Officials in Miami Beach are calling for action after alarming videos emerged, capturing a group of white nationalist influencers chanting Nazi slogans and seemingly idolizing Adolf Hitler inside a South Beach venue.
The clips, which quickly gained traction on social media over the weekend, depict the group reveling at Vendôme nightclub. In the background, the antisemitic track “Heil Hitler” by Kanye West could be heard during a bottle service parade.
Among the influencers seen in the social media posts were brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate, Nick Fuentes, Sneako, Myron Gaines, Justin Waller, and Clavicular, all captured arriving at the club with the song blaring.
Other footage shows some of the men chanting the song’s lyrics and performing a Nazi salute while traveling to the venue.
City officials expressed outrage, labeling the incident as ‘revolting,’ ‘terrifying,’ and a blatant affront to the values of Miami Beach—particularly poignant in a city renowned for its substantial Jewish population.
Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner condemned the events, describing the individuals involved as ‘sick, demented people’ and called for a thorough investigation into how the influencers were allowed entry and why the offensive song was played.
‘I am deeply disturbed and disgusted by these videos of twisted individuals glorifying Hitler and the murder of millions,’ Meiner, who is Jewish, continued.
‘What I also found disturbing is I spoke to a lot of other club operators today, and they told me they know these influencers try to get into clubs,’ Meiner said.

Miami Beach nightclub Vendôme has apologized for a ‘deeply offensive and unacceptable’ video circulating online, which appears to show a group of popular and controversial influencers partying to Kanye West’s anti-Semitic song, ‘Heil Hitler’

‘They ban them. They do not allow them in their club. How did they get in here and seemingly be welcomed into the club?’
On Monday night, Sneako and Nick Fuentes appeared on a short 15 second video where they made no apology for their actions, while the Tate brothers blamed the nightclub for playing the offensive track.
‘We’re just a couple n****s hanging out,’ Sneako said.
‘N****s going hard as f***. Society can’t handle it,’ Fuentes chimed in.
Meanwhile, the Tate brothers tried to distance themselves despite being seen partying along to the song both in the club and on their party bus.
‘If anyone wants to be angry, that anger belongs with the people who chose to play it and the people who chose to sing it,’ the brothers’ lawyer Joseph McBride said in a statement to TMZ.
The song itself has also drawn widespread condemnation. ‘Heil Hitler’ has been banned in Germany, and major music platforms in the United States have taken steps to restrict or remove it due to its content.
Vendôme issued a statement Sunday night acknowledging the videos and apologizing for the incident.

The nightclub released a statement following the shocking footage spreading online
‘We are aware of a video circulating online from one of our venues that includes content and imagery that are deeply offensive and unacceptable,’ the nightclub said.
‘We want to be unequivocally clear: Vendôme and our hospitality group do not condone antisemitism, hate speech, or prejudice of any kind.’
The club said it is conducting an internal review to determine how the song came to be played during a bottle parade and promised immediate action.
‘Our ownership and leadership reflect a diverse group of partners, backgrounds, and faiths including members of the Jewish community, and we are deeply disturbed by the harm caused by this incident and the circulation of this footage,’ the statement continued.
By Monday afternoon, the business announced concrete disciplinary steps.

Vendôme said it had fired three employees involved in the incident, implemented updated security procedures, and permanently banned the influencers seen in the videos from the venue.
The backlash quickly spread beyond Miami Beach. Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava released a statement condemning the incident.
‘Hate has no home in Miami-Dade County,’ she wrote. ‘Reports of Nazi slogans at a Miami Beach club are deeply disturbing and unacceptable. We stand against antisemitism and all hate, and expect swift accountability to keep our community safe and respectful for all.’
Mayor Meiner said the incident appeared deliberate rather than accidental.
‘It seems to be somewhat orchestrated,’ he said. ‘They’re there. The DJ plays this song that’s really banned in most places.
‘There’s nothing funny about the murder of six million Jews,’ Meiner added. ‘Hitler tried to exterminate the entire Jewish nation.’

As the videos have continued to circulate, city leaders said their message to the influencers involved is unequivocal.
‘You’re disgusting human beings, and I don’t want to see you in Miami Beach,’ Miami Beach Commissioner Joe Magazine said.
‘You’re not welcome,’ fellow Commissioner David Suarez agreed.
‘It’s disgusting, it’s shameful, and you’re not welcome in Miami Beach,’ added Mayor Meiner.

McBride, the Tate’s lawyer continued to lay the blame at the hands of the venue.
‘What I can say without qualification is this. Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate did neither. If the club is looking for someone to blame, it should start by looking in the mirror.
‘Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate condemn antisemitism and any glorification of Adolf Hitler. Free speech is not a license for hate. There is a clear line between expressing views and promoting hatred. Andrew and Tristan reject hatred in all its forms,’ McBride insisted.
