NY state Sen. John Liu sparks outrage with tweet calling Capitol siege scarier than 9/11

A New York lawmaker from Queens is getting big blowback for tweeting that since Wednesday’s Capitol riots, the 9/11 attack is no longer his most frightening memory.

“Seeing the Twin Towers crumble is no longer the most frightening moment of my life,” tweeted state Sen. John Liu (D-Queens).

The tweet, which Liu sent at 4:26 p.m. Wednesday afternoon, as the Washington, D.C., riot unfolded, is still being blasted as tone-deaf days later.

“Tell that to the families of those who died that day,” responded @CatalinaLauf.

“And to the men and women still suffering, being killed by the Global War on Terror as a result of that day. Truly shameful.”

“C’mon, man,” snarked @michaelsmass.

“You were this close to being indicted for campaign finance fraud,” he added, referencing the then-city comptroller’s brush with the law in 2014, during his failed run for mayor. “I imagine that was a bit more harrowing.”

  1. Only because it happened directly to you and not others. Sometimes you need to reap what you sow. Welcome to the American that is growing tired or the political elite shoving their agenda down our throats. Nothing ever gets done, only thing that changes is it costs more money than last time to do the same nothing.

  2. Of course they would say that, they are scared the people are goign to rise up against their BS and corruption! As all politicians, and cops and anyone who wants tyranny or to help push tyranny should be scared!
