Hegseth's Pastor CRASHES, Calls for Executions

July 26, 2026 | Doug Wilson, Pete Hegseth’s reported spiritual adviser, told an LGBTQ interviewer that execution could be the maximum penalty for homosexual behavior in his ideal system, then said as many as 10 to 20 people in the administration share his ideology.

He also defended stripping rights from women, rejected marital consent as a criminal issue in some cases, and openly said he wants marriage equality overturned.

A pastor with that worldview now has access to the Pentagon, influence in powerful circles, and a stated desire to turn civil rights into sins punishable by the state.

Ring of Fire's Josh G. explains.


This man is INSANE! Americans should shun this throwback. But instead of that, in Trump’s dystopia and regime, he is close to the levers of power, which makes the man even more dangerous. — © Mark Alexander

Pete Hegseth's Pastor Wants Gay Men Prosecuted for Gay Sex

July 21, 2026 | In February, Doug Wilson made headlines after giving a sermon at the Pentagon as part of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s monthly Christian worship service. Wilson, the lead pastor at Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho, holds a number of controversial views: He believes the U.S. should become a Christian theocracy, married women shouldn’t have the right to vote, and gay sex should be illegal.

In his first interview with an LGBTQ publication, Wilson talks about his connections to Hegseth and others in the Trump administration. He estimates that 10 to 20 people in the government are aligned with his radical ideology. He explains that he thinks trans people are “sad,” certain elements of his idea of “homosexual behavior” should be punished by execution and in certain cases of marital rape, both parties should be disciplined.

“UNCLOSETED with Spencer Macnaughton” is a new podcast by Uncloseted Media, an investigative LGBTQ-focused non-profit news publication. …


The cr** that this man spews is unbelievable! Doug Wilson is dangerous, backward, and unenlightened. He should be kept well away from the corridors of power. — © Mark Alexander

The Women Who Believe That Women Should Lose the Right to Vote

THE NEW YORK TIMES: Adherents to biblical patriarchy support household voting: One household, one vote — the husband’s. They say the idea is catching on.

When they prayed on the Sunday after Valentine’s Day, as on other Sundays, most of the women at King’s Way Reformed Church in the old mining town of Prescott, Ariz., wore dainty kerchiefs knotted over their hair to show devotion to God. Marybelle East, 36, wore hers all the time, she said — seven days a week — “for him to see that I submit to his authority.” Her husband’s authority, that is.

Her head scarf is a physical reminder of biblical patriarchy, the kind of marriage the church preaches. “It keeps me from running my mouth,” she said.

To her and the other women, patriarchy also means ceding their political voices to their husbands. They believe America would be better off if women could not vote.

The Easts and their children had driven two hours from the Phoenix area to hear Dale Partridge, the 40-year-old pastor based on the outskirts of Prescott, in a brick-and-glass events space set between a regional airport and a modest golf course.

On social media, the pastor has attracted a following by posting incendiary commentary: railing against feminists, Catholics and gay people, describing immigration as “national suicide,” and labeling Islam and Hinduism “demonic.” He also calls for erasing women’s suffrage, which he lists as one reason “the world is falling apart.”

The 1920 passage of the 19th Amendment, the landmark legislative achievement of the movement to make women equal citizens, made it possible for women across America to vote. But for Mr. Partridge and a growing number of like-minded Christians, it drove America into national decline. Instead, they support “household voting.” One household, one vote — the husband’s. » | Vivian Yee | Reporting from Prescott, Ariz. | Thursday, April 2, 2026

Capitalism Hits Home: The State of Women in the US in 2025

Oct 17, 2025 | Women in the U.S. are under political, economic, social, and reproductive siege. The rights we fought for, like abortion rights, are now fully available in only nine states. The Trump regime has attacked diversity, equity, and inclusion programs as well as the employers offering such programs. As an illustration of the effects of these attacks, more than 300,000 African American women in the U.S. have lost their jobs. At the same time, women are joining their sisters worldwide in opting out of both marriage and childbearing despite the pressures of the Trump administration for women to return to the role of household slaves to their husbands.
