At least two major U.S. cities are on the verge of electing Democrat Socialist muslim mayors – New York City and Minneapolis.
From the Daily Caller: Democratic mayoral candidate Omar Fateh of Minneapolis said in an interview that his first priority as mayor would be to protect “undocumented residents” from what he claimed was a “hostile federal government.”
Fateh won the endorsement of the Democratic-Farmer-Labor party in July over Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis, making him the favorite to win the general election in the city. Fateh — when asked by a reporter — laid out his priorities in a clip posted to X on Monday, claiming President Donald Trump was causing concern for “our neighbors.”
“Day one, if you were elected, what would be some of your top two, three priorities for the city?” the reporter asked Fateh.
“So that’s a very good question,” Fateh said. “So the first, I would say, would be a hostile federal government, with not only Donald Trump in office, but he has essentially a trifecta, both chambers of Congress and the Supreme Court. And a lot of our neighbors, especially our undocumented residents, are very concerned.”

Fateh, 35, was born in Washington, D.C., and is the son of Somalian immigrants. His policies are so similar to NYC Democrat socialist muslim mayor candidate Zohran Mamdani (an immigrant from Uganda) that many call him the ‘Mamdani of the Midwest.’
Fateh is supported by multiple progressive groups, including the Democratic Socialists of America, the Sunrise Movement, and the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party.
Fateh has a sister-in-law, Zaynab Mohamed, who is a Minnesota State Senator.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich wrote Tuesday morning, “The Democratic Party of Bill Clinton is gone. Big government socialism has taken over led by figures like Zohran Mamdani & Omar Fateh, cheered on by Elizabeth Warren. The result? Radical economics, extreme social policies, and a shrinking base.”
