In the heart of Minneapolis, where progressive politics often masks a labyrinth of insider dealings and questionable alliances, a scandal of epic proportions has been simmering for years. The Feeding Our Future fraud case, widely regarded as one of the largest COVID-era scams in U.S. history, siphoned off an astonishing $250 million in federal funds meant to feed hungry children. Instead, the money lined the pockets of fraudsters, funding luxury cars, lavish homes, and overseas wire transfers. But as new revelations emerge, the spotlight turns to none other than Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, whose personal and professional connections raise serious questions about conflicts of interest, potential complicity, and why he’s so vehemently defending elements tied to this mess.
In Minneapolis, the story isn’t just about stolen taxpayer dollars; it’s about a mayor whose wife worked for the very lobbying firm that shielded the fraudsters, whose campaign coffers swelled with donations from indicted players, and whose appointees ended up in federal crosshairs. With the Trump administration now in power and calls for accountability echoing from Washington, it’s time to pull back the curtain on Frey’s entanglements. Let’s follow the money, the relationships, and the timeline.
The Feeding Our Future Scandal: A Primer on the Heist
Feeding Our Future was a Minnesota nonprofit founded in 2016 by Aimee Bock, ostensibly to distribute meals to children in need through federal child nutrition programs administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). During the COVID-19 pandemic, when oversight was relaxed to expedite aid, the organization exploded in size. By 2021, it claimed to be serving millions of meals at hundreds of sites across the state. But federal investigators allege it was all a sham: fake meal counts, shell companies, kickbacks, and money laundering on a massive scale.

“The connections deepen with Frey’s City Hall picks. Three of his appointees faced federal indictments in the scandal:
Abdi Nur Salah: A former senior policy aide to Frey, Salah was fired in March 2022 after the mayor learned of his involvement. Salah, who rose through the ranks from a council member’s staffer, pleaded guilty to wire fraud in 2024, admitting to stealing $3.4 million. Frey is even on the witness list for related trials.
Sharmarke Issa: Appointed by Frey to chair the Minneapolis Public Housing Authority in 2019 and reappointed in 2021, Issa pleaded guilty to wire fraud in 2024 for his role in the scheme. As housing chair, he had oversight over public funds—funds that intersected with the fraud’s tentacles.
Abdikadir Ainanshe Mohamud: Placed on the newly created Minneapolis Community Safety Workgroup, Mohamud was indicted alongside others in 2022.
These aren’t low-level hires; they’re strategic appointments in housing, policy, and public safety—areas ripe for influence peddling. Frey’s office claims he acted swiftly upon learning of issues, but how did these individuals slip through vetting? And why did his administration continue business as usual amid red flags?
A very good article. Click on the link.
“Frey’s 2021 mayoral reelection campaign tells another damning story. At least eight individuals named in the Feeding Our Future indictments donated the maximum allowable $1,000 each to his war chest. These weren’t small-time donors; they included key players in the scheme, such as those tied to Safari Restaurant, a south Minneapolis spot accused of being a fraud conduit. In a race where Frey faced progressive challengers pushing for police reform post-George Floyd, these contributions helped secure his victory.”
Although,
I would be cautious about ant posts by xxqqzz.
Wow, first I’ve heard scumbag Fry’s scumbag wife worked for the lobbying firm that shielded the fraudsters. The whole place place is filthy
The Democrat politicians who are guilty and have the most to lose, like their freedom, will always speak the loudest and blame others in order to redirect from their own guilt. Without question, that very scenario fits tightly with the immense amount of fraud and theft being uncovered by the Trump administration in the Democrat political machine across this country. It’s no wonder the US Treasury is $36 trillion in debt.
You asked “...how did these individuals slip through vetting? And why did his administration continue business as usual amid red flags?”
Did you forget your /sarc tag?
Pole hanging refers to a method of execution historically used in certain countries, particularly in Czechoslovakia and Hungary, as a variant of judicial hanging. It involved suspending a condemned person from a tall vertical pole (typically around 3 meters high) using a noose, with the person hoisted to the top via a chest sling and foot rope.Upon release, the victim would fall a short distance, resulting in strangulation rather than a neck fracture. This method was notably used after World War II to execute Nazi war criminals and collaborators, such as Kurt Duga and Hilda Helner, as a form of public justice and symbolic retribution.
Unlike the long-drop method used in Britain, pole hanging was often slow and painful, with executioners attempting to manually dislocate the neck, but success was inconsistent. The process was highly public, drawing large crowds and intended to serve as both punishment and deterrence.
I hope the feds audit his wife.
Along with the rest of the family.
Frey probably needs the money. After all, he is not getting financial support from his mommy and daddy like the mayor of Seattle.
How in the world did Hunter miss this opportunity for big fraud bucks.
That’s from the article, which you should read in its entirety.
Or the Clintons for that matter?!
Jake the Snake Frey needs his ass thrown in prison. He’s a punk like his superior, Tiny Timmy Tampon Walz.
I suspect that just scratches the surface of Frey’s fraud.
Thankfully he and Walz are getting a deep legal colonoscopy now.
May it be highly successful.
As always, wake me when any prominent politician faces any significant consequences.
Big time.
