It has also been revealed that the refugee has been charged with a felony. Iman Osman resigned from the Lewiston City Council after it was revealed by NewsNation that his organization, the Lewiston Auburn Youth Network, received $65,000 from the fund established after the shooting.

The Somali-dominated Democratic political machine in Minnesota successfully silenced hundreds of government experts who tracked the huge flow of taxpayer funds through Somali-run businesses, a top Minnesota Republican told a House hearing on Wednesday. Up to 1,000 government auditors, accountants, and program managers were silenced by Democratic threats, Minnesota House Rep. Marion Rarick told a House hearing: The most severe ones was that they would be fired with cause so they couldn’t have unemployment insurance, that they would be blacklisted from all state agencies… [including] Hennepin County, Ramsey County. As you know, those are Democrat-run. Many government experts, non-government professionals,...

Comer's hearing on Somali fraud got sidelined in the media because of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis. Brandon Gill has some very interesting statistics about Somalis and welfare payments to them.

Elon Musk, the visionary former head of DOGE, amplified a brave citizen journalist’s exposé on rampant fraud in Minnesota’s Somali community under Tim Walz’s lax oversight. Young conservative Nick Shirley documented empty daycares and shell companies siphoning billions in taxpayer funds for housing, food, and vehicles. For context, most estimates place the total amount of fraud at $80-100 billion statewide, tied to scandals like Feeding Our Future. Building on this point, Musk declared that fraud in California, New York, and Illinois is far worse and estimated nationwide waste at ~10% of the federal budget. Starting the interaction, one of the...

At Pioneer Courthouse Square in Portland, Oregon, tens of thousands of people crowded around a massive Douglas fir tree decked with lights. Waiting for the carnage to begin was Mohamed Osman Mohamud, a Somali ‘child’ refugee, who was dreaming of killing them all. In 2010, Mohamud had urged a friend of his traveling to Mecca to pray “that I will be a martyr in the highest chambers of paradise.” He planned to attack Americans “in their own element with their families celebrating the holidays.” And Christmas was the perfect time of the year to do it. While fathers lifted up...

I suspect that Somalis around the country – especially, but not exclusively, in Minneapolis – wish about now that they had spent more time studying the wit and wisdom of Gertrude Stein. Stein, had she lived in our own day, might well have become commissioner of New York City’s Fire Department. She had the one qualification that Zohran Mamdani seems to deem essential to the post. Sadly, that was not to be. But there is no denying that, on certain matters, Stein was a font of practical wisdom that remains as pertinent today as it was when she was pontificating...

Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.), failed to pay its fair share of taxes in 2021, according to a tax lien obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

However, the center’s street address on the transom beneath the sign was still misspelled as “Nicolet” instead of “Nicollet.” Manager Ibrahim Ali told The Post Monday that the center’s graphic designer was to blame for the typo, and that it...
