Quote: JUST IN: Citizen journalists are now on PRIME TIME mainstream news for their efforts in exposing Somali fraud, this scandal is NOT going anywhere

"Captain NICK SHIRLEY found the map. And now, other independent journalists are following the clues. It's taking them coast to coast!"

CAM HIGBY: "Can I get an application for my son?"

Somalis: "NO, NO, WHY DID YOU OPEN THE DOOR?!" *Slams shut*

Trump admin freezes $10 BILLION in childcare funds to 5 Dem-led states over fraud concerns


Quote:The Trump administration is set to freeze $10 billion in funding in childcare subsidies that have been going to five Democrat-led states in the US, including Minnesota, New York, California, Illinois and Colorado. The move follows an explosive report from independent journalist Nick Shirley, who alleged that millions of dollars have been funneled to Somali-run daycare centers in Minnesota.

Around $7 billion in funding will be frozen that has been flowing through the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, as well as $2.4 billion going to the Child Care Development Fund. Both programs are meant to assist families with daycare and related expenses. Additionally, $870 million in social service grants will be paused.


The freeze builds on the move from the administration to pause $185 million in annual funds going to Minnesota for day care centers. Authorities have said that there are over a dozen welfare fraud schemes in the state that have led to billions of dollars in fraud. Since Shirley's explosive report, others have identified potential daycare fraud taking place in other Democrat-led states. Although the New York Times claimed that there was "no evidence" to suggest widespread fraud in other states, California has seen similar fraud prosecutions like in Minnesota, per the DOJ.

Six years ago, the HHS Office of Inspector General also found that New York City also improperly billed the federal government over $24.7 million in childcare funds.


Andrew Nixon, a spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), said, “Democrat-led states and governors have been complicit in allowing massive amounts of fraud to occur under their watch. Under the Trump administration, we are ensuring that federal taxpayer dollars are being used for legitimate purposes."

Senator Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY) reacted to the Trump administration's move to cut the funding amid the fraud allegations. “This has nothing to do with fraud and everything to do with political retribution that punishes poor children in need of assistance. I demand that President Trump unfreeze this funding and stop this brazen attack on our children," she said.


In addition to the fraud allegations in Minnesota from Shirley, federal prosecutors have gotten at least 60 convictions in the sprawling fraud case related to the "Funding Our Futures" nonprofit in Minnesota. Several of the daycares that were featured in Shirley's video were also "meal sites" for Feeding Our Future.

Quote: HOLY CRAP. Sec. Scott Bessent just confirmed up to $600 BILLION of annual fraud with taxpayer dollars, nearly 10% of spending

Elon Musk called it!

END ALL FRAUD.

"We are going to hold people accountable. We're going to press this to the full extent possible...American taxpayers, for American families, the GAO, the General Accounting Office, believes that there is somewhere between $300B- $600B of annual fraud, roughly 10% of government spending, that disappears due to fraud."

"If we can recapture that, that is 1% to 2% of GDP!"

Five More Somalis Plead Guilty in $14.6 Million Minneapolis Feeding Our Future Fraud Case


Quote:Five additional defendants, all Somali, have pleaded guilty to wire fraud in one of the largest pandemic fraud cases in U.S. history, the Minneapolis Feeding Our Future scandal that stole hundreds of millions of dollars meant for hungry children during COVID.
Ikram Yusuf Mohamed, 42, her husband Shakur Abdinur Abdisalam, 46, her sister Aisha Hassan Hussein, 29, Sahra Sharif Osman, 43, and her mother Fadumo Mohamed Yusuf, 59, each entered guilty pleas this week, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

The group ran fake food distribution sites under the Feeding Our Future nonprofit umbrella and submitted phony claims for hundreds of thousands to over a million meals that were never served.

They used fake attendance rosters, inflated invoices through a related company, and paid kickbacks to cover their tracks.

Prosecutors say the five stole and laundered a total of $14.6 million in federal Child Nutrition Program funds, money that was supposed to feed kids during COVID but instead funded personal luxuries like rent, furniture, vacations, dining out, and DoorDash orders.

Each defendant’s company received more than $1 million in taxpayer money.

Ikram Yusuf Mohamed opened multiple sites that pulled in over $6.9 million, hid her role by using family names, created Star Distribution LLC for fake invoices ($4.9 million direct and $1.4 million more), and demanded over $1.3 million in kickbacks.

Shakur Abdinur Abdisalam ran Inspiring Youth & Outreach LLC, falsely claimed over 1 million meals, received $1.5 million, and paid a $21,000 kickback.

Aisha Hassan Hussein ran United Youth of MPLS LLC, claimed 1.3 millio
n meals, received $2.2 million, and paid a $166,000 kickback.

Sahra Sharif Osman ran Youth International Club LLC, claimed nearly 700,000 meals, received $1.4 million, and paid a $7,500 kickback.

Fadumo Mohamed Yusuf ran Active Mind’s Youth LLC, claimed over 500,000 meals, received $1 million, and paid a $38,500 kickback.


All five pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Nancy E. Brasel.

Each faces up to 20 years in prison.

“I am proud of our team of prosecutors, federal agents, and law enforcement partners who continue to expose the rampant fraud in Minnesota,” U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen said in a press release about the pleas.

This brings the total convictions in the Feeding Our Future scheme to 63 out of 79 charged.

The overall scandal is estimated to have cost more than $250 million in stolen funds nationwide.

The vast majority of defendants charged in the Feeding Our Future case, and in related welfare fraud probes, are Somali.

Minnesota is home to the largest Somali population in the United States, and the scandal has repeatedly exposed fraud networks operating within that state.

The case gained fresh national momentum thanks to the independent investigation by conservative YouTuber Nick Shirley.

Shirley’s explosive viral video in December documented apparently empty Somali-run daycare centers across Minnesota that were still collecting millions in federal funds.

Several of the daycares featured in Shirley’s video had directly received Feeding Our Future meal reimbursements totaling millions. His reporting helped trigger broader federal probes, congressional testimony, and the Trump administration’s crackdown on fraud and waste in the state.

The scandal also has direct political ties to Rep. Ilhan Omar.

Omar, who is Somali and represents Minnesota’s heavily Somali 5th District, co-sponsored the 2020 MEALS Act, which dramatically expanded and loosened oversight of the exact child nutrition programs exploited in the Feeding Our Future scheme.

Her campaign later received thousands of dollars in donations from individuals who were subsequently charged with fraud. She gave the money to charity after the scandal broke.

Additionally, Omar held events and appeared in promotional materials at Safari Restaurant, owned by convicted Feeding Our Future fraudster Salim Said, who used stolen funds for a $2 million mansion and luxury shopping sprees.

One of Omar’s former campaign staffers, Guhaad Hashi Said, also pleaded guilty to running a fake food site in the scheme.
