USAO Colin McDonald, assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s National Fraud Enforcement Division, announced the initial fraud indictments for the first set of fraudsters operating in Minneapolis, Minnesota. McDonald emphasized this is only the beginning of the arrests in Minnesota as the fraud is beyond a scale that can be appropriately explained.
Together with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz, U.S Attorney McDonald announces the first 15 individuals indicted with initial investigated theft of $90 million. The DOJ anticipates hundreds more arrests. Secretary Kennedy notes the scale of fraud is approximately 10x more than initially evaluated.
“Let me be clear upfront about something: This is not the end of our work in Minnesota,” McDonald said. “This is the beginning of our work in Minnesota. The fraud here in Minnesota is shocking.” McDonald then pointed to Minnesota’s housing stabilization services program, which was designed to help homeless residents find and keep housing, as one of the starkest examples. The program was initially estimated in 2020 to cost about $2.5 million per year, but ballooned to more than $104 million by 2024, which McDonald attributed entirely to fraud.
What we are seeing in this storyline is the exact reason why Barack Obama and Eric Holder selected Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be Kamala Harris’ running mate. Former AG Eric Holder was responsible for investigating all of the potential nominees to run with Harris, and all of the Minnesota fraud was well known.
Minneapolis was/is the operational epicenter of a Marxist network that sits underneath Barack Obama and extends from Chicago through Minneapolis to Madison Wisconsin. None of this corrupt activity is a surprise to anyone who has watched how the networks operate. Union leadership like SEIU are aligned with NGO’s a various Obama community groups and operate within these regions.
Minnesota – “The fraud is enormous,” Colin McDonald, assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s National Fraud Enforcement Division, was asked about former U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson’s estimate that fraud in Minnesota could total $9 billion across more than a dozen programs.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if that number is accurate or even small.
”But today, the collection of [15] cases reach 90 million in intended loss from the from the pockets of the taxpayer.”
McDonald stressed that prosecutors are focused first on individual defendants and specific cases, not a final statewide price tag.
“I don’t have the exact number, because what I do is I look at individual people committing individual crimes,” he continued. “And at the end of all of our work, we’ll tally it all up and we’ll tell you exactly how much was stolen from the American people.
“We’re focused on individual defendants.”
Federal officials said they are expanding the Midwest Health Care Fraud Strike Force into Minnesota and adding a new Medicaid fraud strike force with 15 prosecutors who can be deployed nationwide.
“This is not the end of the beginning,” McDonald concluded at Thursday’s news conference. “This is the beginning.” (source)
Thank God!
Justice is here!!
3,300 cases and they are just getting started.
Full speed ahead!!!
Thank God for President Trump or we’d be seeing none of this!!!

The soon to retire Ohio Attorney General, Dave Yost, (R) announced today the prosecution of four individuals in Columbus for fraud. I read the article with anticipation of the multi-million dollar benefits rip-offs that have been in the media. But, no. These were low-level crooks – including family members – swiping money from dementia patients. Come on, man! While these peoples actions were abhorrent and deserve prosecution, GET a CLUE and go after the professional fraud gangs!!
“This is the beginning”.
We choose to be grateful even though we are suffering grief from fraud, gangs and drugs that caused my brothers death, and many thousands of others.
Pain can help us grow spiritually if we follow God’s instructions.
Patience and thankfulness always.
He will make all things right in His time.
And something is happening now.
OK, let’s go for the Big-Shots! Who are the K-Street lobbyists that write and craft all this loosy-goosy legislation that is missing auditing, reasonable checks, cash and payment controls and over-sight crafted-in! Who are the Legislators in Kongress that are too busy to read said legislation and then tell us “We’ll have to vote for the legislation so we know what’s in it”! Who are the bureaucrats who decide how to get the money to the intended beneficiaries and always choose the same NGO network and organizations like the SPLC! Who are the MSM jerks that decide if a story gets the Darling-treatment or the Hitler-treatment. Once found, PROSECUTE these criminals; bad publicity, a strongly worded memo or firing really does nothing! JAIL TIME!
I hope dewhine is being investigated!
Being within ten feet of him you can feel the ooze!
Mike DeWine is a POS, Rino scumbag who ought to be tarred and feathered.
Ohio citizens are worse off after DeWine.
Many Republicans in my state need “culled” to find those who will actually serve the people.
I want ethical, honest government that works for all Ohioans.
As for AG, Dave Yost, he is less than worthless!! Term limited, he will never be voted into office again.
And yes, J.D. Vance has been informed of FRAUD in his home state, by yours truly. Twice.
All the Democrats knew this was ongoing that’s why Waltz was hoisted into VP position for Scamala.
Waltz doesn’t decide anything
Walz is a Wanker! Like Starmer. And many, many more of the globalist commie scum. Obama, Holder, Clapper, Brennan, Comey and yes also ‘Peter Stroke.’
You hit nail on the head. 👍
Don’t forget Mary.
DO NOT FORGET

Thanks to Nick Shirley too and to all the citizen reporters out there who are exposing fraud. God bless them and keep them safe.
Tyler Oliveira is another reporter on the ground.
and who was the older man who put Nick Shirley onto all this? He was with Shirley in the first few videos.
Pam Bondi — what a loser maroon
I still won’t believe they will see jail time…. Wonderful to see something possibly might be done about the massive corruption in this country.
Sundance needs to know that the US Attorney’s Office in San Diego is deliberately slow-walking HSI Cases on California CDL for illegal immigrants using employee leasing brokers.
The prosecutor assigned to the cases is deliberately delaying the indictments and arrests.
How many more Americans have to be killed by illegal immigrants driving long-distance freight trucks while federal prosecutors delay until Gavin Newsom is President?
Every single weigh station needs to be open around the clock and pull all trucks in.
Then the DOT needs to file massive lawsuits against SOS including those that will actually issue a CDL to Habib for his pal who doesn’t need to show up.
There are countless videos taken by truck drivers of illegals pulling DOT numbers off of trucks and companies names off and Fuel tax Agreements at truck stops.
How about adding ICE agents to those weigh stations. How about roving checks points at trucker gas stops?
Check out what Wyoming is doing, do a search at Cowboy State Daily .com for a couple articles on the effort to clean up the highways. Cowboys ain’t messin’ ’round.
But Wyoming has to send these illegal semi-drivers to Denver ICE. Only God knows what the Denver authorities do with them since it is a Sanctuary City in a Sanctuary State.
How about the DOJ just indicting the California CDL cases from HSI they already have on a silver platter? 🤔
What about the tools in MN government that turned a blind eye to all of this?
Hopefully they are scooped up in the 3300 cases.
…or maybe in the next 2500 cases.
They were/are threatened with their lives and nothing less.
Now you’re asking the right question. SOMEBODY GO AFTER THE GOV OFFICIALS FOR ALLOWING THIS PLEASE!!!!
Deleted
it is my understanding that they didnt just “allow” this, they crafted their own set of “work arounds” for any safeguards that were in the legislation — such as “temporary” exclusion from from checking immigration status that became a permanent exclusion; and not checking anything on people 62 or older — NEVER in the legislation.
Not blind eyed at all. They have homes and cars bought with payoffs.
Yeah, I agree. Walz is building a brand new Mansion in Monta with our taxpayer money.
He is such a crook
Hopefully, he’ll be living in a Big House, just not the one he’s building.
funny
How big, deep & widespread does fraud and theft have to become before they become hanging offenses ?
Those tools were sharp for a long time, but this ‘fraud squad’ is bluntiing the edge they had.
I suspect they profited from the fraud, but it will be hard to prove. Walz belongs in prison. He oversaw the massive fraud.
It was beyond those tools….. the DNC crime family knew it as well… which is how and why Walz was elevated to VP for scamala.
Agreed. The DNC, the Clinton Initiative, and BHO are at the top of theses schemes. I doubt accountability will it get that far but if Waltz is squeezed hard enough he will squeal like he was on a canoe trip while the banjo plays. There will be hearings, the truth will come out, it won’t be reported, and it will go away when the next shinny object appears.
For the record;
It sure would be nice if that “all at once, like milk boiling over”, was gobbling up the corruption, treason, fraud, dereliction of duty, gross maleficent and cancerous cabal.
Instead of the hard working people of this country and those trying to do right by the country.
Pretty much thinking our whole “national debt” is a scam.
I think it is all fraud, they know we know and don’t give a damn.
You may well be half-right.
And not just in this nation, most foreign aid is a scam too. Also the Ukraine war Obama and H. Clinton started.
Since ~1872 maybe?
As good as our current US Treasury Secretary Bassett is, hopefully they track stolen US taxpayer funds directly to the criminally corrupt kenyan himself. Indicating that piece of human garbage would turn every one of his supporting minions against him.
Hopefully a lot of these people are squealing like little PIGGIES about the higher ups who put them up to this.
Good — we have an explanation connecting the Marxist network that sits underneath Barack Obama. As Gutfeld says graft/money theft is a feature of D politics, not a bug.
Paraphrasing the Kirk Douglas quote from In Harms Way.
In case you didn’t know it that leg is busted.
In my best Erin Brockovich voice….etc…
There needs to be a Forensic Audit of the banks (and those people of Somali origin and accused–and their travel histories), if that’s what they/Banks, are, in Somalia…?
How about there be some sort of future sanctions against the country of Somalia?
Healthy, not suicidal, brakes work…
How about we send Somalia a bill for what they not only owe us, but what its cost us to deal with all this.
How about we just return all their Somalians back to them?
How about stopping any and all aid to that stinking, corrupt, mooslim pit of fraud and graft.
Insert the gif from the beginning of Gladiator where Russel Crow says ‘unleash hell’
none of this would be possible but for the original fraud of the USG now counterfeiting 2 trillion per year via federal reserve. so they’ll make these arrests and end the fraud on the user end. but i bet congress doesnt cut the budget by a cent. they are robbing us with inflation and paying forigners and criminals all in one fell swoop. a just nation would burn this government to the ground.
Congress hasn’t produced a budget since 1997. This is the Land of the Fraud, Home of the Grift, with the taxpayer left taking the piss.
This! The longer we wait, the more money they steal from us. When do we say enough?
This raises the obvious question why would any not cheat on their income taxes? With this kind of stuff having gone on for years, even a small crackdown destroys faith in the entire system, and our voluntary participation in it is up for grabs.
If you didn’t pay $900 of taxes the IRS would be all over you.
They’d likely go after you for shortchanging them for less then the cost of a single postage stamp.
Last I checked, a single first class stamp cost 74¢.
78 cents.
We had H&R Block do our taxes, just got a letter from the IRS that we still owe $9500😳.
We sent the letter to H&R on Monday no response yet
Very true. American, French, Russian revolutions come to mind. Citizens will take just so much for just so long.
Better RICO the governor on down! Governor, senators, congressmen, mayors, AGs, they ALL must be indicted and RICO their arsses…. They all allowed it to happen on their watch….
Why dont we just shut the programs down. The whole covid PPP fund was intended to be easy hand outs to buddies. There was no “fraud” the PPP was paid out as intended!
I feel simolarly about pretty much all our social safety net programs. Its all majority fraud. The minority who use the program as intended could find the help they needed if the government closed up shop.
Faith communities and philathropists filled this hole much more efficiently before government got in the game.
I agree. I remember when the PPP funds were announced (and not one penny had been given out yet)… my lone thought was this was going to be huge & easy fraud. And it was. There were few protections around it on purpose. More theft of taxpayer money.
I used to work with a guy who would do a lot of work but never what he was supposed to do. He would take it upon himself to reprioritize the work.
It was work that needed to be done eventually but I believe he thought accomplishing a lot of smaller and easier projects and not the one big one that was a higher priority would make him look more valuable to our bosses.
His coworkers knew what he was doing because we had to pick up his slack on the project he was supposed to be working on. He left when it finally caught up to him.
Anyway, every time I see the DOJ announce a success or something like this I think of that guy.
I’m happy they are doing this. It definitely needed to happen but that’s lot of investigations and personnel tied up in this.
The reason I say this is I hope they aren’t taking resources away from investigating election fraud, the coup and the ongoing coverup just to show how valuable and needed they are to the tax payer. It reminds me of the “look I’m busy and accomplishing things guy”.
Can the DOJ walk and chew gum? Sure but it comes down to the number of people you have walking and chewing for each investigation that’s important.
You didn’t really think that Schumer, Schiff, Nadler, Blumenthal and Murphy etc have two multimillion dollar homes in places like Greenwich, CT, Bayridge, Brooklyn and Alexandria, VA with younger children in exclusive private schools and older ones going to Harvard on $200,000 year? 😎
Off topic but news is breaking that NASCAR driver Kyle Busch died suddenly in a hospital.
Walz was not nominated as Democrat VP despite this fraud.
Walz was not nominated as Democrat VP BECAUSE OF this fraud.
The Democrats needed someone they could control.
The corrupt moron Tim Walz fit the bill.
Does the government not have anyone who oversees the pot of gold these thieves have been stealing from ?
Yes they do, they’re called politicians.
Where did so much festering RACISM, rot, debasement, fraud, etc. begin “recently?” OBOWMA.
I will never forget the dread I felt when I heard his “immortal” epithet:
“We’re five days away from the fundamental transformation of the United States.”
LORD help us through these times….
The fraud is too widespread for Tim Walz and certain members of his administration not to have known. I suspect many of the local elected officials and certain government overseers of such organizations knew too. I hope they get them all. Next, California please
Hopefully they will squeeze from the bottom and offer plea deals for cooperation until the get to the top. The DNC contribution kick program. The Clinton Initiative. BHO.
The fraud is too widespread for Tim Walz and certain members of his administration not to have known.
yes, so widespread that it’s got to be intentional from the very top
Democrat Business Model:
— Establish and fund gummint programs that can be looted by those in the know
— Allow favored classes of looters to loot at will
— No oversight
— No accountability
— America’s wealth simply fire-hosed out to the favored classes of looters
— Accountability?
— Go fish
Which of course leads me to ask, why isn’t shutting down the programs part of the MAGA discussion?
Secretary Kennedy has been searching for reasons of why autism rates have been climbing over the years and has now found one of the significant causes. Fraud.
yes
there was funding for treatment of autism in schools
fraudsters set up similar programs and sought funding, just like the Learing Centers
a huge program that was looted bigly by Minnesota fraudsters
Exactly.
Screw the country as much as you want.
Just so you vote the Big D that is looking the other way.
And Minnesotans are known for being the big D.
D for dumb.
D for depraved.
D for desparate.
D for devious.
D for demons.
So yes, they will vote D, since it is who they follow, the Devil.
PLEASE HOLD THESE CRIMINALS ACCOUNTABLE.
My Guess… They want to make the bigger news about the January 6ers getting money, than exposing the FRAUD.
“This is the beginning of our work in Minnesota. The fraud here in Minnesota is shocking.”
Tip of the iceberg. Cali and NY will be saying hold my beer.
What are the names of those indicted?

Thank you.
Wow. All happening in broad daylight and it was allowed to happen.
In the broad light of day…
In front of your eyes and under your nose too.
Every one of those reporters should be hung and the stations burned to the ground. That would be a start.
The MSM isn’t just FAKE NEWS…..it’s a murderous cabal responsible for illegal aliens killing US citizens, Somalians stealing billions of tax payer money and demoncrats and RINOS reaping the benefits.
Is Ms. Blondi going to be on Fox tonight telling us she had all this on her desk and was organizing it when she got the boot?
Her and Susie Wiles better get their stories straight.
“Every one of those reporters should be hung and the stations burned to the ground.”
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
I wonder if Susie Wiles understands that her unbounded interview with Vanity Fair is strike one?

“Organized theft” – organized by Dim politicians and their cohorts.
She needs to be charged for her complicity in the Minnesota fraud and for lying on her immigration forms and kicked the heck out of the country.
She truly believes Somalis deserve REPARATIONS just because they live on the continent of Africa and have dark skin.
She needs to expire.
Along with all the other democommies and Rinos in the DC sewer.
I guess the $250M fraud broad didn’t sing enough. That’s why she got 41 years. Maybe she will reconsider.
Remember what happened to the Democratic Senator from MN that wouldn’t vote to continue the fraud?
The gunman claimed he was sent by Tim Walz.
She will be quietly released in the not to distant future.
Maybe bo ass burg will let her out.
I hope they audit and investigate Colorado.
I live in TN and had my Medicare card compromised by a medical supply company in Colorado for six catheters and Medicare paid something like $17,000. Crazy!
My secondary insurance would not pay and sent me my statement before my quarterly Medicare statement was sent to me. That’s how I initially found out.
Medicare needs to stop the quarterly statements and notify expenditures to the card holders sooner.
Medicare cancelled my card. Sent another. Since then, I have used the second card and the medical practices have told me I am not the only one getting a new card. Lots of reissuing of new cards.
Sad state of affairs when the crooks have months to fleece America.
41 year sentences sound just about right.
We should be paying very little in taxes if billions and possiblly trillions can be stolen.
It’s amazing how much ACTUAL crime you can find when you’re not busy spying on your political opponents, persecuting the innocent and protecting the interests of your corrupt party.
What I am about to say is not popular, but please hear me out.
On various radio and television programs, pundits are asking whether this round of indictments will include Minnesota State government figures–maybe Gov. Tim Walz or AG Keith Ellison, or perhaps lower-level employees. Some, like me, are disappointed that Tim Walz remains at large, but I have always expressed skepticism here that any such charges will be brought against Waltz, nor should they be. Tim Walz is a horrible person and one of the worst governors in U.S. history, but what is the federal crime he committed?
Knowing that there is a ton of fraud in a state government program and continuing to administer it without more personal involvement by him is not a crime. And as of today, there is no evidence of bribes taken by Waltz. So far. The various Somali-dominated frauds were basically an old-fashioned vote-buying scheme: corrupt and with legal consequences. They absconded with taxpayer dollars.
All of that said, we should all stay tuned. There were something like 80+ fraudsters indicated in Feeding Our Future. The current, much larger, frauds will likely result in several hundred indictments.
Who knows? I have a gut feeling that much more evidence will surface soon, and that it will justify including government officials like Waltz, Omar, and Ellison in those numbers. Godspeed DOJ.
“Minneapolis was/is the operational epicenter of a Marxist network…”
I have been saying for years — years — that Minnesota, and by extension the largest city in the cesspool, Minnecrapolis, is the epicenter of many long practiced illegalities.
Voter fraud?
Look here.
Communist infiltrators?
Look here.
Butchering babies in the womb?
Look here.
Minnesota nice?
As a Minnesotan I’m guessing that that term was planted by the See Eye Aye years ago to cover their tracks for the evil they knew they’d be pertetrating.
Is the fraud as enormous as Michelle Obamas bulge?
Nasty!
Red-belied woodpeckers love the wild cherry trees in my woods because anyplace they peck a hole there’s sure to be a wriggly grub hiding beneath the bark.
Same holds true for Minnesota, where the DOJ, FBI and HHS are the woodpeckers and the woods are full of Democrat-grown cherry trees with grubby Somali fraudsters hiding beneath the bark of every one of them!
So here’s hoping those DOJ woodpeckers pick a bushel and a peck of those Somali fraudsters, swallow ’em whole and poop ’em out on Tim Walz’ and Ilhan Omar’s heads!
It will be interesting regarding Omar. They might wait on her because of optics going into the Mid Terms. She is as dirty as dirt so I hope she eventually falls hard.

The Many Minnesota Fraud Scandals lead to Obama and Sorros!
Instead of focusing on the effects of the Muslim immigration movement promoted by Obama and financed by Soros, the discussion mainly revolves around regrettable individual misconduct by ringleaders of smaller groups.
I. Prelude
II. U.S. institutions are being infiltrated with refugees
In 12/25, President Trump expressed the connections: Welfare fraud took place in the backyard of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN5), in the center people like Salim Ahmed Said she knows very well.
III. “Feeding Our Future”
Aimee Bock was sentenced to 41 years in prison.

I hope the Federales end up deporting a bunch of Somali fraudsters back to their feces-hole country of origin. And may Ilhan Omar be the most prominent of the deportees.
I loved how Dr. Oz gave a shout out to Nick Shirley who apparently was there in the audience.
If one considers that Minnesota ranks only 22d in population, the corruption nationwide has barely been scratched in my estimation.
Thank GOD for Trump or we did not seeing none of this,
speed the prosecution and this criminal in prison,
These fraudsters might go to prison but the money they stole is already spent. We are on the hook for it. It is added to the national debt and we pay for it with inflation.
Seize all of their assets, including homes, cars, bank accounts, anything of value, and including those transferred to family members in Somalia. Drag them through the courts/legal system for years if necessary. Bankrupt the hell out of every one of them.
