Summary
A Tennessee gubernatorial candidate is under fire after using social media videos featuring Dane Chisholm—a man with a history of praising Hitler, spewing antisemitic slurs, and hurling racial abuse. Chisholm, who claims to be a volunteer and not paid, insists his views won’t hurt the candidate’s chances. But the videos, showing him in white nationalist gear interviewing voters, have sparked outrage. The candidate, who previously distanced himself from Hitler, now faces renewed scrutiny after appearing on a far-right podcast host known for antisemitic rhetoric. As hate group activity surges in Tennessee, this controversy exposes troubling gaps in campaign vetting and the dangerous normalization of extremist voices in politics.
