Democrats Rip Tuberville over ‘Vicious, Racist’ Post Linking Mamdani, 9/11

Tuberville's quote-retweet linked NYC's Muslim mayor to terrorism, sparking accusations of Islamophobia amid rising anti-Muslim sentiment and protests, officials said.

  • On Thursday, U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville quote-retweeted a post from @EndWokeness that paired a photo of New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani praying with a 9/11 plane-strike image captioned 'the enemy is inside.'
  • Earlier this month, conservative talk show host Sid Rosenberg called Mamdani a 'jihadist' and a 'Radical Islam cockroach,' while Republican congressmembers and a right-wing protest at Gracie Mansion intensified Islamophobia amid President Donald Trump's war in Iran.
  • Just hours before the event, Mayor Mamdani spent Thursday afternoon reworking his remarks by hand at City Hall and delivered a 10-minute speech to hundreds of Muslim city workers at an Iftar.
  • On Friday, Tuberville clarified he didn’t 'suggest' Islamists are the enemy, as outlets like the Washington Post, Fox News, and Politico reported, amid local political tensions.
  • Mamdani and Muslims nationwide have faced a torrent of Islamophobia this week, coinciding with a failed attack by two alleged Islamic State sympathizers, raising safety concerns.
