Arena in Minnesota, United States
POPULARITY
I'm joined by my authoritative bald-headed friend Josh Martin and Taylor Dahlin (aka Rondi Arradondi) for an examination of the wildest, weirdest Minneapolis DFL convention in recent memory. Omar Fateh is your DFL endorsed candidate for mayor. This convention hit so hard that the most normal thing to happen all day was Scott Graham (congressional district 5 DFL chair) getting kicked out of for allegedly calling a Jewish arena worker a "Nazi" after Graham attempted to smuggle food into the arena. Electronic balloting difficulties, delay tactics, and a mind-numbing series of speeches from 20 park board hopefuls took the convention to the 11th hour before everything fell into place for mayoral challenger Omar Fateh and a slate of progressive, union-backed park board candidates. Helping things along was a disastrous strategic decision from Mayor Frey's campaign to pull all their delegates in a last ditch attempt to deny quorum (or simply cast a cloud over the legitimacy of the proceedings). This tactical decision devastated the chances of a bunch of park board candidates who are Frey's ostensible allies -- because his campaign pulled their delegates from the convention, all of the remaining park board endorsement votes went against the Frey faction. One of the DFL endorsed candidates for park board, Jason Garcia, joins us in this episode.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee

Omar Fateh wins the DFL endorsement for mayor of Minneapolis, best of luck to a once great city.......The Minneapolis DFL Party convention ended Saturday night in a chaotic flurry of activity that saw state Sen. Omar Fateh claim the party's endorsement for mayor.Why it matters: The young democratic socialist lawmaker's victory over two-term sitting mayor Mayor Jacob Frey is a major coup for left-wing critics hoping to unseat the well-funded incumbent.It's also the Minneapolis DFL's first endorsement in any contested mayor's race since at least 1997, per the Star Tribune.What they're saying: "Today, we witnessed a rejection of politics as usual," Fateh said in his victory speech on the Target Center floor just before 10pm."We know the status quo are going to do anything and everything to maintain power," he told his supporters. "They'll have all the money in the world … But they don't have you."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Minneapolis DFL endorsed its first mayoral candidate in 16 years over the weekend. After a full day of haggling at the Target Center on Saturday, more than 60 percent of voters at the convention gave a thumbs up to Democratic Socialist and current state Sen. Omar Fateh. He is one of several candidates planning to run against incumbent Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey in the fall. Frey has served two terms as mayor since 2018. Journalist Kyle Stokes reported on the convention for Axios Twin Cities and he joined Minnesota Now with the details.
We saw over the weekend locally Omar Fateh won the DFL endorsement over current Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey while leaving many heads turning at the convention over at Target Center and currently, the current Trump Administration is at odds when it comes to the Epstein case where the current president is doing anything to distract from it - we try to break it all down for you!
