The US Navy has denied reports of food shortages on board two major vessels participating in the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Yesterday USA Today reported crew aboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln and amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli were not getting enough to eat.
One photo taken by a Marine showed a mostly empty lunch tray with a single scoop of shredded meat and one tortilla.

Mmm…unidentified piece of meat.
Reminds me of Steak-umm. Ground up meat trimmings formed into a loaf that is sliced thin before cooking. Frequently used in place of higher quality cuts in cheese-steak sandwiches. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it presented in such a depressing manner, though.
“Ignore the evidence before your eyes”
Makes you wonder where all that money is going…
Auditors wonder the same thing.
Potential recruits: If they’re not even going to feed you properly, what makes you think they’re gonna pay for college?
routine menu adjustments are simply how we optimise our endurance to keep our warships in the fight
omg I thought your quote was parody and then I read the article
New image challenge just came in: US Military dinner or US school lunch
No, of course not. Don’t be silly! We have no shortage of strange gray slabs of dubious food. Plenty to go around, in fact!
didn’t most of the military vote trump? therefore they vote to eat that.
Ambiguous glistening meat slab again? We had that last night!
I’d rather eat an mre
An army marches on its stomach. Doesn’t sail on it I guess.
The US has turned into Russia 2.0.
Hegseth has begun to refer to the media as Pharisees, after the group of Jewish religious leaders now remembered as instigating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
Wow, these people are full on delusional. I hope they rot in hell for their obvious hypocrisy.
America is beyond fucked.
Its scary shit. And I don’t see us going back to normal for a long time
I see the extreme plunging of religion among the newest generations and the deep backlash against the current brand of xenophobia. It gives me hope that things will go back to normal and maybe get some gains in a very short time.
We’ll see. Gen Z males showed up in force to vote for Trump in the 2024 election. Some of the younger ones are alright, but others are doing the whole Hitler Youth thing. Overall I couldn’t tell you if they’re any more or less shitty than any other generation, but their voting record isn’t off to a great start.
I don’t see us going back to normal for a long time
what normal ? hanging black people ? slavery ? segregation ? invading some random country? vilifying native americans? shitting in a river? dumping battery acid in a stream ?
Yes, i obviously mean that…
Idk man maybe we can just start with not having a pedophile and convicted felon as president and go from there.
It’s interesting cause this is what American Christianity has been my whole life, go to any duck blind or Dairy Queen or high school football game, Hegseths are absolutely thick on the ground. These guys are there because they’re a mirror of their constituents.
You just call people who criticize you Pharisees in the US?
I’m so glad I grew up with the united church, where the lesson was mostly help your neighbour and strangers.
Nope, but I did grow up around people who would hear that in a meeting and then absolutely want to use their new linguistic toy every chance they got, despite not at all analyzing even the half-layer deep that would be required to understand what using it implies about who you think you are (or your boss is).
Yes, it’s just lingo
That’s too big a word and too specific a bible reference. They’ll just ask if you’re some kind of queer and then vaguely threaten to shoot you.
No, only fuckheads like him do that. Most Americans wouldn’t even know that that means.
I don’t, I’m an atheist because of people like that. But yeah Americans love to think they’re a Bible protagonist.
Yeah I don’t know what this guy is talking about. I grew up in a very rural very republican part of a southern state and I sure as shit never heard anybody call anybody a Pharisees.
Or at least not outside of a church
Almost makes me wish Hell and eternal damnation were real things.
Time and time again, every accusation is a confession.
That’s right, all you need is a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, and a tortilla.
So that plate is plenty
Hey hey hey, don’t forget about the “one other thing”. That’s the lynchpin that brings it all together! /s
Does the tray/plate count as the other thing?
1: piece of chicken
2: piece of broccoli
3: corn tortilla
4: ???
5: a wholesome meal
- profit!!
What’s always got me about that is how big is a piece of broccoli?
Instructions unclear. I put it all in my underpants.
Not even flour tortillas? Damn.
Sorry, but I think this is fucking hilarious.
Those people have gun and are evidently risking their lives for some greedy bullshit. If that’s not showing them that their leaders don’t give a shit about them, what would?
