A square photographic artistic meme "Holy War" © 2026 by Matt Wuerker, Pulitzer Prize Winner, as follows: On a light purple background can be seen a "photo op": The head of the "Department of War" Pete Hegseth is seen on top of a fake horse (that has wheels) labeled with red religious crosses everywhere. Hegseth is wearing a suit of armor like in medieval times with sword and all and is waving around a Trump bible in his right hand while holding medieval headgear labeled "HEGSETH" in his left. Behind Hegseth is a big flag on the wall labeled "HOLY WAR". A photographer is kneeling on the floor and taking photographs of Hegseth. Standing on a ladder next to Hegseth is a caricature of what appears to be Karoline Leavitt wearing a huge cross on a chain around her neck holding a can of hair spray and spraying in the direction of Hegseth. Standing on the left of Leavitt is a caricature of J.D. Vance in blue suit, white shirt and red tie with a cross on his lapel. Vance is holding a stack of Trump bibles. On the right of Hegseth behind the horse is a frowning Pope Leo XIV who can be seen standing in a doorway looking at the bizarre scene. Hegseth is speaking into two voice bubbles referencing the pope: "OPPOSING THE WAR? CALLING FOR PEACE? INVOKING GOD?" "WHO DOES THAT GUY THINK HE IS?!"
