Minnesota fraud is a seemingly never-ending and endlessly entertaining story. The alternate media reports on the skyrocketing dollar total, now up to $9 billion, while the legacy media tries to explain why the fraud isn’t anywhere near $9 billion as if fraud totaling a mere few billion isn’t really a big deal. Simultaneously, Minnesota’s Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, who is running for the Senate, appears in a Hijab while claiming Somali fraudsters are responsible for everything good about Minnesota. And if that wasn’t bad enough, a downtown McDonald’s in Minneapolis has locked its doors during business hours and will only...

FBI Director Kash Patel recognized the ongoing fraud scandal unfolding in Minnesota involving childcare centers, adding that it has been part of a lengthy investigation and will remain a top priority. As Breitbart News reported, a video from YouTube journalist Nick Shirley went viral over the weekend after he confronted an employee at an alleged learning center in Minnesota that was receiving millions in aid despite showing no signs of operational activity. In a post on X, Kash Patel said the FBI has been investigating the situation. “The FBI is aware of recent social media reports in Minnesota. However, even...

The big question on everyone’s mind right now must be, “When will Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) face indictment for the fraud that didn’t merely take place on his watch, but was allegedly allowed to continue unchecked?" It’s a fair question to ask, given the circumstances. The political ground beneath Walz is looking increasingly shaky. Between mounting scrutiny and unresolved allegations, things are not breaking in his favor. As PJ Media previously reported, independent journalist Nick Shirley and his crew hit the streets, sniffing out over $110 million in fraud in a single day. They targeted outfits posing as child care...

The scandal involving billions of dollars of Somali fraud in Minnesota is growing exponentially. But if you were watching CNN or MS NOW, you would have no idea the story was exploding and possibly expanding into other states. Mediaite reports that those two alleged cable news sites haven’t mentioned the seismic Somali fraud scandal in more than a week. Here’s more. (READ) Western Lensman @WesternLensman REPORT: MSNOW and CNN have ignored the exploding Minnesota fraud scandal, not mentioning it a SINGLE TIME since December 18: "A review of MS NOW and CNN’s broadcasts since December 18 — when prosecutors claimed...

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz bragged about making it easier for people to get into the child care business during last year’s vice presidential debate with JD Vance, awkward resurfaced footage shows — as the state’s Somali immigrant community has been accused of bilking millions of dollars in aid meant for day care centers. “We have to make it easier for folks to be able to get into [the child care] business and then to make sure that folks are able to pay for that. We were able to do it in Minnesota,” Walz said on stage as he proposed a...

The Gateway Pundit reported on journalist Nick Shirley’s shocking report exposing millions of dollars of fraud involving Somali daycare centers in Minnesota. Rather than address the fleecing of taxpayers in his state, Governor Tim Walz attacked Shirley instead, calling him a “White supremacist” for daring to expose the fraud. Shirley shared clips of his investigation, including footage of the door being slammed in his face while he asked a Minnesota Childcare Center that claims to care for 102 children, which appeared empty. Shirley released the full 42-minute video of his investigation noting, “We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like...

Amid the growing Minnesota fraud scandal, a venture capital firm belonging to Rep. Ilhan Omar’s husband Tim Mynett has quietly deleted several key names from its website. Very suspiciously, these names were purged from the website just as several arrests were made in connection with the Minnesota welfare fraud scheme. Keep in mind that the COVID-era meals program that was ultimately used to defraud the taxpayer was Rep. Omar’s brainchild in the first place. However, none of the individuals whose names were scrubbed from the firm’s website have been arrested or accused of anything — at least, not at this...

Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator Kelly Loeffler revealed that the agency would be “cutting off” grants to Minnesota in response to ongoing reports of Somali fraud in the state. In a post on X, conservative activist Benny Johnson shared that Loeffler told him she would be “taking immediate action” after YouTuber Nick Shirley and his team exposed fraud in Minnesota and “uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day.” Johnson added that Loeffler said it was “due” to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) refusing “to enforce laws governing small businesses” and because of his “allowance and facilitation of fraud.” “SBA Administrator Kelly...
