A recent video by conservative YouTuber Nick Shirley alleged nearly a dozen day care centers in Minnesota that are receiving public funds are not actually providing any service. After the video went viral, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced a "massive investigation on childcare and other rampant fraud" in the state.
CBS News conducted its own analysis of nearly a dozen day care centers mentioned by Shirley: all but two have active licenses, according to state records, and all active locations were visited by state regulators within the last six months. CBS News' review also found dozens of citations related to safety, cleanliness, equipment, and staff training, among other violations, but there was no recorded evidence of fraud.

Said the same people who told you that Joe Biden was sharp as a tack.
Citizens, ignore the evidence of your eyes and trust the State! The State inspectors find no evidence of crime! The State organs of information only report from reliable official channeles.
Nuke it from orbit.
It’s the only way to be sure...
and all active locations were visited by state regulators? Visited to pick up their paychecks?
You mean the same state “inspectors “ who were taking payoffs
Well done CBS. No demonrat fraud and grift goes investigated and reported
Now back to our normally scheduled broadcast “Trump is scum”
Side note, CBS investigated Al Capone and he said he did nothing wrong, case closed Trump sucks😂
But but but what about Epstein 😎
Good one!
But no records, interviews, or security videos with kids?
“citations related to safety, cleanliness, equipment, and staff training, among other violations”
They’re government workers, sent to evaluate the above. I wouldn’t expect them to extend their efforts to anything more. Does anyone really think they’d “rock the boat” if they suspected something and possibly lose their cushy government job?
That this reporting mixes in “no evidence of fraud” is completely dishonest. It implies the inspections would even attempt to look for this.
CBS did not visit the locations. They merely reviewed the state’s files.
diversity has consequences. Almost all of which are bad. For decades, even ‘conservatives’ have chastised americans as a bunch of ‘racists’ and xenophobes and isolationists if they don’t fully support the mass importation of millions of third world non-Christians who hate us.
“They just have to listen to Rush and Mark Levin and then they’ll be conservatives too!!!”
Just more idiotic propaganda from the satanic globalist elites who seek to eradicate Christianity, Western Civilization, national borders, and the white race.
Diversity is an epic fail. Or a massive success if you’re a satanic neoCON one-worlder.
As I watched the Shirly saga unfold.
There was an older, white haired, man who actually has been visiting the fake day care’s for some time. I think that he uncovered the massive hoax and advised Shirly who followed up and showed it to the world.
Here are the "journalists" at CBS waiting to be fed "investigative journalism". (Yes, it's a mockingbird)
Minnesota investigated itself and gave itself a clean bill of health. I’m so relieved.
“CBS did not visit the locations. They merely reviewed the state’s files.”
That is like visiting Al Capone’s office to review the books and records.
Lol.
They didn’t actually visit even one of them.
——They didn’t actually visit even one of them.——
The researcher obtained and the carefully reviewed all the paperwork. It never occurred to the researcher that the daycare operation was merely an address and sign.

You are correct. His name was Dave.
I suspect Dave was the person who did all of the investigative work beforehand, such as getting copies of the govt documents showing the money given to these fraud daycares.
