Florida State Sen. Randy Fine (R), a Jewish Republican and vocal pro-Israel advocate, publicly branded Tucker Carlson "the most dangerous antisemite in America" during a speech at the Republican Jewish Coalition's (RJC) annual leadership summit in Las Vegas yesterday.

In his RJC address, Fine said: "Make no mistake. Today, Tucker Carlson is the most dangerous antisemite in America. He has chosen to take on the mantle of leader of a modern-day Hitler Youth, to broadcast and feature those who celebrate the Nazis, those who call for the extermination of Israel."

The comment, which went viral, stems from Carlson's October 27, 2025, podcast interview with Nick Fuentes, a Holocaust denier and white nationalist. Fine tied Carlson's platforming of Fuentes to a "dark force rising" on the right, equating it to leading a "modern-day Hitler Youth." Here's the full context based on reports, videos, and social media

Fine criticized Carlson's shift from a pro-Israel conservative to an "isolationist" who platforms extremists like Fuentes (who denies the Holocaust and praises Hitler). He accused Carlson of not being "MAGA" and urged Republicans to confront this "rising threat" within their ranks.

Fine also slammed Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts for initially defending Carlson, announcing he won't work with Heritage anymore.

Fine's comments reflect growing GOP tensions over Carlson's isolationist shift and platforming of controversial figures, amid a post-October 7 surge in antisemitism. Carlson has not responded. The RJC event, attended by Trump allies, underscores the party's internal rift on Israel and hate speech ahead of midterms.
