The acting navy secretary, Hung Cao, said the Lincoln \u201cwill return home soon\u201d in\u00a0a social media post on Friday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump strode into office for a second term vowing to avoid lengthy and expensive military entanglements. And after launching the Iran war, alongside Israel, Trump and his advisers said the conflict would last a matter of weeks. The war is now more than five months old.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But on Friday, during his crime address in Garden City, New York, he acknowledged that he\u2019s used the U.S. military \u201ca little bit more than I wanted to,\u201d while asserting anew that the U.S. operation against Iran is going well. He even said, seemingly in jest, that \u201cpretty soon I\u2019ll be declaring the Hormuz Strait a territory of the United States.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ll never apologize,\u201d Trump added about the war and its impact on oil prices. \u201cI did the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Democrats demand Pentagon briefing on USS Lincoln<\/h4>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Extended deployments of carriers during the Iran conflict have raised concerns about the impact on service members who are away from home for long periods as well as the increasing strain on the ships and their equipment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several Democratic lawmakers, including Sens. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Ruben Gallego of Arizona, are pressing for accountability from the Pentagon over conditions aboard the Lincoln, which Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Thursday said were \u201ccompletely misrepresented.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rep. Jason Crow, D-Colo., who served three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan with the 82nd Airborne Division and 75th Ranger Regiment before being elected, took to social media to criticize Trump\u2019s comments, saying on X that \u201cPresident Trump does not care about our servicemembers or their families.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Top Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have requested a classified briefing on the ship\u2019s food inventory, sanitation issues and healthcare availability, as well as an assessment of how much longer it would be deployed before relief arrives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Republicans have been less outspoken about the situation on the Lincoln. The GOP chairmen of the House and Senate armed services committees did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While hostilities between the U.S. and Iran have calmed in recent weeks, the Navy has\u00a0reimposed a blockade on Iranian ports\u00a0in the crucial\u00a0Strait of Hormuz,\u00a0and the Trump administration has offered no clarity on\u00a0how it intends to wind down the war. Hegseth said the U.S. military can maintain the blockage of Iranian ports \u201cindefinitely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another aircraft carrier, the USS George Washington, left port in Da Nang, Vietnam, last week, and is expected to replace the USS Lincoln, one of two aircraft carriers currently deployed in the Middle East.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After reports emerged that sailors on the Lincoln are struggling with mental health concerns, the Navy said it has \u201cnot observed an increase in suicidal ideations or attempts aboard the ship,\u201d though officials have declined to provide data, citing operational security and patient privacy concerns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Navy official said a sailor aboard the Lincoln went overboard in early August but the person was quickly recovered, treated by the ship\u2019s medical department and transferred off ship for follow-on care. The official would not say whether it was being considered a suicide attempt.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. Central Command, which oversees military operations in the Middle East, has also pushed back on reports about poor conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#Ill #apologize #Trump #brushes #Iran #wars #impact #oil #prices<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President\u00a0Donald Trump\u00a0on Frid&hellip;
