Pete Hegseth confessed to never washing his hands after his co-host told viewers he had been eating day-old pizza on set.
A Fox News host told viewers live on air that he has not washed his hands in a decade because “germs are not a real thing”.
On the right-wing channel’s breakfast show, Fox And Friends, Pete Hegseth claimed germs don’t exist because they cannot be seen by the naked eye.
The presenter said he has improved his health since he stopped washing his hands because it is a way of “inoculating” himself.
