Recently, a series of phony social media accounts, and a phony job posting, have appeared for a “Draft Jacob Frey for Congress” committee. \u00a0 Frey is, of course, the extreme-extreme-liberal city councilman who is challenging extreme liberal mayor Betsy Hodges in the upcoming Minneapolis mayoral race.<\/p>\n

Turns out it all came from someone in her campaign; Hodges’ campaign manager blames “an intern”.<\/p>\n

She delivered an “apology” yesterday:<\/p>\n

\n

“It happened. I did not know about it until it was brought to my attention, and when it was I immediately took action to remedy the situation,” Hodges wrote on Facebook<\/a>. “That is not the kind of campaign I choose to run nor the kind of person I choose to be. I extend my apologies to [Council Member] Frey and his team for the incident and will work to make sure nothing like that happens from my team again.”<\/p>\n

Hodges said she learned of the fake posting Monday night from Contreras, and told campaign staff that if something like this happens again, someone will lose their job.<\/p>\n

“I communicated to my team, with vehemence, what my values are, what my expectations are about how we operate, that this falls outside my values, and that if it happens again the result will be termination,” she said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Translation: \u00a0it was no intern. \u00a0It was someone on her team.<\/p>\n

As Sarah Janecek notes – show us the intern.<\/p>\n

(And as Janecek points out, that intern had better be making $15 an hour. \u00a0If they exist. \u00a0Which they do not).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
