Dozing Diaper Donald and his cast of incompetents can't lie their way out of this, though bless their little hearts for trying. The crew aboard the ship and their families are going to lie?. Hmm, why would they think that? Maybe that's THEIR answer for things they don't know anything about, which is pretty much everything. Lest we forget that Dozing Diaper Donald placed loyalty above experience so even on the best of days, no one in his cabinet or running governmental departments have any clue of what they're doing. You know who else knows they don't know what they're doing-world leaders! Our standing in the world has gone to shit with this pasty white, ass wipe in the White House.

Hegseth. Drunk POS. Old saying: “A fish stinks from the HEAD.” The stench from your malignant, murdering, moronic uncle doth stink up the entire world. BILLION $$$ ICE GLOVES that emit electric shocks. This must be Stephen Miller’s “handiwork.” That little Nazi must be creamin’ in his jeans over this one. 🤮🤬😡

Well said, Dr. Trump. Hegseth is an incompetent liar and drunkard who should be thrown out with the trash. The Groomers Of Pedophiles party should be thrown out on their ears in November. The demented, corrupt and ignorant DJT needs to be impeached immediately after the election. We need to take our democracy back from the hands of these thieves!

Your 'GOP' is awesome -- if I give you credit for this outstanding description of the GOP can I use it online?

Feel free...no credit needed!

Thank yah; thank yah verah much (to be spoken the way Elvis Presley said it).

The entire U.S.S. Lincoln situation is another example of Trump and his administration, in this case Hegseth not having a plan much less a strategy.

The Navy is structured such that there is always a flotilla in readiness to take over another group's operations. Or at least it is supposed to. Who knows what has happened under these two. Maybe the firing of so many staff level officers has left the Pentagon without the experience it needs.

One way they aren’t incompetent: the corruption and graft have been very successful. By pardoning criminals he has forfeited billions that would have gone to taxpayers. There is so much it couldn’t even be listed in a single article.

Bingo! And I believe the intent is to bury American prosperity (except for the handful of billionaires).

Fat Donnie and Piss Drunk Pete are the primary reasons why the sailors on the Lincoln are suffering, but where the f'k is the admiral in charge of the fleet? The chief of naval operations is awol as well (as he would be, since he is a DEI hire replacing a highly qualified woman). Shit, Captain Bligh and Captain Queeg cared more about the sailors under their command than these assholes.

Excellent points indeed. Hegseth isn't the only asshole "in charge". Where ARE the other bigwigs?? The families of these sailors should be writing letters to every MSM in the country, as well as world wide, if they aren't already, to get this rectified NOW.

Thanks Mary for saying this up front. Well put, and sadly so true😢😢

Corruption. Treason. Cruelty. They should be grounds for being thrown out of office. As a sign at an anti-Trump rally said, “I’ve seen smarter cabinets at IKEA.”

The only positive coming out of this USS Abraham Lincoln nightmare is that veterans who voted republican might not vote for this party in the midterms after the way these nazis have treated these poor sailors. It’s just sickening…..

Mark's avatar

Why hasn’t he sent Baron, Jr and Eric to serve on the USS LINCOLN?

RRiveter's avatar

Because they'd have to wash their own clothes, make their own beds, do manual labor, etc, etc. All of the things these two lazy, entitled, do-nothings have not a clue about.

Can't you just imagine Don the Con's stream of consciousness midterm convention? Rethuglicans should be afraid - very afraid. We are coming for you!

Great insight into the root of all evil, backed by firm evidence. This article uncovers hidden realities. It’s a forewarning of more of the same relentless , damaging input of Donald’s sinking regime; a downward spiral into annihilation. Enough is enough.

I wish you would have addressed djt's allotment of $20 milllion to ICE to purchase 'electric gloves' which can taser a human being in 3 seconds, not to say destroy all the nerve endings in their palms. This is the most sadistic individual torture instrument, short of a real gun, the likes of Stephen Miller have come up with. My God, paralyzing someone in the hands is a metaphor of how far these thugs will go to quash dissent. Appalling, please contact your reps about this!

Inhumane conditions one might expect in a third world shit hole.
