- Nearly 80,000 people signed an online petition urging the National September Memorial & Museum to bar NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani from the 25th anniversary ceremony at the former Twin Towers site in Lower Manhattan.

- Political discourse has intensified, with President Donald Trump drawing backlash for comparing a Michigan election to 9/11, remarks critics labeled "obscene" and inaccurate.
