"Minnesota is drowning in fraud”
Over the summer I wrote about the grand scale of the latest stage of Somali welfare fraud in Minnesota.
The $250 million ‘Feeding Our Future’ free food fraud in which Somali groups stole a quarter of a billion dollars while claiming to feed hundreds of thousands of children who never existed seemed like the biggest case of welfare fraud in Minnesota, but it may be just the beginning.
In 2019, Feeding Our Future distributed $3.4 million in taxpayer food aid funds to the non-profits it was sponsoring, In 2020, that shot up to $42 million and then up to $197 million in 2021.
EIDBI autism claims to Medicaid in Minnesota similarly shot up from $3 million in 2018 to $54 million in 2019, $77 million in 2020, $183 million in 2021, $279 million in 2022, $399 million in 2023, and nearing $400 million most of the way through 2024 for a total of over $1.4 billion.
How did autism claims rise from $3 million to $400 million a year in just 4 years?
The number of autism providers shot up 700% from 41 to 328 over 5 years. 1 in 16 Somali four-year-olds (6%) were supposedly suffering from autism leading to a mass demand for services.

Federal prosecutors on Thursday charged eight people in connection with what they called a “massive” fraud scheme in Minnesota’s Medicaid-funded housing stabilization program.
Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph Thompson said it was the first wave of cases and that his office was investigating hundreds of companies. He described fraud in the state as a widespread “crisis.”
“As many of you know, Minnesota is drowning in fraud,” he said at a news conference announcing the charges. “The level of fraud in these programs is staggering. Unfortunately, our system of ‘trust but verify’ no longer works. These programs have been abused over and over to the point where the fraud has overtaken the legitimate services.”
The individuals charged with wire fraud in four separate cases are accused of stealing federally funded health care benefits from the state intended for housing. They stole a total of around $10 million, prosecutors allege. That’s nearly four times the amount the state expected to spend on the program annually when it first launched.
The state initially expected the housing stabilization program to cost about $2.6 million a year, but last year it cost $105.4 million, according to DHS. The program has around 21,000 participants and more than 1,800 providers.
Gov. Tim Walz and other Democrats let this massive fraud go on as they catered to their Somali supporters. Over $1B is gone and we’re only scratching the surface of this piracy.
Another scathing expose of Tim Walz's Minnesota,, even as he announces that he wants a third term as Guvn'r.

Thanks for posting this. These are some of the same issues (e.g. fraud, corruption, crime, exploitation) that have held back Somalia from progressing in a modern world. Somalia has oil, natural gas, uranium, iron, bauxite, a long coastline with rich fisheries, etc., but people are poor and Somalia remains one of the poorest nations in the world.
Funny, but I never hear Omar critcizing Somalia as responsible for its own problems.
Priorities, priorities, priorities!
And to think, that over the last 7 years of MN fraud, with 70+ convictions, not a single MN government worker was punished for the wholesale fraud from MN state government programs.
They need a full cultural reset and a great deal of education. Until that happens they will always be spear chuckers.
A literal culture of piracy.
protected class, no doubt.Waltz, Ellison, Klobuchar and Omar leading the way. And in on it.
Funny, but I never hear Omar criticizing know-nothing
Somalia as responsible for its own dirt-poor problems.
And you never hear Omar rebuking thieving Minn Somalians cleaning
out govt programs for themselves.........(the truly needy got nothing).
The Somali thieves musta got a lottta “help” on how to tap into tax dollars at the federal level......
What does Omar know about that?
When a low trust society meets a high trust society, the high trust society is taken advantage of.
And this———Somalis cheating Somalis....
Nolosha Development Somali CEO Abdiwali Abdullahi facing accusations of misrepresenting the development’s status and the company’s ownership of the land, resulting in a judgment for consumer fraud.
The Somali fraud in housing refers to allegations against Nolosha Development, a company that allegedly scammed Somali immigrant families in Minnesota by collecting large down payments for a housing development that was never built, using false advertising and promises. The Minnesota Attorney General’s Office sued the company for consumer fraud, deceptive practices, and false advertising, with Nolosha Development CEO Abdiwali Abdullahi facing accusations of misrepresenting the development’s status and the company’s ownership of the land, resulting in a judgment for consumer fraud.
Nolosha Development and its Somali CEO, Abdiwali Abdullahi, lured potential buyers with promises of building new, high-end homes on a 37-acre parcel of land in Lakeville, Minnesota. The company also offered promises of interest-free halal loans, which were a key selling point for the Somali community, according to the Sahan Journal. Despite collecting significant deposits, often $25,000 per buyer, Nolosha Development did not own the land it planned to develop, and the construction of homes never started.
The Minnesota Attorney General’s Office estimates that Nolosha Development collected over $1 million from at least 160 homebuyers. The Attorney General’s Office filed a lawsuit against Nolosha Development and Abdiwali Abdullahi for consumer fraud, deceptive trade practices, and false advertising. In July 2025, the Attorney General’s Office secured a judgment against the company, according to the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office.
Nolosha Development is also under investigation by the FBI. The victims were primarily Somali immigrants who trusted the developer because he grew up in the same community, highlighting a misuse of trust. Many families, including the father and cousin of one victim, are still trying to recoup their money after being given the runaround by the company, notes Sahan Journal......... dedicated to reporting for immigrants and communities of color in Minnesota.
DOJ needs to prosecute Omar at once.
Get out of my country!
INDEED
Examples must be made about laws and often.
The $250 million Somali thievery—’Feeding Our Future’ free food fraud—seemed
like the biggest case of Somali fraud in Minnesota, but it may be just the beginning.”
Examples must be made about US laws........ and often.
