Tuberville Confuses Russia For The United States

Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) tried to take a jab at Ukraine this week, but instead ended up on the receiving end of a brutal fact check after he confused the facts. "The United States has sent $211 BILLION of your tax dollars to Ukraine, 4X as much as the rest of the world COMBINED," Tuberville wrote on X. The former college football coach was soon hit with a community note that read, "The $211 billion figure is the amount Russia has spent on the war as of February 2024. Senator Tuberville appears to have confused the United States with Russia." The community note linked to a Reuters article that read, "Russia has probably spent up to $211 billion in equipping, deploying and maintaining its troops for operations in Ukraine and Moscow has lost more than $10 billion in canceled or postponed arms sales, a senior U.S. defense official said on Friday."

It's clear that with Tommy Tuberville the stoopid is in no way part of an act. He is truly and deeply dumb.
