New Evidence Strengthens Links Between Jordan Bardella and Antisemitic Writings

An investigative report by Mediapart has uncovered new evidence linking Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally (RN), to antisemitic comments made in private Messenger conversations and posted on social media attributed to him. The revelations date back to September 2013 and establish a direct connection between Bardella's official Twitter account and antisemitic remarks found in private chats.

Mediapart retrieved three conversations involving Bardella, strengthening the connection between a controversial Facebook account and the RN leader. The antisemitic comments were made concurrently with posts on Bardella's verified Twitter profile, indicating a troubling continuity of such statements. Some messages on Messenger and Twitter were published within minutes of each other and even contained identical spelling mistakes, suggesting they originated from the same person.

Despite this evidence, Bardella has denied that some of the earliest incriminating messages were authored by him. A young member of the RN who had posted similar messages also denies ownership of the first message. Still, the media investigation provides further proof that the disputed Facebook account was indeed tied to Bardella.

This new investigative material corroborates earlier accusations and increases scrutiny on Bardella’s past conduct, raising significant questions about his affiliations and statements. The exposure is a major development in the ongoing political controversy surrounding the RN leader and antisemitism allegations.

As of October 9, 2026, the situation remains contentious with Bardella denying some claims. The emerging evidence, however, clearly links his official social media presence to offensive messages, deepening the political ramifications for France’s National Rally party and its leadership.
