Hegseth has Protestant only Good Friday service at the Pentagon.

From Yahoo and MSN. His ego is out of control. On another topic, most Brits are begging Charles not to go to Washington.

Hegseth like all true KKK members is also anti-Catholic

Many people don't realize that the second iteration of the Ku Klux Klan (in the 1920s) was more anti-Catholic than anti-Black.

So this tracks.

The Pentagon has invited more than 3,500 employees to attend a Good Friday service at its in-house chapel. Except it’s only for Protestants, not Catholics.

Just a friendly reminder: There will be a Protestant Service (No Catholic Mass) for Good Friday today at the Pentagon Chapel,” reads a Friday email sent by Air Force leadership, a copy of which was shared by an employee.

I guess so the Catholics know their kind ain’t welcome,” said this employee, who requested anonymity to speak about internal communications. “It’s so ridiculous.”

A Pentagon spokesperson confirmed it is not hosting another, separate religious service for Catholic employees.

The Protestant service is the only service scheduled in the Pentagon chapel today,” they said in a statement....

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a far-right evangelical Christian, has tried to infuse his religious views into Pentagon activities.

White Christian Nationalists do not consider Catholics REAL Christians. Because Pete Kegseth's Minster of the Church of Disinformation and Ignorance told him Catholics were demons. Because Pope Leo called the snowflake out for using scripture to validate war, killing and brutality.

Because the Secretary of War Crimes can't take the truth, needs to dehumanize his adversaries and confuses depravity with nobility.

Yeah, the KKK is the perfect landing point for the likes of Pete Hegseth. He's earned his spot.
