<p>These &#8220;geniuses&#8221; must believe (in their own head) they are playing 10-dimensional chess and that the rest of the world are stupid.  Meet Pete Hegseth, the unqualified clown that is a main part of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organizational_structure_of_the_United_States_Department_of_Defense" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">civilian chain of command</a> for the U.S. military.  The few clips I&#8217;ve seen of his briefings are full of elementary school style lies and bravado.  He&#8217;s also been on a warpath of <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/hegseth-fires-chief-staff-us-111520011.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">purging the qualified leaders from the military</a> without any explanation/justification.</p>



<p>His latest <a href="https://variety.com/2026/film/news/pete-hegseth-pulp-fiction-fake-bible-verse-prayer-service-1236723446/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">act of buffoonery came in the form of a prayer service</a> at the Pentagon (something he implemented violating the rule regarding separation of church and state) where he used a movie quote that actor Samuel Jackson had used in the movie, Pulp Fiction (written and directed by Quentin Tarantino).</p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe title="Pete Hegseth reads a prayer adapted from the movie &#039;Pulp Fiction&#039;" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/AHlIYTOtwDI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div></figure>



<p>While I believe that one can say anything they want to in their personal prayer, the question does become &#8220;how appropriate is it in this type of group setting?&#8221;  This is exactly what the <a href="https://blog.murasama.net/2026/04/16/pope-leo-xiv-calls-out-those-who-use-god-and-religion-for-military-economic-or-political-gain/" data-type="post" data-id="3670">Pope was referring to where you have those who are weaponizing faith</a> for their own motives.</p>



<p>People like Hegseth, POTUS, VP, and a lot of these so called religious politicians, are just cosplaying as people of faith.  They are an embarrassment to the United States with their continued debasement of the institutions they are supposed to represent.</p>
