In an exclusive interview with WCCO, U.S. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar announced she is endorsing Minnesota state Sen. Omar Fateh for the Minneapolis mayoral race.
While incumbent Mayor Jacob Frey has been endorsed by Gov. Tim Walz and Sen. Amy Klobuchar in his bid for a third term, this is Fateh's biggest endorsement to date.
"I am excited to announce that I will be supporting Sen. Fateh for mayor of Minneapolis," Omar said.
Omar put her stamp of approval on a grateful Fateh, who envisions a city that is more equal.
"I am really excited to have her support," Fateh said. "Minneapolis seems to be a tale of two cities: one for the wealthy and well-connected and one for everyone else."
The congresswoman believes the 35-year-old Democratic Socialist can lead with a progressive agenda.
"I have trust in the senator's track record that he will find a way to make sure we have ordinances that are passing through that speak to the desire and the needs of the residents of this city," Omar said.

Shocking
I wonder what he means by “more equal”.
I’m surprised that she hadn’t already.
Any relation to Al Fetah?
Did he marry his sister like ilhan married her brother while married to the husband of his offspring? Is this why ilhan admires and supports him?
Will he be her next husband? She must be tired of being married to a white guy by now, since she hates them so much.
The sammies stick together to keep their new Afrikan colony together.
Poor Hubert Humphrey; he would never have envisioned the pace of socialism in his beloved city of which he was a mayor in the 1940s.
Only Minneapolis could fall for such a creepy candidate.
“I wonder what he means by ‘more equal’. ”
All animals are equal. But some animals are more equal than others.
I didn’t see that coming, this is the enemy within
Unindicted co-conspirators in over $1 Billion in Somali fraud in MN, IMO.
Hoping the DOJ has all they need to hold these two, and hundreds of others, accountable.
Not!!!
I saw him in the Blade Runner remake trying to buy the wooden horse from K.
Does that guarantee her brother’s vote too?
Wow.
