Farah had already been sentenced to 28 years in prison for helping steal tens of millions of dollars from a taxpayer-funded program intended to feed needy children during the COVID pandemic. But stealing from hungry...

Maritime commerce has become increasingly more dangerous lately, with attacks on cargo ships in the Black Sea, the Red Sea, and the Strait of Hormuz, among others. Now, the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean off the Horn of Africa have returned to the list, as Somali pirates take full advantage of the instability caused by the Iran war to get back to their predatory ways. At one point last week, six captured vessels were being held off the Puntland coast as the pirates demanded hefty ransoms. Two of the vessels were released on Saturday.” The Iran conflict left...

When you are passing judgments on individuals regarding their character, it is not right to judge them based on their immutable characteristics as part of a group. We judge individuals based on who they are and what they do. On the other hand, when you are evaluating a group, it's just as wrong to disaggregate it into individual atoms and claim that there are no group characteristics that are relevant to making a judgment. That's why it is simultaneously true that individuals who are part of some group may be good, and the group as a whole is still harmful....

BREAKING: Minnesota residents Shamso Ahmed Hassan and Hanaan Mursal Yusuf ARRESTED for $21 million Medicaid fraud scheme

Unlike many other European countries, Denmark has been pretty restrictive in admitting Muslims into their country. Consequently, these immigrant populations are quite low compared to places like France, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Also unlike other European countries, Denmark keeps meticulous statistics on the ethnicity of persons who commit serious crimes. These statistics show that disproportionate numbers of offenders are immigrants. In the category of attempted homicide, Somalis are 27 times as likely as Danes to be arrested for this crime, Moroccans and Palestinians are 20 times as likely, Iraqis are 13 times as likely, Pakistanis are 10 times as...

Denmark is one of the rare European countries to publish crime data by country of origin. Somalis top the list when it comes to rapes, fraud, forgeries and grievous assaults.

Lewiston is ground zero for the Somali Muslim presence in Maine. And it shows. The Lewiston Police Department has released surveillance footage of a gunman in Lewiston opening fire. The video is of the second of two shootings in four days near a mosque on Bartlett Street. Lewiston police say it’s an area with a high volume of shootings over the past year. What might be attracting these unknown shooters to the area? Besides the mosque? Several witnesses told police a young, black male across the street fired multiple rounds from a handgun toward the Maine Immigrant and Refugee Services...

Now that the FBI is busting fake Somali day cares in Minneapolis, Somali pirates are taking to the high seas back in their own country and hijacking ships, taking hostages and hoping Gov. Tim Walz shows up. Thus far the piracy has been mostly internal with a Pakistani crew, Indonesians and Syrians taken hostage. That also says something about which sailors and ships felt comfortable operating near Somalia. Thus far three ships have been hijacked in a week by the Somalis. Somali officials who have benefited from massive amounts of foreign aid are arguing for negotiations and claiming that they...

🚨 NOW: Federal agents are FLOODING the Quality Learing Center in Minneapolis as they conduct RAIDS at 20+ mostly Somali locations across the area Per DHS: "Homeland Security Investigations in cooperation with our law enforcement partners executed criminal search warrants in Minneapolis relating to the rampant fraud of US taxpayer dollars."

In Minnesota, the Somali fraudsters who have managed to have diverted to themselves billions of dollars through the state’s welfare system for services, from child care to hospice care and everything in between, never rendered, are outraged that any of the luxury goods they bought with that money should be taken away from them. When the government repo men appear, the Somalis fly into a fury. It’s amazing how much anger they manage to summon up. They feel genuinely put-upon, victimized by racists depriving them of their new possessions only because they are Somalis. Here are just five of those...

Washington Governor Bob Ferguson (D) stated Monday that the state government aims to “partner” with the anti-ICE groups illegally tracking and hounding federal law enforcement agents.

Ferguson held a press conference alongside Washington’s Attorney General Nick Brown (D.) to condemn ICE after two agitators in Minnesota were fatally shot by federal agents. Brown was widely criticized last month after he warned independent journalists to stop investigating alleged fraudulent...

A police officer shot a 16-year-old boy when he refused to drop the broomstick he was holding in Salt Lake City last night. The officer was responding to an unrelated call in the Utah capital at 8.15pm when his team spotted two teenagers arguing with a man, according to the Salt Lake Tribune.
