City Council Ethics Committee charges Queens CM Paladino with disorderly behavior for Islamophobic tweets

New York City Councilwoman Vickie Paladino is once again in the hot seat as the City Council Ethics Committee charged her with disorderly behavior on March 3 for Islamophobic tweets she posted on her X account, one of which was directed at Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s chief immigration officer appointee, Linda Sarsour.

“New York is under foreign occupation. There’s really no other way to put it,” Paladino’s post responding to the appointment on Feb. 17 said. “Does this administration have one single actual American in it?”
