Democratic Party convention descends into 'complete chaos' in Minnesota
Fox News ^ | 05/15/2023 | Greg Norman

Posted on 05/15/2023 2:18:48 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The leader of Minnesota’s Democratic Party says he is calling an emergency meeting this week to "ban individuals engaged in violent assaults" from its ranks after a tense confrontation erupted over the weekend at an event to nominate candidates for a Minneapolis City Council seat.

The showdown between supporters of Minneapolis Council Member Aisha Chughtai and her challenger, Nasri Warsame, on Saturday has been surrounded by allegations of assault from both campaigns ahead of the November election.

Video shows the incident began after a crowd of Chughtai supporters took the stage in preparation for her speech, which caused an uproar among Warsame supporters. Some Warsame supporters then jumped on the stage, shouting, banging on tables and waving signs. The Ward 10 convention ultimately was adjourned without a nominee being chosen.

That’s because they aren’t “democratic..” they are Demoncrats.

Song lyric for the Dem bustin’ some moves....

Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting—Elton John

Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
‘Cause Saturday night’s the night I like
Saturday night’s alright alright alright, ooh

Well they’re packed pretty tight in here tonight
I’m looking for a dolly who’ll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out she’s with me

A couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I’m a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass, oh
Saturday night’s alright for fighting.

Don’t give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night’s alright for fighting
Get a little action in

Are these people even legally allowed to vote? Are they US citizens?

Thank you.

The people of Somalia aren’t exactly pro U. S., and to bring
one of them here and place her in our government causes me
to devalue our over-all leadership intelligence even more.

To those that say there are good Somalian people, I can say
that I support that theory. This one however, proves my
point much better than I ever could.

Our vetting isn’t worth “s”.

Smile. That may be nearly true, but I can think of one that
doesn’t.

Take care...
