Belleview, Florida - Openly Islamophobic MAGA Congressman Randy Fine managed to hang onto his seat after defeating an openly antisemitic influencer in a Florida primary.

In his primary bid to continue representing Florida's 6th District, Fine came out on top on Tuesday with 56.9% of the vote, while Dan Bilzerian trailed far behind with 18.7%, and Aaron Baker after him with 13.5%.

Bilzerian is a manosphere influencer and founder of Ignite International Brands, which sells vapes and liquor.

Another part of his online brand is his shocking antisemitic rhetoric. In an interview in November 2024, Bilzerian argued that "Jewish supremacy" is the cause of most of the world's problems and "the greatest threat to the world today."

Much of his vitriol has been centered around the war in Gaza, as he argued Israel is treating Palestinians like "subhuman beasts."

Last week, Bilzerian sparked outrage after he shared an AI-generated music video that referred to Fine as a "fat Jew" and compared his views to those held by Adolf Hitler.

The video got the attention of House Speaker Mike Johnson, who called it "vile" and "disgusting."

Bilzerian has not been taking his loss lightly, lamenting in an X post that "they" cheated by "literally" taking votes from him.

Throughout his campaign, Fine regularly pointed to Bilzerian's rhetoric as an "evil" that voters needed to defeat, but the incumbent has faced criticism for pushing hate of his own.

Fine – whom President Donald Trump endorsed as a "MAGA Warrior" – is a staunch defender of Israel and has used the war in Gaza as a vehicle to spread hate and bigotry about Palestinians and Muslims.

On social media, he has celebrated the starving of children in Gaza, has said Palestinian is "a synonym for evil," and called for "more Islamophobia, not less."

In an X post shared in February, he wrote, "If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one."

Fine will go on to face Democrat and business owner Eric Yonce in the November general election, though the 6th District seat is considered solidly red.
