Kyle Langford—Republican candidate for governor of California—posted a selfie that earned him a scolding from the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial Museum.

Langford posted a photo of himself in front of Auschwitz-Birkenau's infamous gates. As distasteful as a Nazi concentration camp selfie is, it was the 2026 California gubernatorial candidate's caption that was most disturbing.

Langford wrote:

"My 0% Unemployment Plan."

5. Backpfeifengesicht. TY for this -- as a Californian, I'm committing this smug little Nazi's name to memory...

Look how proud he is of displaying his moral deformity.

8. I had a flash of rage at the guy. Then I realized what

cancer diagnostics guidelines for family doctors being removed, cancer and other diseases no longer being studied, Medicaid cuts, USAID cuts, and climate change emergencies, Trump is really doing it. He really is killing people. This small Nazi knows and celebrates that.
