AUTOMATED SUMMARY
Streamer Hasan Piker and Rep. Ilhan Omar appeared Monday night at a sold-out Minneapolis event hosted by state Sen. Omar Fateh. At the event, Piker described Republicans as terrorists and Omar used the phrase "pedophile protection party" for the GOP.
Critics including Republicans, some DFL members, the Jewish Community Relations Council, Rep. Angie Craig and Sen. Amy Klobuchar objected to the appearance. Omar's campaign defended the event by pointing to low early-voting numbers among people under 40, and the event has divided Minnesota Democrats days before Election Day.
