Republican congressional hopeful Valentina Gomez has published a video showing the destruction of Islamic scripture

A Texas Republican congressional candidate has set fire to a copy of the Quran in a campaign ad, igniting a furor on X.

Valentina Gomez, a self-styled ‘MAGA America First’ political hopeful, published the video on Tuesday, asking for help in getting elected to the US Congress.

“Your daughters will be raped and your sons beheaded, unless we stop Islam once and for all,” Gomez declared in the video, before stepping back and letting loose a stream of flame at a copy of the Muslim holy book. This was accompanied by a recording of a song by controversial rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.

“America is a Christian nation, so those terrorist Muslims can f*ck off to any of the 57 Muslim nations. There is only one true God, and that is the God of Israel,” she said.

“I will end islam (sic) in Texas so help me God…” Gomez wrote in her X post, asking for support for her campaign to “get to Congress.”

The stunt racked up 3.8 million views in a day, and drew a storm of approving and condemning replies.

“This isn’t politics. It’s incitement,” podcaster Brian Allen wrote. “When the mosques start burning, remember: this was the match and the Texas GOP handed her the lighter.”
