They’re running wall-to-wall coverage about how “terrible” conditions are on the USS Abraham Lincoln… food shortages, hygiene issues, sailors supposedly jumping overboard. Then Trump says a retired admiral and people actually on the ship told him it’s “beautifully maintained” and calls the reporting fake news. Cue the dramatic music and concerned anchors. CNN’s formula never changes: - Push a bleak narrative - Platform anonymous “concerns” - Act shocked when the President doesn’t play along Nine months at sea is tough. Pretending the entire ship is falling apart because Trump won’t validate your story is just another day at CNN. ]]> Wed 19 Aug 2026 07:56:02 +0200 https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1618837/cnn-is-in-full-cope-mode/ https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1609687/fafo-uss-abraham-lincoln-has-been-redirected-to-the-middle-east-from-the-south-china/
WHAT THE LINCOLN'S DEPLOYMENT TELLS US ABOUT U.S. TIMING ON IRAN The USS Abraham Lincoln and three Arleigh Burke-class destroyers just got pulled from the South China Sea. At typical cruising speed, that's roughly a week to reach the Arabian Sea. So what does this mean for timing? Option one: the U.S. waits for the Lincoln, suggesting a larger sustained campaign with full carrier air power. That pushes any major action to late January. Option two: the U.S. acts before the Lincoln arrives using assets already in position, destroyers with Tomahawks in the Gulf and B-2 bombers from the continental U.S. like Operation Midnight Hammer last June. The Lincoln then provides follow-on capability for extended operations. The second option seems more likely. You don't reposition an entire carrier group from the Pacific for a symbolic one-night strike. The Lincoln's deployment signals Washington is preparing for something prolonged, not just a message. ]]> Thu 15 Jan 2026 01:45:00 +0200 https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1609687/fafo-uss-abraham-lincoln-has-been-redirected-to-the-middle-east-from-the-south-china/
