Minnesota, USA – In a stunning turn of events, Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar is facing a primary challenge from a familiar foe, just as her progressive ‘Squad’ allies are reeling from recent setbacks.
According to sources, Somali-American businessman and community leader, Jamal Osman, has announced his candidacy against Omar in the upcoming Democratic primary. Osman, a longtime resident of Minneapolis, has been a vocal critic of Omar’s policies and has accused her of neglecting the needs of the Somali-American community.
This development comes as a major blow to Omar, who has been a key figure in the ‘Squad’ – a group of progressive lawmakers that includes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley. The group has been facing intense scrutiny and criticism in recent weeks, with some of its members facing primary challenges and the group’s popularity waning.
The news has sent shockwaves through the political establishment, with many observers predicting a tough primary battle for Omar. The Minnesota Democratic Party has released a statement expressing support for Omar, calling her a "trailblazing" leader who has been a "champion" for the state’s 5th congressional district.
