DHS ended 60 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 4: up placing the blame on the Illinois Governor J. B. 61 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 4: Pritzker for permitting the employment of an illegal police officer 62 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 4: in a state. They said, JB. Pritsker doesn't just allow 63 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 4: violent illegal aliens to terrorize Illinois communities, he allows illegal 64 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 4: aliens to work as swarm police officers.

What kind of police department gives 67 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 4: criminal illegal aliens badges and guns? It is a felony 68 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 4: for aliens to even possess a firearm a so called 69 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 4: law enforcement officer who is actively breaking the law. This 70 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 4: is according to the Homeland Security Secretary trick Atricia McLaughlin 71 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: in a statement and thankfully via the talkbacks, as Max 72 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 4: and I have been talking about this this morning on 73 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 4: a Freedom Friday. People bringing up a lot of a 74 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 4: lot of different issues here, let's get to a few 75 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 4: more comments on this. 76 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 3: Good morning guys. I'm just wondering how an illegal immigrant 77 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 3: gets paid at a full time government job. Do they 78 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 3: have a Social Security number? Or is that false as well? 79 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I just added to the list of questions 80 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 4: along with this one. 81 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 6: As part of your oath of office, a police officer 82 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 6: takes an oath to uphold the Constitution in the United 83 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 6: States and whatever state that they are serving in. He's 84 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 6: in violation of the constitution, so every arrest that he 85 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 6: has made is going to be looked to be overturned. 86 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 6: You are going to have attorneys standing in line in 87 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 6: front of the courthouses to have their clients' convictions overturned. 88 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 7: That he was a part of the arrest. 89 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: It's a great point. 90 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 6: You'll find the federal judges that were put in by 91 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 6: Biden doing it. 92 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 2: That's a great point. 93 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 5: We talked about it earlier, and then we had a 94 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 5: caller earlier assumed that this person was of Hispanic descent, 95 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 5: being in the legal immigrant also not the wrong assumption. 96 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 5: That said, the point that the talkbacker before the break 97 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 5: was trying to make was that hey, if you're Hispanic 98 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 5: and you're serving a Hispanic community, people are going to 99 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 5: trust you more. Well, over the break, I did some 100 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 5: days and hanover Park, Illinois. Between white and Asian it 101 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 5: accounts for over fifty percent of the population, with Hispanic 102 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 5: population being thirteen percent. So even that is like, I 103 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 5: get that we're reaching here, but that doesn't even hold 104 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 5: up well. And add this particular story to the list 105 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 5: of as if you needed it. 106 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 4: But I'm just saying, add it to the list of 107 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 4: reasons why you can't have these sanctuary policies, because there 108 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 4: are just a myriad of unintended consequences attached to that. 109 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 2: And if you have. 110 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 4: Sanctuary policies and those sanctuary policies are now giving you 111 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 4: justification to hire as law enforcement those that are here illegally. 112 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 4: As we've demonstrated, and as the listener is demonstrated this 113 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 4: morning on the show again, that brings up a litany 114 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 4: of unintended consequences, which also push back on so many 115 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 4: of the arguments that Democrats use, especially relating to gun 116 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 4: control and on reform efforts. They're all focused on keeping 117 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 4: the guns out of the hands of the of the 118 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 4: bad guys and putting forward different laws that would go 119 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 4: and restrict law abiding gun owners, because we know the 120 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 4: bad guys just simply don't care. 121 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 2: But in this case, you have a guy who's here illegally. 122 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 4: And he's also getting a firearm issued by the state, 123 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 4: which he's you know, illegally not. 124 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 5: Allowed to have in a state, not to belabor the point, 125 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 5: but in a state where you have to jump through 126 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 5: so many hoops in order to get the type of 127 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 5: firearm that that illegal immigrant police officer had. 128 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 8: Well, guys, Freedom Friday, So let's blow your head a 129 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 8: little further. 130 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, I remember what they're talking about. 131 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 8: When they get to all the patriots they want to 132 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 8: rise up where he institute rule of law, and everybody's 133 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 8: talking about they're going to bring in foreign troops in 134 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 8: the UN and the observers and stuff like that.

With the continuing 322 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 4: resolution and the need for the sixty votes, in which case, 323 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 4: you know Democrats would just do what they're doing right now, 324 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 4: install it and not allow it to go through. 325 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 2: I could be wrong, but that's my assumption on I'm just. 326 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 5: Confused about how a government and shutdown would impact the 327 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 5: vote in Congress. 328 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 2: It doesn't. 329 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 5: It's not like because the government is shut down you 330 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 5: have every Democrat congressman has physically disappeared. 331 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 10: There is a lot going on in the background with 332 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 10: ways that states can circumvent Obamacare in certain ways. I'd 333 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 10: encourage him to look into that, because I do think 334 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 10: a vote would never go through, But there are lots 335 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 10: of things happening in the Trump administration and CMS and 336 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 10: those different agencies that are giving people a lot more freedom. 337 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 2: Well, and the. 338 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 4: Whole shutdown right now is based off of just really quick, 339 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 4: we'll get back to the to the no name given 340 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 4: ID and a couple of talkbacks that rolled in regarding 341 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 4: the illegal immigration stories we were covering with the one well, 342 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 4: the one individual who was the who was the truck 343 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 4: driver who had no name given on his idea and 344 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 4: then we had the ICE arresting and illegal immigrant law 345 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 4: enforcement officer in Illinois, but Matt Dean has a piece 346 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 4: up at American Experiment dot org. I've been holding onto 347 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 4: this all week, but it's basically focused on Amy Klobashar 348 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 4: and how Ami Klobishar wants to have a debate on 349 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 4: healthcare fairness. This is all regarding the shutdown, and as 350 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 4: Matt Dean says, he's like, bring it on. As the 351 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 4: shutdown continues, focus remains on the temporary Pandemic Era Obamacare 352 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 4: subsidies for those that make more than four hundred percent 353 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 4: of the federal poverty guideline for a family of four. 354 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 4: That's one hundred and twenty eight six hundred dollars a year, 355 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 4: and it represents twenty two thousand people in the Obamacare 356 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 4: marketplace in Minnesota, meaning ninety nine point six percent of 357 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 4: Minnesotan's would not be impacted by the loss of the subsidy. 358 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 4: And this is just one of several Obamacare and COVID 359 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 4: era subsidies that the Democrats continue to keep the government 360 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 4: shut down over. 361 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's one of those things where I think 362 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 5: people forget that Obamacare in and of itself, the mandate 363 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 5: portion of it was removed a while ago, right, so 364 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 5: you actually took out this kind of force into the 365 00:17:54,960 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 5: marketplace provision of Obamacare. But it's a fundamentally broken system 366 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 5: and we do have to do something about it. And 367 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 5: if there's any leeway for the Trump administration to defund 368 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 5: it or circumvent it in this moment of chaos. 369 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 2: I'm all for it. 370 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 5: Obamacare was a trillion dollar windfall for the healthcare industry. 371 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 5: It costs Democrats the mid terms in two thousand and ten, 372 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 5: and it's the real Obamacare is the reason our system 373 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:26,479 Speaker 5: was broken. 374 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 2: In Minnesota. 375 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 5: We always had this kind of fallback pool if you're 376 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 5: uninsured or what have you. 377 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 2: We always were protecting those people. 378 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 5: The idea that we solved the problem that didn't exist 379 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 5: in Minnesota. 380 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: That's that's the truth. 381 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 4: Let's get so one more talkback relating to the immigration 382 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 4: and driver's license issue we were discussing, and then we'll 383 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 4: turn our attention over to fraud. As I mentioned, medicaid providers, 384 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 4: eight hundred sketchy Medicaid providers Minnesota has now cut off, 385 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 4: but I guess we're still paying for the fan patients 386 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 4: they were helping. Also, Governor Tim Walls, in a recent interview, 387 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 4: said he's confident of a smooth rollout of the paid 388 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 4: family medical leave on January first. 389 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 2: So I don't know about you, guys. I feel better now. 390 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 5: Oh well, he's earned that because everything else we've ever 391 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 5: rolled out has been super smooth. 392 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 2: They can't even launch a website. 393 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 13: Good Morning, John and team on Freedom of Friday or 394 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 13: Rick in Virginia.

When you take that 486 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 5: two billion number and you actually think about, who are 487 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 5: the masterminds behind some of this, Who are the career 488 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 5: criminals that have gotten involved in this, who are the 489 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 5: savvy operators I'm guessing I'm guessing you could probably double 490 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 5: or triple that number. And if you triple that number, 491 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 5: you're talking about we have a six billion dollar deficit 492 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 5: in this state and maybe maybe all of it, maybe 493 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 5: all of it is fraud. 494 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 10: Well, these are the cases that really grind my gears, 495 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 10: the ones where you look at this ven diagram and 496 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 10: it's like the same company is providing services to children 497 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 10: with autism and people that need to find homes out 498 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 10: of you know, out of jail, or it's like these 499 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 10: completely disparate things. Why didn't no one catch this on 500 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 10: the front end because they can try and claw back 501 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 10: this money, but most of it is gone. 502 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 4: Well to that point, let me we have the Minnesota 503 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 4: cutting the eight hundred sketchy medicaid providers, and we'll i'll 504 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 4: get to this. I'm going to move another story up 505 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 4: to the up in the stack here, Catherine Johnson, since 506 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 4: you brought it up. Alpha News has an extensive piece 507 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 4: out this morning Jenna Globe reporting the same Burnsville Strip 508 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 4: mall space once used by a man convicted in Minnesota's 509 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 4: largest fraud case, is now home to a taxpayer funded 510 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 4: adult daycare that has already received more than one million 511 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 4: dollars just last year alone. Now, I'll I'll jump to 512 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 4: the end of this just briefly and say that as 513 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 4: of right now, they've not been accused of anything, and 514 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 4: DHS says they've actually looked at this place. However, when 515 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 4: we get into the details of the story, what you're 516 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 4: going to find out is like Jena Globe went to 517 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 4: this location where they're supposed to be providing all these 518 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 4: services like a few times, and there's just the person 519 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 4: working there. There's nothing going on inside of the of 520 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 4: the building whatsoever. And it raises all the questions that 521 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 4: we've already been talking about on the show. Who is 522 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 4: turning potentially a blind eye to all of all of this. 523 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 4: The storefront at fifteen oh one Riverwood Drive houses the 524 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 4: Nall Wall Restaurant. This is operated by Abdullah Kadir Awale, 525 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 4: who pleaded guilty in the two hundred and fifty million 526 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 4: dollars Feeding Our Future scandal. Awala admitted to using his 527 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 4: restaurant to file fraudulent meal claims for children who never existed. 528 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 4: Immediately next door is a second business. This is the 529 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 4: Bashi Adult Daycare, Inc. This was registered in sweet one 530 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 4: sixty under Owally's name state finaling show. It's unclear whether 531 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 4: the restaurant ever fully closed after the Feeding Our Future scandal, 532 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 4: but DHS later revoked the adult day care's license in 533 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 4: June of twenty twenty three, after the state had already 534 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 4: paid the business nearly one hundred thousand dollars. 535 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 2: According to state records. 536 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 4: Let me back up here just briefly, and we'll bring 537 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 4: in ak Kamara on good Morning aka. 538 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 7: Good morning no relation. 539 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 14: Abdul the Wale i'm at vudachman Maga Kamara known as 540 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 14: ak Kamara, so. 541 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 2: Business owner, business owner. 542 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 4: You watch the Precarious State documentary and wherein they highlight 543 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 4: going through the areas of Minneapolis that used to be thriving, 544 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 4: and there's all these empty storefronts. Kyle and I my 545 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 4: youngest we went to go see tront Aris for the 546 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 4: second time on Imax at Rosedale and you know, in 547 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 4: the the Imax theater there, And. 548 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 2: Was there an adult daycare in the movie theater? No, 549 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 2: but there were a bunch. 550 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 4: Of empty storefronts where last time we were there they 551 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 4: were businesses there. I only bring this up with regard 552 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 4: to the story because you have these seemingly legitimate businesses 553 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 4: that are folding, going elsewhere. 554 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 2: Simply can't operate. 555 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 4: And yet here you have these particular services, these businesses 556 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 4: that were under investigation involved in fraud, and yet they 557 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 4: continue to remained through all of it and continue to 558 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 4: receive state funding. And again there is no direct correlation here. 559 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,640 Speaker 4: As I mentioned at the end of the story, DHS 560 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 4: has looked into it. They don't seem to have been 561 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 4: found to be fraudulent at all. But I mean, red 562 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 4: flags are just going up all over the place. 563 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 14: Yeah, so yesterday or the day before when the Fraud Committee, 564 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,719 Speaker 14: it might have been even three days before. 565 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 7: When they had their hearing. 566 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 14: Kristin Robbins, representative and chair of that committee, brought up 567 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 14: the fact that she did some digging through some nonprofits 568 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 14: nine nineties and some of them one hundred percent of 569 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 14: their funding came from the government. 570 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 7: That's a huge red flag. 571 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 14: If you create a nonprofit you have no other donation 572 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 14: source other than the government, that to me is like 573 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 14: a huge red flag that you're probably doing fraudulent things. 574 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 14: And when you see Main Street Minnesota, Main Street America businesses, 575 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 14: you know, failing because of Democrat policies, but then you 576 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 14: see one sector of one ethnic group thriving, and you 577 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 14: have all of these other pieces. Listen, I was born 578 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,959 Speaker 14: at night, but I wasn't born last night. And I 579 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,959 Speaker 14: think that it's incumbent upon those in power to actually 580 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 14: create structures and guardrails to be able to stop the fraud. 581 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 14: I had this conversation when John and I we spoke 582 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 14: at Senate District forty five fundraiser, and I told people, 583 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,959 Speaker 14: I said, listen, this isn't just like a somalis are 584 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,959 Speaker 14: bad type of thing. That's a preposterous statement. We are 585 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 14: individuals God created us as individuals. But the idea that 586 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 14: you create this entire incentive structure forced themalies to take 587 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 14: advantage of it. 588 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 7: Of course they're going to. 589 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 14: And that's really what's at the bottom of this is 590 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 14: that the more that we pretend that this isn't happening 591 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 14: as a society and our elected officials, the more fraud. 592 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 7: Is going to occur. 593 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 14: Because why wouldn't it If I was in the same situation. 594 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 14: You know, myself is my values, I would say no. 595 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 14: But when we set low bars, don't be surprised when 596 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 14: people don't even. 597 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 7: Meet that low bar. 598 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 14: If you set a high bar, people aren't going to 599 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 14: meet it all the time, but it's going to be 600 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 14: significantly better than if you set a low bar. 601 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 4: A Burnsville property owner who spoke to alphin News and 602 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 4: the condition of anonymity and said he grew suspicious of 603 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 4: the adult daycare center after months of driving past an 604 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 4: empty parking lot. He's like, I stopped there three times 605 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 4: in about six months. There was just one person behind 606 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 4: the counter. I asked about enrolling my eighty five year 607 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 4: old mom, and every time they said we're full, we're full, 608 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 4: but there's no one there. 609 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 2: It's downright disturbing. 610 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 5: He even said when he offered to pay privately, the 611 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 5: staff declined. 612 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 4: Nothing ever moved inside that place. It all seemed so 613 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 4: staged and faked. Now alf The News spoke with the 614 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 4: businessman who operates several establishments the daycare facilities. Several established 615 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 4: daycare facilities, excuse me about how such programs typically function, 616 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 4: and he said, well, he could not comment on Bashie specifically. 617 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 4: And again, as the September twenty twenty five, the Bashie 618 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 4: Daycare Center has received about one point two million in 619 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 4: state payments to your point AKA according to DHS. He said, 620 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 4: it would be highly unusual for a licensed provider receiving 621 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 4: that level of state funding to appear empty or near empty. 622 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 2: Our participants are with. 623 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 4: Us six to eight hours a day, doing various activities. 624 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 4: It keeps them engaged and gives caregivers a break. That's 625 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 4: the whole point of adult day care services. When asked 626 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 4: what kind of activities typically take place, he mentioned arts, crafts, bingo, trivia, dancing, 627 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 4: walking around the facility. 628 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 2: It sounds like a freedom Friday. 629 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 4: He added that after launch, participants sometimes get tired. 630 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 2: It wouldn't be uncommon for them to be relaxing. 631 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 4: But if they're sitting in a chair doing nothing for 632 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 4: two straight hours, that's typically not the best for seniors. 633 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: I want to want to hang on. 634 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 5: You go ahead, imagine to the point of that story. 635 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 5: Imagine the dread you must feel if you're running a 636 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 5: fraudulent adult daycare operation and an actual potential customer comes. 637 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 7: We do, Oh no, what have we ever done? 638 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 2: What's the procedure? 639 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 7: Panic? 640 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 4: The daycare center lists robust hours of operation seven am 641 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 4: to seven pm, seven days a week on its website. 642 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 4: The center advertises benefits for participants, including daily exercises, creative 643 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 4: arts classes, bingo, music, entertainment, cooking, baking, and educational. 644 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:24,959 Speaker 2: Groups and discussions. 645 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 5: And again, according to that one guy, if you wanted 646 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 5: to go and do like an investigation and bring somebody in. 647 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 5: According to the ladies sitting up with the counter, they're full. 648 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 5: They're full. Apparently. 649 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 4: Alpha News visited the facility multiple times on weekday mornings, 650 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 4: but observed none of the activities advertise on the website. 651 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 4: On Monday, ten am, a reporter saw a small front 652 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 4: room with a counter, two couches, and a table. About 653 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 4: a dozen older women sat quietly with no visible activities, 654 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 4: screens or books. Staff told reporters there were no openings, 655 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 4: but offered to place their aim on. 656 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 7: A wait list. 657 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 4: Around eleven thirty, Often News again observed six to ten 658 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 4: older women sitting in chairs with the television audible in 659 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 4: the background, but no visible. 660 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,239 Speaker 5: Engagement or staff interaction. And then on Friday at ten 661 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 5: forty five am, the doors were locked. No one appeared 662 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 5: to be inside. 663 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 4: A photo at the time showed an interior dark, empty, 664 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 4: with no staff participants visible. Now, before I move on 665 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 4: to this next part of it, anybody else want to 666 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 4: add well, I got everybody's got sap. 667 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 10: Okay, I just want to point out what Ak said 668 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 10: is an extremely good point because if you have a 669 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 10: nonprofit that gets one hundred percent of its money from 670 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 10: any one source, that is completely corrupt. And if you 671 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 10: have a board of directors that's allowing that to happen, 672 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 10: that's really a derelictive duty. Okay, So the government. One 673 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 10: thing the Minnesota government would could do max years is 674 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 10: not me, is they could they We're not going to 675 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 10: give to nonprofits that only get one hundred percent of 676 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 10: their funding from the government. You have to have at 677 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 10: least fifty percent from others'. 678 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 7: Shutting out half of them right from the show. 679 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 10: It has created the system where all of these people 680 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 10: get their paychecks from nonprofits that are getting all. 681 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 2: Of their money from the government. 682 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 10: So then we have a system of people who rely 683 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 10: on the government, like some sort of Medicare Medicaid system, but. 684 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 2: That has none of the checks. 685 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 10: They just get the free money from the government to 686 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 10: pay their salaries and there's no checks. 687 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 2: I have a content idea, right, this is what I 688 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 2: wanted to say. 689 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 5: John and Ak are trying to build their brands on 690 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 5: the Chinese buyware app. 691 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 2: Okay, so here's what we do to start. Here's what 692 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 2: we do. 693 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 5: We get John and some makeup, all right, we make 694 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 5: him look a little bit older than he is. 695 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 2: It's gonna be hard to do, all right. And then 696 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,280 Speaker 2: we drive around to adult day care centers. 697 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 5: Ak is his son or his nephew and say, I 698 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 5: want to sign my elderly you can see how old 699 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,360 Speaker 5: he is. I want to I want to sign up 700 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 5: my elderly uncle for this adult day care center. 701 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 2: Will you accept me and get reactions. 702 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 14: That would that would be really good because like, technically, right, 703 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 14: my mom is white. 704 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 15: They have a white uncle uncle Jack, So we don't 705 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 15: talk about Uncle Jack. No, he's awesome man. He lives 706 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 15: in Montana. He's a mountain man. But he's a Democrat. 707 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 7: Listen. I was just gonna say this. 708 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 14: Maybe maybe these adult daycare providers have developed this brand 709 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 14: new technology that allows them to teleport, and so they 710 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 14: actually are keeping everyone in this parallel dimension and so 711 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 14: they can save on space. 712 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 4: I think the more logical answers they're just receiving all 713 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 4: of their money from the government and have no need 714 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 4: to have to bring anybody in. 715 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 2: They were asked by the way. Alpha News said. 716 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,360 Speaker 4: The Bashi Daycare Center responded to inquiries through an attorney 717 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 4: who said the business is legitimate operating normally. Abdul Kadir 718 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 4: Awala has no connection with the Bashi Daycare Center. He 719 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 4: said the company is open operating during his normal business hours. 720 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 4: Eddy reports of the contrary, if they exist, are not accurate. 721 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 4: The attorney also confirmed the ownership breakdown and said the 722 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 4: company's were properly. 723 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 2: Updated with the state now. DHS records do show. 724 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 4: In June a routine inspection of the daycare center result 725 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 4: in a correction order with six citations. This range from 726 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 4: missing medical reports to incomplete care plans to outdated participant records. 727 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 4: Inspectors gave the center thirty to sixty days it could 728 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 4: go and correct those problems. And as I said in 729 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 4: the before, in the story it says, DHS says that 730 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 4: they've confirmed, no, you know that there's been nothing at 731 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 4: fault here regarding this particular place. It's that it reviewed 732 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 4: the sites licensing history, ownership disclosures, and business filings when 733 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 4: processing the new application. 734 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 2: But think about this too. 735 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 10: For every nonprofit group like this that is so blatantly 736 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 10: committing fraud, there are how many more that are less 737 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 10: blatantly committing with fraud. They're over billing, they're doing the 738 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 10: legitimate services, but they're doing smaller things to skim more 739 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 10: money off the top from the taxpayers. 740 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 4: So this talkback came in with an interesting question, and 741 00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 4: this is where I kind of wanted to take to 742 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 4: take this and then I want to I want to 743 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 4: talk about the cutting the medicaid providers but keeping the 744 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 4: payments rolling for the fantom patients. Let's go here really 745 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:09,479 Speaker 4: quick on the iHeartRadio app. 746 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 16: Yeah, somebody's training these people how to commit this fraud. 747 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 16: And I bet you they're in exchange for money or kickbacks. 748 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 4: So let me let me pose it a different way. 749 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 4: This is the part of it that that I continue 750 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 4: to sort of wrap my head around, is there is 751 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 4: so much fraud going on how and so many different entities, 752 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 4: and it is not just you know, you have demographics 753 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 4: that are involved, but it's not just that demographic either, 754 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 4: and certainly wasn't the case when you go back to 755 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 4: feeding our future. And that's the part of it that 756 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 4: really sticks out to me is how is it that 757 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 4: there's so many people in so many different areas of 758 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 4: society here in Minnesota and they're all conducting this level 759 00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 4: of fraud. 760 00:37:58,640 --> 00:37:58,879 Speaker 7: Yeah. 761 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 14: So I I employ this strategy based off of my 762 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 14: experience with people that come from the Somali community. I 763 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 14: was an insurance agent for years and it's very tightly knit. 764 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 14: I wrote one family and then they brought in their 765 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 14: friends and basically, at one point, like I don't know, 766 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 14: twenty five percent of the business that I was writing 767 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 14: with Somali. But I had to train that population of 768 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 14: my clients that I'm not here just to take your money. 769 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 14: I actually want to write good insurance. So I would 770 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 14: sit down and I would do a review of their 771 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,759 Speaker 14: assets all these different things, verify who actually owns and 772 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 14: is titled on the property and vehicles. Now, I say 773 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,280 Speaker 14: this because there are plenty of insurance agents that don't 774 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 14: do that. And to the point that the company that 775 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 14: I worked for had written so many Somali policies that 776 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 14: did not actually do their due diligence that our entire 777 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 14: loss racial suffered for the entire state. And what that 778 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 14: means is that for like every dollar we took in 779 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:58,399 Speaker 14: as a company, we were having to pay out nineteen cents, 780 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 14: so we were losing. So we'd have to take that 781 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 14: dollar one hundred percent of it's gone and we'd have 782 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:07,280 Speaker 14: to pull from another pot nineteen cents. Because that community, again, 783 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 14: what just talk. They're close knit. Now I imagine if 784 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 14: you go and do the same thing. Because they're so 785 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 14: close knit, they say, hey, we got set up with 786 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 14: this one program and as long as you just file 787 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 14: your paperwork correctly, no one's going to check on you. 788 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 14: So it's like, cousin, do this, friend, do this, do this. 789 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,439 Speaker 14: It's already a tightly knit community. And I think that's 790 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 14: what's really going on. I don't think that there's like 791 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 14: some puppet master behind the scenes having secret meetings, because that. 792 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 7: Would be easy to shut down. You just need one 793 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:35,439 Speaker 7: person to roll over. 794 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 14: Well, it's just that instance, is what I think it is. 795 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 4: It would be easy to shut down if DH. If 796 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 4: people with DHS immediately when they saw the massive spike 797 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 4: in the amount of money they need to go and 798 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,839 Speaker 4: send to these programs began to start questioning it. 799 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: You know. 800 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like you know, dropping a dropping a rock 801 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 4: in a pond and just the ripple effect over a 802 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 4: relatively short period of time. Let's get you a few 803 00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 4: few talkbacks that rolled in on the Iart radio app. 804 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 17: And we have a holist right next to us that 805 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 17: was empty for two years and was listed as a 806 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 17: fifty five plus adult assisted living. I've reported it, and 807 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 17: nobody's ever contacted me, nobody's ever gotten back to me. 808 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 17: Now all of a sudden, there's people living there, but 809 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 17: they sure's hacking fifty five plus. 810 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 7: That sounds like a job for me and John. 811 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 2: Oh speaking of us, Like I said, sing operation. 812 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 9: A Max Scott from Lyndstrom, Heck, I am old and 813 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 9: I do that with you. 814 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,720 Speaker 7: There you go, Max, you. 815 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 5: Scott, We'll have ak be the nephew Catherine.
