Democrat congressman dragged for ‘weird' TikTok ‘aura farming' trend video
Rep. Suhas Subramanyam, D-Va., got in on TikTok's 'aura farming' trend, posting a clip of himself dancing solo in the congressional subway, captioned 'omw to hold this administration accountable.' In the short clip, Subramanyam appears on the House subway wearing sunglasses, striking poses and waving his arms before locking in on the camera. Subramanyam's 'aura farming' appears to have backfired, with some commenters calling it out as tone-deaf, hypocritical and 'cringe.' Left-leaning viewers frustrated with perceived inaction from Democrats under President Donald Trump took aim at the VA-10 congressman in the comment section. One of the top-liked comments asked flatly, 'By doing nothing…?' Another read, 'Representatives have got to stop doing this. Actually do something.' Many commenters linked the post to Subramanyam's past voting record, including his controversial decision against his party just weeks ago not to move forward with a House impeachment resolution against Trump. 3 Rep. Suhas Subramanyam, D-Va., posted a clip of himself dancing solo in the congressional subway. @repsuhas/TikTok On June 24, 2025, Subramanyam voted to table (i.e., block) a resolution to impeach President Trump over 'high crimes and misdemeanors.' The resolution was introduced by Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, but was halted by a wide House majority. Several comments mocked the tone and delivery of the video. One read, '-1000 aura,' while another said, 'Our taxpayer money hard at work…' Another commenter wrote, 'So what exactly are you on your way to do? Because so far democrats have not really done anything at all.' A top comment simply read, 'This feels weird idk.' 3 The clip was captioned 'omw to hold this administration accountable.' @repsuhas/TikTok One lengthy reply said, 'Not trying to be disrespectful. But? Less of this sh–. More fire on the floor please. I get wanting to do outreach. But this? Isn't the action an average American needs from their representatives right now. We're approaching no taxation without representation territory here. Do better.' Another suggested, 'Introduce a new amendment for every one performative TikTok a Congress person posts they have to cosign 3 bills that work to limit the power of money in politics.' Subramanyam, a former tech advisor in the Obama White House and the first South Asian elected to Virginia's General Assembly, has gained a reputation as a more moderate Democrat. 3 Some social media users called the clip tone-deaf, hypocritical and 'cringe.' Getty Images He won Virginia's 10th District in 2024 and often plays up his immigrant roots in political messaging. The 'aura farming' trend, popular among Gen Z and Gen Alpha, refers to pulling off effortless, cool gestures usually while standing still. It took off after a now-viral video of 11-year-old Indonesian boy Rayyan Arkan Dikha danced stone-faced and confident while wearing sunglasses aboard a racing boat. Most 'aura farming' clips on TikTok are soundtracked to 'Young Black & Rich' by Melly Mike, which includes the lyric 'I ain't even gon' get mad, I'm young, black and rich.' Fox News Digital reached out to Subramanyam's office and TikTok for comment.

Virginia Democrat on possible shutdown: ‘It's time to stand up for the American people'
Rep. Suhas Subramanyam (D-Va.) said he supports Democrats' threats to shut down the government if Republicans proceed with a planned rescissions package, saying his party should use all the leverage they can to prevent cuts to previously approved funding. 'I say it's time to stand up for the American people,' Subramanyam said in an interview on NewsNation's 'The Hill Sunday,' when asked what he thinks about a potential shutdown. 'It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or a Republican. I mean, I'm hearing from both sides. They're fed up with this administration, and they want to see some changes, not just in this administration, but even in the Democratic Party,' he continued. 'And, so, yes, absolutely, the time to fight was yesterday,' he added. Republicans are ramping up efforts to pass a rescissions package that President Trump requested last month, which includes more than $9 billion in funding cuts for foreign aid and public broadcasting programs. However, the push faces staunch opposition from Democrats, who argue that the executive branch's efforts to undermine previous funding decisions made on a bipartisan basis by Congress could further erode trust between the two sides in current talks. And they are warning that the efforts threaten bipartisan negotiations to fund the government ahead of a September shutdown deadline. Subramanyam said he thinks it's important Democrats use the leverage they have now. 'We need to continue to make sure that when we do have leverage — the few times we do have leverage — we have to use it,' he said. 'And we have to strike a hard bargain and not just fold in the last minute.' 'And so, I do think that we should fight,' he added. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
