Politics bible Pete hegseth pulp fiction
Pete Hegseth solemnly read out a fake Bible verse from Pulp Fiction and nobody in the room appeared to notice
Magas are at war with… well, a lot of people right now. But even amidst all the chaos, one fight keeps rising to the top, and that’s with the Catholic church, of all things.
President Donald Trump keeps meme-attacking the Pope on Truth Social and the resulting fallout keeps dragging his administration into the muck. All of Trump’s lackeys are being asked about it and actually sticking up for the President in the press.
And then there’s Pete Hegseth. The Secretary of Defense, sorry, War just keeps on praying.
What did he read for his latest prayer meeting? Glad you asked. Here’s a clip. See if it sounds familiar.

The lack of respect for the Bible, Catholicism, and Maga followers is off the charts here.
He didn’t even take the time to check what he was reading. It’s a perfect microcosm of this administration’s cosplaying Christianity.
The replies on Twitter couldn’t believe what they heard.

This would be a two or three week news story in a previous administration, and might even lead to the resignation of the defense secretary. He literally fabricated a Biblical quote, based off of a movie, while pretending to be a pious Christian.
But under Trump, we’ll have moved… https://t.co/MSRGCr8ByJ

What Hegsdeath prayed was not just wrong, it was almost completely wrong. Did anyone notice? Tarantino created the speech by using the last line (only real part) Adding King James-style flourishes Borrowing phrases from other sources like Kurosawa films, and martial arts films pic.twitter.com/3D4SbXKU3q

They’re going after the pope now so it’s obvious they’re gonna say the Bible was false and they’re gonna rewrite it. But they’re gonna add Trump’s name instead.
