Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared a video about Christian domination in the age of Donald Trump — and his since sparked controversy.

Late Thursday, Hegseth posted to his X platform, “All of Christ for All of Life,” sharing a report from CNN that profiled Douglas Wilson, a self-described Christian nationalist pastor who has built an international network of dozens of churches, schools and a college since the 1970s. Hegseth has been identified as a prominent follower.

Wilson’s vision of a Christian society includes “women as an individual shouldn’t be able to vote.” His fellow pastors agreed — with one claiming, “in my ideal society, we would vote as a households.”

      Project 2025 was public for about a year before the election. People voted for this.

        I know several boomers who still believe Trump knew/knows nothing about Project 2025 and the amount of stuff getting completed on the Project 2025 is just purely coincidental. They cannot handle having been unable to tell Trump was lying about that, so cognitive dissonance it is

          I can’t decide what’s worse. Trump knowing and enacting Project 2025, or Trump being too dumb and ignorant to know about what his own party has been publically cooking up and too easily manipulated to resist when his employees want him to enact Project 2025 policies…

          Why do people think that being dumb, weak and easily manipulated are somehow better?

          There was a post on Lemmy the other day about Musk “actually not being that bad”, because he’s not a Nazi at heart and only plays the role of a Nazi for personal benefit. Tbh, that’s even worse, not an excuse.
