Coach Tommy Tuberville, U.S. Senator from Alabama, used his social media platform on August 11, 2025, to comment on recent events in Washington, D.C., and to thank President Biden for actions taken regarding public safety in the capital.
In a post made at 14:24 UTC, Tuberville wrote, “Thank you @POTUS. It is beyond humiliating that our nation’s capital has been overrun by crime, gangs, and illegals. It’s time we MAKE D.C. SAFE AGAIN.”
Later that day at 17:55 UTC, he criticized local leadership while again expressing gratitude to the president: “Mayor Bowser has failed D.C. Thank you, @POTUS, for deploying the National Guard and for working to restore our capital to the shining jewel of America.”
Tuberville also referenced his outreach efforts in Alabama with a third post at 19:11 UTC: “Always good to visit with folks in the Wiregrass. Thanks to John Watson and members of the Dothan Rotary for having me today to give a D.C. update.”
Senator Tuberville’s remarks come amid ongoing national discussions about crime rates and public safety measures in major U.S. cities. The deployment of the National Guard in Washington, D.C., as referenced by Tuberville, follows similar actions taken during periods of unrest or heightened security concerns in previous years.
