Catholic League President Bill Donohue Slams Mamdani Amid 9/11 Past Remarks: ‘Do Us All a Favor and Just Stay Home!’

EXCERPT:

DONOHUE: “I don't have a whole lot to say about Zohran Mamdani. He should not be here. I wrote him a letter on August the 3rd, it's up on our website, explaining why he's such a divisive figure. He said that something happened on 9/11. I'll tell you what happened. Radical Muslims came in here to bomb the United States of America. I don't say Muslims, because that's wrong, I'm talking about radical Muslims. He can't bring himself to say that. He is more concerned about Islamophobia than he is the death of 3,000 people, innocent people, on that day. This man is a disgrace to veterans, and believe me, as a Catholic, we contacted the NYPD, the FDNY, and Port Authority a year later. Eighty-five to ninety percent of the first responders who were murdered, they were Catholic. So we have a special interest in that too, and we stand with our Jewish brothers and sisters against the likes of Hasan Piker, who says nothing but good things about the Houthis, Hezbollah, and Hamas. It's a disgrace. Mamdani do us all a favor and just stay home.”
