Tuberville Slams Mamdani Over Pen Gift | Birmingham News

Senator Tommy Tuberville is unleashing fiery criticism against New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, slamming him for giving a pen used to sign a 9/11 executive order to an attorney who defended an al-Qaeda member — whose brother-in-law was involved in the Pentagon attack. Tuberville calls the gesture “disgusting” and accuses Mamdani of embracing radical Islam. His attacks aren’t new: he’s also opposed Mamdani’s plan to open five city-run grocery stores by 2029, warning it undermines personal responsibility and encourages dependency on SNAP. Tuberville has gone even further, suggesting Mamdani should be sent to Guantanamo Bay, claiming he harbors anti-American views and seeks to fundamentally alter the nation. The feud underscores a sharp political rift over national security and domestic policy, with Tuberville doubling down on his opposition.
