GOP senator earns Dem backlash for 'enemy is inside the gates' comment about NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (Sen Tommy Tuberville)
Fox News ^ | Alex Nitzberg

Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama declared "the enemy is inside the gates" when sharing a post on X that juxtaposed a photo of the September 11, 2001, terror attack on the Twin Towers with an image of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

The post Tuberville shared was from an account called "End Wokeness," which included a message that read, "Less than 25 years apart."

The image appears to show Mamdani hosting a Ramadan Iftar event at city hall, based on an Instagram post from an account called "muslimnews" that includes video footage which matches up with the image of Mamdani that End Wokeness shared on X.

...

"This is mindless hate," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer asserted in a post on X. "Muslim Americans are cops, doctors, nurses, teachers, bankers, bricklayers, mothers, fathers, neighbors, mayors, and more. Islamophobic hate like this is fundamentally un-American and we must confront and overcome it whenever it rears its ugly head."

Tuberville shared Schumer's post and declared, "Calling Radical Islam out for being a CULT doesn’t make you an ‘Islamophobe.’ Radical Islamists chant ‘death to America’ and would love to see every Christian and Jew murdered. Under Sharia Law, if you are not a Muslim, you are the ENEMY. Under Sharia Law, minorities are PERSECUTED. Under Sharia Law, women are SOLD, RAPED, and TRAFFICKED. Don’t believe me?? Read it for yourself! Radical Islam is NOT compatible with the Constitution and has NO PLACE IN AMERICA. I won’t be silenced about this."

Excellent advice and a fine challenge.

Meanwhile the Democrats keep DHS shutdown as the homeland suffers jihad attack after jihad attack. Are the Dems taking orders from Ayatollah “limpy” Motojab?

Muslims and Hindus don’t belong in western civilization. They are colonizers who hate normal Americans for being White and/or Christian. They are not thankful being allowed to live here but think we are suckers for being nice to them (and they are correct)

Tuberville and Kenndy are my favorite senators! We need more like them.

The other day mamdani allowed prayer rugs in front of the 9-11 fire fighter memorial.

How much proof does America need that we cannot afford to allow these people in our country?

The people who left the gate open are complaining about his comment.

Zohran Mamdani IS the “enemy within the gates”, amply supported by the quislings who have been running New York City for decades now. The Democratique Partei is a twisted caricature of what it once was, and no longer represents much if anything at all of the American Spirit, marching to a muffled and distant drum.

The municipality will soon be totally bankrupt, with no resources to tap to cover the shortfall. Nobody has ever taxed their way out of financial ruin, at any level, at anytime in history. It is still a challenging task to foreclose on a municipality, but perhaps it could be divided up as parcels and sold on the open market, as a liquidation measure to discharge the pending debts.

The word Islam literally translated means SUBMISSION. What else does anyone need to know?

% of Americans agreeing with him going up is my guess, even milk toast Speaker Johnson talking about Sharia law infringeing now plus local contests flipping Republican after decades of dem control the other day

Democrats would bring backlash on Mother Theresa for wearing outfits that project hate and religious intolerance.

He’s not wrong at all.
It’s amazing the city that was attached by Islamist is now being run by an Islamist posing as a Communist.

I admit to having a phobia about SUBMISSION!
