President Donald J. Trump is right: Minnesota has become “a hub of fraudulent money laundering activity,” where “refugees from Somalia are completely taking over the once great State.”

Nowhere is that more evident than the shocking fraud scandal that took place under the incompetence of deeply disturbed Democrat Gov. Tim Walz, in which 78 of the 86 individuals charged so far are of Somali ancestry.

• Democrats allowed a $1+ billion heist to take place. Dozens of individuals — largely of East African descent — looted taxpayers out of over $1 billion that was intended for child food assistance in what amounted to the country’s largest pandemic relief fraud scheme.
• The fraud involved a massive, complex network of nonprofits and affiliates, largely run through the Somali community. Nonprofits tied to the Somali community claimed to have fed tens of thousands of non-existent hungry children, claimed to have provided services to non-existent homeless, and claimed to have provided therapy for non-existent autistic Somali children. Kickbacks were paid, lavish lifestyles were funded, and money was sent overseas — some of it even allegedly funneled to a terror group.
• The massive scandal unfolded on Walz’s watch — and he did absolutely nothing about it. All enforcement has been at the federal — not state — level. In fact, the state’s cowardly Democrat officials were “reluctant” to act — “tolerating, if not tacitly allowing, the fraud” and ignoring whistleblowers — to avoid “political backlash among the Somali community” and accusations of racism.
• President Trump is taking action. The Trump Administration is terminating Temporary Protected Status for Somalis, indefinitely halting migration from third-world countries, reexamining green cards for every alien from every country of concern, pausing all asylum decisions, and more — all as part of its relentless effort to ensure migrants that remain are a net positive on our society.
