Claim 2: “The alleged incident prompted Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) to call the conduct “repulsive””
SINGLE SOURCE
The JNS web search result explicitly mentions that the incident 'prompted Rep.' (cutting off at the end of the snippet), and the claim specifies he called it 'repulsive'. While the context strongly suggests this is the source, the provided evidence snippets do not contain the full quote 'repulsive' across multiple independent sources to reach 'corroborated' status.

SINGLE SOURCE
The JNS result confirms StopAntisemitism reported the incident. While other search results describe StopAntisemitism's general mission of 'holding antisemites accountable', the specific request for an investigation into this particular encounter is only implied by the reporting of the incident by the NGO in the JNS snippet.
