Comedian John Oliver torched Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the “floating nightmare” on the USS Abraham Lincoln — after one sailor's mom said her son likened it to a scene out of the Fox TV show American Horror Story.

“Now, Pete Hegseth has claimed that the ship's conditions are being ‘completely misrepresented’ by those who are actually experiencing them, saying we make sure that every ship, every crew, every captain has everything we can provide at every single moment,” Oliver said Sunday on his HBO show, Last Week Tonight. “And if he means to go certifiably insane, I'm inclined to agree with him there.”

He added: “You never want to be in a position where you describe your job as a scene out of American Horror Story.”

“Honestly, if you absolutely have to choose a Ryan Murphy show for your workplace to resemble, the obvious answer is All's Fair,” he said, referring to the creator's Hulu drama about an all-female law firm. “Yeah, that's the Ryan Murphy production you're going to want to be stuck in, not this floating f** nightmare.”

In response to an inquiry from The Independent, a Pentagon spokesperson declined Monday to address Oliver's remarks and instead referred back to Hegseth's assertions Friday.

Last week, military mother Danielle Rappa told NBC News that her son, who's aboard the Lincoln, was initially “in good spirits” but that his mental health had “started getting very dark,” during extended combat operations in President Donald Trump's war against Iran.

“He describes the overall experience as a scene out of the American Horror Story, where he feels like everybody is dead but they don't know it yet,” she said.

In a prepared statement, White House spokesperson Anna Kelly told The Independent, “The President cares about our troops more than anyone, and he is ensuring our brave servicemembers have all the resources they need to be successful as the United States Military continues to economically strangle the Iranian regime.”

The Lincoln —a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with a crew of more than 5,000 sailors and Marines — left its home port of San Diego on November 21 and has since set a record of more than 240 uninterrupted days at sea, according to The Associated Press.

The USS George Washington is en route from Asia to replace the Lincoln as one of two aircraft carriers stationed in the Middle East, according to reports.

The Lincoln's deployment was supposed to end in May, and deteriorating conditions on board —including reported food shortages, broken toilets and moldy showers — have caused morale to plummet, according to family members.

Last week, CNN reported that a sailor had jumped overboard August 3 and was rescued about an hour later following what a Navy official described as a mental health episode. Multiple others have also tried to jump off the ship but were stopped by fellow crew members, relatives told the Military Times.

On Friday, Trump sparked outrage after being asked by a reporter whether the Lincoln's deployment had gone on too long.

“No, not nearly enough,” Trump said.

Karen Bramlett, whose grandson is serving on the Lincoln, told NPR that he's "depressed" and that his dreams about Navy service "have been shattered" by his time on the ship.

“Donald Trump needs to be ashamed of himself to let them suffer the way that they're doing,” she said. “They're over there fighting for our country. And this is the thanks they get? They can't even get help from him or his administration.”
