Rep. Randy Fine Calls Out Dan Bilzerian's 'Fat Jew' Remark in Florida Race

Rep. Randy Fine is hitting back at Dan Bilzerian after the Instagram influencer called him a "fat Jew" while announcing his run for Fine's congressional seat in Florida. Bilzerian, known as the "Instagram king," recently jumped into the race and brought controversy with him.

Bilzerian has a history of antisemitic comments. He refers to Fine as a "fat jew" with a lowercase j and has promoted unproven conspiracy theories about Israel. In interviews, Bilzerian claims he's "anti-Jewish, not antisemitic," though experts say there's no meaningful difference.

Fine, the Republican incumbent, told reporters that Bilzerian's bigotry won't work with voters. However, Fine also defended his own controversial comments against Muslims during the same interview with TMZ.

The race highlights how inflammatory rhetoric is becoming more common in American politics. Both candidates are using heated language that targets religious groups.
