Who Said It Better: Pete Hegseth or Samuel L. Jackson?

from Real-Time Crime · host iHeartPodcasts

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is getting clowned for delivering a “prayer” he said originated from Ezekiel 25:17. The problem is, the rendition he recited was from a scene in Pulp Fiction delivered by actor Samuel L. Jackson. Hegseth said it was a combat search and rescue prayer meant to reflect the biblical passage, however, his words were the very same lines from the movie script. We let you hear the line by line comparison between the two, and then hear who the Pentagon is blaming in its official statement on the controversy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
