$100M Somali Daycare Fraud in Minnesota EXPOSED in ONE DAY?

from Unshaken & Unafraid with Joe Pags · host Unshaken & Unafraid with Joe Pags

Minnesota taxpayers were robbed — and a web of fake Somali “daycare” and “learning centers” is right in the middle of it. First I break down the Somali daycare fraud you’ve seen all over X, and then investigative journalist Liz Collin joins me with the receipts on how this scandal really works and who allowed it to happen. We start with shocking new footage from Nick Shirley showing “daycares” that are supposed to be full of kids… sitting completely empty. No children. No cars. Just a misspelled “Quality Learning Center” sign and YOUR money on the line. Then Liz Collin explains how this ties into Minnesota’s massive fraud problem — from Feeding Our Future to political insiders and possible terror financing. In this episode: How the Somali daycare fraud scheme was set up in Minnesota Empty “learning centers” and red flags the state ignored Where the $250M+ in taxpayer money really went The role of Governor Tim Walz and Minnesota officials Why whistleblowers and honest Somali families were silenced How this could connect to Al-Shabaab and national security What this means for future elections and your tax dollars This isn’t just a Minnesota story — if they can pull off a Somali daycare scam this big in one state, they can do it anywhere. Watch, share, and make sure every taxpayer you know sees this. Liz Collin joins at 10:42.
