NewsNation Reporter Finds “Assisted Living” Facility Funded by Americans Is Just a Single-Family Home — Owner Indicted in Feeding Our Future Still Raking in $49M from Minnesota
Gateway Pundit ^ | January 01, 2026 | Jim Hᴏft

Minnesota’s sprawling welfare-industrial complex is once again under the microscope after a stunning investigation by NewsNation revealed that so-called “assisted living” facilities funded with millions in taxpayer dollars are, in reality, nothing more than ordinary single-family homes.

According to reporting from Rich McHugh of NewsNation, Minnesota continues to shovel millions of Medicaid dollars to properties owned by a man already indicted in the state’s massive Feeding Our Future fraud scandal, despite overwhelming red flags and a growing list of exploited public programs.

The properties are owned by Gandi Mohamed, also known as Gandi Abdi Kediye, who was indicted in February 2024 on money laundering charges tied to the Feeding Our Future case. Prosecutors allege Mohamed helped launder approximately $1 million in fraudulent funds.

According to the DOJ:

Gandi Yusuf Mohamed, 43, Ikram Mohamed’s brother, was the owner of GAK Properties LLC and GIF Properties LLC, companies used to receive and launder the proceeds of the fraud scheme. Gandi Mohamed also submitted fraudulent meal counts and claims on behalf of his family’s companies. As alleged, between March 2021 and July 2022, Gandi Mohamed fraudulently received and laundered more than $1.1 million in Federal Child Nutrition Program funds. Gandi Mohamed is charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and money laundering.

Yet while awaiting trial, Mohamed’s limited liability company continues to benefit handsomely from the state.

His wife reportedly operates multiple “assisted living” facilities out of residential homes in the Minneapolis area.

Those facilities alone received more than $2.3 million in state payments last year.

Even more staggering: since 2016, Mohamed has been paid $49 million by the state’s Minnesota Department of Human Services, according to the Minnesota Reformer.

NewsNation visited three of the locations tied to Mohamed’s LLC. Each one appeared to be a standard single-family residence—not a medical or assisted living facility.

Staff at the homes claimed ignorance of Mohamed’s indictment and declined to explain how such operations qualified for massive Medicaid reimbursements.

I’m sorry, Keith Ellison should go to prison for allowing this to happen, but he won’t.

If I understood this right, this man was already indicted, but is still making money off this scam. I guess I don’t understand this at all. He should have been serving time before now, I would think.

What standards do assisted living centers have to have to be eligible for funding?

Are they inspected quarterly?

For a bunch of low IQ people, they were smart enough to figure out how to scam Uncle Sugar.

So easy a caveman can so it...

Not only that, but we need to have the ability to recover as much of the stolen wealth as possible. If I innocently go to a garage sale, and purchase what turns out to be stolen goods, sorry, I am on the hook to return it. Accordinly, all the property obtained through criminal fraud ought to be seized from private possession.

Anyone who thinks this bunch of sub 90 IQ savages from the worst country in Africa pulled off an $18,000,000,000 fraud for over 10 years without help from the inside is simply too stupid to have a serious conversation with.

Seems like if he was convicted, he should have been debarred, but maybe that’s a federal thing. I know of one place like that around where I live in Wisconsin, but as far as I know, there were disabled or elderly people living there. It seemed legit but I don’t know for sure.

I believe the actual average IQ of those people is sub-70.

I think a root cause analysis would reveal the word, “Obama”, as the instigator and facilitator of all of it.
