Hey Northeast mpls Bluesky: submissions to The Northeaster are due Tues 10/14 for the 10/22 edition. Sure would be nice if they had soo many progressive letters to the editor that they had to at least post one!

It’s truly wild to watch people staunchly maintain that it doesn’t even matter if they live in Ward 3 as long as it’s “northeast”

In this edition of Minneapolis Clunker Watch 2025: Trumpers emboldened.

Liam Davis Temple @liam2manynames.bsky.social · 2d

Brian Strahan supporters are making the case on the I Love NE FB group (the bad one) to vote for Brian because he’s liked by republicans. When the person initially making this point tried to then distance it from saying Trump supporters like him, the Trump supporting moderator confirmed it.

Jill Davis: “Conor Hesch Sounds like you like Brian. But the fact remains, he has not lived in Ward 1 until the last month. He has not been upfront about his residency. Quite honestly, I don't find it a bonus point to have Republicans supporting your candidate.”

Anonymous member 619: “Conor Hesch Wow the Trump voters like him? He's perfect for our city council then?”

Conor Hesch: “Anonymous member 619 | doubt Trump-fans like Brian but I know some moderate republicans who do.”

Katrina Johnson Moderator: “Conor Hesch This Trump fan likes him.”

I also read in the thread many excuses and minimization of the importance of honest, clear and transparent communication regarding their candidate.

What is up with mayor-aligned candidates who only JUST moved into the districts they hope to represent? And why are people buying their bullshit? How can you represent a district where you have no history, no connection, no community? Who are they really there to serve?

This morning antisemitic threats were made at Temple Israel. This follows the racist & islamophobic threats in our Ward last night and a fire last week at Alhikma Islamic Center mosque.

Tonight a resident posted a picture of racist and Islamaphobic language written on Johnson street that called for @omarfatehmn.com to be deported and wished death upon the Somali community. @doronclark.bsky.social and I showed up right away to get this racist garbage off of our streets

Thank you Minneapolis Building and Construction Trades Council for your endorsement! I have a track record of always standing with workers, which is why I’m the only labor endorsed candidate in this race.

Just delivered a sign for someone who requested it because their landlord put up a Strahan sign. This shows the choice we have this election.

Elect someone who fights for renters who actually live here, or elect someone that voted in Ward 3 in January 2025 that’s having landlords put up his signs.

Screenshot from Blois' Morning Take.

It's the kind of maddening circular reasoning that leads to status quo and voter alienation. Whether or not you think Fateh's policies would help these problems, Frey's policies CREATED them. Jacob Frey IS the mayor of Minneapolis, and has been for 8 years.

Omar Fateh @omarfatehmn.com · 9d

The goal is to have no encampments. But until the city funds housing-first solutions, they're inevitable. Frey's encampment sweeps don't work. He isn't solving homelessness, he's wasting valuable resources. Everyone deserves a dignified path to housing, not a fenced off sidewalk.
