Bring in More Prosecutors: Finally Ending Minnesota’s ‘Never-Ending’ Somali Fraud Schemes Requires Reinforcements

Nick Shirley’s video tour of 10 Somali daycare sites in the Twin Cities has drawn attention yet again to the massive public programs fraud committed by an almost exclusive cast of Somali Minnesotans. Shirley may have made some mistakes, but he seems to be on to something.

Shirley’s video raises an alarm about the administration of the Child Care Assistance Program by Minnesota’s Department of Human Services. In 2019, a devastating report by Minnesota’s nonpartisan Office of Legislative Auditor investigated a whistleblower’s claim that the program was riddled with fraud to the tune of $100 million. Legislative Auditor James Nobles limited his findings of fraud to amounts established in criminal convictions—$5 to $6 million at the time. However, Nobles called out the program for lax oversight and laughably inadequate controls. As he stated in a column last week, the department’s permissive approach “made it easy for fraudsters to steal.”

Muslim who drowned daughter in a swamp because her ‘Western behaviour’ shamed the family is found guilty of honour killing in Holland

A fugitive father who tied up and drowned his daughter in an honour killing that shocked the Netherlands has been sentenced to 30 years in jail.

Khaled al Najjar, 53, skipped the country hours after the body of his daughter Ryan, 18, was found bound and gagged in a swamp at an isolated nature reserve and is now hiding in Syria.

His two sons Mohamed, 23, and Muhanad, 25, were also found guilty and given 20 years each but only the eldest was in court for the verdict.

When freedom is more valued in the dictatorial East than in the relativistic West

If on September 11, 2001, someone had told us that one day New York would have a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated mayor, that he would swear his oath on the Qur’an, that as his first act he would repeal the fight against antisemitism and appoint as his chief counsel the lawyer for al‑Qaeda terrorists (including the brother of one of the hijackers who crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon), who would have believed it?

It is early January, 2026, and the world, in its eternal comedy of misunderstandings, is already offering a spectacle that not even the most cynical observer could invent

Tim Walz, Democrats’ 2024 VP candidate, won’t run for a third term as Minnesota governor

ST PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Democrats’ 2024 candidate for vice president, is ending his bid for a third term as governor less than four months after launching a reelection campaign.

Walz said in a statement Monday that he believes he would have won another term but decided “that I can’t give a political campaign my all” after what he described as an “extraordinarily difficult year for our state.”

The Somali fraud scandal is a turning point

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 in Paris a century ago. It is important, Stein warned those aspiring to be part of the avant garde, “to know how far to go when going too far.” This is true of all the arts. It is just as true of fraud as of painting, poetry, dance or music.

Republican claims of ‘terrorism’ leave everyone unsafe, Muslim leader of terrorist front group warns

The deputy director of the US’s biggest Muslim civil rights and advocacy group warns that Republican governors’ steps to declare his organization a “terrorist organization” won’t stop with the Muslim community.

“No governor should have the power to unilaterally declare a civil rights or advocacy group he disagrees with a terrorist organization, take punitive action against them, all in violation of due process and free speech,” Edward Ahmed Mitchell, the deputy director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, told the Guardian this month. “If any governor can get away with abusing that kind of power, then no organization is safe.”

In November, the Texas governor Greg Abbott designated Cair and the Muslim Brotherhood, the century-old movement founded in Egypt and active through chapters overseas, “foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations”. The Florida governor Ron DeSantis issued a similar order in early December.

Terry Newman: Mamdani’s ‘warmth of collectivism’ doesn’t include Jews or 9/11 victims

New York City’s newly elected mayor, Zohran Mamdani, rang in the New Year and his term at city hall by saying in his inauguration speech that his administration will “draw this city closer together” and “replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” But “rugged individualism” is the characteristic trait of Americans, especially New Yorkers. It’s this nature of individualism that makes the United States the most innovative country in the world.

The sad demise of New Year’s Eve

This year’s New Year’s Eve ‘celebrations’ in London were a reminder of just how boring the city is becoming under its mayor, Sadiq Khan.

The first blow was the decision by Royal Parks to close Primrose Hill, from Tuesday evening (30 December) to Thursday morning (1 January). The small park in north London has always been the best place in the city to watch the annual firework display. Over the years, it has become more and more popular, particularly for young people.

“The Warmth of Collectivism” Comes to City Hall: Zohran Mamdani takes office with big dreams—and dubious plans.

“Today begins a new era,” declared Zohran Mamdani upon his swearing in yesterday as New York City’s 112th mayor. “Beginning today, we will govern expansively and audaciously. We may not always succeed. But never will we be accused of lacking the courage to try.”

Inaugural ceremonies aren’t usually a forum for deep deliberation and rational discourse. But a new leader’s words are rarely disconnected from his underlying philosophy. Mamdani’s inaugural comments therefore give us an idea of what to expect: claiming to represent “all” New Yorkers, the new mayor will work quickly to push through decisions unpopular at best, and harmful at worst.

Ontario school board embeds Islamophobia lessons while neglecting antisemitism

Freedom of information documents reveal a stark double standard inside the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board, where Islamophobia is woven deeply into the curriculum across math, art, literacy and social studies, at the expense of antisemitism education.

Despite Jews facing the overwhelming majority of hate crimes in the region, the subject of antisemitism barely earns a handful of standalone handouts.

Now We Know Why Democrats Are Defending Somali Fraud

Have you ever wondered why Democrats are so aggressively defending rampant fraud in Minnesota? Why Gov. Tim Walz so desperately wants to handle the investigation on his own? There’s a simple explanation: it has nothing to do with protecting vulnerable communities or fighting discrimination. Democrats are shielding these schemes because they profit directly from them.

Somali Immigrant Welfare Scams Uncovered in Minnesota–and Sweden

More than one billion Swedish kronor (€92.4 million) in taxpayer funds intended for preschools and schools have been siphoned off through an Islamist-affiliated welfare fraud network in Sweden. A recent probe found that funds meant to support Sweden’s education system were diverted through a network of independent schools allegedly linked to radical Islamist activity.

The findings followed a police raid on an apartment in Gävle, north of Stockholm, where several individuals connected to a radical and violent Islamist extremist group were staying. Police were searching for Rabie Karam, described as “one of the main actors” in a network of schools accused of recruiting and spreading radical Islam.

We Still Don’t Know the Enemy: “It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated.”

Sun Tzu in The Art of War wrote, “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.” This lesson has often been ignored by the West when confronting Islamic jihadism. Religion in general has not been taken seriously by our technocratic, materialist, secularist world view.

Award-winning nurse struck off after sharing anti-immigration posts on social media saying ‘foreigners’ coming to Britain will become ‘your rulers’

An award-winning NHS nurse has been struck off after sharing anti-immigrant posts online saying that ‘foreigners’ who come to Britain will end up ‘being your rulers’.

Roberta Batchelor was stripped of her licence after a disciplinary panel concluded a series of her social media posts ‘sought to cause offence to immigrants…and those of Muslim faith’.

She did nothing wrong.
