    Same recycled playbook: demonize a religion, scream “enemy,” and hope voters don’t notice there’s Zero substance behind the outrage.

  2. Tommy Tuberville is prone to wild exaggeration.
    I feel no greater threat than that from Republicans.

    Why the fuck would anyone listen to Tommy Tuberville? He can’t figure out how to coach against a zone let alone govern.

  4. Are we now pretending to be surprised when a Republican officeholder says something racist? It’s who they are, and they graduated from dog whistles years ago.

  5. I hope that, when I win an election to public office and swear on a copy of Rachel Reid’s Heated Rivalry, Tommy Tuberville has a fuckin heart attack.

  6. Imagine how dumb and bigoted you need to be to stand out amongst other Republicans as an idiot and a bigot. It’s actually kind of impressive in a way.

    if the enemy is inside the gates because someone used a Quran, then the gates were never about freedom to begin with.

  8. To Tommy Tuberville, putting your hand on a Quran is apparently worse than refusing to put your hand on a Bible.

  9. He’s gotta be the dumbest fucking senator. Alabama football coach to senator. Ok. Whatever. Thanks Alabama.

    Now I want to see a debate between Mamdani and Tuberville. It would be hilarious, like watching the Dodgers play a little league team.

  11. Senator Tuberville is from Arkansas. Maybe he should fuck off back to his own state and stop worrying about what a city in another state is doing.

    This is none of his fucking business, and his racist, redneck ass would be whining if someone from New York were trying to dictate who should be mayor of [insert largest city in Arkansas, the name of which I cannot even bother to know because the entire state is less significant than New York City].

    Red states never want the federal government telling them what to do. Fine. Take your own fucking medicine and leave the blue states alone. Oh, and give New York City back all the money its people and businesses pays in federal taxes so states like *Arkansas* will stop leeching off their success. It’s just *wild* to me that the *takers* in this country think they can dictate terms to the *makers*.

  12. Many sitting republicans and Christian nationalists, Tuberville among them, have a well documented history of an insurrection, and providing cover for said insurrection, against the United States on January 6th and defecating inside on the floors of congress. So……..?

    I’ll take Mamdani every day of the week and twice on Sunday instead of Tuberville.

    That guy who is getting a “free” plane from Qatar and let them built a military base on US soil? Or the guy who tells American soldiers to roll out a red carpet for a war criminal? Or the guy who is doing everything to destroy the country from the inside?

  14. Hey gets paid per comment. Just keep calling him a crisis actor. He get paid. Every newspaper should preface “crisis actor, Senator FLobablaba..”
