Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) speculated that his MAGA Christian followers might “start killing people” after New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani practiced his Muslim faith in government offices.
During a Thursday interview with Burchett, MAGA influencer Benny Johnson noted that Mamdani had recently held a religious event in the mayor’s office, much like President Donald Trump has done at the White House.
“Mamdani yesterday doing a Muslim religious ceremony inside of the New York mayor’s office is exactly what you’re talking about,” he told Burchett. “Everyone, everybody’s barefoot and sitting on rugs and like doing religious, doing Islamic religious ceremonies inside of, I think it’s Gracie Mansion or potentially the New York mayor’s office. Either way, an official office with the official flags. And it’s like, you know, what is this? You’re exactly right. The communists are at the door.”
“It’s clearly, obviously, just separation of our country from Christianity is what they’re after,” Johnson added.
“Absolutely,” Burchett agreed. “I don’t want all my Christians to get angry and think we’re going to, you know, we’re going to start killing people. I hear some Christians say some things that are pretty unchristian, but, but we need to get involved politically.”
“9/11 happened, Muslim extremists, and we’ve got some that are in our government now,” he continued. “I see it there at the gate, and we better pay attention. And you talk about the Muslim faith and Sharia law, throwing gays off of buildings, hanging little kids that do mean tweets, poking the eyes out of little girls that wear makeup. A woman has the audacity of getting raped, and then they stone her to death because she’s guilty of something.”
“That is the Muslim faith, beheading Christians, journalists.”
