Tuberville now able to now decapitate the US Army. Who is Tuberville defending for gosh sakes?! Biden's puff of smoke up my ass with Francetti doesn't get us a Commandant or US Army Chief of Staff.
