Rep. John Gillette, a Republican elected in 2023 to represent Arizona’s 30th House District, made several posts on his social media account on September 20, 2025, criticizing the Democratic Party and its members.
In a post published at 15:25 UTC, Gillette wrote: “Busy day for the Radical Islamic, communist, transtifa party. (Dem) for short. AOC stupid comment, Terrorists- Rashida Tlaib, calls Republican and member of Nazi party. DEMOCRATS HATE AMERICA.”
Later that afternoon at 16:24 UTC, he posted another message stating: “This is exactly what we should be doing! For those on the left, ‘infidel’ is anyone who doesn’t believe in Islam. We have known this all along. Why do Democrats support this savage hate group? Democrats hate America!”
At 16:53 UTC the same day, Gillette continued with another post saying: “Dems say men are ‘toxic’ Demand sensitivity training Enforce political correctness, censorship. Push the ‘Nazi, threat to democracy’ narrative to incite attacks The left openly called for violence on Republicans and POTUS They want us silent while they sharpen their knives.”
Gillette began serving as state representative after winning election in Arizona’s House District 30 in 2023. He replaced former state representative Christian Solorio.
