Minnesota's Democratic Farmer-Labor Party has stripped democratic socialist Omar Fateh of the endorsement for Minneapolis mayor he won at last month's convention. Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar said, "This decision will be a stain on our party for years to come."
Ilhan Omar says the DFL’s decision demonstrated the “clear tension between the progressive Democrats who are challenging the status quo and moderate Democrats.”
We need to stop calling them “moderate” Democrats. We need to name them what they are because there’s nothing moderate about them. They are conservative Democrats. They are basically 1980s Republicans.
