Exclusive: Navy weighs renaming carrier slated to honor Black war hero, potentially switching it to Trump
By Haley Britzky, Pamela Brown
The US Navy is working to rename an aircraft carrier under construction that was set to honor a Black sailor hailed for his heroic actions during the attack on Pearl Harbor, three sources familiar with internal discussions told CNN.
During President Donald Trump’s first term, the Navy announced that the Ford-class carrier would be called the USS Doris Miller, recognizing an enlisted sailor who helped defend US forces from Japan’s attack.
It’s unclear what the Navy is seeking to change the name of the carrier to, though two of the sources said there have been internal conversations about renaming it to honor Trump. It would be an unprecedented move to name an aircraft carrier after a sitting president.
Completely outrageous.

@sentdefenderThe U.S. Navy is in the process of renaming the the fourth Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier, USS Doris Miller (CVN-81), named for Messman Second Class Doris Miller, an African American Sailor who received the Navy Cross for his heroic actions during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, according to an exclusive report by CNN.
Currently, it is unclear what the Navy is seeking to change the name of the carrier to, though two of the sources said there have been internal conversations about renaming it to honor President Donald J. Trump. In what would be an unprecedented move to name an aircraft carrier after a sitting President of the United States.

@emeriticusDoris Miller was a hero who operated an anti-aircraft gun during Pearl Harbor despite having no training for it and then proceeded to rescue drowning sailors. He was going to be honored with an aircraft named after him, but now it’s going to be named after a president who carefully organized his life around avoiding military service and believes that those who serve are fools. The icing on the cake for Trump and Vance admin people is that Miller was black. Two birds with one stone: they get to rename a military vessel after a narcissistic and cowardly draft dodger while also undercutting the memorialization of a black service member. You can imagine how satisfied these people must be.

@mjfreeFIRST HARVEY MILK.
NOW DORIE MILLER.
Milk served his country. Trump’s Pentagon erased his name from a Navy ship.
Dorie Miller fought at Pearl Harbor in a SEGREGATED Navy. He saved wounded sailors, grabbed a gun he’d never been trained to use and fought back.
He became the first Black American awarded the Navy Cross.
Now the Navy is stripping HIS name from an aircraft carrier — and replacing it with DONALD TRUMP’S.
The gay veteran erased.
The Black war hero erased and replace with draft-dodger Trump himself?
This isn’t “merit.”
It’s homophobic & racist erasure.
DORIE MILLER EARNED THAT SHIP.
TRUMP CAN KEEP HIS FUCKING NAME OFF IT.

@ColinAllredTXDorie Miller was a Texas son who ran toward danger at Pearl Harbor.
He carried wounded sailors to safety, helped his dying captain, then manned a gun he’d never been trained to use and fought back.
He became the first Black American awarded the Navy Cross. That is the kind of courage we should honor, not erase.

Dittie
@DittiePEDoris Miller had no gunnery training. He was a mess attendant — that’s all the Navy let Black sailors be in 1941. When the bombs hit Pearl Harbor, he ran toward the guns anyway, dragged wounded men to safety, and fought back until he ran out of ammo.
He was the first Black American ever awarded the Navy Cross.
Donald Trump got four draft deferments and a “bone spurs” diagnosis nobody can find a doctor’s name attributed to. He has never worn the uniform, never taken fire, never done a single thing that required courage. Ever.
The Navy named a future carrier after Miller in 2020 — first ever named for an enlisted sailor, first for a Black American. Now they’re reportedly considering stripping his name off it to put Trump’s on instead.
A coward’s name, on a hero’s ship. That should make everyone sick.

He was one of the heroes at Pearl Harbor.
The Military was segregated.
He was awarded a few medals for his bravery that day. The first black man to be so in the Navy.
But sure, name it after Trump. A draft-dodging felon. Got it!

@IAmSophiaNelsonDorie Miller was a bonafide WWII hero. The first black man in the segregated navy to be given the navy cross! Pete Hegseth always renames anything in honor of black or brown people. This cannot be who America is at 250?!! Disgraceful!
Senator Mark Kelly
Senate Democrats
@SenMarkKellyDorie Miller’s bravery at Pearl Harbor is legendary and resulted in him being awarded the Navy Cross. This aircraft carrier shouldn’t be renamed at all, let alone for Donald Trump, who has denigrated servicemembers like Dorie Miller who have paid the ultimate price.

Mike Young
@micyoung75The Navy has already effectively stopped calling it the USS Doris Miller internally. CNN reports it is now referred to by its hull number, CVN-81, even though no rename has been announced. That looks less like deliberation than the name disappearing ahead of the paperwork.
Consider what is being displaced. This was to be the first carrier named for an enlisted sailor and the first named for a Black American, a Pearl Harbor hero who manned a gun he had never trained on and later died in combat. Trump’s name is reportedly among the replacements being discussed. Miller’s family was not even told.

Rick Wilson
@TheRickWilsonSo the USS Doris Miller, our next aircraft carrier, will be renamed the USS Donald Trump.
I think not.
Add this to the list of everything we strip Trump’s name from when the day finally comes. This is a profound insult to service members, veterans, and African Americans.

Some people want to make a point; others want to make a difference. Gaza and the Palestinian issue have become a Trojan horse for domestic agendas that have nothing to do with the Middle East; a mere convenient vehicle to stoke fear, hatred, and antisemitic tropes, or to chase notoriety, without any concern for Palestinians or for serious discourse. Mark Ruffalo’s decision to invoke Gaza while opposing the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger is a textbook example: collapsing unrelated issues, virtue signaling, and ignoring the real-world consequences of this kind of rhetoric.

@leahfiles
If I were president and I wanted to tank the dollar and get rich off it, here is exactly what I would do.
I would hire a Treasury Secretary who already made $3.5 billion crashing another country’s currency. I would put my guy in charge of the agency that approves bank charters. I would install a crypto czar with $200M in crypto holdings and give him an ethics waiver so nobody could challenge it.
Then I would sign an executive order banning the government from ever creating a digital dollar so there was no competition.
Then I would have my family launch their own private digital dollar. My family takes 75% of net profits. I would grow it to $4.6 billion in circulation and route a $2 billion Abu Dhabi sovereign fund deal through it to prove it works.
Then I would get Congress to pass a law requiring every stablecoin in the country to hold short-term Treasury bills. Now every dollar of my digital currency is a forced buyer of government debt. Brookings projects $2.3 trillion in captive demand by 2030.
Then I would have my OCC guy grant my family’s company a federal bank charter. Now I can issue my digital dollar with federal authority.
Then I would have my Treasury Secretary weaken the actual dollar. Bond buybacks that suppress yields but tank the currency. Build a $950 billion war chest for more. Let the debt hit $40 trillion. Dollar index drops to 99. Gold goes to highest point ever.
Then I would kill the Corporate Transparency Act and delete the FinCEN beneficial ownership database. That was the one law that required every shell company in America to report who actually owns it. Without it, nobody can trace who is buying my stablecoin, who is routing money through it, or where the profits land.
Then I would let the loop run. Weaker dollar drives demand for “stable” digital alternatives. The law I passed forces those alternatives to buy T-bills. That funds the government’s debt. My family takes profit on every transaction. Foreign central banks walking away from Treasuries get replaced by legally mandated stablecoin reserves my family controls.
Then I would use sanctions to start cutting countries off from the dollar system entirely. And when those countries need a new way to transact in dollars, the only federally chartered private digital dollar in existence is mine. They can buy it through shell companies nobody can trace because I deleted the ownership database.
I just built a toll booth on the global financial system. I take a cut every time someone uses the dollar. And I made it so nobody can see who is paying.
And every single step I just described has already happened.
So what does that mean for you and I?
The reason the United States can borrow at low rates and keep your mortgage and your car payment and your import prices stable is because foreign central banks hold trillions in dollar reserves. That system has always been public. The benefit went to everyone. Lower borrowing costs, cheaper goods , and the single biggest economic advantage any country has ever had.
What I just described is the privatization of that function. The entity buying the debt is no longer a central bank acting in the public interest. It is a private company taking 75% of net profits for one family. The reserve function used to generate a public benefit. Now it generates a private fee.
Your purchasing power shrinks every time the dollar weakens. Your 401k buys less in real terms. Everything you import costs more. And every time the dollar drops, demand for the private digital alternative goes up. The one the president’s family owns. The one that by law must buy government debt.
You absorb the cost of a weakening dollar. His family collects the profit. That is the trade.
The enforcement mechanism to stop a sitting president from doing this? There isn’t one. Former White House ethics lawyer Richard Painter says it would be a violation for literally any other federal employee, but not the president.
Nobody voted for this. No one was asked. There was no debate. There is no enforcement mechanism. There is no one investigating it. The Senate tried and it was blocked.
This is the largest conflict of interest in American history happening in broad daylight while everyone argues about something else.
So what do you do? Share this. Make it impossible to ignore. Send it to your representative, your senator, every journalist you follow. We make them answer for it.
Because the only thing protecting this scheme right now is the fact that not enough people understand it yet.

When the Democrats regain power, we need to burn this whole sh*tty Trump era to the ground. Take his name off of everything.
First by passing legislation about felons running for any federal, state or city office. Next, the people found in the Epstein Files who’ve committed crimes must be prosecuted (prison). Laws about Congress trading in the stock market.
One of the biggest things of all is to revamp the Supreme Court with term limits. I’m sure there are many more things that need to be changed.
But, first and foremost, the Democrats need to stop being so docile.

As a Palestinian living in the US, I realized from day one that far too many of those who claim to be “fighting for Palestinian freedom” in the West are nothing than grifters who exploit our suffering, turn our cause into a trend, and use Palestinian pain to build their own platforms, careers, and audiences.
And the moment Palestinians themselves challenge their narrative, criticize Hamas, reject authoritarianism, or refuse to fit neatly into their ideological worldview, suddenly our Palestinian voices are no longer welcome—or worse, we are smeared as traitors for daring to think and speak for ourselves.
Here’s what’s never been asked, seriously, inside this so-called “pro-Palestinian” movement: what do you actually stand for?
A democratic Palestine? Free speech? Political pluralism? Equal rights? A two-state solution, one state, peace — or just permanent war rebranded as “resistance”?
Do Palestinian lives matter when Palestinians are murdered, tortured, imprisoned, or silenced by Hamas? Do our freedoms matter when the oppressor isn’t Israel? Do Palestinians get to decide our own political future, or are Western activists going to decide it for us while shouting slogans thousands of miles away?
Palestine is not your revolutionary cosplay. Palestinians are not props for your ideological fantasies. And our suffering is not a career opportunity.
If your “solidarity” requires Palestinians to shut up whenever our experiences contradict your politics and narrative, then you are the one who should shut the fuck up.

Authorities have been unable to contact or locate 3 individuals from these closed cases.
Police are currently conducting urgent searches to track them down, fearing there could be additional undiscovered victims.
Investigations also revealed a broader history of Jeju police manipulating internal systems (KICS) using team leader logins to “self-approve” case dismissals to lighten workloads, leading to a complete system-wide overhaul.
