LGBTQ+ ally announces she's running against "disgrace" George Santos
Former New York State Senator Anna Kaplan (D) has just announced her campaign to unseat gay Rep. George Santos (R). In her announcement video, she says she’s running “because George Santos is a disgrace, and the Republicans in Washington are a direct threat to women’s freedom and children’s safety.”
The entire first minute of Kaplan’s announcement video recounts several of Santos’ scandals, including falsehoods about his Jewish identity and his grandparents dying in the Holocaust, his recent indictment on 13 federal criminal charges, his wearing of an assault rifle pin in the Capitol hours after a mass shooting, his past support of abortion bans, and his co-sponsoring of a bill to make a deadly assault rifle the “national gun of the United States.”
In the second half of Kaplan’s video, Kaplan notes that, as a young teen, she was forced to fly to the United States to flee anti-Semitic persecution under Iran’s then-Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khomeini.
