Ossoff Criticizes Collins Over Former Staffer's Nazi Posts

Senator Jon Ossoff escalated his criticism of Republican Representative Mike Collins on Thursday, August 27, 2026, citing a new report detailing racist and neo-Nazi social media posts by a former member of Collins' staff. The Democratic senator, who is seeking reelection in Georgia, accused his opponent of having extensive ties to white nationalism, a charge the Collins campaign has vehemently denied. The controversy centers on Preston Parra, a 24-year-old who interned in Collins' congressional office for approximately two months in 2024 and later worked as a contractor for Collins' leadership political action committee.
