USS Abraham Lincoln Returning Home After Being “Sunk” Three Times By Iran
Online claims of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier’s demise were greatly exaggerated…
In yet another example of Iranian social media claims not matching up with reality, the nuclear powered Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is returning home after a 286 day deployment and 5 days of rest at port in Thailand. The ship was untouched by any signs of combat, despite the IRGC claiming on at least three separate occasions that they had sunk the mighty vessel with drones and missile strikes.
Iranian aligned accounts even spread AI videos and video game clips of a ship sinking, arguing that the clips showed the Abraham Lincoln. Left wing commentators celebrated the news, only to scrub their posts after it was revealed that the information was fake.
The ship was cleaned at port with no signs of damage from attack. It has now left Thailand on a return trip to the US and the Naval Air Station North Island in Coronado (San Diego).

🚨 Every time the Islamic Republic comes under intense pressure, Western-based leftists recycle the same old “reformist” card to rehabilitate the very people who helped build and preserve the system.
They rush to give the Islamic Republic political breathing room by repackaging… https://t.co/bS5Ay1pM6t pic.twitter.com/AbULVBtFxk
