Socialist Claire Valdez faces calls for federal probe after Mexico 'fight' pledge
Valdez is the Democratic nominee for New York's 7th Congressional District.
Alicia Nieves called for an investigation of Valdez under the Logan Act.
Christina Pushaw is a top communications official for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
“Given that she is currently a congressional nominee, not a member of Congress, and appears to have discussed facilitating support contrary to current U.S. policy as well as describing our country an ‘empire’ that has ‘stolen from us’… I hope the administration will review whether these communications warrant investigation under the Logan Act.”
ALICIA NIEVES
