This Fox News presenter hasn’t washed his hands in 10 years – the only 5 replies you need
Fox News presenter Pete Hegseth went viral after he told viewers how he hadn’t washed his hands in 10 years because he doesn’t believe in germs.
And the reason he doesn’t believe in germs is because he doesn’t believe in anything he can’t see.
Fox News’ @PeteHegseth admits, unprompted, that he hasn’t washed his hands in 10 years.
“Germs are not a real thing,” Pete says. “I can’t see them, therefore they’re not real.” pic.twitter.com/9hsAb9YA9j

‘My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air. I don’t think I’ve washed my hands for 10 years. Really. I don’t really wash my hands ever
‘I inoculate myself. Germs are not a real thing I can’t see them, therefore they are not real. I can’t get sick.’
And these are the only 5 replies you need.

In 1846, 28-year-old Hungarian Dr. Ignes Semmelweis began studying why women in maternity wards died at a rate five times higher under doctors' care than in a midwives' clinic.

Good thing this isn’t the network that half the country uses to make decisions about science-based issues like climate change or we’d be in real trouble https://t.co/VTlJGh38Tf

I once worked with a sous chef who told me that washing your hands, showering and cleaning your body was making humanity weaker. These people are real and they’re very stupid. https://t.co/q2BTp7YrDv
