124,000 Somalis 'VANISH OVERNIGHT'... as Trump's "DRAGNET" SWALLOWS MINNEAPOLIS

ICE is all over Minnesota and activists say entire communities are shutting down.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement says they were conducting a target vehicle stop

when they were attacked by a crowd of rioters.

I got to see, they got their guns out.

Oh, the flaming snowballs at the agents. ICE says agents arrested two US citizens for assaulting federal officers. But as Representative Omar tells us, there's nothing to see here.

There's no crime.

We are entrepreneurs and we are elected representatives of our state. And so these vile comments and this sort of creepy obsession that he has on me and Somali-Americans really is dangerous.

Meanwhile, we've got dangerous levels of fraud happening here that she's maybe connected to. Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison. We see a web of connections between them and those directly involved in the fraud. For example, Ilhan Omar alleged enabling introducing the 2020 Meals Act, which was ultimately subject to fraud, held a campaign victory party at the Safari restaurant,

which was committed by one of the men who run that restaurant,

is uh has associations to the convicted individuals.

And now she's trying to play the victim.

Was your son intentionally targeted by ICE, you think?

I don't think so.

What do you think transpired? I think he was they were

just stopping some real men who looked Somali. Where's the video? He certainly does look Somali. Ice says this is a lie. Meanwhile if ice interacts with anybody here who's not somebody that is deportable because they're here illegally there is a valid reason for it. Wait till you see this! What do they say, 15 or 17 agitators that are fighting them?

We need help.

70 agitators surrounding us.

The county sheriff's office says that was the moment they raced to respond to a chaotic scene in South Minneapolis.

Frank, this is the most tense and violent confrontation we've seen since Operation Metro Surge started two weeks ago.

I thought these were peaceful rioters witnesses say at least four people were detained after community members swarmed ice

Agent that's terrible man. They should not be swarming

a 10th Street standoff in South, Minneapolis Circling ice agents near the caramel mall. This is all I've been proof is getting larger here, and they're chasing after I

Definitely by far the worst protesters throwing

And shouting one agent swinging a baton before ending up on the ground this is terrible Look, they were under attack chemicals and firing those people could be armed. No horrible. It was extremely horrible

They were shooting at us. So then back up. They shot at us. They sprayed us with maize.

The standoff reached a breaking point leading to this call for help. This is crazy.

We only have a few officers but we have what did they say 60 to 70 agitators that are fighting them.

A 70 man mob descended upon federal agents while they were carrying out the enforcement of US laws, which everybody told us were not being broken here. We were told that ICE and the deportation Marines were gonna show up and find nothing.

Is about Ilhan Omar.

Oh, tell us.

It starts bad, but then it gets good. She married her brother, allegedly, so that he could get into the country and be here, like an immigration matter. Trump keeps saying that she married her brother so she could get in. That's not it. She was already in. She was brought in by her dad when she was young, under 18. But she did reportedly, allegedly, marry her own brother so that he could come

into the country and then divorced him. So if the statute of limitations has run on the brother situation, still it should be exposed and documented. There is the possibility that she's still in trouble. Ilhan Omar claims that she obtained her citizenship when her father was naturalized in 2000, just months before her 18th birthday. But there's a problem. No record has been found of his naturalization paperwork. In response to a FOIA request for her father's N-400 paperwork filed by AJ Kern in June of 2023,

the National Records Center was unable to locate any filings under his name.

Where's the paperwork?

Question, can she be denaturalized and deported if this is substantiated? Answer, yes. If fraud was involved in her father's alleged naturalization, then her citizenship could be on the chopping block because that would be immigration fraud by the dad that would affect her and that would be a political earthquake. So if the dad's illegal,

the whole family's illegal, that's what she's saying. But while representative Omar is telling tall tales about her son being targeted by ICE, she keeps saying anyone investigating her has a

creepy obsession with her. It's an unhealthy, creepy obsession that he has on me and the Somali community is just very disturbing.

No, it's not disturbing to be obsessed with stopping crime.

Somalis are very much resilient and strong people. And I saw you tweet about the fact that you didn't know how humorous we were.

The troll game is amazing, mashallah. The Somali troll game is A+.

So, I mean, we are coping with mocking them back. I mean, you know, you don't allow the words of a senile, deranged person. I mean, okay, so Fox News is basically saying she's connected to this billion dollar fraud. These were her programs, these were her friends that benefited from it, all with the help of her and the governor and the attorney general. And what this really looks like, all this name calling is just deflecting people trying to run from a situation where they should be held accountable. That's what it looks like to me.

And then there's Tim Walz, House Oversight Investigation role in his role as governor or he was the attorney general. His job is to enforce the law in Minnesota, but instead he's getting donations after meeting with the feeding our future representatives, the feeding our future, the biggest known yet part of this entire fraud, excuse excuse me theft ring. That's right

Thank you. Where are hundreds of tips of fraud involving taxpayer funded programs and going? Yeah

Where are they going chair revealed today that they are not being handed over to stay?

Why not the whistleblowers who reach out to us within the department are terrified?

That's why tips haven't been shared with the Department of Human Services investigators.

And to date we have not because there is no trust.

Robbins explained what does happen.

When I get credible allegations of fraud from whistleblowers, we meet with them, we interview them.

Robbins added the U.S. Attorney's Office is one of the places she sends tips. DFL members urge the majority to send any fraud tips received to the Minnesota Department of Human Services Inspector General. But the issue is people in Minnesota were retaliated against for bringing up fraud and the whistleblowers are afraid that if they come out and they say, hey, something has happened there will be no protections and that the

Fraud mobs are gonna come for them to the fraud mobs running this government

You know We were raised from young age that you don't allow Bullies to get to you. Bullies? If you break the law, there's no bullying going on. It's just accountability. It's ridiculous Like it's hard to make sense of.

No, it's not, there's fraud.

We feel embarrassed for him.

Why would you feel embarrassed?

For America. Why? This is supposed to be the leader of our nation. Right. And as some will say, the leader of the free world.

So what's he supposed to do? See criminal activity and do nothing? To see a billion dollars leave a state that was intended for sick, hungry kids and have it sent out of the country completely? He's supposed to see that and look the other way just like everybody running this place?

But he is acting like he is on a schoolyard calling people names and you would actually get suspended even if you behave.

What about stealing billions? What happens if you do that?

And so what should happen to that? There's no way to like analyze or think or sit with it. You just gotta like laugh, you know, tell him the F off.

Wow.

And go about your day because that is, at least for us, that's the Somali way.

Look, I have no doubt that there are many Somalis living in America who love this country and obey the laws and did not come here to commit fraud. But this kind of thing, covering for criminals and saying that those criminals aren't actually criminals because the president has something against them? That's wrong, that's deflecting, and the walls are closing in.

I'm going to assume one more time, why you don't trust the people on the other side of the room to investigate these whistleblower attacks?

Because they're criminals. To investigate these whistleblower tips. They benefit from it. Because they have had the power to investigate

for at least seven years.

Wow.

And the whistleblowers come to me after they've already been to the department, after they've already been to the Attorney General, and they've generally been ghosted.

Wow, that's terrible. On the other side of the meeting, We asked a DHS inspector general James Clark about not receiving the committee's tips Do you feel as though that is stopping your efforts to stop fraud by not getting these tips and going around your office?

Are you surprised that he heard him what she said?

I don't know if surprise is the right word But I want to work in partnership with anybody that is serious serious about tackling these these issues, right? So if you have evidence that I can use to stop payments going to fraudsters,

I would like that information.

Well, guess who's hiding it?

There have been hundreds of whistleblower tips that have come in since the committee started that hotline in March. Live in the newsroom tonight, Eric Shalhouf.

Hundreds of tips since March. Everybody's terrified because the fraudsters run this place.

The unsafe or questionable tactics by other agencies that are here.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara critical of ICE's conduct. He confirms officers responded Monday when ICE reported that they were under attack.

But police did not find it necessary to intervene.

Once that was determined that the scene was safe, that there was no actual violence occurring, our officers disengaged from the scene.

They're not answering their phone now, so I don't know if they got knocked out or what.

Wow, police didn't come.

Hennepin County deputies arrived, forming a line between agents and the crowd. Scanner audio captures the frenzied back and forth.

This is crazy.

Minneapolis to ICE, are all your people accounted for?

As law enforcement race to respond. Can we get more squad? Wow. Then it'd been county sheriff's office says they don't help with immigration enforcement, but in this situation they say they respond. They did the right thing of a reported.

They did the right thing.

And police say they immediately responded to the help call too, but cleared the scene in less than 10 minutes.

Oh really?

One actively being assaulted right now. No, they are not being actively assaulted. The crowd is just following them around. Cartoon that everyone can disengage and leave the area.

Oh! So the sanctuary police show up and because they got there late and happened to show up and didn't observe anything happening right then and there they left. They left as quickly as they showed up.

Governor Tim Walz announced a series of gun safety executive actions today.

This is how Tim Walz is deflecting. Watch this.

Saying that Republicans are blocking his efforts for unmanned weapons. Trying to change the subject. As SNL reports Republicans and gun rights advocates were quick to pounce with their own criticisms.

The governor admitted he'd still like to get a ban on assault rifles through the legislature.

Why is he talking about this?

But blamed Republican House Speaker Lisa Damath for blocking the vote.

This is political. There is one person stopping us from having a vote in the House of Representatives right now to ban assault weapons, which in recent polling showed 70% of Minnesotans support, 78% in the suburbs strongly support. Only 18% of people are strongly opposed to it.

Okay, so first of all, nobody in America can go out and buy assault weapons. You cannot equip yourself the way the Marines are equipped and roll down the streets in Minnesota or any state. Can't do it. And Tim Walz is more concerned with banning something that's already banned than cracking down on fraud. How about we ban fraud? What about that? And why is there another fraud scheme that we're only uncovering?

In Minnesota. Right.

That's why he's trying to change the subject.

Right. That's why he's trying to change the subject. Right. That's why he's trying to change the subject. That's why he's trying to change the subject.

That's why he's trying to change the subject. State's local Somali community also under scrutiny on allegations of involvement in this scheme. Secretary, tell us what what you can here. Well, unemployment insurance fraud

post-COVID as you know, a lot of these states, whether they apply for waivers, whether there's more fraud in Minnesota, it never stops. We cannot have a stealing again from the American people and their tax dollars. Unemployment insurance trust fund needs to be whole to be used for what it was intended. And that's to bridge a gap for when somebody loses their job of no fault of their own. We want to bridge that gap until they can get another job.

But this is getting stolen too.

What we're seeing now is, you know, massive fraudulent behavior and we want to make sure that we're doing those full investigations. So yes, I sent a letter out to the state of Minnesota asking them to supply us with reports of where those dollars have gone. We'll send out that EYStripe team at the first of the year to make sure that we're diving in

and making sure that we have a full investigation.

Is there any type of fraud in Minnesota that didn't happen? Like, is there any government program here that was not plundered and not taken advantage of in some way? That's the question I have because so far every single one of them looks like they're just getting looted. With the help of government officials who look the other way and say I

don't see anything. I didn't know about it. Thank you for telling me. Not only did our bill deliver the largest tax cut for middle class Americans. It also addressed rampant waste, fraud, and abuse in programs like Medicaid and SNAP. As we have all witnessed with the fraud scandals coming out of our state of Minnesota, these programs have long been ripe for fraud. But House Republicans and Donald Trump implemented common sense reforms to strengthen the system to benefit the people who need it the most. But if you do that, you're a monster.

Millions to terrorists abroad. Not those people. Which brings me to addressing the failure of my governor, Tim Walz. Wow, yes, thank you. We anxiously await Tim Walz's response to House Oversight Committee Chairman Jamie Comer regarding what he knew about the 1 billion in fraud. Walls has had seven years-

Right. To address and stop the fraud.

Seven years. It wasn't until President Trump made this a national issue that Walls started to pretend that he cares about his constituents tax dollars.

Had Tim Walls been vice president, there never would have been a national issue over this. It all would have been covered up and that's probably why he was selected to be vice president. But look at this, we got education fraud.

You think about the fact that you buy plane tickets or whatever, you have to show an ID if you're gonna rent a card. But there had been no kind of ID verification as students filed their application for student

loans. Fake students getting loans.

And what we found was there were a lot of bots and ghost students that were costing taxpayers money and that those loans had gone to people who didn't exist or people who were dead. So we were able to root out a lot of that by this, I call it a simple process,

but we've clearly had a lot of work that has been going on you know with our IT department the programs that are being put in to root out this fraud and abuse.

Can you get the money back?

This is so crazy.

Well I don't know that we can get the money back. It's gone. It's really hard to claw back money but the good news is we're going to prevent it from going out going forward.

That is the taxpayers money. So a lot of it. The education secretary has called for Governor Walz to resign. She says that almost 2,000 GO students were found in Minnesota and received 12 and a half million dollars of U.S. government money. I'm telling you there is no government program here that is immune to fraud. They don't have one program that they can point to and say nothing wrong happened there. They've all got fraud.

They're all being plundered. This governor is such a joke. Unless of course he benefited in some way from this fraud. And Representative Omar benefited in some way from this fraud. And the Attorney General

got kickbacks for enabling this type of fraud. And that's the smoking gun, isn't it? The people who've been in charge for over five years, seven years, have had plenty of time to look into this. There have been whistleblowers. There have been tips. Nothing has been done. If the people who say they care about fraud had done anything about this over the last seven years, it would have stopped. People would have been arrested. There would have been investigations.

But nobody in Minnesota knew about any of this until Donald Trump made it a national issue. Nobody in Minnesota knew any of this was going on until people started looking into it from outside of Minnesota. Everything there was rosy and peachy and squeaky clean until a light was shown on criminal activity in many different parts of the state. We have levels of immigration fraud. We have levels of financial fraud. Now does this mean everybody in Minnesota is taking advantage of these programs and robbing the American public?

Absolutely not. There are many people of all backgrounds in Minnesota and across this country that love this country and did not come here and have no plans to engage in fraud. There are many people that love this country and want to see it succeed but it can't do that if the fraudsters are the ones succeeding because their but it can't do that if the fraudsters are the ones succeeding because their success happens at the expense of the rest of us. I'll see you in the next video.
