A left-wing Sacramento city councilwoman who is running for Congress has repeatedly turned her back on the American flag and refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance.
It remains to be seen how councilwoman Mai Vang’s obstinance will play with voters as she is seeking to unseat longtime Democratic Rep. Doris Matsui in the June primary election.
Vang is reportedly polling neck-and-neck with the incumbent and slightly ahead of Republican Zachariah Wooden, the California Post reported.
However, the deviance may not be the best strategy in the recently redrawn 7th congressional district, which now includes more conservative areas like Lodi, Placerville and El Dorado Hills. San Joaquin Republican Party chairman David Cushman told the Post said that Vang is attempting to replicate the image of firebrand Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).
“Her strategy is badly misjudged and really bad fit for the district,” he told the 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].”
Vang is the daughter of Hmong refugees. She has refused to take part in the Pledge before, including at a Veterans Day ceremony last year to district meetings on Jan. 22 and March 26, as well as a Sacramento City Council meeting on July 1, 2025, according to the Post.
Steve Maviglio, a Democratic political consultant in Sacramento, called Vang’s actions “completely disrespectful to veterans and their families.”
“It’s ‘Patriotism 101,’ you say the Pledge of Allegiance even if you don’t agree with everything,” Maviglio said. “You can’t say the Pledge of Allegiance — that’s how extreme you are? Come on.”
Vang celebrated her refusal to cite the Pledge of Allegiance on a Facebook post in February of 2025 that included the hashtag “FreePalestine.”

If eyes are the window to the soul then very much overweight Ms. Vang has eyes so hard they can cut rocks!

At least the Democrats tell us who and what they are.
They hate America. They hate freedom. They hate men. They hate Christians and Jews.
We can defend ourselves against an enemy we know.
Her girlfriend is very jealous, and has tree-trunk arms. He best walk away.
But they have a not-so-secret weapon: Guilt. You’re a white supremacist, Islamophobic, sexist, transphobic, ultra-MAGA extremist. Now hide your head in shame, and let her win. And no, she is lousy at math! Forget that stereotype.
