Like my mother's old pressure cooker, when the pressure builds to a certain level, the valve must release it. In this case, it was this news about the SecDef that triggered an email to Senator Britt.
Pete Hegseth’s recent post on X, sharing the CNN documentary with Pastor Doug Wilson of the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches and adding “All of Christ for All of Life,” is troubling:
How does the SecDef have time to post on X, given his vast responsibilities to preserve national security? Hegseth should be focused on ensuring that the U.S. defense capability will counter the threat from China. Instead, he seems focused on culture war issues like cruelly discharging trans people from the service. China’s president Xi Jinping and Russia’s president Vladimir Putin must relish every moment U.S. officials are distracted from their core responsibilities.
Also troubling is the inferred endorsement of a theology that repeals a woman’s right to vote and returns women to the household to submit to their husbands. Senator, if you can’t vote, you certainly can’t serve in the U.S. Senate. I hope you regret your vote to confirm Hegseth as SecDef.
Prices are rising. Legal immigrants and U.S. citizens are being kidnapped by masked ICE goons, detained and deported without due process. Off-and-on tariffs are stalling business investment. After being interviewed by the Deputy Attorney General, Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to a minimum security prison, suggesting a quid pro quo to preserve the president’s “innocence.” The president’s new golf resort in Scotland adds to a growing list of corrupt actions, from the meme coin to accepting a 747 from Qatar that will require close to $1 billion to serve as Air Force One. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is ongoing, while innocent Palestinians are dying in Gaza with no clear path to freeing the remaining Israeli hostages.
The Republican Congress is enabling this authoritarian regime. You’ve lost all moral standing and will be judged harshly by history. Is this the legacy you want to leave for your children?
