Rep. Randy Fine is among the Jewish members of Congress on both sides of the aisle being threatened with death by antisemites ... and we've learned one voicemail he received Tuesday is being investigated by Capitol Police.
TMZ DC obtained a voicemail from someone who dialed up Randy's Washington, D.C. office ... a diatribe on Jews complete with threats of extreme physical violence.
In the message, the GOP Congressman from Florida is threatened with being beaten to death and having his "beanie" -- a reference to his yarmulke -- shoved up his anus.
Darren Dershem, a spokesperson for the Congressman, tells TMZ the threat has been reported to Capitol Police, and cops informed their office police are investigating.
We reached out to Cap Police who tell us …. “For safety reasons, we cannot discuss potential security measures for the Members of Congress, or any potential investigations.”
Rep. Fine’s office tells us this voicemail is a just drop in the bucket … they're getting antisemitic threats on the regular.
A more public verbal attack on Fine went down earlier this year when Dan Bilzerian -- who's campaigning for Fine's congressional seat -- called him a "fat Jew," and came on TMZ Live to defend the antisemitic remark.
The JP Morgan Chase executive accused of sexually harassing her ex-subordinate and racially discriminating against him has now filed her own lawsuit for defamation.
Lorna Hajdini filed the suit Tuesday against the banker, claiming he fabricated statements in a JP Morgan Chase internal complaint that she sexually harassed, sexually assaulted and racially discriminated against him over several months in 2024.
As a result, Hajdini says she was exposed to public contempt, hatred and ridicule, as well as economic, reputational, and emotional harm. She also says the banker, identified only as John Doe, made the false claims in bad faith and with malice, constituting libel and slander.
According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge awarded the "Red Table Talk" host $32,836 in legal fees, although Jada requested $49,181 before the judge reduced the amount.
As we previously reported, Bilaal sued Jada, claiming he suffered emotional distress due to alleged threats from Jada and her associates. He claims to have been friends with Will for decades and says he was called up by the Smith team to help with damage control after the actor slapped Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars.

The Twigs fired off a countersuit against FKA for trademark infringement last week ... claiming, over the last few years, the star has stopped using "FKA" and simply gone by "Twigs."

YUNGBLUD's team is firing back after Machine Gun Kelly savagely blasted the singer in an alleged viral social media comment taking aim at his ill-fated tour.
Here's the deal ... the drama started after YUNGBLUD posted a video saying "live music has become inaccessible," part of his push for cheaper fan experiences through projects like BLUDFEST.
MGK responded with a blistering, alleged since-deleted comment accusing YUNGBLUD of canceling a tour because he "couldn’t sell tickets" while publicly blaming mental health struggles. He also mocked YUNGBLUD's ticket prices before ending the tirade with a profanity laced insult, calling him a "silver spooned preachy wanker."
Now, a rep for YUNGBLUD tells TMZ ... "Dom has not commented directly as he is so busy focusing on his sold-out North American tour and finishing his next album."
The rep adds ... "He genuinely hasn’t got time to engage in any of this but we wish MGK the very best."
The clash is especially shocking considering MGK and YUNGBLUD were once practically inseparable during the pop-punk revival era ... constantly collaborating, appearing together and running in the same Travis Barker circle.
Fans have suspected tension for years after the two noticeably stopped publicly interacting and now they're embroiled in a full-blown war of words.

In "This Is Me: A Reckoning," Hayden says she was preparing for the "Scream VI" premiere in 2023 when she intentionally ignored a call from her dad ... only to answer when he rang her again, and delivered the tragic news.
