Story summary

Adina Flores, an activist with a significant social media following of over 144,000 on Instagram, endorsed Eric Jones, the Democratic candidate for Congress in California’s 4th Congressional District. The endorsement centers on Jones’ commitment to fighting women's sexual exploitation. However, Flores' own platforms are rife with controversial content that includes anti-Semitic rhetoric and conspiracy theories, such as claiming “evil Jews run the world” through Masonic Lodges and accusing Sonoma County of being controlled by a "gay Jewish mafia." These statements have raised concerns about whether Jones aligns with Flores’ views. A campaign spokesperson for Jones stated they “have zero tolerance for hateful commentary toward [their] neighbors or family,” emphasizing that Jones' wife is Jewish and the couple raises their children in a Jewish household while advocating strongly for public schools and educators.
