Fury over California congressional candidate’s outrageous anti-America protest (Mai Vang)
NY Post ^ | 5/23/26 | Josh Koehn

Posted on 05/24/2026 2:23:01 AM PDT by Libloather

Millions of Americans will spend Memorial Day weekend honoring those who died while serving in the US military — but California congressional candidate Mai Vang likely will not be one of them.

The lefty Sacramento city councilmember has boasted about refusing to say the Pledge of Allegiance at public meetings and ceremonies — and routinely turned her back on the flag.

Vang, who is attempting to unseat longtime Democratic Rep. Doris Matsui in the June primary election, is currently polling neck-and-neck with the incumbent and slightly ahead of Republican Zachariah Wooden.

But the potential of an anti-American congressmember isn’t sitting right with some constituents in the state’s recently redrawn 7th congressional district, which added more conservative pockets like Lodi, Placerville and El Dorado Hills to a electoral map that already included parts of Sacramento and Elk Grove.

David Cushman, chair of the San Joaquin Republican Party, said that Vang is attempting to mold herself in the image of the ambitious New York Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez.

“Her strategy is badly misjudged and really bad fit for the district,” he told The California Post.

“She’s trying to be the AOC of the Central Valley, but this is not the same district as AOC’s or even Nancy Pelosi’s district [in San Francisco].”

By their actions most RATs show their hate for America. We have troops in harm’s way and they are doing everything they can to deny them victory. Why? Because Trump! Every once in awhile you get a RAT that does not bother to hide it. Like this commie lady.

A representative republic cannot long last such people.

The potential of an anti-American congressmember...

That’s 80% of Congress now and probably 99% of California’s legislators.

Shows you how far we’ve fallen. The fact that these people are given the time of day is the problem. Just remember Kamala got 48% of the vote. It doesn’t take much to shave a couple of points over the cheating, covid ‘crisis’, MSM lying, and our own candidates being stupid at the wrong time. Sometimes it takes a bull in the china shop like Trump to expose all of it. Will we be as vigilant when he’s gone?

The surname Vang is primarily associated with Hmong nationality and ethnicity. The Hmong are an indigenous, stateless group originating from mountainous regions in China, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand.

Why is she here.

Hmong tribesmen were strong supporters of US efforts against the NVA during the war. They worked with MACV-SOG in particular to interdict and observe NVA movements throughout the HoChiMinh trail. I’d surmise MS Vang was born here and steeped in anti-Americanism in Kalifornia schools.

The Democrats have seceded from the human race.

It's time for Trump to go full Pinochet.

Mai Vang must be either a Commie or a moron...

Or both...but she isn't an American, and she shouldn't be in ANY OFFICE in the USA...

Wouldn’t she be more at home back in Vietnam?

In other news, doesn’t Matsui have a son or daughter who can run in order to perpetuate the family business?

The Hmong are to Asia what Somalis are to Africa - the worst dregs of the continent. When they come to America, they spread squalor and crime wherever they go. They're especially keen on trespassing and poaching.

And why should we expect anything different? Hmong were basically jungle cave-dwellers until we imported them.
