In case you have never heard the name "Valetina Gomez" before, she is a 26 y/o Columbian immigrant and a right-wing extremist Republican candidate for Secretary of State in Missouri who faced a resounding defeat in the primary election last year. One day after her brother's support for her campaign, he was fired from the office of New Jersey mayor.

She came to public attention when she burnt a copy of the Qur'an during her election campaign to attract media attention and generate votes. But the self-confessed “biggest bitch in America” uses the verbal equivalent of "shock and awe" against Muslims, Blacks, immigrants, and gay people to make a name for himself. 

Here are some samples of her recent obnoxious remarks:

* She recently burned a copy of the Qur'an.

* Muslims should never be able to hold public office in the US.

* Muslims want to kill every Jew, Christian, and Hindu.

* She cheers the slaughter of innocent children in Gaza. 

* She is banned on Instagram, Facebook, and Wikipedia due to her incendiary remarks and call for violence.

* I will never bow to a stupid rock (a reference to Ka'aba, one of 3 holiest shrines in Islam).

* She perpetuates fear about a Muslim takeover and champions bombing all the Middle East.

* She is now visiting occupied Jerusalem and scheduled to meet Crime Minister Netanyahu.

* She favors pardoning Jan 6. insurrectionists, not people like Hunter Biden or George Floyd, whom she calls thugs.

* She opposes Qatari pilots flying over the US, but she is okay with the US having the largest military base in Qatar.

* Islam has no place in Texas. Help me, Congress, so we can end the Islamization of America.

* Gomez falsely accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire, even though Israel violated the ceasefire for the last 11 days since the ceasefire started, by launching strikes on Gaza every day and killing 86 Palestinians, including many children.

* She posted a video before Juneteenth where she told Black Americans to "kindly" leave the US if they "don’t like it." 

* She used derogatory language in statements regarding the LGBTQ+, including the phrase, "Don't be weak and gay."

* I was a nobody and God transformed me into one of the most feared, respected, and loved women in American politics.

* Gomez called to publicly execute all undocumented immigrants as it is a much cheaper way to get rid of them. 

Psychiatrists however believe that people who exhibit such odd behaviors are usually unable to mind their business and are most likely internally miserable. They seek to find fault within others to make themselves feel better. 

Personally, I can't wait to see a video of ICE agents busting into the front door of this dumb waman's home. That will be the day!
