@IlhanMN's 2020 kickoff was 8 days ago.
Yet 0 MN outlets covered its 2 big items:
1. Manager @ClaireBergren supported Baltimore riots, violence (“less MLK”).
2. Guhaad (See my recent tweets).
Let's focus on @ClaireBergren:
(1/x)
This one was particularly striking: How does “less MLK” not draw attention from local media?
It didn’t, and hasn’t.
Her posts get far more troubling -- see below.
(2/x)
Yet she hired @ClaireBergren, whose social media includes all this.
Perhaps @IlhanMN knows local media won’t bother.

Including the occasionally deadly act of shutting down highways -- which Bergren appears to have participated in.

Here's their coverage of her 2020 campaign kickoff.
Nothing about @ClaireBergren.
And, of course, not a word about Guhaad Hashi’s multiple, explicit threats to me: archive.is/uXFMP

Will @StarTribune, @MPR, or @AP follow up on the disturbing posts from @IlhanMN’s campaign manager @ClaireBergren?
Or the threats from @IlhanMN’s alleged 2016 “muscle” -- ex-con (triple stabbing) Guhaad H. Said?
(I've reported them to @FBI.)
(8/x)
@IlhanMN is well-known, yet outlets give zero effort.
Imagine how poor coverage is elsewhere.
If you'd read a subscription email on races where local news fails, DM me -- I’ll do it if support is there.
As always, tips keep me going!
