New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the city's first Muslim mayor, condemned Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama for anti-Muslim social media posts, including one comparing Mamdani to the 9/11 attacks with the phrase "the enemy is inside the gates." Democrats including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Bernie Sanders have also criticized Tuberville's statements, which experts say contain false claims about attacks by Muslim extremists in the U.S.
