President Joe Biden on Wednesday had some fun at the expense of Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL).
The Alabama senator earlier this week boasted about scoring funding to deploy broadband in rural Alabama that came from the $1 trillion infrastructure bill that passed Congress nearly two years ago.
"Broadband is vital for the success of our rural communities and for our entire economy," Tuberville wrote on Twitter. "Great to see Alabama receive crucial funds to boost ongoing broadband efforts."
Even though the infrastructure bill passed the United States House of Representatives and the United States Senate with bipartisan support, Tuberville was one of the votes against the package.

Biden subsequently pounced at the opportunity to needle the GOP senator.
"See you at the groundbreaking," the president wrote on Twitter.
Biden is making the infrastructure bill, along with the CHIPS and Science Act and the Inflation Reduction Act, centerpieces of his reelection campaign, as he's touting all three bills as investments that will create more good paying jobs for blue-collar Americans who have seen their earning power decline for decades thanks to the exodus of manufacturing jobs overseas.
