Republicans Close University of Florida Chapter Over Alleged Antisemitism

By The Geller Report

The surge of antisemitism on the right is deeply disturbing, and it is not hard to trace the source. Figures like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly and their fellow travelers have driven a stake straight through the moral center of what was once a reliably pro-Israel, philo-Semitic political home.

For Jews like myself—proud, unapologetic Zionists who long felt safe and politically at home within the Republican Party—the shift is jarring. For decades, the locus of organized Jew-hatred in American politics was overwhelmingly on the left: among Democrats and the ideological alliance that increasingly includes Islamic movements and their Western enablers.

To see that poison now metastasizing on the right is not merely disappointing—it is profoundly alarming.

So it is no small comfort that Republicans would close their University of Florida chapter over antisemitism. At least the right is pushing back, fighting this scourge, this awful poison. The left, on the other hand, is embracing it.

Republicans close University of Florida chapter over alleged antisemitism

The announcement is the second report this month of antisemitic behavior by a conservative group at a Florida school.

The Florida Federation of College Republicans disbanded its University of Florida chapter and asked the school to remove it as a student organization due to alleged misconduct that includes antisemitism, the university said on Saturday.

The request was based on the federation’s own investigation that uncovered a “pattern of conduct that violated its rules and values, including a recent antisemitic gesture,” the university wrote in a post on X. The federation asked the school to “deactivate” its Republican chapter while the group tries to restart the chapter with new leadership, the university wrote.

The school’s post said it is “committed to preventing and addressing antisemitism and other forms of discrimination and harassment” that threaten and disrupt the school community, and that it will help the federation reactivate its local chapter when it is reformed.

The announcement is the second report this month of antisemitic behavior by a conservative group at a Florida school.

Florida International University said on March 5 that law enforcement is investigating a Miami Herald ​report that prominent members of the local Republican Party and conservative student leaders exchanged racist, antisemitic, ‌and homophobic messages in an online group chat.

The Herald reported that logs of the leaked WhatsApp group chat showed participants, including prominent local Republican Party officials and student leaders of FIU’s Turning Point USA chapter, a conservative youth group founded by slain activist Charlie Kirk.
