Hi Kentlee65...
Welcome friend...
We need your shell type, machine, and said machine OS.
OK.
When you run your aliases what are the results and/or error reports.
Copy and paste them from your terminal inside '</>' code tags. If nothing happens to any of them then just say nothing or blank.
This is a starter to help you diagnose errors and syntax as well as possible programming errors...
TIA.
Bazza.

TEE(1) User Commands TEE(1)
NAME
tee - read from standard input and write to standard output and files
SYNOPSIS
tee [OPTION]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
Copy standard input to each FILE, and also to standard output.
-a, --append
append to the given FILEs, do not overwrite
-i, --ignore-interrupts
ignore interrupt signals
-p diagnose errors writing to non pipes
--output-error[=MODE]
set behavior on write error. See MODE below
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
MODE determines behavior with write errors on the outputs:
'warn' diagnose errors writing to any output
'warn-nopipe'
diagnose errors writing to any output not a pipe
'exit' exit on error writing to any output
'exit-nopipe'
exit on error writing to any output not a pipe
The default MODE for the -p option is 'warn-nopipe'. The default operation when --output-error is not specified, is to exit immediately on
error writing to a pipe, and diagnose errors writing to non pipe outputs.
