Adina Flores, an activist who describes herself as a civil rights advocate and maintains a highly unconventional social media presence, has endorsed Eric Jones, the Democratic congressional candidate in California’s 4th Congressional District.
Flores’ support centers on Jones’ stated plans to address the sexual exploitation of women—an issue that, on its own, would not be especially unusual for a political endorsement.
However, her Facebook, Instagram and Substack accounts feature a stream of provocative posts portraying politics as a struggle shaped by race, sexual orientation and alleged hidden networks of power.
That online activity has placed a spotlight on Jones, who has appeared with Flores in multiple social media videos, and raised questions about whether he shares or accepts her views.
In one Facebook video, Flores claimed that Jewish people control part of California, specifically Sonoma County.
“But we’re literally run by the gay Jewish mafia — the Zionists in Sonoma County. The Jews still run the world. That’s where we’re at,” Flores said. She also alleged that U.S. money was being sent to Israel while the issue was being ignored by the public.
In an Instagram post published in August, Flores further claimed that Jews control the world through Masonic lodges.
In another post earlier this year, she attacked Santa Rosa City Schools, accusing the district of recruiting children into what she described as a liberal and LGBTQ+-oriented ideology.
Asked about Flores’ online statements, Jones’ campaign said the candidate rejects bigotry directed at Jewish people and LGBTQ+ communities.
“I firmly condemn any and all hate toward our Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities. It has no place in our district. My wife is Jewish, we are raising our kids in a Jewish household, I’m a fierce advocate for our public schools and educators, and I have zero tolerance for hateful commentary toward my neighbors or my family,” a campaign spokesperson told Fox News Digital.
Alongside her comments about Jewish people, Flores frequently criticizes what she characterizes as attempts to introduce LGBTQ+ ideology to children through schools, government agencies and other public institutions.
In one video, Flores said she had opposed “wokeness” and claimed to be defending conservative parents. While holding up a rainbow-colored design created by a local school, she mocked the image and suggested it contained an inappropriate sexual reference.
The design shows a tree standing on a hill, rendered in rainbow colors.
Flores then used profane and derogatory language to claim that children attending public schools would be subjected to LGBTQ+ indoctrination, urging parents to withdraw them from the Santa Rosa school system.

Her attacks, often expressed in similarly inflammatory terms, have been aimed at figures and institutions across the political spectrum.
In another post, Flores criticized both Democrats and Republicans, saying they were engaged in an argument over which side was more extreme while ultimately serving the same interests.
She identified the Freemasons as the alleged force controlling the political narrative, insisting that the claim was not a conspiracy and that the same influence operated behind both the red and blue parties.
Flores has also said that her activism grew out of her previous work in government, a position she claims she lost and from which she is now barred from returning to public service.
“I got started in my activism because I am a former government employee. I’m a whistleblower who was forced out of the government,” Flores said.
She has attributed her removal to disputes over COVID-19 mask requirements and information provided to parents during the pandemic.
For his own part, Jones has centered his campaign around issues like affordability, government transparency and protecting government-run programs.
On his website, Jones has listed three main priorities: ending corruption, lowering the cost of living and resource sustainability in government. His stances have attracted endorsements from progressive groups like Indivisible and Our Revolution, organizations with ties to progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
Throughout his campaign, Jones has highlighted his family’s struggle with financial stability. He grew up in a military family and had a disabled father. According to Jones, the family also struggled to overcome medical debt, relying on Medicaid and food stamps.
In her endorsement of Jones, which she made shortly after the resignation of Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., Flores praised Jones’ promise to be a voice for survivors of sexual misconduct. Swalwell, a prominent California Democrat, surrendered his office after several women accused him of unwanted sexual advances, allegations that he denied.
“Thank you for being one of the only candidates — and this is insane because you’re not even in office yet, but you’re talking about this very critical issue, so God bless you, brother,” Flores said.
After Fox News Digital reached out to Flores, who has over 144,000 followers on Instagram, for comment, she posted a video response on Instagram dismissing the inquiry and saying she was a “private citizen” and that her social media accounts are “not monetized.”
“My views are mine & mine alone. I am an unpaid advocate & have never been paid to support a political candidate,” her post said. “I am highly against the two-party system. If I feel someone is a good fit for office, I support them. F— your gangs! It’s really that simple!”
