Former representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) described the Zizians, a group linked to multiple homicides, as a "roving band of murderous transsexual vegans."

Gaetz made the statement Friday in response to an interview with journalist Andy Ngo, who detailed how the cult, led by Jack LaSota—also known as "Ziz"—allegedly targeted victims for ideological reasons. During an episode of The Matt Gaetz Show for One America News Network, Ngo explained that the group, which emerged from rationalist and anarchist movements, had engaged in a series of violent acts, including the killings of a landlord, a U.S. Border Patrol agent, and Zizian cult-member Michelle Zajko's parents.
