President Donald Trump announced Friday that he is immediately ending temporary deportation protections for Somali nationals living in Minnesota, expediting the conclusion of a program first implemented in 1991 under then-President George H. W. Bush.<\/p>\n

\u201cMinnesota, under Governor Waltz, is a hub of fraudulent money laundering activity. I am, as President of the United States, hereby terminating, effective immediately, the Temporary Protected Status (TPS Program) for Somalis in Minnesota. Somali gangs are terrorizing the people of that great State, and BILLIONS of Dollars are missing. Send them back to where they came from. It\u2019s OVER!\u201d Trump wrote in a late-night\u00a0Truth Social post.<\/p>\n
Trump\u2019s declaration comes on the heels of a\u00a0shocking investigative report by City Journal that said Minnesota, home to the country\u2019s biggest Somali community, is rife with criminality and fraud under Democratic Gov. Tim Walz, and that a lot of the money is being funneled to a terrorist organization in Somalia:<\/p>\n
Minnesota is drowning in fraud. Billions in taxpayer dollars have been stolen during the administration of Governor Tim Walz alone. Democratic state officials, overseeing one of the most generous welfare regimes in the country, are asleep at the switch. And the media, duty-bound by progressive pieties, refuse to connect the dots.<\/em><\/p>\n In many cases, the fraud has allegedly been perpetrated by members of Minnesota\u2019s sizeable Somali community. Federal counterterrorism sources confirm that millions of dollars in stolen funds have been sent back to Somalia, where they ultimately landed in the hands of the terror group Al-Shabaab. As one confidential source put it: \u201cThe largest funder of Al-Shabaab is the Minnesota taxpayer.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Meanwhile, Walz\u00a0is facing more federal scrutiny\u00a0over his administration\u2019s handling of a state housing program that was shut down amid widespread fraud allegations.<\/p>\n Department of Human Services temporary commissioner Shireen Gandhi asked federal officials to help terminate the Housing Stabilization Services program, citing \u201ccredible allegations of fraud\u201d and \u201cexponential growth in spending.\u201d<\/p>\n The Medicaid-funded program was intended to help older adults and people with disabilities secure housing. Still, costs soared from an estimated $2.6 million annually in 2017 to $107 million by 2024, according to the\u00a0Minnesota Star Tribune.<\/p>\n Fraud cases have included Minnesota\u2019s Feeding Our Future scandal, abuses in the state\u2019s autism program, various Medicaid schemes, and most recently, housing assistance.<\/p>\n Two weeks ago, a Lakeville, Minn., man\u00a0was sentenced in federal court\u00a0to one year of probation for his involvement in the massive Feeding Our Future fraud investigation.<\/p>\n U.S. District Judge Nancy Brasel sentenced Khadar Adan, who pleaded guilty in August to one count of theft of government property, for allowing a fraudulent food distribution site to operate out of his Minneapolis business center, JigJiga.<\/p>\n Adan admitted to accepting $1,000 in illicit proceeds and was ordered to pay the same amount in restitution,\u00a0the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported.<\/p>\n Adan was the last of three defendants tied to the Lake Street Kitchen scheme housed within JigJiga to plead guilty.<\/p>\n The $250 million Feeding Our Future case \u2014 centered on a St. Anthony nonprofit \u2014 is the largest pandemic-era fraud prosecution in the United States. Of the 75 people charged, 50 have entered guilty pleas. Prosecutors say the defendants falsely claimed to have provided millions of meals to children during the COVID-19 pandemic, instead diverting federal reimbursements to purchase luxury cars, real estate, and other high-end goods.<\/p>\n According to court records, Adan and his co-defendants claimed to have served 70,000 meals between December 2020 and April 2021 through Lake Street Kitchen, receiving \u201csignificant funds\u201d in return. Federal prosecutors said only a small fraction of those meals were actually distributed.<\/p>\n Co-defendant Liban Yasin Alishire, who co-operated Lake Street Kitchen and another site, Community Enhancement Services, received more than $1.6 million and pleaded guilty in 2023.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, a former campaign associate of Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) pleaded guilty last month to participating in the same scam, adding another chapter to the growing list of controversies surrounding the progressive lawmaker\u2019s political orbit.<\/p>\n She responded to Trump\u2019s order on the X platform.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In a moment that will echo through the halls of Congress for years to come, Representative Byron Donalds of Florida delivered a fiery, meticulously documented takedown of former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, leaving the veteran lawmaker speechless and her legacy in tatters. What began as a routine session quickly transformed into a historic reckoning, broadcast to millions, as Donalds laid bare decades of alleged corruption, hypocrisy, and abuse of power.<\/p>\n The House chamber was packed. Reporters jostled for position, cameras rolled, and the air crackled with anticipation. At 84, Nancy Pelosi still commanded the room with her trademark gavel\u2014a symbol of her authority and longevity. Yet on this day, her power would be tested as never before.<\/p>\n Pelosi\u2019s voice, sharp and disdainful, recognized Byron Donalds, the freshman Congressman from Naples, Florida. Her words dripped with contempt, branding Donalds a \u201ctoken\u201d and an \u201cUncle Tom\u201d\u2014a black man who, in her view, had betrayed his race for political gain. The chamber gasped. Even her own party shifted uncomfortably as Pelosi\u2019s attack escalated, targeting not just Donalds, but his family and integrity.<\/p>\n Donalds sat, surrounded by hundreds who doubted him, yet his demeanor was calm. Years of facing prejudice and adversity had prepared him for this moment. He recalled his mother\u2019s advice: \u201cAngry black men scare them. Smart black men terrify them. Be smart, baby.\u201d As the gallery erupted with \u201cshame\u201d chants and media screens replayed attacks on his character, Donalds drew strength from his family watching at home and the truth he had painstakingly gathered.<\/p>\n Pelosi concluded her tirade with a warning: \u201cHistory will judge you harshly.\u201d But Donalds, unshaken, rose and asked simply, \u201cAre you finished?\u201d The question hung in the air. Pelosi, taken aback by his composure, gave him the floor. What followed was a masterclass in political accountability.<\/p>\n Donalds opened a thick Manila folder. \u201cYou called me a sellout, attacked my wife and children, questioned my integrity. So let\u2019s discuss integrity\u2014let\u2019s discuss who really sold out.\u201d He revealed a series of financial documents and timelines that would change the narrative forever.<\/p>\n On the display screens, Donalds showed Paul Pelosi\u2019s stock trades\u2014$54 million in returns in 2024 alone, a staggering 65% profit far exceeding the S&P 500 and outperforming Wall Street legends. How was this possible? Donalds pointed to the suspicious timing of trades, often coinciding perfectly with congressional votes and regulatory actions overseen by Pelosi herself.<\/p>\n He detailed the Nvidia scandal: Paul Pelosi purchased millions in stock days before Congress passed a $52 billion chips act, which Nancy championed. The profits\u2014over a million dollars in just 73 days\u2014were impossible to ignore. When pressed, Pelosi insisted her husband was simply a savvy investor, but Donalds produced evidence showing similar patterns with Visa, Microsoft, Broadcom, Tesla, and more.<\/p>\n Visa stock, for example, was sold months before the DOJ filed a surprise lawsuit, causing the stock to crash. Microsoft shares were bought before lucrative Army contracts. Apple and Amazon trades preceded major legislative votes. Each time, Paul Pelosi\u2019s trades anticipated market-moving events that only someone with insider knowledge could predict.<\/p>\n The revelations sent shockwaves through the chamber. Even Democrats began to question the timing and ethics of the trades. Calls for transparency grew louder as Donalds presented more evidence, including SEC filings, campaign finance violations, and links to family businesses.<\/p>\n Pelosi tried to shift the narrative, accusing Donalds of sexism and racism, claiming the attacks were coordinated assaults on a trailblazing woman. But Donalds wouldn\u2019t be distracted. He calmly pointed out the statistics from Pelosi\u2019s own district: black poverty up 33%, homelessness up 200%, while Pelosi\u2019s net worth soared to $240 million. \u201cWho sold out who?\u201d he asked, letting the silence answer.<\/p>\n Donalds then turned to Pelosi\u2019s son, Paul Pelosi Jr., detailing his lucrative, often questionable business ventures. He highlighted the InfoUSA scandal, where Paul Jr. received a $180,000 salary with no relevant experience, working for a Clinton Foundation donor. He was simultaneously employed at Countrywide Financial during the subprime mortgage crisis, when Nancy received VIP loans while families lost their homes.<\/p>\n Victims stood in the gallery, sharing stories of lost homes and ruined lives. Donalds let every voice be heard, driving home the human cost of political privilege.<\/p>\n The Natural Blue Resources fraud was next\u2014Paul Jr. was president and COO of a company charged with securities fraud, secretly controlled by convicted criminals. Investors lost their life savings, trusting the Pelosi name. Then came the Ukraine connection: Paul Jr. traveled to Ukraine for business while Nancy shaped U.S. policy on the region, raising questions about conflicts of interest.<\/p>\n Donalds didn\u2019t stop at financial scandals. He played previously unreleased footage from January 6th, showing Pelosi admitting responsibility for security failures, contradicting her later public statements blaming Donald Trump. He outlined how Pelosi denied National Guard requests, prioritizing optics over safety, then scapegoated the Capitol Police Chief.<\/p>\n He exposed the COVID salon scandal, showing Pelosi breaking her own lockdown rules to get a haircut while small businesses were shuttered. The salon owner spoke, describing threats and financial ruin after Pelosi accused her of a setup.<\/p>\n As the evidence mounted, senior Democrats called for investigations. Even progressive icons like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez advocated transparency. Pelosi\u2019s support evaporated\u2014colleagues left, staff packed up, and her name was removed from office doors.<\/p>\n Donalds delivered the final blow: \u201cThis isn\u2019t public service. This is organized corruption\u2014a family empire built on exploiting office.\u201d He called for ethics, DOJ, and FBI investigations, and demanded Pelosi\u2019s immediate resignation.<\/p>\n The chamber exploded. Republicans called for votes, Democrats scattered, and the media went into overdrive. Social media lit up\u2014#PelosiExposed, #ByronDonalds, trending worldwide. C-SPAN viewership hit record highs as the public watched history unfold.<\/p>\n Pelosi, once the most powerful woman in Congress, was wheeled out of the chamber, her authority gone. Allies distanced themselves, family members separated finances, and her dynasty collapsed. Within weeks, Pelosi resigned. Investigations began, properties went up for sale, and her family scattered.<\/p>\n Donalds, meanwhile, returned to his constituents, teaching youth entrepreneurship and ethics. His speech empowered a new wave of accountability, increasing black voter registration for Republicans by 15% and sparking national conversations about corruption.<\/p>\n Eighteen months later, Pelosi\u2019s career was a cautionary tale\u2014her name synonymous with congressional corruption, her case studied in political science classes. Donalds spoke at the National Press Club, urging Americans to hold all politicians accountable, regardless of party.<\/p>\n He reflected on the real victory\u2014not the destruction of a rival, but the empowerment of everyday Americans to demand truth and integrity from their leaders. \u201cUse power to serve others, not yourself,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s the choice we all have.\u201d<\/p>\n Byron Donalds\u2019 expos\u00e9 was more than a political spectacle\u2014it was a seismic shift in American politics. It proved that one person armed with truth and courage could dismantle decades of institutional protection and corruption. As Donalds returned home to his family, the lesson was clear: In the end, truth is the most powerful weapon of all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" President Donald Trump announced Friday that he is immediately ending temporary deportation protections for Somali nationals living in Minnesota, expediting the conclusion of a program first implemented in … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-usa-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=56"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":58,"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56\/revisions\/58"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=56"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=56"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/discovernews9.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=56"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Byron Donalds Stuns Congress<\/h2>\n
