Military Support wrote, “This is —- of the US Navy he is stationed on the USS —- he thinks Charlie Kirk deserved to be M*rderLd for expressing his views.

2026-03-17 Pete Hegseth’s pastor Brooks Potteiger under Doug Wilson – prayed for James Talarico’s death during a podcast. He said, ”…public enemies. These are the orcs at the gate. You’re not called to love the barbarian horde that is planning to break into your city and – you know – pillage, plunder, rape, and mutilate you and your people. You don’t love that horde. That is your enemy! And you pray! This is where you have imprecatory Psalms. This is where you pray strongly. The Psalmnist [not a word] is not shy. God, destroy them! Make them as dung on the ground…I pray that God kills him. Ultimately, that means killing his heart and raising him up to new life in Christ. That’s the first thing…”

The interviewer interjected, ”We want him crucified…with Christ..”

Potteiger continued, ”That’s exactly right!”

The interviewer, ”I want him to be I think Saul of Tarsus, Talarico of Tarsus. That’s what I want. Who would say I was holding the garments while they stoned Steven, and now I’m the – yeah – that’s, that’s what we want”.

Potteiger continued, ”…Yes. We want death and new life, right? Um, and if it would not be within God’s will to do so, stop him by any means necessary, oh God.”

The question is, was this interpretation of scripture, or was it intentional? What was also noted by some listeners (not verified): At the beginning of the podcast, the host said, “The man of Washington” and Brooks replied, “Not yet – soon”.

2026-03-30 Trump publicly threatened to bomb desalination plants, electric plants and oil wells in Iran. Bombing civilian power and infrastructure is a war crime. When pressed about this during a press brief, Karoline Leavitt said, “Um, look – the president has made it quite clear to the Iranian regime at this moment in time as evidenced by the statement that you just read, that their best move is to make a deal – or else the United States armed forces has capabilities beyond their wildest imagination and the president is not afraid to use them…” at which point the journalist reiterated ‘war crime’ concerns. Karoline Leavitt continued, “That’s not what I said, Garrett, and you’re saying the word potential for a reason, ‘cuz I’m sure some experts are telling you that in your ear to try to ask me that question. Of course, this administration and the United States armed forces will always act within the confines of the law, but with respect to achieving the full objectives of Operation Epic Fury, President Trump is going to move forward unabated, and he expected – expects – the Iranian regime to make a deal with the administration”.
