How it started How it’s going Reports of Trapped sailors getting rotten meat on the ship and trying to jump overboard reminds us of the report that Hegseth spent millions on lobster, steak, crab for him and his buddies back at home

I’m sure Pete Hegseth will start working on conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln as soon as he has his hair and makeup finished for his latest propaganda video with his traveling camera crew we are paying to promote Pete Hegseth.

It’s important for everyone to know the MAGA regime are actively covering up the horrific conditions onboard the USS Abraham Lincoln includin drunkard rapist fox host Pete Hegseth targeting service members and their famines who dare to speak out about it. I’d love to see Hegseth in jail.

I spoke to a grandmother today worried about her 21-year-old grandson who's aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln. He’s lost 20-25 pounds and is struggling with depression. And so-called leaders like Pete Hegseth aren’t doing a thing about it.

Kelly: Trump knows nothing about this stuff… He's a marginally failed real estate developer with multiple bankruptcies. He shouldn't be weighing in on systems on aircraft carriers.

Sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln describe horrific conditions as their deployment drags on with no announced return date. Plus, Trump’s Iran war, record gas prices, ICE’s electric shock gloves, the latest midterm developments, and much more. Read our new bulletin:

Apple: ~$2.2 billion Nike: $986 million FedEx: ~$800 million Amazon: $640 million General Motors: $500 million Giant corporations are raking in millions in tariff refunds and getting even richer. But remember: corporations passed tariff costs on to you. Where's YOUR refund?

Gas prices are up 24.6% from a year ago and still significantly higher than they were before the Iran War. Meanwhile, the world's 8 biggest oil companies have made a $93B profit windfall in just the last three months. Big Oil is raking it in as the world burns — and we're paying for it.

Multiple sailors on the USS Abraham Lincoln have tried to jump overboard after 8+ months of extended deployment with no end date. Families say their loved ones are burnt out, exhausted, and terrified. No fresh meat or fruit. Rotten food. The Navy keeps them at sea while mental health collapses.

Could someone explain to me why our government just gave $2 billion to save the Tomago Smelter from closing, and saving lots of people’s jobs, when the owners - Rio Tinto - posted making $10 billion? Why couldn’t they pay for it?

Can we please just say what is actually happening on the USS Lincoln… That sailors are actually trying to commit suicide… Not just jump off a ship and swim towards land Conditions are TERRIBLE WHAT. ARE. WE. DOING??
