Mike Levin, a Democratic member of Congress from California, has sounded the alarm over conditions onboard the warship, which is in its fifth month of combat operations against Jran. He described the lot of the crew on X as "moldy showers, broken toilets, laundry down for weeks, long stretches with no hot water, a meal that came down to half a cup of rice and two tortillas. No soap, deodorant, or toothpaste!"

I have learned to accept the giant black legs in me now. After all, it is not exactly like I have a choice in the matter. They still hurt, probably just as much as they did on the day they went in, getting towards a century ago, but the pain is different now: I have, I suppose you might say, kind of subsumed it. It happens to us all in time. None of us are exempt from that pain. You get a throb or an ache or an injury or an illness. Then you realise: "That's absolutely part of me now, that pain. That is now an element of my unique voice, playing this familiar tune? So you move forward, because it's the only choice, because getting back to the place before the pain turned up is an affront to nature. Even though the idea of 'nature' is up for debate, the idea that that is an affront to it is not.

A cartoon of a balding man holding a large stock pot full of soup in front of a toilet, with a crowd of people nearby chanting “flush the soup”. One person is holding up a sign reading “flush it”. The man is looking back at the crowd, perhaps deciding whether to flush it, or perhaps considering his life choices that led him to this moment.

Photo caption from the article: “Federal agents deploy tear gas as residents protest a federal agent-involved shooting during an immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States on January 14, 2026. The protest comes after a federal agent-involved shooting during immigration enforcement, exactly one week after a federal agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Good.”
