An ideology that actually trashes “individual rights, enforces strict hierarchies, and conflicts directly with American principles of equality under the law,” will be protected from anything that curbs its “influence,” several political candidates have affirmed.

They are Kelda Roys, Mandela Barnes, and Francesca Hong, Democrat wannabes for governor in the state of Wisconsin, and they made their pledges at a recent event held by the Wisconsin Muslim Civic Alliance and Wisconsin Muslim Civic Foundation.

A report by JD Rucker, an independent journalist who runs America First Report, said the promoters of the Sharia ideology had framed any restrictions as “unconstitutional attacks on faith, likening Sharia to Catholic canon law or Jewish halakha.”

However, the report said, while it is “presented innocuously as personal guidance for diet, prayer, and marriage,” Sharia actually is a “comprehensive legal and political system in many Islamic societies.”

And, the report it subordinates individual rights and impose an extremist ideology on victims.

The report said, “candidates who would block efforts to affirm the supremacy of the Constitution over foreign legal codes are not defending religious liberty—they are opening doors.”

The candidates, the report said, “made clear where their priorities lie. Each signaled they would veto any legislation aimed at curbing the influence of Sharia law in the state. This stance exposes a profound misalignment with the constitutional order and the Judeo-Christian foundations that built Wisconsin and the nation.”

Sharia actually can be blamed for “apostasy penalties, unequal treatment of women and non-Muslims, and resistance to secular authority—realities documented across nations where it holds sway,” the report said.

Further, the remarks were not offhand.

“Hong, a democratic socialist state representative, has built a record championing policies that challenge traditional norms on family, gender, and law enforcement. Barnes, former lieutenant governor, carries a history of radical rhetoric on America’s founding and policing. Roys, a state senator, has pushed gun control measures in the wake of tragedies,” the report said.

“Their willingness to elevate Sharia concerns above constitutional vigilance fits a consistent ideological thread: skepticism toward America’s exceptional inheritance.”

As the agenda for Sharia includes tribunals, family law overrides and more, “Multiple states have passed measures to reinforce that no foreign law supersedes the Constitution, precisely to safeguard against such encroachments.”

The report said, “As Scripture warns in 2 Corinthians 6:14, ;Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?’ The principle applies beyond personal relationships to the governance of a nation built on biblical precepts of justice and liberty. Wisconsin stands at a crossroads, where fidelity to the Constitution must not yield to imported ideologies that undermine it.”
