- While public officials may have disagreements over policies, comparisons to the Holocaust and Nazism are inappropriate, offensive, and trivialize this unique tragedy in human history. abcactionnews.com/news/state/nik…
- 1/3 We need all leaders to call out antisemitism and hate, rather than push false narratives or conspiracy theories. The Jewish community is on high alert following recent events, including this weekend’s neo-Nazi rally and assault in Orlando.
- Replying to @ADL_Florida2/3 We are alarmed that @ChristinaPushaw would first give cover to antisemites rather than immediately and forcefully condemning their revolting, hate-filled rally and assault.
- The belief that the Rothschilds manipulate currency and influence global events for personal enrichment and world domination is a staple of antisemitic conspiracy theorists. It's deeply disturbing to see these kinds of conspiracies promoted by a member of @GovRonDeSantis' staff.
- The #Holocaust is an irrefutable historical fact. Regardless of justification, any principal raising doubts about it is deeply disturbing. ADL will work to ensure this school's compliance with the #Florida Holocaust education mandate.
- Replying to @ADL_Florida3/3 We expect any public official, especially a voice for @GovRonDeSantis, to address the fears of the Jewish community thoughtfully – not with this troubling and careless approach.
- Antisemitic incidents were up 50% in FL in 2021 over 2020. We are calling on our public officials to be courageous and condemn this latest incident @WaltDisneyWorld and #SpeakUp Against Hate.
- 1/3 ADL is aware that individuals associated with the neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement and the antisemitic Goyim Defense League were active in the Orlando area over the weekend.
- #ADL Commends Law Enforcement For Thwarting Alleged #AntiSemitic Arson in #MiamiBeach - Urges State Attorney To Take A Hard Look At This As A #HateCrime florida.adl.org/news/adl-comme…1/2 - MBPD has arrested 72yr old, Walter Stolper. Stolper is charged w/ 1st Degree Attempted Arson after dumping several gasoline filled containers down a trash chute. His motivation appears to be triggered by an upcoming eviction and anger towards Jewish neighbors.
- Replying to @ADL_FloridaIt's vital for all public officials to challenge each other based on the substance and merits of the issue at hand and not invoke comparisons to Hitler or Nazism. We will be reaching out to @NikkiFriedFL to discuss our concerns.
- Replying to @ADL_FloridaConspiracy theories, especially those with antisemitic origins, don’t belong in Florida's highest office — or anywhere in the Sunshine State. We'll be reaching out to @GovRonDeSantis' office to voice our concerns and discuss the issue.
- Dressing up in blackface with a shirt that says ‘Katrina Victim” is racist & beyond offensive. Good to see Mike Ertl step down, as this is inappropriate behavior for anyone, let alone a sitting politician sworn to serve people of ALL races. (1/2) tallahassee.com/story/news/201…
- Appropriating Nazi imagery? Hurling baseless Islamophobic insults? Using Israel as a political cudgel? Laura Loomer - who has a well-known track record of promoting bigotry - accomplished all of these in a single, disgusting attack ad. She should take it down and apologize.NEW: Laura Loomer's latest ad which will soon be airing in South Florida
