Rep. Randy Fine, a Republican from Florida, called out Muslims on social media this week who are against keeping dogs as indoor pets and continued to stand his ground, despite drawing heavy backlash from several prominent Democrats.
The back-and-forth occurred after Fine responded to a post on the social media website X by Nerdeen Kiswani. She chairs a New York City-based pro-Palestinian advocacy group and is a vocal supporter of far-left Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
Last week, Kiswani wrote on X that, “Finally, NYC is coming to Islam. Dogs definitely have a place in society, just not as indoor pets. Like we’ve said all along, they are unclean.”

After her post went viral and garnered millions of views, she tried to walk it back as a joke.
“Lmao at the Zionists frothing at the mouth at this, thinking they’re doing something,” Kiswani wrote. “It’s obviously a joke I don’t care if you have a dog, I do care if your dog is shitting everywhere and you’re not cleaning it.”
Fine wasn’t buying it though and replied, “If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one.”
