In the days since the initial U.S. strikes in Iran, countless lawmakers stateside have weighed in on the Trump Administration's decision to once again get involved in a conflict in the Middle East.
Prominent Georgia political figures like former representative Marjorie Taylor Greene and Senators Ossoff and Warnock have denounced the attacks, while candidates to replace MTG and others running in midterm elections have backed the president.
Now, Georgia State Senator Greg Dolezal, who is running for Lieutenant Governor in November, has posted a controversial video to social media depicting a hypothetical scenario where an extreme version of what he calls "Sharia law" has taken over the United States.
"London has fallen. Europe is under siege. In America, the invaders who would rather pillage our generosity than assimilate are roaming Minnesota, New York and LA," Dolezal said in the post. "As Lt. Governor, I will fight the enemy before they're within the gates and keep Georgia safe and Sharia free."
The video was marked with a content warning on X.
