“One Nation Under God”: Defense Secretary Hegseth Leads Prayer at White House Governors Dinner

Before policy discussions and formal remarks, the evening began with prayer. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth invoked faith, gratitude, and protection — offering prayers for President Trump, national leaders, and the men and women serving overseas. In a time of division, the moment served as a reminder of the values that have guided the nation for generations: humility, responsibility, and trust in something greater than politics.
