They couldn’t have done this without collision and cooperation in Washington.

The criminality has to be wide and deep.

even in spendthrift Washington where the loss of a hundred million dollars is just a rounding error the flight of eight or nine billion dollars flying off into one relatively small African migrant ghetto would be a noticable anomaluy.

I don't know if anyone here has noticed, but Minnesota got rid of their
farmer and indian flag, and replaced it with a knockoff of the Somali flag.

Seriously.

Nice work, Tampon Tim. I can’t imagine the magnitude of things you could have done if you had been elevated from a Governor to be the VP.

“nearly equivalent to the entire economy of Somalia”

This strange statement has been repeated by several news sources the past few days.

Several look-ups gives the Somalia economy and GPD as remittances and foreign aid.

The remittances would be the state of Minnesota.

“It also accounts for roughly half of the $18 billion in total federal funds provided to the Minnesota-run services since 2018,..”

And yet Dems insist there is not a gov’t spending problem.

Think of all the homes that money could build to house California’s homeless. Now think of the tax dollars a local government could gain from those 5 houses.

I saw those thousand of Minniesomalians marching for “solidarity” today. It looks like the RAT bass turds intend to be united when their butts are hauled off to prison for stealing that NINE BILLION AMERICAN TAXPAYER DOLLARS AND GIVING IT TO THE UNCIVLIZED, SUBHUMAN, SLOBS FROM AFRIKA. If I were one of those scrotums, I would have been out marching today too. It was a good time for the scumbags to pick and get acquainted with their new cellmates.

First Assistant US Atty Joe Thompson said “What we see in Minnesota is not
a handful of bad actors committing crimes. It’s staggering, industrial-scale fraud.
<><>“Every day, we look under a rock and find a new $50 million fraud scheme.”
<><>dozens from Minnesota’s Somali community colluded and conspired
<><>the thieving Somalis set up phony businesses and non-profits
<><>they falsified claims to provide faked-up housing, food or healthcare assistance
<><>they billed tax-funded state programs for non-existent services.

The fraud was so enormous it went beyond the usual over-billing fraud tactics; the thieves set up entire operations — sometimes coming from out of state — to get in on the gold-rush of fraud.

Cut off all Fed funds to MN until $9B + is returned to treasury. THAT should do nicely. Let the libs suffer what they voted for. Not 1 penny should flow into MN and anything out of it should be garnished.
