>> Ashley: THE FIRST SOMALI
ELECTED TO CONGRESS, ILHAN OMAR,
GETTING A NOT SO WARM WELCOME IN
HER HOME STATE.
>> Griff: CICELY DAVIS IS
RUNNING TO DEFEAT ILHAN OMAR IN
NOVEMBER.
THOSE BOOS LASTING A MINUTE OR
MORE ACCORDING TO THE VIDEO,
WHAT DO YOU THINK SPARKED THE
OUTRAGE?
>> HER POLICIES ARE UNPOPULAR TO
THOSE IN HER OWN COMMUNITY.
I AM NOT SHOCKED THEY BOOED HER,
VERY UNPOPULAR AMONGST THOSE AND
THE PEOPLE ARE SOMALIA AND
MINNEAPOLIS.
THEY DECIDED THEY WILL NO LONGER
OPERATE AS A MODELIST AND SHE
DOES NOT REPRESENT THEM AND THEY
ARE READY FOR A CHANGE AND THEY
ARE LOOKING FOR A CHAMPION WHO
REPRESENTS THEIR CONSERVATIVE
VALUES IN CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
FIVE.
>> Ashley: YOU ARE RUNNING
AGAINST HER TO GET HER OUT
OFFICE, WHAT ARE YOU RUNNING ON
TO GET PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR?
>> THE SOMALIS ARE NOT RUNNING
AS A MODELIST.
I KNEW WHEN I ENTERED THIS RACE
A YEAR AGO, I NEEDED TO LEAVE NO
STONE UNTURNED AND FORM
COALITION TO WIN THIS RACE.
WE ARE RUNNING ON PUBLIC SAFETY,
WE ARE FIGHTING CRIME AND
WORKING ON BRINGING ISSUES TO
THE PEOPLE AND GETTING THEM TO
UNDERSTAND WE’RE FOCUSED ON
KITCHEN TABLE ISSUES, GAS, GAS
PRICES, IT IS GROCERIES AND
FORMULA FOR BABIES.
AND WE ARE RUNNING ON EDUCATION,
FAMILIES IN MINNEAPOLIS AND
BUSINESSES ARE HURTING AND ILHAN
OMAR IS A WRECKING BALL TO THOSE
WHO WANT TO SURVIVE IN THIS
DISTRICT.
I AM STANDING UP TO HOLD HER TO
ACCOUNT.
>> Griff: CAN YOU BEAT HER?
SHE’S HEAVILY FAVORED, SHE’S A
MEMBER OF THE SQUAD, I’M SURE
HAS LITTLE TROUBLE FUNDRAISING,
BUT SOME SUGGEST THE BOOS WERE
DUE TO COMMENTS SHE MADE AT A
TOWN HALL WHERE SHE SAID SHE
EXPERIENCED MORE VIOLENCE IN
MINNESOTA THAN IN SIX YEARS SHE
SPENT IN A KENYAN REFUGE CAMP.
>> HOW INSULTING DO YOU THINK
THAT SOUNDS TO THE PEOPLE OF HER
COMMUNITY WHO FLED AND KNOW
WHERE THEY CAME FROM.
SHE LED THE CHARGE ALSO TO
DEFUND THE POLICE, WHICH
THANKFULLY FAILED IN NOVEMBER ON
THE BALLOT.
SHE IS ACTIVELY WORKING TO MAKE
US LESS SAFE.
YOU ASKED HOW CAN I WIN?
THIS DISTRICT TYPICALLY VOTED
BLUE FOR QUITE SOMETIME, I CAN
TELL YOU THIS, THE AWAKENING IS
HAPPENING AMONGST COALITIONS
I’VE WORKED HARD TO BUILD
KNOWING I NEED TO BUILD
COALITIONS TO WIN THIS RACE AND
I’M TELLING YOU, THOSE
COMMUNITIES AND THOSE PEOPLE ARE
DECIDING NOW IS TIME FOR A
CHANGE IF THEY CAN FIND A
CANDIDATE WILLING TO CHAMPION
SOMETHING THAT BRINGS PEOPLE
TOGETHER.
WE’RE GOING TO DISSOLVE THE VIBE
AND UNIFY THE PEOPLE AND HAVE
SOMEONE REPRESENT THE ISSUES
THAT MATTER TO PEOPLE OF
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT FIVE IN
D.C.
THAT IS WHAT I’M HEARING AND
HONORED.
>> Ashley: DAVID PATTERSON HAS
HARSH WORDS FOR CONGRESSWOMAN
ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ.
>>
>> Ashley: IS THREE LETTERS IN
THE ALPHABET.
I THINK SHE IS REALLY A PHANTOM
OF THE MEDIA.
>> Ashley: CICELY DAVIS, IS THE
SQUAD OVERRATED?
>> THE SQUAD IS OVERRATED, WHAT
MARXIST SOCIALIST POLICIES ARE
OVERRATED CHLTZ WHAT IS GOOD
ABOUT THIS DISTRICT AND THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE, THE MAJORITY
DECIDED THEY WANT COMMON SENSE
AND HOLDING ANYONE ACCOUNT WHO
IS ANTI-AMERICAN AND DOESN’T
STAND FOR POLICIES THAT UPLIFT
FAMILIES AND BUSINESSES AND
DOESN’T HURT POCKETBOOKS.
AMERICA IS CHASING UNDER BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION INFLATION
POLICIES AND ILHAN OMAR, ONE OF
THE LARGEST SPENDERS IN CONGRESS
PROPOSING WE SPENT ANOTHER $1.75
TRILLION TO ERASE COLLEGE DEBT,
IMAGINE THE IMPACT ON POLICY
WITH REGARD TO FINANCES HERE,
THAT HURTS FAMILIES, THAT HURTS BUSINESSES.
ABSOLUTELY OVERRATED, IT IS TIME
KLEADERS WILLING TO GIVE IT TO
THEM, WILLING TO GO TO
WASHINGTON, D.C. AND REPRESENT
THEM.
TAKE ANY ISSUE ON THE LEVEL,
ILHAN OMAR AND THE QUAD ARE ON
THE WRONG SIDE OF IT, THAT ENDS
WITH THIS CANDIDACY, I’M PROUD
TO BE THE ENDORSED CANDIDATE AND
I WILL REPRESENT THE PEOPLE.
WATCH FOR NOVEMBER, THAT CHANGE
WILL COME.
