Hegseth reposts video featuring pastors opposing women's right to vote
The man who oversees the nation’s military has reposted a video on X, formerly Twitter, about a Christian nationalist church that included various pastors saying women should no longer be allowed to vote and should “submit” to their husbands. The extraordinary repost from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was made Thursday night. It illustrates his deep and personal connection to a Christian nationalist pastor with extreme views on the role of religion and women. In the post, Hegseth commented on a report by CNN examining Doug Wilson, cofounder of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches. The report featured various pastors of the denomination advocating the repeal of women’s right to vote from the Constitution and parishioners saying that women should “submit” to their husbands.
