Whistleblower: Massive Welfare Fraud by Somali Migrants in Ohio
Breitbart ^ | December 12, 2025 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 12/12/2025 10:22:48 PM PST by Morgana

A whistleblower claims that the Somali migrant community in Ohio is also involved in the same sort of massive social services funding fraud being uncovered day-by-day in Minnesota.

Ohio attorney Mehek Cooke says that the same sort of theft of public funding seen in Minnesota has been occurring in the Buckeye State for more than a decade, Fox News reports.

Cooke also accuses Ohio doctors of “rubber stamping” the fraud by failing to do any due diligence on those who are filing for aid.

“They’re just rubberstamping a lot of these. And then that same individual, a week later, that’s supposed to be bedridden, is all over social media, whether they’re out dancing at a party or something like that. So, the symptoms aren’t really adding up at the end of the day,” Cooke says.

Cooke adds that the Somali scammers in Ohio are exploiting a loophole in the state’s Medicaid program that has doled out as much as $91,000 a year per individual, money that is supposed to be paying to care for elderly or infirm family members in the home. She says that Ohio’s system is the “easiest in the Midwest to game.”

Many blame the Somali fraud issue on the country’s flawed culture. “Amoral familism is a [Somali] cultural blueprint,” says Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who fled from her Somali father to live in Europe. “It assumes that… survival depends on extracting maximum benefit for one’s own family,” regardless of the damage to fellow citizens, she wrote in December.

Cooke also alleges that many of these doctors are getting kickbacks from the scammers.

Ohio and Maine now too?
I just figured Minnesota would be the one constant, now I’m wondering what’s behind the smearing of these hard-working, patriotic, humble, thrifty, scholarly additions to our society.

Somali “migrants” are one of the biggest abominations ever visited on this country.
Who in their right minds would import a bunch of thieves and grifters over 80% of whom who have children are on welfare, with the rest carrying out fraud on a massive scale to steal hundreds of millions of US tax payer dollars?

And that is the main question that everyone should be asking? Why? Why are we importing welfare people?

“many of these doctors are getting kickbacks from the scammers”
A swift, one hour trial. If evidence of this exists...hang them the same day.

Message: Massive Welfare Fraud by Somali Migrants in Ohio. Somalis stealing tax dollars—— funding frauds uncovered has been occurring in the Buckeye State for more than a decade, Fox News reports. Ohio doctors are “rubber stamping” fraud by failing to do due diligence on those who are filing for tax dollars. A bedridden claimant is seen out dancing or at a party. Doctors may be getting kickbacks from scammers.

Somali scammers in Ohio are exploiting a loophole in the state’s Medicaid program that doles out as much as $91,000 tax dollars a year per individual, that is earmarked for elderly or infirm family members in the home. Ohio’s system is the “easiest in the Midwest to game.”

Somali fraud is the Somali cultural blueprint. Their survival depends on extracting maximum US tax dollars regardless of the damage to taxpayers.

Wife worked for the state as a community nurse within the psyche field.

This was almost 20 years ago and Somalis were a large part of her “patients”

Housing , food, medical care all taken care of by taxpayers

As usual, Somalis stealing tax dollars (earmarked for elderly or infirm Ohio Americans).....
one of the easiest tax-supported systems the thieving Somali crooks can game.

So how many thieving Somalis are exploiting a loophole in Ohio’s
Medicaid that doles out some $91,000 tax dollars a year per claimant.


Every Somali that’s breathing.

I hope she has a good security detail.
I see multiple “Somali Stabbing Scenarios” in her future.
