The Trump administration is cutting off all childcare payments to Minnesota and demanding a comprehensive audit of the state’s day care centers as a mushrooming billion-dollar fraud scandal engulfs the state’s human services department.
“We have frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota,” Deputy Health and Human Services Secretary Jim O’Neill wrote on X Tuesday afternoon, days after a viral video investigating alleged fraud at day care centers in the state drew national attention.
O’Neill said Minnesota has “funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to fraudulent daycares across Minnesota over the past decade,” and outlined three actions the department has taken in an attempt to cut off the flow of exploitable funds.
The first action will impose the requirement for “a receipt or photo evidence” for any payments made to states through the US Administration for Children & Families (ACF).
O’Neill said he has “demanded” Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz conduct a “comprehensive audit” of the centers highlighted.
“This includes attendance records, licenses, complaints, investigations, and inspections,” he writes.
He specifically cited YouTuber Nick Shirley’s video published on Friday, in which he visited day care centers across Minneapolis receiving millions in state funds that appeared to be closed or out of operation.
Third, HHS has launched a hotline and email address dedicated to reporting fraud at childcare.gov.

BETTER LOOK AT ALL STATES WITH SOMALIES.
ALL STATES !!
All SOMALIES !!!
A Seattle suburb has a huge Somali population also.
Is anyone even left in Somalia?
There ought to be a bounty pod for discovering fraud
Boarsberg. 3…2…..1
They don’t Jews love socialism
Yes, but he shouldn’t have to go through it in the first place.
Federal judge in three, two, one......
That would be on Jay Inslee. Ferguson only had year at the grift
Yes and no
Recall millions of unemployment dollars "lost" to Nigeria during Covid that the then AG Ferguson did not investigate nor prosecute.
Now ICE needs to nut up and go door to door rounding up Somalis as deporing them immediately.
It’s not in that article but the other states are Ohio, Pennsylvania and Washington. I wouldn’t be surprised to see California and other democrat states.
Every one of the Party of Death’s Skanky Pygmy Dipstick Judgettes that tries to “temporarily for now” interfere with this should be arrested, investigated, indicted and incarcerated for aiding and abetting Sammie scumbag thieves. Surely WE AMERICANS HAVE ONE FERAL JUDGEY ON OUR SIDE.
Totally agree. Trump keeps after what we all want. A regular republican president would not push it and not keep going, they’d just flap their gums like Turtle.
Hmmm...
Horse???
Barn door???
but the children.... What will happen to the children!
Everyone who lives in Minnesota and North Dakota (as I have) knows exactly who brought in the Somalis:
“The primary Lutheran organization involved in resettling and integrating Somali refugees in Minnesota (and to a lesser extent North Dakota) is Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota (LSS Minnesota), often working alongside Catholic Charities and other agencies as a key voluntary agency (VOLAG) in the federal refugee resettlement program.
LSS has played a central role since the early 1990s, when Somali refugees began arriving in significant numbers following Somalia’s civil war. They provide initial resettlement services (housing, employment assistance, case management, cultural orientation) and ongoing support for integration. In North Dakota, a separate but related entity, Lutheran Social Services of North Dakota (which closed its resettlement program around 2021, with services continuing under other providers like Global Refuge), similarly assisted Somali refugees, particularly in Fargo.
Exact numbers of Somali individuals specifically served by LSS are not publicly broken down in detail, as resettlement involves multiple agencies and much of Minnesota’s Somali population (estimated 80,000–100,000 today) grew through secondary migration (family reunification and relocations from other states) rather than direct initial resettlement. State data indicate about 24,000–26,000 Somali refugees were directly resettled in Minnesota overall since the 1990s, with LSS handling a substantial portion (often cited as one of the top agencies alongside Catholic Charities). LSS continues to serve refugees from various countries, including ongoing support for Somali families”
But you found some plausible Jews to blame! Good for you! As a Jew formerly from North Dakota, I can tell you that is a rare feat! There were about 30 families of us in NoDak, but LOTS of Somalis. Brought in by exactly the Lutherans and Catholics.
I stand by for your general denunciation of Lutherans and Catholics.
