Staff Reports
The situation on the USS Harry S. Truman is nothing short of a national embarrassment. In just over a week, two advanced F/A-18E Super Hornet jets have taken a plunge into the Red Sea. These are not your average vehicles; they cost a whopping $60 to $70 million each. American taxpayers are literally watching their money wash away. What’s more, these losses reveal deeper issues in our military that demand immediate attention.
The left loves to tout the greatness of their globalist vision, yet they oversee a military plagued by embarrassing mishaps. The supposed “safety mechanisms” that are meant to halt planes on carrier landings failed not once but twice, causing elite fighter jets to go overboard. In a time when the global stage is more volatile than ever, how can we take evasive steps when our ships and planes themselves are hazards?

One must question if this level of incompetence is the result of Democrats focusing more on making our military a woke experiment than an effective fighting force. Instead of ensuring our carriers and jets are battle-ready, liberal ideologues push for social engineering in the ranks. They should focus on maintaining strong defense systems. Consumers of truth must ask: are these ideological pursuits worth undermining national security?
While accidents can happen, the pattern here is disturbing. It’s not just aircraft being lost; it’s confidence in our military. Our sailors and pilots deserve equipment that functions correctly, and they deserve leadership committed to their safety. Instead, they’re getting excuses and false assurances. Is this the type of leadership that will ensure America’s safety on the world stage?
Let’s be clear: our military deserves better than this. America is a superpower, and it should operate like one. While leftist politicians may dismiss these failures, conservatives know what’s at stake. It’s past time we hold those in charge accountable. Can the American people really afford more left-side military mishaps at such a steep price?
