Award-winning journalist Kevin Deutsch says antisemitism from both the far left and far right has created a more perilous environment for American Jews in 2026 than in 1930s Germany, as political movements on both sides target Israel and the Jewish community.

In a recent interview with Alan Skorski, Deutsch, author of the watchdog Jewish news Substack “After October 7,” described a coordinated campaign that has isolated Jews and Israel across the political spectrum.

Skorski pointed to examples in deep blue and solid red states. In New York City, voters elected Mamdani as mayor, while in Florida, antisemite James Fishback is running as a Republican candidate for governor and Dan Bilzerian is challenging Jewish Republican Rep. Randy Fine for his congressional seat.
