A extreme right -wing candidate for Congress in Texas known for his disturbing acrobatics shared a new campaign video on Monday of his lighting on fire with a flamethrower, declaring the United States as a “Christian nation” and demanding the expulsion of Muslims.

Valentina Gómez, a repeated book burner and previously failed Republican candidate who now postulates to represent the 31st Texas Congress District next year, published the inflammatory video in X, which has limited the visibility of the post about concerns about odious behavior.

“His daughters will be raped and his sons decapitated unless we stop Islam once and for all,” says Gomez, 26, in the video before shooting flames in a copy supported from the Qur’an.

“We have finished turning the other cheek,” he continued. “Remember, David did not pray for Goliath; he killed him. America is a Christian nation, so those terrorist Muslims can fuck any of the 57 Muslim nations. There is only one true God, and that is the God of Israel.”

Gómez, a burning defender of Donald Trump who could not win a single county when he ran for the Secretary of State of Missouri last year, has repeatedly attacked Muslim Americans in campaign videos, often referring to them as “pedophiles.”

His video occurs when anti-Musulman hatred remains at its highest point after the war in Gaza, said the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in a report issued earlier this year.

In Texas, there have been multiple reports of shattered mosques since the past fall, including three in a single night in May. Last year, a Dallas man was sentenced to 37 years in prison after killing a person and tried to kill four others in a Muslim property business. The Department of Justice called him a hate crime driven by Islamophobia.

This is not the first time that Gomez has the idea of ​​using a flamethrower to transmit his point. During her failed campaign last year, she published a video of her using one to establish a pile of LGBTQ+ books on fire, falsely stating that they were indoctrinating and sexualizing children.

He also carried out a trick last year in which he organized a simulated execution of an immigrant, using a gun and a fictional. In his position, he said that those who commit violent crimes “do not deserve deportation, deserve to be finished.” He was later withdrawn by X.
