Real reason USS Lincoln wasn’t resupplied exposed as Hegseth denies ‘poor conditions’ on carrier?

The USS Abraham Lincoln’s record-breaking deployment has raised fresh questions about why the aircraft carrier has gone more than 260 days without a port call. Journalist David Rohde alleges that Iran’s damage to a key U.S. Navy logistics hub in Bahrain disrupted resupply operations, forcing the Navy to rely on longer routes from Diego Garcia. Rohde also claims War Secretary Pete Hegseth failed to disclose the extent of the disruption during public briefings. Reports have separately raised concerns about food, supplies and living conditions aboard the carrier. President Donald Trump and Hegseth have denied the allegations, calling reports of a crisis false or misrepresented.
