Valentina Gomez crashes Muslim event, rips off hijab to denounce Sharia law in Texas

Former Republican candidate Valentina Gomez crashed a Muslim community day event at the Texas Capitol building, speaking her truth about Islamic extremism.

Gomez can be seen in footage ripping a hijab from her head as she takes the podium and delivers a scorching verdict.

“Islam is the religion of rape, incest and pedophilia where they bow down to a stupid rock and a false prophet. I will never let Sharia law take over Texas,” Gomez said, as she battled with an attendant who was physically trying to take the microphone away.

She shared the video on X, along with the message: “Islam has no place in Texas. Help me to Congress so we can end the Islamization of America. I only fear God.”

Gomez has a history of dropping controversial videos to get her point across, as seen in 2024 when she was running for secretary of state in Missouri — she shared a video of herself burning LGBTQ-themed books with a flamethrower.

“This is what I will do to the grooming books when I become secretary of state. These books come from a Missouri public library. When I’m in office, they will burn,” she said.

In another post that appears to have been deleted or removed, Gomez shared a video of herself running as she declared, “In America, you can be anything you want, so don’t be weak and gay. Stay f*cking hard.”

A common theme in the online responses is that radical Islam “is not compatible to Western values” — here’s a quick sampling, as seen on X:

I am surprised to see that you are openly talking and fighting against radicals in your country, who are really a headache for the whole world

Valentina said what millions are thinking but too afraid to say out loud.

This isn’t about religion, it’s about ideology. Islam, as a political system, clashes with everything America stands for: free speech, equal rights, religious freedom, and the Constitution. We’re watching…

Exactly how we should be responding to the Islamic growth in our country. This isn’t Europe.

Every citizen in that state should be prepared to do the same. Is it disrespectful? Maybe. But that’s the reaction when you disrespect this flag and refuse to assimilate to Christian society. Wouldn’t matter if they separated church and state, but they’re incapable.
