Neo-Marxist Mai Vang, Running for U.S. Congress, Rejects the Pledge of Allegiance and Turns Her Back on US Flag
by Steve Warren
As Memorial Day approaches and Americans prepare to honor the fallen who secured the blessings of liberty, one Democratic congressional candidate in California has chosen a different path: open defiance of the nation’s most basic symbols of unity.
Sacramento City Councilmember Mai Vang has repeatedly refused to recite the Pledge of Allegiance during public meetings and has been captured on video turning her back on the American flag. This is not a quiet personal conviction but a public statement from a woman seeking to represent the United States in Congress.
Vang’s actions stand in stark contrast to the district she hopes to serve. California’s newly redrawn 7th Congressional District includes more conservative areas that value tradition and national pride alongside traditional Democratic strongholds. Yet Vang, polling competitively against incumbent Rep. Doris Matsui, has made her protest a point of pride rather than a liability. In doing so, she exposes a troubling trend on the left: the elevation of grievance over gratitude and global activism over national loyalty.
As a recent NY Post editorial notes, she has no place in the United States Congress.
Her refusal isn’t occasional hesitation but deliberate theater. Videos from city council meetings in 2025 and 2026 show Vang consistently averting her gaze from the flag while others participate. She even boasted about the practice on social media, framing the moment of national unity as an opportunity to “center our communities” and reflect on alleged injustices committed “under this nation’s influence,” complete with hashtags supporting causes far removed from her constituents’ daily concerns.
ain't she a dousy
