Accountability NOW: Prosecute the Minnesota Fraudsters, their Funders & Organizers, and the Politicians Who were Complicit

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/f674a875-2e94-4f08-8a43-b3ac0068626d/transcript

Massive Fraud Allegations (WATCH NICK's VIDEO HERE!)
Minnesota has spent $18 billion on Medicaid over several years, with up to $9 billion allegedly lost to fraud.
Fraud reportedly involves fake daycare centers and autism centers receiving millions in state funds without providing services or having children present.
Example: Facilities licensed for dozens of children but found empty, with windows blacked out and doors locked.


Political Corruption
Democratic politicians, including Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, ignored or enabled the fraud.
Stolen funds were used to influence elections and fund campaigns.
We bring up Ilhan Omar and have questions about her financial gains.


Investigative Work by Nick Shirley
A 23-year-old YouTuber, Nick Shirley, conducted undercover investigations, visiting daycare and autism centers, documenting the absence of children, and exposing suspicious operations.
His video reportedly went viral, reaching over 90 million views.


Media Criticism
Strong criticism of mainstream (called “Corporate”) media for allegedly ignoring the story.
Praise for independent investigative journalism.


Security and Confrontations
Confrontations with individuals at the centers, some becoming hostile.
Police involvement when Shirley attempted to gather information at healthcare offices.


Financial Scale
Examples of payments: individual centers receiving $1–$3 million annually.
Autism-related Medicaid payments allegedly skyrocketed from $1.3 million in 2017 to $228 million in 2024.

Explosive Undercover Video of Massive Somali Fraud and Democrat Complicity & Corruption

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/182ca40f-7171-437a-a05b-b3ac006821ab/transcript

1. Welfare System Fraud and Structural Issues
Based on an op-ed by Phil Gramm and John Early in The Wall Street Journal titled “The Biggest Fraud in Welfare”.
Key points:

U.S. welfare spending has skyrocketed 765% since the mid-1970s, now totaling $1.4 trillion annually.
If distributed evenly among the 19.8 million families classified as poor, each would receive $71,000 per year.
The government fails to count non-cash benefits (Medicaid, housing subsidies, food stamps) as income, creating a distorted picture of poverty.
Example: A single parent earning $11,000 annually can receive benefits worth $53,128, bringing total resources to $64,128, well above the poverty threshold.
Criticism of the system: It traps people in dependency instead of promoting self-sufficiency, contrasting with Trump-era welfare reform that moved 7 million people off food stamps into the workforce.

2. Massive Fraud in Minnesota’s Medicaid and Welfare Programs
Federal prosecutors allege up to $9 billion in fraud since 2018, possibly 50% of the $18 billion spent on 14 programs.
Fraud described as “industrial scale”, involving fake companies and individuals exploiting housing and autism assistance programs.
Some funds allegedly funneled to Al Shabab, a Somali terrorist organization.
Criticism of Minnesota’s Democratic leadership for lack of oversight and alleged vote-buying incentives.
Prediction: Similar fraud likely exists in California, New York, and Illinois.
Media accused of downplaying the scandal; local CBS reports highlighted the severity.

3. Strong U.S. Economic Performance Under Trump
Latest GDP report shows 4.3% growth in Q3, the strongest in two years, beating expectations of 3.2%.
Growth driven by consumer spending, healthcare, tech, and AI-related investments.
Inflation reportedly down to 1.6%, signaling economic stability.
Commentary contrasts media narratives predicting economic collapse with reality of strong holiday spending and trade policy success.
Trump’s supply-side policies (tax cuts, deregulation) and trade strategies credited for economic boom.
