Republican senators on Thursday hammered the nominee for a key Pentagon military personnel job, arguing past tweets and statements show she will not be able to respect Christian troops' religious freedoms and oversee chaplains.
The political fireworks happened as Brenda "Sue" Fulton, who was tapped by President Joe Biden to be assistant secretary of defense for manpower and reserve affairs, testified at her confirmation hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Fulton is a West Point graduate who was the first openly gay member of the academy's Board of Visitors, and she has led several LGBT military groups including SPARTA, which advocates for transgender troops.
