Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand Demands Sen. Tommy Tuberville Apologize for Islamophobic Post – Twitchy

On Thursday, Sen. Tommy Tuberville sounded the alarm on New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Ramadan Iftar inside city hall:

The enemy is inside the gates. https://t.co/YSNHIpDnds

— Coach Tommy Tuberville (@SenTuberville) March 12, 2026

As our own Just Mindy reported earlier, Mamdani responded with some nonsense about breaking bread with New Yorkers and kids going hungry:

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers. https://t.co/IibwxE1SDr

— Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani (@NYCMayor) March 12, 2026

We’re sure there are more, but Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand demanded that Tuberville delete his disgraceful Islamophobic post and apologize:

This type of Islamophobia is disgraceful and unbecoming of a senator. Delete it immediately and apologize. https://t.co/EGqTp6gEeY

— Kirsten Gillibrand (@SenGillibrand) March 12, 2026

Gillibrand’s timing isn’t the best when it comes to crying about “Islamophobia.”

3 Islamic terror attacks in 2 weeks and Democrats’ biggest concern is “Islamophobia.”

The literal definition of toxic empathy. https://t.co/m8EI1MjXn5

As we noted in an earlier post, End Wokeness counted four: there were the ISIS-inspired teens who threw IEDs into a crowd peacefully protesting in front of Gracie Mansion, a man drove a car filled with explosives into a synagogue in Michigan today, a man who’d been convicted and served time for supporting ISIS shot and killed an ROTC instructor at Old Dominion University, and don’t forget the mass shooter at a bar in Austin, Texas, who was wearing a “Property of Allah” sweatshirt over a T-shirt featuring the Iranian flag.

As for Gillibrand:

Ask your doctor if ingesting a satchel of Richards is right for you

How’s about you go ahead and f*** right the f*** off?

Gillibrand has no respect for the victims of 9/11. Just like Mamdani has no respect for NYC’s City Hall.

He invited a terrorist sympathizer. The senator is accurate. pic.twitter.com/7HZYgYnQEq

He’s talking about you.

If you can’t see the truth of his post perhaps you should apologize and delete your account.

— M Lynne (@mlysimonsen) March 12, 2026

No. We need strong men like Tuberville to tell the truth, not women like you shutting them up.

There is no such thing as Islamophobia

— reality-based (@reality_1323) March 12, 2026

It’s not “Islamaphobia,” it’s pattern recognition.

— Dave Markowitz (@davemarkowitz) March 12, 2026

No deleting.
No apologies either.
He is 100% correct.

When someone sits in City Hall and gives the ISIS sign you bet your ass, we will speak up. pic.twitter.com/KSTyB9Eh3z

When are you go to apologize for voting to allow MILLIONS of unvetted Muslims into our country?

— Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) March 12, 2026

Islamophobia, you mean the anti American excuse to muzzle critique of Islam?

— Stuart Berman (@HereticalLeader) March 12, 2026

As we said, Gillibrand’s timing with this post isn’t the best. It might have gone over better on a day when there weren’t two terrorist attacks by Muslims.
