Is this the Onion?
I mean, I wouldn't doubt it's real, but it surely sounds like a joke.

Lol! The US government is a bad joke...
The bad joke is that we let them dumb down the people here for so long that they elected a pedophile for a second term after he set out to revenge his fallen partner he had killed to prevent him squealing
If you made a movie with this exact plot 20 years ago it would get slaughtered for being unbelievable

Idiocracy was a satire. Now it's closer to a documentary. Let's hope it doesn't end up being "a better timeline".
Yeah, we're all crying, no one's laughing.
Lol! The US government is a bad joke...
Cheers.
The context of Hegseth's remark and the reactions of his co-hosts indicate he was joking.
Important context in there.
Thank you.
No, but it's just news-cycle stirrup by the trump administration (IMO).
What about talking about what they are doing not what they are saying (that they ate doing)?
Drink up, Pete! You can't see cirrhosis either!
Wait, I remember this headline, but is this from the same clown or is this just funny?
I wondered too. Holy sweet illiterate baby Jesus... it's real
Fox News host Pete Hegseth has said on air that he has not washed his hands for 10 years because "germs are not a real thing".
Speaking on Fox and Friends, Hegseth said the infectious micro-organisms did not exist because they could not be seen with the naked eye.
"I inoculate myself," added the Harvard and Princeton graduate.
His remarks came after co-hosts Ed Henry and Jedediah Bila made fun of him for eating left-over pizza.
"My 2019 resolution is to say things on air that I say off air," Hegseth added.
Jfc.
Fuck that guy. Seriously.
But we should read the fucking article if we’re going to quote it.
Next sent sentence:
Mr Hegseth later told USA Today that his remarks were intended to be a joke.
Maybe he was covering his ass, maybe it was a joke. But this is like the last thing on an incredibly long list of things to try and go after for.
Pretty sure it's the former...
Read this in a tired state of mind and wondered why Hegseth would deny the existence of germans. But I guess there are less germans than germs, so it would be more plausible to do this, than to deny germs.
I should go back to bed.
TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!!
Can't, am not even in bed now :(
Every time that shitshow gets dumber I am less surprised.
So, did kegsbreath actually say that?
Edit: just read through the comments on here and, yes, he did say it. Fucks sake.
Satire is dead, isn't it?
dammit i didn't want to start day drinking at 9 am on a monday but here we are
We all know his history and how ridiculous it is that he has the job he has, etc.
But to read an article from a handful of years ago talking about him as the random worthless propaganda TV host he was at the time.. it somehow still stings.
Hey, btw this guys pastor doesn’t think women should have the right to vote. The military has been actively purging women.
They’re told it’s a bad idea because ‘the men would be distracted with their natural instinct to protect women’
"protect".
We know how these people think.
His attitude towards women really makes me wonder why he now has to have his mommy-wife accompany him to Pentagon meetings?
Is it that he needs her to do his job for him and/or keep him from accidentally drunk texting classified military plans to the wrong journalists again?
Or is it like a control thing? Like a paranoia the hostage might try to escape or signal they're in danger if he doesn't keep an eye on her? Not to try and make any excuse for her for deciding to marry this guy, but he does have a history of domestic abuse and I really cannot comprehend wtf the logic is?
"Women are too emotional and incompetent to serve in the military," but also, "I need to bring my wife to classified work meetings so that I can (supposedly) do my job leading the military"...?
Maybe I'm just too emotional to see the flawless logic? Or for expecting there to be logic in anything he does.
sad that i cant tell of this is true
Real. Which is really not better.

On that note, I'm looking for volunteers to scale the great ice wall with me. We will prove the earth is flat and the governments have been lying to us (for no reason). /s
But he can see Jesus?
"I can't see germs so they aren't real" sounds like the kind of meaningless strawman "got 'em!" argument he might make against atheism or whatever. It would be stupid then, too.
But no, he of course did the more sincere, more stupider straightforward version of that statement.
But he can see Jesus?
Well he will if he keeps this up
Pfft you think if heaven existed Hegseth would get in?
You can see certain bacteria with the naked eye though. Don't even need the witch glass in a microscope
He spills enough alcohol on his hands that it kills the germs.
You can imagine the queues of smart people waiting in line to copy his homework when he was at school.
Good old Pete goes around with penis fingers, just like a real man.
Keep feeling Pete, I'm sure the bullet is on the right hand side...
Soooo much hpv
Give that man a demon core. It can't hurt him.
I can't see his brain, must not be real either.
Ewwww
Cult of stupidity.
How does he handle oxygen?
Same way he handles everything - copious amounts of alcohol.
Wearing plastic covers in the shower? Or no showers too? Bathing is overrated, or what?
"I can't see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch, therefore they don't."
I read Germans and was like, "tru"
Mark my words. If you're in the United States, modern medicine will become increasingly difficult to obtain, and that which is available will be out of date.
That’s been the trend, yeah. We’re at the stage where they start to purge the masses, or have we not noticed?
Can't see any sanity in him
I can't See him in RL so he is not real.
If you can blindfold him, you can do whatever you want to him.
Ewwww
I welcome him to lick a hospital floor
Another round of is this the onion or is this true? Both are an equal possibility and I hate it
is this the onion or is this true?
Not the Onion: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2019/feb/11/germs-are-not-real-fox-news-host-pete-hegseth
why do these people want the populace to get sick?
Well c'mon little guys! What are you waiting for?
