Core Event
Activist Adina Flores, a self-described “civil-rights” advocate with more than 144,000 Instagram followers, publicly endorsed Eric Jones, the Democratic candidate for California’s 4th Congressional District. Flores’ endorsement highlighted Jones’ pledge to support survivors of sexual misconduct, but her social-media posts simultaneously allege that “the gay Jewish mafia” controls local institutions in Sonoma County and denounce LGBTQ-related curricula in public schools. Jones’ campaign has faced pressure to clarify whether it shares Flores’ extremist views.
Background & Context
She claims to be a former government employee who was “forced out” over COVID-19 mask-mandate policies and describes herself as a “whistleblower.” In addition to her anti-Jewish conspiracy claims, she accuses local schools of “pride indoctrination” and links both major parties to “the Freemasons.”
Official Statements & Responses
Jones’ own campaign materials list three priorities: ending corruption, lowering the cost of living, and promoting resource sustainability, and the campaign has secured endorsements from progressive groups Indivisible and Our Revolution.
