Navy's New Acting Secretary Faces Past Comments Scrutiny

It's April 25, California news today starts now, AI powered and ready.

Huntsau, a Navy combat veteran and former Republican Senate candidate from Virginia, just

stepped in as Acting Secretary of the Navy.

His old comments from a 2023 campaign interview are resurfacing big time.

Back then, South warned that Lovers Point had turned into a hotspot for WCA and witchcraft

influences.

He said Virginia needed to steer clear of that path.

Speaking is, Lovers Point sits in Pacific Grove, not Monterey like he mentioned.

That coastal spot has deep Christian history.

It was once known as Lovers of Jesus Point and Pacific Grove kicked off in 1875 as a

methodist summer retreat before growing into a residential community.

South blurred the lines between WCA and witchcraft in his remarks, which aren't exactly

the same.

Now, with him in this temporary leadership spot, folks are digging into his past statements.

Hsau follows John Fielin's resignation from the Navy's Secretary role amid reports

he faced a choice to quit or get fired.

Another shake-up in Navy brass under the Trump administration, and South's words keep

echoing as eyes stay on him.
