A top staffer for Ohio Senator Jon Husted, a Republican, was fired after The Washington Post uncovered his ties to SS reenactment culture, Nazi memorabilia, and playlists glorifying white-minority-ruled Rhodesia. Stephen Woytek, 25, had been Husted's political director since August. His public Facebook account featured a photo of real 1941 Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler Division soldiers as his profile picture, and he followed a WWII reenactment group dedicated to portraying that same SS unit. Woytek defended his hobby as historical reenactment, rejecting the racist and antisemitic ideology of Nazi Germany.
