Hegseth reposts story tying him to church with pastors who say women shouldn’t vote
The Hill ^ | 08/08/25 | Amalia Huot-Marchand

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reposted a CNN segment about a pastor who believes women should not vote on the social media platform X.

The segment largely focuses on Pastor Doug Wilson, a Christian nationalist who cofounded the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC) in Idaho.

The report shows Wilson advocating for a Christian nation and entertaining the idea that women should not vote.

“I would like to see this nation being a Christian nation, and I would like this world to be a Christian world,” Wilson said.

The clip also shows fellow pastor Toby Sumpter, saying, “In an ideal society, we would vote as households,” and Jared Longshore, another pastor, saying he would support repealing the 19th Amendment.

Amy Prince, a parishioner interviewed for the segment, said her husband “is the head of our household, and I do submit to him.”

Wilson, in the video, also says he does not believe women should hold leadership positions in the military, nor should they be able to fill high-profile combat roles.

This echoes a similar sentiment from Hegseth. In December 2024, the Pentagon chief said, “I’m straight up just saying that we should not have women in combat roles. It hasn’t made us more effective, hasn’t made us more lethal, has made fighting more complicated.”

The CNN video shows a video of Pete Hegseth attending a service at Wilson’s church.

This comes as the Trump administration has sought to eradicate “anti-Christian” bias in the government, even issuing a February executive order on the matter.

Hegseth hosted a prayer service in the Pentagon earlier this year, which, according to the report segment, has become a monthly event.

Trump also created a White House Faith Office led by Rev. Paula White, who characterizes herself as a “cultural reformer.”

There are many ways they can support Trump without voting.

This is a small fringe group that can’t make anyone else do anything. If Hegseth shares their beliefs (I am not saying he does) then he can’t compel anyone to go along with them either. I am am Orthodox Christian and I am not about to change my beliefs. On the other hand, assuming these people freely join together and accept these doctrines for themselves, I am okay with that. Live and let live.

First amendment.

It's like saying he's an Orthodox Jew or Amish.

He's free to worship with that congregation — they are not responsible for creating policy for the government.

Nothing wrong with trying to correct a mistake.

The ‘Tea App’ and dynamics of dating apps are disturbing. Many modern feminists want the authority of a man, the chivalry of old-fashioned men when it suits them (and only then, otherwise it’s an unwanted ‘ick’), with zero accountability.

They look at ‘equality’ as some sort of ‘buffet’, they want to be selective. E.g. no hard/dangerous/physical jobs, no Selective Service, etc., and initiate divorce even when sacrificing the family - all to ‘upgrade for their happiness’.

I just don’t believe all votes should be equal. Same for very young people that haven’t paid into the system yet. They’re very quick to want socialism/communism because they have nothing YET, there’s an appeal in getting ‘free stuff’. They want the equality of the vote when things aren’t equal.

Flame away.

“How Dramatically Did Women’s Suffrage Change the Size and
Scope of Government?Scope of Government?”

This is an old report, so it doesn’t pick up the latest damage caused by women suffering - which is the pending EXTINCTION of Western Societies caused by mass Third World immigration.

Europeans and other White countries are just starting to figure out that it will take EXTREME VIOLENCE to take back their countries, and even with that, there is no assurance of success. But nothing will happen until they can get their women out of power.

Biased legal system. Like you said, zero accountability. So this is where we are.

FRiend, she is married off, as well.

You are thinking correctly. Such women are great to be with.

I am a fortunate man.

So according to this pastor, women shouldn’t vote and according to Hedgseth women shouldn’t have leadership rolls in the military. Ok

And yet the errant, heretic Paula White is the religious leader at the White House and has the ear of the Commander in Chief.

I would say, IMHO, that the countries slide started with women voting and putting liberal women and soy boys in office.

It's not about taking votes away from anybody. It's about uniting the interests of the households.

If you have a situation where a large number of marriagable woman prefer to by themselves, like sex-in-the-city, you have bigger problems than the electorate.

Wouldn’t female head of household be single women, divorcees, and single moms?
