Since the Minnesota Department of Health and Human Services (DHS) fully-staffed their new child care fraud investigative unit in the spring of 2014, theyve worked with the FBI to shutter daycare centers around the state. Of the cases that have hit the news since then, all have involved Somali-run businesses.
Khadra Abdisafad Hirsi, 47, was the director and co-owner of Ace Daycare Center in Eden Prairie. In February, Hirsi pleaded guilty to knowingly submitting fraudulent claims to the state of Minnesotas Child Care Assistance Program. From November of 2011-May of 2013, Hrisi inflated the number of children using her daycares services and fraudulently obtained $300,000 in payments from the state of Minnesota and the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services. Earlier this month Hirsi was sentenced to one year and one day in federal prison and ordered to pay $300,000 in restitution.
Hirsi, who also goes by the name of Khadra Duale, was employed by the City of Eden Prairie as a part-time community services technician, also known as the immigrant liaison, from October 2003-September 2011, she was also part-time staff at the Eden Prairie community center. Hirsi was paid $284,944 in salary and $35,806 in health and dental benefits by the city during that time. She co-owned the Ace Daycare in Eden Prairie with her husband Mohamed F. Arab, although there were no charges against him. The Eden Prairie news called Hirsi and her husband leaders in the Somali community in a 2009 video interview featuring the couple. They filed for bankruptcy this summer according to public records.
The Ace Daycare building was leased to to Hirsi by the city of Eden Prairie starting in September 2010, while she was still working for the city. The lease was transferred in October of 2013 to Roda Farrah Moahmed, owner of Light House Daycare. In March of 2015, the city renewed the lease to Lighthouse which will run through October 2020. Lighthouse is licensed with the state of Minnesota, and was fined $400 in March of this year by the state for failing to submit background studies for multiple staff members
Deqo daycare center, which had three locations in Apple Valley, St. Paul, and Minneapolis was shut down in 2013 due to licensing violations and prosecutors charged husband and wife Ahmed Aden Mohamed and Yasmin Abdulle Ali for bilking the state out of nearly $3.7 million, $3.1 million of which was collected from April 2012-January 2013. The duo had recruited more than 100 parents to enroll their own children in the program.
Salama Child Care Center in Minneapolis was raided in May of this year by the FBI and state agents. Salama is run by Ardo Diriye whose daughter Farah Adid is the Director of Operations and is also licensed to provide standardized day care and preschool curriculum. Per KSTP News, the search warrant indicated that there was a large discrepancy between the number of children attending and the number receiving state funds. The investigation is ongoing and includes suspicion of wire fraud, aggravated identity theft and theft of public money.
Yasmin Muhina Salim, owner of Kind Heart Day Care Center in Mankato, was arrested in June of 2014 for defrauding the state for $12,000 over a three month period.
DHSs Office of the Inspector Generals (OIG) report for 2014 stated that The OIG is seriously concerned about a pattern of child care fraud activities that involves deception and exploitation. It begins with recruiting parents as child care center employees with the condition that they enroll their children in a child care assistance program (CCAP) to ensure public funds revenue for the business; the scheme ends with exploiting four sets of victims: the children, parents, those on the Child Care Assistance Program waiting list and taxpayers.
The prevalence of Somali-run daycare providers being found guilty of fraud by the new investigative unit may be a coincidence. Ongoing investigations by the child care investigative unit are not public information. The $4 million + in fraud thats been discovered so far represents just 1% of the estimated $418 million in child care payments made by the state in 2014-2015.
So, all these ‘refugees’ who are convicted should be sent back to skinnyland.
“Taqqiya” (lying to infidels) is a legal practice among the Muslim invaders according to their Sharia law.
Why are Muslim Somalis in Minnesota? And now that they are there, what is going to be done to integrate them as useful citizens.
What if they RESIST all attempts at assimilation? What then?
ping
And in Minnesota, of all places.
A Lutheran charity imported a wad of them. There is a huge Liberian community there, too.
We have a Somali family living near us who left Islam and became Christian and they had to flee Minneapolis because they would’ve been murdered if the Muslim Somalis found out about them. I hear there’s a LOT of Muslim Somalis there.
I’m guessing they’re not there for the beer.

The should have never become Americas problem. Never.
Though I was born in Minnesota I only returned for the first time in 65 years this last Spring.
Went to the famous Mall of America and couldn’t believe the number of veiled women there.
What the heck is going on with Minnesota ?
I noticed they vote like they’re from San Francisco but my question is why ?
How could the decedent’s of Vikings and hard headed Germans get so mixed up ....
Riiiiight. Because it's not like the convicted, corrupt immigrant liaison EVER talked to anybody else in the Somali community about the sweet racket she had going. That would never happen.
Check out the crime rates where the Somalis were settled, if you like Tums.
America should always be a haven for people fleeing tyranny.
The problem is that we’ve become a destination for people looking to create tyranny.
Yea......you and I and maybe three other “Americans” know that. I’ve lived in Muslim countries; lying, cheating and stealing from the infidels is sport with the Muzzies. Ripping off the infidel at every turn is like a badge of honor. Amongst themselves, they brag about it.
That’s why my reaction to this was outrageous hilarity! Stupid Liberal Democrats that run these programs are shocked, shocked, I say at the fact that their lovely puppets would turn on them and rip them off! “Oh, my, there must be some profound misunderstanding.......it must be OUR fault!” Wailing and nashing of teeth.
I live for the day when there’s a report that a group of these rabid Muzzies show up at an American Gay Pride parade and stone some half naked Wiccan Lesbian Democrats half to death!
Somali-run daycare fraud?
Next it will be the Kenya bank fraud.
Minnesota already has the democrat light rail and bike path fraud going on.
The Muslims latest sport is tossing homosexuals and lesbians to their deaths from rooftops and then posting the video on Twitter.
Stoning might actually be merciful in comparison.
Obama’s hand-picked henchman, Leon Rodriguez at the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) agency, is rubber-stamping felons, criminals, and diseased illegals into the country.
Rodriguez also oversees the infamous EB-5 visa program. Under Obama/Rodrigues’ purview-—EB-5’s are said to involve major threats to US national security:
NEED TO KNOW——ARE OBAMA/RODRIGUES/ICE’S SALDANA SELLING US CITIZENSHIP TO:
<><> (a) MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS,
<><>(b) ISIS TERRORISTS,
<><> (c) FOREIGNERS SEEKING THE OVERTHROW OF THE US GOVT.
Rodriguez’s confirmation hearings revealed he was a board member of Casa Maryland-—a Third World pressure group pushing for unlimited immigration on behalf of foreign governments. Rodrigues also has connections to foreign pressure groups across the nation.
REFERENCE Circa 2012, Sen Charles Grassley (Repub-Iowa) exposed the DHS-USCIS visa program—Sen Grassley said ICE identified key vulnerabilities in EB-5 visas:
1) Export of sensitive technology/economic espionage.
2) Use by foreign government agents/espionage.
3) Use by terrorists.
4) Investment fraud by regional center.
5) Investment fraud by investors.
6) Fraud conspiracies by investors and regional center.
7) Illicit finance/money laundering.
HERE’S HOW OBAMA GAVE RODRIGUES (AND ICE’S SALDANA) UNCHECKED POWER OVER US CITIZENS: Obama’s amnesty memos signed aboard AF-ONE last Nov. The memos “delegate” to federal agencies, and gave presidential orders to come up with “plans” (that advance the conspiracy to overthrow the US govt).
Saldana and Rodrigues’ federal agencies then “invent” Committees to do this. Then “Administrative Rules,” after a comment period, are published in the “Code of Federal Regulations,” which magically turns them into law........ using federal fairy dust.
So obamba is shielded from responsibility-—he doesn’t have to take the hit. Behind closed doors, he tells Saldana and Rodrigues what he wants.....and faster than you can say “the combo plate w/ extra hot sauce”.....the overthrow of the US govt commences.
THE “DELEGATION” HORROR STORY—A Federal agency MO since 1946. It’s down to a science: (1) publish a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), (2) make the comment period really short, (3) stonewall any negative comments, and, (4) publish the rule, which (5) NOW has the force of US law.
No Congressman was ever involved, and Obamba doesn’t leave his DNA on it. “Delegation” is ominous for liberty-—centers on the writing of administrative law by nefarious types like Saldana and Rodrigues at these federal agencies.
It is patently un-Constitutional (hat tip to FReeper Regulator).
We get lots of useless immigrants and refugees and the Somalis top the list. Muslim and backward.Somalis get here as refugees so they are allowed to get on a panoply of welfare programs right away and they do exactly this.
American blacks don’t get along with them at all.
