Giuliani Says Mamdani Should Skip 9/11 Memorial
In a story that's built on questions of Giuliiani's credibility vs. Mamdani's, the New York Times should have pointed out that Giuliani has been disbarred in both Washington, DC, and New York.
Orc Wizard175The headline should read “Disgraced Ex-Mayor Makes Bigoted Comments to Far-Right Rag in Desperate Bid to Stay Relevant.”
This Pope is a Dope 🇵🇸 🇵🇸69NY Times should also have pointed out that Giuliani was caught on cameras playing with himself over what he thought was a young girl.
RFK Brain Worm Jr.41No one got more mileage out of those who died on 9/11 than Giuliani. He's a ghoul. Rudy used all that good will to be a shill for the most evil men in America. He's a national disgrace.
AMPTsuper33Definitely newsworthy. 2024 “The seriousness of respondent’s misconduct cannot be overstated,” the decision reads. Giuliani “flagrantly misused” his position and “baselessly attacked and undermined the integrity of this country’s electoral process.” apnews.com/article/giul... by Philip Marcelo
Transitional Fossil32absolutely wrong. Mamdani loves NYC and works to improve it every day. Giuliani is a member of the crime family that's destroying this country. f-ck him.
Happy-go-Loki.22Not having read it, I’d bet they didn’t use the words “disgraced former mayor” or “fall from grace” even once
Bill Grueskin1149The post-9/11 lionization of Giuliani rings hollow for many of us who lived and worked in lower Manhattan that day. He and his staff (along with Bush's EPA) frequently reassured us that the air quality was fine. It wasn't, as was apparent to anyone who was there on 9/11 and the weeks thereafter. 1/
Kylie Eleison165Also, while it might be difficult to adapt for the house style, that time he was filmed preparing to receive sexual favors from what he thought was a teenage girl
Vibecession Forever37Is there a single good faith argument for taking these people seriously? These calls are transparently racist and islamophobic, and it’s embarrassing for the Times to even remotely validate it with a headline like this.
Paul Guinnessy27One is a convicted disbarred lawyer, the other is the Mayor of New York. I know which one should be there, and which one has destroyed all the goodwill he obtained that day.
LOWρUFO 🇺🇦🇵🇸🌍24Is MEK not going to stand up for Mamdani here?
Didi is a trans immigrant 🏳️⚧️15If your headline starts with "Giuliani says," I don't care what follows unless and until he turns state's evidence against Trump.
Gayton Gomez11Statements that Mamdani should stay away from the 9/11 memorial are so nakedly bigoted they take my breath away. Ffs, he was a little elementary school kid living in NYC when the attacks happened. If you think he should stay away from the memorial, you are a shit person and an idiot
Chris “Chance!” Brown10Giuliani strikes me as a dude who should have passed a long time ago and now we’re just getting him doing whatever while he’s waiting for his life choices to catch up
YIMBYs Against Ezra Klein7Shouldn’t you be in jail
GenXJamerican🇯🇲🇺🇸6“But in the years since, Mr. Giuliani has politically drifted far to the right …” baloney. The guy who led police officers in a riot against Mayor David Dinkins years before did not “drift” after 9/11
Can you imagine the absolute furor if Mamdani said Giuliani should stay away and listed all of the ways he's disgraced himself over the last decade.
Schooley124Rudy can go have a press conference at Grounds Zero Cafe.
Post Mo Thóin (Dave)12I'm just impressed the NYT is opening the story with "In an anti-Muslim diatribe" and not "Raised legitimate concerns."
seekingjustice.bsky.social12Mamdani isn’t in business with the guys who did 9/11- that’s the entire GOP I seriously don’t understand how this is even real life sometimes.
wharf rat8Giuliani should be prohibited from anywhere within a mile of schools and playgrounds
web_rant7Hoping Mamdani greats him with "Rudy! Tell me about your decision to put the command center in the WTC so you could have an affair there!"
thomascoyle7Giuliani needs to stay away from any remembrance of the day. Think of how many people died because of his negligence, like not upgrading the first responders communications and placing the city’s emergency command center at a likely target location.
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he will attend ceremonies marking the 25th anniversary of the September 12 attacks, responding after former Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Mamdani's presence would offend him.
Green Hombre27Fuck Giuliani. He tried to overturn a free and fair democratic election. He’s anti American.
Sir Chumlee24Fuck Rudy. His continuous oxygen consumption offends me, so . . .?
RedwoodGirl21Such a classy response. I'd have been tempted to say that it's Giuliani who shouldn't attend and that his presence would be an insult to New Yorkers but he steered well clear of that. Mamdani is a good role model for anyone dealing with piece of shit bigots like Giuliani.
Lisa (SoldierGirl)💔🤍💙 💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊21Mayor Mamdani is an American Citizen! Giuliani is a traitor to this country, who lost his law license due to lies about the 2020 election to help trump. Giuliani is the one who shouldn't show up for 9/11.
DesertGuy15Rudy is a colossal POS... No one important gives a shit what that insurrection inciter has to say. Mamdani isn't going to give in to their bigotry.
Sabai14Giuliani's existence out of prison bothers me.
Not one mention of Giuliani’s 9/11 scandals and fuckups and scandalous fuckups.
Chris⚖️Justice19Rudy admitting under oath he lied about 2020 election fraud bsky.app/profile/chri...
Comfortably Numb19he is still alive, huh
Regime Change Begins At Home11Any article about Giuliani that uses an image other than this one is journalistic malpractice. It should run over his obituary.
Tina Hoggatt11Such a hateful man and failure as a human being.
Gordon Forbes🇺🇸🏳️🌈🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇺🦞8Mamdani says “Giuliani? I thought he was buried at Four Seasons Cemetery.”
patronzo6I suppose that yeah, somebody was going to ask Rudolph his opinion, but it sure as hell isn't worth a headline and story in the NY Fuc*ing Times
Allison Whitney25Allow me to give the loudest possible rec for @osullyville.bsky.social’s Outfit podcast on Giuliani, the mob, the Towers and 9/11 This day and age, I‘m loathe to recommend a podcast so if I do, you better believe it’s good. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...
Maya Media14Rudy murdered so many fire fighters that day.
Maj9Bro had a whole ass RICO & was a lost election away from prison and he's saying this.
jsaquella5Maybe the asshole that help kill 343 first responders should shut the fuck up
Jimmy Cigarillos3Giuliani should be forced to communicate with the outdated radios he refused to upgrade prior to 9/11.
Chris F.2If Mamdani skips the ceremony, they’ll say he’s dishonoring the victims. If Mamdani attends the ceremony, they’ll say he’s dishonoring the victims. These people won’t be pleased no matter what he does, so there’s no sense in giving them airtime.
JC2Giuliani is a drunk, a fraud and a liar. His opinion is irrelevant.
unhinged leftist ☭🔻2and why building 7 went boom
Rachael Levay2Truly believed Giuliana had died and was somehow sharing opinions from hell.
robertus2Knicks championships when Giuliani was mayor: zero
The "growing criticism" is coming from the likes of election denier Rudy Giuliani. Maybe that should be in the headline. abcnews.com/US/george-pa...
Gustavo Burdman42If the city of New York had a problem with a Muslim being at the 9/11 ceremony, it wouldn't have elected him Mayor.
wrestlingdad1975.bsky.social7Rudy G is still alive? Also why should I give a rat’s ass what that fascist has to say anyway
Uncle Antifa5Why wouldn’t the mayor attend? That’s the dumbest shit I’ve heard. (Today 😒)
Ponsonby Britt3Mamdani loses popularity among voters who almost whipped it out in a Borat movie.
Nash132It was on Giuliani's insistence that the main disaster coordination for the New York area was headquartered inside the World Trade Center.
Matty!32Also, the criticism is literally just gutter racism so like, we shouldn’t be legitimizing it by calling it “criticism’ in the first place.
Kim Acuff Steiner12See? I like democrats with spines. Like this gent who isn't going to let some troglodyte stop him from doing the *right* thing.
Well, it offends me that a man who has been disbarred for crimes involving moral turpitude and who Trump shielded for a number of other likely felony convictions would be given a place at such a gathering.
Chris⚖️Justice1Rudy Giuliani, another coup ringleader never held accountable. Here's Rudy admitting under oath all his 2020 election fraud claims were LIES, he didn't even bother to investigate. No Justice bsky.app/profile/chri...
One in 8.3 billion more or less.1Howard Lutnick and Rudy G. should be in prison.
Michael Wolfe1Let’s see if his head leaks hydraulic fluid again…
collburns.bsky.social1FO you corrupt old man!
Robert Stribley1This guy has advice for Mamdani?
Giuliani is disgusting, bigoted slime who should be in prison, not at Ground Zero. ‘It Offends Me’: Giuliani Says Mamdani Should Skip 9/11 Memorial www.nytimes.com/2026/09/06/n...
Just V10That's funny, Giuliani should be in prison.
AllCaps-228How often has Giuliani met with Saudi’s since 9/11?
Don Hoskins | 🍁 Feelin' Nasty Today 🍁3Just as not all Americans are assholes, not all Muslims are terrorists... Mr. Giuliani has secured his place atop the American Assholes Hall of Fame long ago, so maybe he should just stay home & stfu... Mr. Mamdani's appearance is an official duty, not a political or religious statement... 🤷♂️
IMPEACH & REMOVE2Of coarse, if Mamdani decided to skip the 9/11 Memorial, Guiliani (and his ilk) would also be tremendously offended. As mayor of NYC, Mamdani should be there, and people who practice the Muslim faith were killed along side Christians, Jews, and others on 9/11.
