Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison is facing new scrutiny over a 2021 audio recording of him meeting with members of the Somali community who would soon be convicted of defrauding millions of dollars in taxpayer money.

In the recording, now obtained by Fox News, the would-be fraudsters can be heard asking Ellison to help them secure more funding, before the conversation then turns to campaign donations.

"The only way that we can protect what we have is by inserting ourselves into the political arena. Putting our votes where it needs to be. But most importantly, putting our dollars in the right place. And supporting candidates that will fight to protect our interests," one of the Somalian community members says in the recording.

"That's right," Ellison responds.

Sounds like bribery to me. The question to ask though - is it going to be the same old same old bullsh**? NOTHING happens?

Apparently it's OK to raid a former Presidents residence, charge him with 90 counts of violating things that are 100% legal, fining him half a billion dollars over utter BS, finding him liable for sexual assault without one iota of evidence but GOD forbid any freakin' democrat should get so much as a parking ticket.

Here we are a year later, the evidence is overwhelming that the democrat party conspired to remove a sitting POTUS by hatching a hoax that he conspired with the Russians to steal the 2016 election and not a single ONE of them have been indicted for it!

New Mexico admires Minnesota greatly. On the list of corrupt states New Mexico is now only number 2 and no longer number 1.

However, it appears that California, Oregon and Washington state may be coming up from behind hard and fast to claim the title of most corrupt. My money is betting on California for total corrupt dollars but corrupt dollars per capita it would appear that Minnesota has a firm grip on first place.

Minnesota didn’t used to be particularly corrupt. Traditionally NJ, MA, LA, AR, MD, IL are a few of the worst. However, these Somalis have brought 3rd world corruption to MN.

Ellison is a Muslim, y’all. He is the head muzzie in charge of “legal” protection in that state for all of Islamofascists. Providing cover for massive illegality and no doubt taking his cut from his Somali bros! We should start again calling them what they are— skinnies (term from the invasion back when of Somalia, and the leader Rush called “SkyHook!”. Said invasion did not stop the decades of piracy of commercial vessels for ransom).

To cheer all here up- a scene from Sicario Day of the Soldado— engenders hope such pressure could have been applied at some point, or in the future. Sort of like the Houthis getting fried:

Yeah, Ellison was black Catholic, but found Islam.

There are Gulenists up there too...

One of these charter schools – Tarek ibn Zayed Academy (TiZA) in Minnesota – is so radically Islamic and subversive in nature that the Minnesota Department of Education issued two citations against it and the American Civil Liberties Union is suing it. Dozens of his universities, including the Faith University in Istabul, train young men to become lawyers, accountants, and political leaders so that they can take an active part in the restoration of the Ottoman Empire and the Islamization of the Western World. He also allegedly operates compounds to train jihadis in the tactics of guerilla warfare....

Ever notice the African immigrants (horrible drivers) go around with “Student Driver” signs on the back of their car more than a year after getting their license.
