The crew is in its ninth month at sea, and has spent 250 days consecutively without making land " a record for an aircraft carrier in modern times.
Pedo 47 and Roofie Pete did that.

Broken showers full of mold, running out of food, soap and toothpaste.
On station for 8 full months despite being scheduled to rotate out back in May.

They will have to wait. USS Photo Prop will be in the shop for another 6 months getting it's supply of crab and ribeyes replenished before its next VIP deployment.

Text messages from a service member aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln show horrific conditions.
They do not have any fresh food. One service member questioned if the government is doing this intentionally to see how far they can "push sailors' limits."

Parnas: I've spoken to numerous military families...
Our service members abroad are having moldy showers, are not getting detergent, not getting soap. Some haven't had a fresh meal in months.
Prisoners in America get better meal rations than these troops are getting right now in the Middle East.
It's hard to believe a demented serial rapist isn't doing right by his suckers and losers.

Pete Hegseth only cares about beards
Beards are heterosexual women who marry gay guys so they can pretend to be heterosexual men.

Exactly.
The Trump admin seems to be most concerned about "how things look" and not about the ability of those things to act.

The buffoon who paints his face orange and combs his back hair over his head so it appears he still has hair on his head only cares about "how things look".
Same with Hegseth who installed a makeup room in the pentagon.

Lewzer sure does know how to flush money down the drain. Does anyone even make stream catapults anymore?

$900 million to destroy the East Wing of the White House.
But not enough money to assure that the toilets can flush properly for our sailors?

Sources tell me that the mental health crisis is embarrassment that the sailors are having to serve on a boat named after a sucker and loser of a president who actually died during an assassination attempt.

Do you really expect a member of the Trump admin to be honest about their contempt for the people who serve the Country?
imo, the Trump admin views those people as mere sacrificial pawns.

And this know-nothing butthole needlessly blows more billions:
Trump orders the Navy to return to an older system of launching jets off aircraft carriers President Donald Trump is ordering the U.S. Navy to remove the advanced system used to launch fighter jets from its newest type of aircraft carrier and return to using older steam catapults that he has long said he prefers, according to a directive issued Thursday. The new mandate would likely cost billions of dollars and revert the Navy's most advanced ships to a system that takes more sailors to operate and is more difficult to maintain. apnews.com

Mostly because he thinks magnets don't work when they get wet. And yet he wants railguns on his golden battleships.
