A notorious Iran-linked hacker group was likely behind the recent attacks on dozens of water systems across the US — and the shadowy cyber-soldiers may not be done with their assault, experts warned. The self-proclaimed “Cyberav3ngers” group appeared to carry out the attacks which hit seven states in recent months, according to cybersecurity company Tenable, which told The Post the devious group began posting on the dark web about plans to hit the US within weeks of war breaking out with Iran. “We listened or observed them kind of declaring that they were going to start targeting US Water infrastructure...

CUETA — The people of Spain were reportedly horrified to see footage of tens of thousands of migrants illegally invading their nation, knowing full well that their country could soon become Minnesota. Thousands of migrants fled Morocco into nearby Ceuta, Spain, taking advantage of a perceived loophole that would prevent them from being deported without due process. Now Spain is already looking virtually indistinguishable from Minnesota, minus the bitter cold and 10,000 lakes. "I have the worst legislature," said Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. "Why is it so hard for us to enforce laws? God help us, we're Minnesota now!" According...

Iranian hackers are likely behind a widening cyberattack campaign against US water systems that has reached at least seven states, including more than 30 systems in Minnesota alone, and likely extends further, a cybersecurity expert told JNS on Friday. “The working assumption is that it is Iranian threat actors,” Annie Fixler, director of the cyber and technology innovation center at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told JNS. “The kind of behavior matches what we’ve seen out of Iran. The kind of targets and the systems that we’re talking about match.” Fixler cautioned that no actor has publicly claimed responsibility....

“Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) boasted that Minnesota liberals “defeated ICE’s racist terror campaign” in a cringey video trying to hop on a new TikTok-like trend — but the embattled lefty was swiftly roasted for her efforts. Plopped into a seat, “The Squad” member adjusted her blazer and fidgeted with a microphone as if she were about to be interviewed in the 10-second clip she shared Wednesday on Facebook. Omar, 43, took a deep breath as dramatic instrumental music played in the background. “Me preparing for the documentary on how we defeated ICE’s racist terror campaign in Minnesota,” she wrote...

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz shrugged off the fraud scandal in his state during an interview on Jimmy Kimmel’s show on Wednesday, and said it was an excuse by Republicans to demonize the immigrant community. “Mixed into all this is this — these multiple cases of benefits fraud that were happening,” Kimmel said. “Now, I want to ask you: Did it take an extraordinarily long time for you to know that that was happening? Is that just something that has been spread?” Walz said no and turned it back on President Donald Trump, saying, “It happens in other states. We were...

Rob Undersander is a millionaire. He also received taxpayer-funded food stamps. His story illustrates an absurd – and intentional – loophole in America’s welfare system that taxpayers need closed immediately. Rob applied for food stamps in 2016. A Minnesota resident, he clearly exceeded the program’s asset limits. But in the application process, he was deemed eligible to receive a brochure on domestic violence services, which under state policy allowed him to receive food stamps. Three weeks later, his first food-stamp benefits arrived in the mail. The taxpayer cash arrived like clockwork for the next 19 months, ultimately amounting to more...

Scenes from the Somali takeover of a mostly white Minnesota town. The AU Special Representative for Somalia and Head of AMISOM Ambassador Maman Sidikou in Minnesota, AMISOM Public Information, Creative Commons Zero, Public Domain Dedication Faribault, Minnesota, is a small city about an hour’s drive from Minneapolis. On paper it should have the smaller crime rate of the alphabetically similar Farmington which is nearly the same size and only a half hour away. Instead, Faribault has more than twice as much violent crime, aggravated assaults, burglaries and car thefts, 30% more rapes, and 8 times as many robberies. Farmington has...

While the original focus was on questions about the Iran war, at the tail end of an impromptu presser yesterday, President Trump was asked about Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and the status of U.S. national security. President Trump said he was very disappointed that President Sheinbaum refused his offer of assistance in eliminating the cartels in Mexico. Ultimately culminating in the statement, “the cartels are running Mexico.” Considering everything President Trump is doing to secure the Western Hemisphere objective, it must be very frustrating to eliminate various narcotraffickers, human smugglers and transnational agents of chaos, and yet still have one...

It is to laugh - the Democraps are taxing their businesses out of the state to continue The Somali Walz. 10:58 long

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., said Saturday that immigration enforcement "killed another Minnesota resident," calling it "an execution" and demanding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection immediately leave the state. Her comments followed the fatal shooting of a man in south Minneapolis during a federal immigration enforcement operation, according to the Department of Homeland Security and local officials. "An individual approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun," DHS reported in a statement.

Minnesota can’t seem to get out of the news. Once a placid backwater, the state has now become synonymous with bats**t crazy. ICE came to town, and it brought left-wingers, both native Minnesotans and paid professionals, out in force. Things went from bad to worse, and a leftist mob invaded a church on Sunday morning, disrupting services. The mob was led by, among others, former CNN talking head Don Lemon. The Department of Justice, outraged, is pursuing criminal charges against some of the ringleaders. Ice came to town in a more literal way, too: the high temperature today was -11,...

An F.B.I. agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot a 37-year-old woman in Minneapolis this month has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter. The agent, Tracee Mergen, left her job as a supervisor in the F.B.I.’s Minneapolis field office after bureau leadership in Washington pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the immigration officer, Jonathan Ross, according to one of the people. Such inquiries are a common investigative step in similar shootings.

A Minnesota woman convicted in one of the state’s largest fraud schemes alleged in a jailhouse interview that Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison were aware of widespread fraud well before federal prosecutors stepped in. Aimee Bock, the former head of the nonprofit Feeding Our Future, spoke to Fox News from Sherburne County Jail in Minnesota, claiming state officials continued approving and paying claims even after concerns were raised about potential fraud. Bock alleged the state approved program sponsors and was responsible for monitoring claims, but officials repeatedly failed to investigate or stop suspicious companies after she flagged...

Wow, what a photo... The woman who allegedly organized storming a church in Minneapolis, Nekima Armstrong, has been arrested and perp walked. If you are barging into churches screaming at people, you're not a good person.

Liberal white woman in Minneapolis cries hysterically as ICE conducts a search for two child rapists in her neighborhood.

I just learned this today. Not to be outdone - Minneapolis has Bosaso, Somalia as one of their sister cities.
