Summary

A recently established Miami-Dade County Republican Party WhatsApp group chat for young conservatives circulated racist and misogynistic messages, including repeated slurs and calls for violence. Florida International University opened an investigation while elected officials publicly pressed for expulsions from party leadership. The episode reinforces how extremist speech can be incubated inside political networks with limited internal accountability until exposure forces institutional response.

Reality Check

When political networks tolerate dehumanizing speech and calls for violence until public exposure forces action, we normalize a culture where power organizes outside accountability. That precedent weakens civic guardrails by teaching future party operatives that extremist conduct is acceptable so long as it stays private. Our democracy cannot function when political identity becomes a shield against basic standards of public responsibility and equal protection norms.

Detail

A Miami-Dade County Republican Party chapter created a WhatsApp group chat for young conservatives that, according to reporting by the Miami Herald, became filled with racist and misogynistic posts. Participants used slurs targeting Black and Jewish people, including repeated use of the n-word.

The messages cited included a post by College Republicans Recruitment Chair Dariel Gonzalez saying people could have sex with Jewish people but should not marry them or “procreate,” followed by a reply from Florida International University Turning Point USA chapter president Ian Valdes stating he would not marry a Jew. Another participant, William Bejerano, sent a message encouraging violent acts against Black people, listing actions including crucifixion, dissection, and beheading.

The chat reportedly cycled through multiple names, including “Uber R****d Yapping,” and “Gooning in Agartha,” referenced as connected to Nazi esoterica associated with SS leader Heinrich Himmler. Florida International University opened an investigation into the chat and the students allegedly involved, and two Republican Florida state senators publicly called for expulsions.
