Socialist Dem mayoral candidate knocked over foreign-language rally as he loses key endorsement
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Democratic socialist and Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh, a Somali American, is being knocked for holding a political rally in a foreign language that appeared entirely devoid of any American flags.
This comes as Fateh, who has been likened to socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, lost a critical endorsement from the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL).
House Majority Whip Rep. Tom Emmer, R-Minn., commented on the rally, saying in an X post, «This is the least shocking news: There were almost no American flags at a @OmarFatehMN rally. Palestinian stickers were the main focus instead.»
«That’s what you get when Democrats back a candidate who puts America last, hands out benefits to illegals, and pushes to defund the police,» wrote Emmer.

Popular conservative social media account «End Wokeness» posted several excerpts from the rally, which included chanting in a foreign language and a crowd holding signs supporting Fateh.
«Omar Fateh rally in Minneapolis last night. 0 English. 0 American flags,» End Wokeness commented.
Another conservative influencer, Eric Daugherty, also chimed in, saying, «This was the rally for Omar Fateh last night, candidate for Mayor of Minneapolis. Third world music, third world language, third world attire.»
«Minneapolis is doomed,» added Daugherty.
«RED, WHITE &… GONE,» another popular conservative account called NewYork-I posted, adding, «Omar Fateh rally in Minneapolis without a single U.S. flag or word of English.»

On Thursday, the Minnesota DFL dropped its endorsement of Fateh, citing «substantial failures in the Minneapolis Convention’s voting process.»
DFL Party Chairman Richard Carlbom said in an official statement on Thursday that «after a thoughtful and transparent review of the challenges, the Constitution, Bylaws & Rules Committee found substantial failures in the Minneapolis Convention’s voting process on July 19th, including an acknowledgment that a mayoral candidate was errantly eliminated from contention.»
Carlbom said that as a result of the review, «the Constitution, Bylaws & Rules Committee has vacated the mayoral endorsement.»
He called on the Minnesota Democratic Party to «turn our focus to unity and our common goal,» saying, «with an eye towards the 2026 midterms, the Minnesota DFL will broaden our coalition to elect leaders who will build an affordable economy that works for everyone.»
Fateh’s campaign had not responded to Fox News Digital’s request for comment by the time of publication.
However, in a video statement posted on X, Fateh claimed that the decision to revoke his endorsement was made by «28 party insiders» who he said included supporters and donors of incumbent Mayor Jacob Frey. Frey is also a Democrat and has been endorsed by Minnesota Democratic Gov. and one-time vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz.

«This is exactly what Minneapolis voters are sick of, the insider games, the backroom decisions and feeling like our voice doesn’t matter in our own city,» Fateh claimed.
«Let me be clear,» he went on, «We’re still in this fight and we’re going to win.»
Fox News Digital reached out to Frey’s office for comment, but also did not receive a response by the time of publication.
In an X post, Frey wrote, «I’m proud to be a member of a party that believes in correcting our mistakes, and I’m glad that this inaccurate and obviously flawed process was set aside.»

«I look forward to having a full and honest debate with Senator Fateh about our city’s future, with the outcome now resting squarely where it should — with all the people of Minneapolis,» he wrote.

Emmer, meanwhile, weighed in on the controversy, telling Fox News Digital that «even Omar Fateh’s own state party knows his radical, leftist policies would just add to the damage the DFL has already done to Minneapolis.»
«They can blame their unsecured voting system, as ironic as that is, but we all know Fateh’s agenda was always doomed to fail,» said Emmer.

Top Trump agency torches Dem lawmakers rallying around detained Abrego Garcia: ‘It is insane’
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: The Department of Homeland Security is unleashing on Democrats who have condemned the move by ICE to detain Kilmar Abrego Garcia and deport him to Uganda.
Abrego Garcia is a Salvadoran national who was arrested by ICE on Monday at his check-in at the agency’s office in Baltimore, Maryland, and he’s expected to be deported to a third-party country, likely Uganda.
«Kilmar Abrego Garcia is not and will never be a Maryland Man—he is a criminal illegal alien from El Salvador and public safety threat,» a senior DHS Official told Fox News Digital in an exclusive statement.

«It is insane that sanctuary politicians chose to glorify and stand with an MS-13 gang member over the safety of American citizens. President Trump and Secretary Noem are not going to allow this illegal alien, who is an MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator, to terrorize American citizens any longer.»
Earlier this year, Abrego Garica was first deported to El Salvador for being a suspected gang member, which caused a nationwide controversy that sparked visits to the Central American country, including by Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Maryland. However, he ended up later facing charges in the U.S. for alleged human smuggling after a 2022 Tennessee traffic stop resurfaced.
Last week, Abrego Garcia made his way back to Maryland from Tennessee, and a U.S. Magistrate Judge ordered that if he was taken into ICE custody that he would need to have «access to his attorneys» in order to «prepare for trial in this case.» His brief freedom was slammed as the result of «publicity hungry Maryland judge» by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem.

In a news release first shared with Fox News Digital, DHS is specifically taking aim at a handful of posts on X from Democratic lawmakers.

«ICE is holding Kilmar Ábrego García and refusing to answer questions from his lawyers — while the Trump Admin continues to spread lies about his case. Instead of spewing unproven allegations on social media, they need to put up or shut up IN COURT. Mr. Ábrego García must be allowed to defend himself,» Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-M.D., posted on Monday.
«The Trump admin wrongly sent Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a horrific El Salvadoran prison. Now, just days after he was reunited with his family, they’re trying to deny him his rights and deport him to Uganda. Kilmar—like everyone—deserves a fair hearing to defend himself,» Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., posted.

«Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice,» Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, wrote.

His detention in Maryland is likely to be scrutinized by U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis, who intensely questioned Trump officials for details over his removal and his current legal status.

Netanyahu announces investigation into ‘tragic mishap’ after reports of journalists killed in Gaza strike
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that an investigation is underway after reports said Israel struck a hospital in the southern Gaza Strip, killing at least 20 people on Monday, according to reports.
Netanyahu said Israel regretted the deadly incident and reiterated that Israel does not intentionally target civilians in its war with Hamas. Reports said among the dead were five journalists who worked for outlets such as Reuters, The Associated Press, and Al Jazeera.
«Israel deeply regrets the tragic mishap that occurred today at the Nasser Hospital in Gaza,» Netanyahu’s office said in a statement.
«Israel values the work of journalists, medical staff and all civilians. The military authorities are conducting a thorough investigation. Our war is with Hamas terrorists. Our just goals are defeating Hamas and bringing our hostages home.»

Reports, citing medical officials, said two shells hit Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in quick succession. Israeli media reported that Israeli troops had fired the artillery rounds at the hospital to target a Hamas surveillance camera on the roof.
Cameraman Hussam al-Masri, a Reuters contractor, was killed near a live broadcasting position on an upper floor just below the roof in the first strike, Palestinian health officials said.
Israel then struck the site again, killing additional journalists as well as rescue workers and medics who had rushed in to help, hospital officials and witnesses told Reuters.
IDF Spokesperson Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin echoed Netanyahu’s comments, stressing that the military makes every effort to mitigate civilian harm while ensuring troop safety.
«We are operating in an extremely complex reality. Hamas terrorists deliberately use civilian infrastructure, including hospitals, as shields,» Defrin said in a video posted to social media. «They have even operated from the Nasser Hospital itself. Hamas began this war, created impossible fighting conditions and is preventing its end by still holding 50 of our hostages.»

Defrin said Israel will abide by international obligations and «investigate the deadly incident thoroughly and professionally.»
«Reporting from an active war zone carries immense risk, especially in a war with a terrorist organization such as Hamas, who cynically hides behind the civilian population,» he added.
The other journalists killed were identified as Mariam Abu Dagga, who freelanced for the Associated Press and other outlets; Mohammed Salama, who worked for Al Jazeera; Moaz Abu Taha, a freelancer who contributed to several news organizations, including Reuters; and Ahmed Abu Aziz.
