Meet MAGAt Ryan Higgins, the "faith adviser" currently serving as Senior Advisor to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth inside America's Pentagon. Higgins didn't climb the traditional ranks of military leadership or foreign policy scholarship to land this immense power over our Armed Forces. Instead, he rode the coattails of MAGA culture-war loyalty. As a chief architect of Hegseth's ideological crusade, Higgins has spent his time drafting toxic rhetoric and weaponizing the Department of Defense to reshape senior military leadership based on political fealty rather than merit. He is the mastermind behind a new "Office of Religious Affairs," a blatant attempt to entrench right-wing religious nationalism into official military policy under the guise of "spiritual health." His mask completely slipped following a brutal CNN investigative expose revealing a decade-long archive of vile, unhinged internet behavior. His digital footprint is a toxic swamp of explicit bigotry, laid bare by his own unvarnished words: On Immigrants: He lashed out wildly, writing that they "act like barbarians, killing and raping our white women" and calling them "absolute animals" who come from "barbaric cultures which has no place in the western world." On the LGBTQ+ Community: He repeatedly posted attacks during his Pentagon tenure, calling it "the satanic cult of LGBTQ" and mocking a same-sex couple's adoption as "two dudes buying babies." On Women and Reproductive Rights: He compared abortion to the Holocaust, tweeting it was like "saying Nazi concentration camps were ethnic end-of-life care," while calling it "Demonic human sacrifice" and demanding abortion-seekers be tried for murder. On Threatening Democracy: Following the 2020 election, he bragged about buying an assault rifle and tactical gear, declaring, "they can steal an election over my cold dead body." Despite this horrific online history being exposed, the Pentagon is actively circling the wagons. Top leadership immediately shielded him, dismissing the bigotry and declaring him a "valued member" of the team—proving that in the current DOD, culture-war zealotry matters far more than basic human decency or professional conduct.
