Kyle Langford, a declared California gubernatorial candidate, posted a picture of himself in front of the Auschwitz concentration camp with the caption, My 0% Unemployment Plan.
Rating: True
In late July 2025, claims that a California man allegedly running for governor posted a picture of himself in front of the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland with the caption "My 0% Unemployment Plan" circulated online.
The man in question was Kyle Langford, an aspiring politician who declared himself a candidate for governor in the upcoming 2026 California gubernatorial election. He described his "political philosophy" as "Christian Eco-Nationalism," which he said "blends moral framework and law-and-order pragmatism with a unique Californian identity," according to his answers on a Ballotpedia survey.

(11,218 posts)All very well and good, except you're supposed to be installing counters. And you're running for governor after just 2 years in the state?
There are always a bunch of clowns on the primary ballot because all it takes to get on is a certain amount of signatures or a sum of money. Reading their statements in the voters' guide is amusing, but only the top two go on to the November election.
