--The sacrifices you're making have nothing to do with "defending America's freedom." --The biggest dangers you'll ever face in the military emanate from your "leadership." --Any woman (or person of color) who enlists or re-ups under this fascist regime is complicit in their own victimization.

Sickening and disgusting way to treat anyone, especially those who serve. (and not sea Sickening, humanity Sickening)

One of the reasons I switched to cups rather than disposables was the issues of working away from home and not always having access to shops. it is also loads cheaper and better for the environment.

Mutiny time. MFer has already lost a ton of respect from the within the ranks of the military; if stuff like this continues long enough, it's inevitable that things are going to get spicy.

you wanna know whats funny george hates donald 🤣 a woman communicated with him one thing he would do when he was alive if he hated someone he would give them the cold shoulder the woman quite literally asked him if he liked trump and he said No, and didn't wanna talk about him anymore 😂he only had

messages for the american people he holds such love for the american people its insane 🥹 he is aware whats going on in the country even though his body is no longer here hes still watching over the united states he knows how hard the citizens work everyday he had messages like wanting us to love

Oh look. Princess Donalda Felona Trump redecorating her house. What would America do without her gaudy, glittery, useless pastime? Might we all recommend the kitchen staff teach her to make the ketchup she loves to fling when having a tantrum? At least that would help save a few pennies vs

her spendthrift ways with our tax money. Or better. Give her a needle and thread so she can move the button on her trousers. 🙄 yuck. How embarrassing… a princess with seemingly nothing better to do than spend other people’s money.

Presidents are just 4-year temporary workers. Real power stays with multi-billion defense contracts, global commitments, and tech like Palantir embedded in the Pentagon for 20+ years. Washington doesn't "remove" anyone; long-term capital, contracts, and infrastructure run the show.

Could a reason for the bad judgement be decades of degraded education? I mean illiteracy and ignorance up to a certain percent might not be noticed, but when it gets above a certain level...

The most powerful military the world has ever seen and a drunk white nationalist and an orange toddler are in charge of it. One knows nothing about service the other has seen service but believes the rules of engagement do not apply. And definitely doesn't think woman should be in the military.

This congress has really shown it's true colors by not using their power & forcing trump to withdraw our ships from the Middle East. He sends them out then doesn't resupply them. That's dereliction of duty on the part of the Commander-in-Chief.

A bit harsh, don’t you think? Ok, US marines are not drafted but still, the navy securing a decent life for their employees should be a priority. Deployment is not something you chose, that’s why it’s called deployment. 47 is corrupt to his core, earning 💰on this war. Only a blue wave can stop him.

Where are the military leaders...speak the @#$# up! Or Vote Vets and other organizations who should be outraged regarding all of shameful and unacceptable concerns of the service members and their families.

TRUMP SEXUALLY ASSAULTED DOZENS OF WOMEN AND BRUTALLY RAPED CHILDREN - HES NOT EVEN OUR PRESIDENT SO FUCK HIM. OUR MILITARY MUST HELP OUR SOLDIERS BECAUSE FATASS FELON PEDO TRUMP SPENDS ALL OF HIS TIME SHITTING HIS PANTS AND FALLING ASLEEP IN IT.

No One should be surprised at the mistreatment these two malignant creatures are inflicting on the Military. Neither one has a decent bone in their body.

Trump and Hegseth will use this for a reason to not allow women into the military. To them, women are good for only 2 reasons, cooking and sex.

This is everything wrong!! The denial from hegseth is nauseating and tRump saying deployment not long enough...let's see him or his sons pull off 250 straight days at sea. hegseth doesn't even begin to understand needs of women sailors....on top of no food, disgusting water, on and on and on

2026. And they can’t get basic supplies. And all these people out there think they aren’t “sucking it up” when they couldn’t even tolerate wearing paper masks.

Some problems are due to incompetence. Some problems are created on purpose with cruelty in mind. Don’t put anything past Pete Hegseth’s ability to be hateful.

Yes, but we would need a team who can get the supplies to them. I’ve read supplies are being sent by families but not received. I think this is more heinous than we might realize

The mistreatment of these sailors and marines will not be forgotten. If Dems. take over both Houses, the first thing on the agenda should be Impeachment of Hogsbreath for utter failure to do his job. This followed by Impeachment of Shitler for corruption and failure to follow the Constitution.

Great for short term deployments/ exercises. Not great for 250 days straight with no end date... I'm expecting compulsory implants or sterilisation. I'm of an age where I had to sign agreeing to leave the Service if I got married or pregnant, so nothing would surprise me. (And I'm not that old.)

this bouncy, coked up drunk needs to just get his ass beat. tough guy wanna be. what a buffoon. a cartoon clown. a cliche. fuck, this whole regime needs to be dragged out by the scruff of their necks and publicly have their asses beat. i'm so tired of these "manly alpha males" running their mouths..

I mean providing mental and physical healthcare as well as a living wage is impossible for these people to see the impact that would have on drug abuse and homelessness. Sure, let’s go run around in the jungle and play war. They think that is the problem. They are so simple minded and oblivious.

Yeah, that's what we need to be doing right now - opening up more shooting war fronts. Kicking more anthills. It will distract the folks from $10 diesel and all it portends. 'Oceania was at war with Eurasia: therefore Oceania had always been at war with Eurasia.'

And that's what the whole fucking ordeal is really about. Was it an intentional ploy by Hegseth to prove women don't belong in the military or to weed "weak" people out of the ranks. All it really does is make sane people that don't want to get treated like shit want to leave.

It is quite different in terms of chain of supply. The women of Gaza are being prevented from access to supplies by a hostile force. The women on the Lincoln are being ignored by their own fucking "government".

Just watch -- Hegseth is going to turn this into a reason to keep women out of deployments. This is so degrading. And I bet it's the lowest-priority supply. I'd end up court-martialed for sure. I have LOTS of ideas about what to do with a quantity of menstrual blood.

We’ve mastered nuclear propulsion and satellite warfare, yet we’re still being defeated by the logistics of a cotton swab. The future is high-tech, but the supply chain is still stuck in the 19th century.

His hatred of women shows his fear of inadequacy. No one hates and compensates that hard without deep issues of inferiority. A woman really laughed at him bad. Publicly, maybe. Bless his heart. Impotence, maybe. Idk.

Now that is where hegseth would have some ‘man’ excuse why women shouldn’t serve.. fun fact young woman/girls don’t go to school cause those items aren’t available in schools in the US.. and lots of us had to ‘wad’ TP in our underwear 🤞 it would hold.. service members should never have to do that

Was Mary, I mean the other Mary, who cares, both, were using tampons and maxipads? Jesus pumping testosterone to take care of Mary and her needs, the other Mary, and that is all matters. They can use cloth and bury it, BTW. Not sure how it works in the sea. Hegseth needs $100B to figure it out.

Originally, there was no standing army. The idea was that organized militia were the core of what would be needed should war arise. The department was called War when it was created by people who believed war was inevitable. What should we going forward?

Has this embarrassment reached all the international media? Bad enough the reports on Human Rights Violations put out annually by China are on spot for America reality-if we can’t provide basic hygiene needs & food, we aren’t deploy ready-stop Trump’s war🇺🇸

The "USS BOXER" (LHD-4) operates essentially as a "small aircraft carrier" designed to project military power from sea to shore by transporting and landing U.S. Marines and their equipment. The warship carries a crew of 1,000 sailors and can transport over 2,000 combat troops.....

My concern is that this administration will target these soldiers with retribution because their families spoke up. Which I believe they should have never been put in this situation by the crew members being treated correctly.

Adding insult to injury, you just KNOW that Hegseth is going to look at this and see it NOT as yet another example that he has no fucking idea what he's doing, but rather as some sort of "evidence" that women shouldn't be in the military. 🤦‍♂️

No way he could envision a mechanism as sophisticated as a trebuchet. A kids catapult made from a stick and some elastic might be beyond him. A pile of rocks to throw is more on his intellectual level.
