Python run multiple commands after assert

How do I run multiple commands after calling an assert statement? For example, here's what I would like to do (without using assert):

x = False
if x != True:
    my_func()
    raise ValueError("My statement")

This does exactly what I want, but it seems more Pythonic to use assert in this case. I cannot figure out how to do multiple things after calling assert. Here's what I'm trying to do (but with incorrect syntax):

x = False
assert x == True, my_func() "My statement"

You could do 

assert x == True, [my_func(), "My statement"][1]

DEMO

def my_func():
    print("my function")

x = False
assert x == True, [my_func(),  "My statement"][1]

OUTPUT

my function
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/abdul.niyas/AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python36-32/a.py", line 5, in <module>
    assert x == True, [my_func(),  "My statement"][1]
AssertionError: My statement
