A Nazi swastika was spray-painted on a campaign sign for Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL 6) at an early voting location in Flagler Beach, Florida, on Monday.
Police were investigating the act of vandalism.
We strongly condemn this political intimidation targeting Jewish Congressman Randy Fine today in Florida.

“It upsets me that I live in a world where Jewish kids, let alone any kid, had to see that, and that there’s someone with so much hate in their heart that they were willing to go onto government property and do this,” Fine told Fox 35 Orlando.
Bilzerian Runs on Open Antisemitism
Fine is one of only four Jewish Republican members of the House of Representatives.
Among Fine’s challengers in the August 18th primary is podcaster and antisemitic conspiracy theorist Dan Bilzerian. The main themes of Bilzerian’s campaign include Holocaust denial, alleged Jewish blackmail schemes, and supposed Jewish plots to subvert U.S. sovereignty and assassinate American political figures.
A new analysis by CAM’s Antisemitism Research Center (ARC) published this week found that 33% of the content posted to Bilzerian’s campaign X account is antisemitic hate speech.
In a fake AI video published on Tuesday, Bilzerian accused Fine of staging the vandalism of the sign.

CAM U.S. Advisory Board Member Gabriel Groisman — a former mayor of Bal Harbour, Florida — stated, “Dan Bilzerian is a caricature of a congressional candidate. His campaign has been an excuse to spread his antisemitic rhetoric and to try to cash in on the growing antisemitism trend in certain corners of the internet. Still, by painting himself as a congressional candidate, Bilzerian continues to fuel antisemitism in the state and nationwide.”
“The good news is that Florida’s 6th District voters will soundly reject Bilzerian on August 18th,” Groisman added. “He couldn’t raise money to support his campaign and he won’t win any meaningful votes. Candidates of this ilk have continuously been rejected in Republican primaries this cycle, and Bilzerian’s campaign will thankfully suffer the same fate.”
