Despite my bio clearly stating I am not affiliated with @DOGE, despite having this handle and name for years now, prior to Elon even dabbling in government, my profile was locked and I now have a "parody account" tag. I think it's time for a fucking rebrand.
Per @Liz_Friden The U.S. is sending the USS Theodore Roosevelt carrier strike group and the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit to the Middle East, two U.S. officials confirm to Fox News. The ships will arrive in the Middle East by the end of November, the officials said. These new deployments will add about 10,000 Sailors and Marines to the Middle East.
The USS Roosevelt will be the third aircraft carrier in the Middle East, joining the USS George H.W. Bush which arrived to the region in April, and the USS George Washington which arrived in mid-August to replace the USS Abraham Lincoln. This will provide more options for the U.S. as President Trump is reportedly considering ramping up strikes on Iran after the Midterms.
The USS Roosevelt departed its home port of San Diego on Sunday and the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit deployed from San Diego on Monday along with the Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group. The Marine Expeditionary Unit and Amphibious Ready Group typically include about 4,200 Marines and Sailors. The USS Roosevelt carrier strike group includes about 6,000 Sailors.

The operation at the major incident at Wainwright base is continuing tonight, including the deployment of personnel via parachute to the local medical centre. CAF is working on notifying next of kin before announcing the number of casualties, CBC reports.
Man, the way I'm seeing some folks on the ground in/near Wainwright talk about what's happening really has me worried for what I'm going to hear on the news come tomorrow morning.
Several hours into the event at CFB Wainwright, very little, if anything, is known.
What's confirmed,
- "Serious incident" sparked a major fire at the base.
- Casualties including fatalities.
- Fire was at training area.
CBC says they spoke with a physician who works in the emergency department at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton, which is roughly 112 miles from Wainwright, and they said the hospital was in Code Orange to help prepare for a large influx of patients.
We are dealing with a serious incident at CFB Wainwright, and are fully engaged with federal, provincial and local authorities. Our priority remains the welfare of our members, their families and their community, and my thoughts are with all those affected by this incident.
