Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz pushed back against the ever-growing fraud allegations levied against him in the disastrous aftermath of a viral video where an independent journalist cracked open a crucial part of the alleged Somali aid scheme.
A spokesperson for Walz, a Democrat who frequently provokes President Trump’s ire, addressed a bombshell video posted by conservative YouTuber Nick Shirley.
“The governor has worked for years to crack down on fraud and ask the state legislature for more authority to take aggressive action. He has strengthened oversight — including launching investigations into these specific facilities, one of which was already closed,” the spokesperson told Fox News.

There are 539 childcare centers in Washington state that list Somali as the primary language. Most don’t even give a street address.
I don’t know how many of these are submitting fraudulent claims for state grants and subsidies, but I have a strong hunch the number is not zero.

BTW, someone should take a good look at both NYS and NYC.
And I day both because it looks like Albany for some strange reason allows NYC to regulate itself when it comes to daycares...?!
That is pretty funny. The governor has worked for years...all while it took a 17 year old 1 hr or so to find fraud. lol
Back on MN...

🚨 BREAKING: Multiple corrupt Minnesota judges are under fire for dismissing a FLURRY of recent Somali fraud cases
- Judge Sarah West: Abdifatah Yusuf
- Judge Amber Brennan: Yusuf’s wife Lul Ahmed
- Judge Hilary Caligiuri: co-defendant Abdiweli Mohamud
MILLIONS of dollars stolen, but the conviction wasn’t allowed. Because the judges say so.
These judges won their recent races entirely with no opposition.

It would be fun if MN Republicans impeached Putz. Whistleblowers have accused Putz of a coverup. Clearly Putz has been criminally negligent.
He sits safely ensconced in a mansion that Minnesota taxpayers bought. Isn’t it ironic that he sees no fraud? He is the fraud.
Just like they needed more legislation to crack down on illegal immigration. Right out of the same ol playbook.

🚨BREAKING: The Small Business Administration Drops HAMMER on Somali Fraud, Cuts Off All Minnesota
SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler tells me she is “disgusted and sickened” by Nick Shirley’s expose of Somali small business fraud and is taking immediate action. SBA is cutting off and clawing back ALL SBA grants to Minnesota, effective immediately.
She says this is due to Tim Walz refusal to enforce laws governing small businesses and the Governors allowance and facilitation of fraud.
Loeffler tells me that SBA was able to uncover half a billion dollars of fraud “within days” of investigating Minnesota.
She notes the Trump administration will focus on the “state officials” who built an “industrial-scale crime ring to rip off hardworking Americans.”
“The scope of this international scam is still unknown, likely in the billions. Pending further review, SBA is freezing all grant funding to the state in order to stop the rampant waste of taxpayer dollars and uncover the full depth of fraud,” @SBA_Kelly tells me.
This is how Somali fraud is crippling opportunity for native, law abiding Minnesotans.

The solution to the problem is to form the right committee, and to raise taxes.

Minnesota’s economy doesn’t work without child care providers – so we’re giving them a raise.

And again we sit quietly by and watch, no arrests, no indictments, no prosecutions, no jail
Thanks. BUMP!
Nope. Just go to work, file your state taxes and stop noticing the gorilla on your back.
And Nick Shirley’s report on X...

Republicans have the Presidency, the Supreme Court, the House and the Senate. And yet…
We don’t have a Voter ID law.
Not a single crooked Democrat has been jailed, censured, impeached, or expelled.
Taxpayers are being defrauded by the billions.
And Republicans do NOTHING.
