1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz has announced he is ending his

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: reelection bid amid the childcare frauds scandal. The governor announcing

3
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: he'll not seek reelection, and the accusations and the investigation

4
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: tied to that decision clearly a massive political fallout that

5
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:24,440
Speaker 1: even he thought he couldn't overcome. Governor Waltz announcing it

6
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 1: and saying that this was all because of the Republican

7
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: Right ring and a conspiracy theory. I'm not joking. But

8
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: before we get to that, here is how it was

9
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 1: announced on Fox Business Channel. Minnesota's Governor Tim wals He

10
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: has dropped out. He's dropped his bid for reelection. He

11
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: will not seek a third term in office.

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 2: What did he say?

13
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 3: The multi billion dollar alleged Somali daycare and medicaid fraud

14
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 3: scandal was consuming while's writing this. Every minute I spend

15
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: defending my own political interests would be a minute I

16
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 3: can't spend defending the people of Minnesota against the criminals

17
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: who pray on our generosity and the cynics who pray

18
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 3: on our differences. So he has dropped his bid for

19
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 3: a third term, but the fraud could still imperil Senate Democrats.

20
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 3: Senator Tina Smith will not seek reelection in Minnesota, so

21
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 3: that race is open, and Senator Amy Klobachar is viewed

22
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 3: as a top contender for governor to replace Walls.

23
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,839
Speaker 1: Now, what's also interesting about this is Governor Waltz announcing

24
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: this saying, quote he wants to focus on governance and

25
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: not campaigning. He said it's essential. In other words, I'm

26
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: the good guy amid the ongoing controversies in the state.

27
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: Walt emphasized that leading Minnesota through the quote unquote crisis

28
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: that he created of fraud and ensuring his administration's response

29
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: deserves full attention from the governor, not divided focus between

30
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: governing and campaigning. He also made it clear that this

31
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: is really, somehow all the fault of Republican and that

32
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: this is what it really came down to.

33
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 4: We've got conspiracy theorists, right wing YouTubers breaking into our daycares,

34
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 4: demanding access to our children. We've got the President of

35
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 4: the United States demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongfully confiscating

36
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 4: funds that Minnesotans rely on. It's disgusting and it's dangerous.

37
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: What's so interesting about what Governor Waltz said, there is

38
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 1: what the real headline should have been. Governor Waltz, almost

39
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 1: the vice President United States of America now dropping out

40
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: of the governor's race in Minnesota in disgrace. And why

41
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: not because of people trying to break into daycares demanding

42
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: access to our children. No all because a brave twenty

43
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: three year old kid with an iPhone and a thirst

44
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: for justice exposed billions and billions of the governor's fraud.

45
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: The work of Nick Shirley hopefully has created a thousand

46
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: more Nick Shirley's just like him, who realize that the

47
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 1: government is broken, as well as the media apparatus which

48
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: is supposed to hold it accountable. But Governor Waltz wasn't

49
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: done there. He also wanted to play the victim card

50
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: one more time by saying this, I.

51
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 4: Don't want to mince words here. Donald Trump and his

52
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 4: allies in Washington and in Saint Paul and online want

53
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 4: to make our state a colder, meaner place. They want

54
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 4: to poison our people against each other by attacking our neighbors,

55
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 4: and ultimately, they want to take away much of what

56
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 4: makes Minnesota the best place in the country to raise

57
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 4: a family. They've already begun trying to withhold funds that

58
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 4: were meant to help families afford childcare, and they have

59
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 4: no intention of stopping there. Make no mistake, we should

60
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 4: be concerned about fraud in our state government. We cannot

61
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: effectively deliver programs and services if we can't earn the

62
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 4: public's trust.

63
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: Public trust us Tim Waltz leaving office because he has

64
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: no trust in him from the public and knows he

65
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: can't get reelected, yet at the same time saying his

66
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: entire administration is about exactly that. He can rewrite history

67
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 1: all he wants, but Tim Waltz will go down in

68
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: disgrace as a former vice presidential candidate who just months

69
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: later has to suspend his reelection campaign for governor because

70
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 1: of the billions and billions in fraud that were uncovered

71
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: under his watch. Which brings us to the final part

72
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: of this story, and it deals with the media. The

73
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: same media that did not uncover this fraud, that looked

74
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,720
Speaker 1: the other way, that had countless whistleblowers that came to them,

75
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: and they would do very little stories and then immediately

76
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: not dig anymore and move on. Now they're acting like

77
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: they want to do their job. I wish I was joking.

78
00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: Reporters actually got upset, audibly upset with Governor Waltz after

79
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 1: or he left the press conference announcing that he wouldn't

80
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 1: seek reelection without answering any of their questions. The media yelling,

81
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: we thought you were going to take our questions. The media,

82
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: the same media that covered for Waltz, is now wanting

83
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: you to believe that they're trying to get to the

84
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: bottom of something that took a twenty something year old

85
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: with a cell phone to expose it all. Take a

86
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: listen to the self righteous media lying to you on

87
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: TV during the breaking news.

88
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 4: I'm proud of the way we treat our neighbors. I'm

89
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 4: proud of the way that we welcome people to this state.

90
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 4: I'm proud of the way that we innovate, and I'm

91
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 4: proud of the way that we are optimists for the future.

92
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 4: No one's taking this away from us, not the fraudsters,

93
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 4: certainly not this president, not on my watch. Tomorrow, I'll

94
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 4: be back with you. I'll give you an update on

95
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 4: America's best paid family medical leap program that is now

96
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 4: a week into it, and at that time, I'll take

97
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 4: all your questions Thank.

98
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: You all appreciate it. Thank you.

99
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 3: Wow.

100
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: Why didn't you.

101
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 3: Nill.

102
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: You can hear the anger. You can hear them talking.

103
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: You can hear them question members of the government there

104
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 1: that worked for Governor Waltz, and they're all upset because

105
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: he was supposed to answer their questions. These are the

106
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: same reporters, the same ones, the very same ones that

107
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: look the other way for years as this fraud was

108
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 1: going on right before them. But now they want separation

109
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: from the governor as his ship is going down, and

110
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: they want you to believe that they're doing their job,

111
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: even though clearly they never were in the first place.

112
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: Two thousand federal agents are being deployed to Minneapolis. Yes,

113
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: I didn't say Minnesota. I said Minneapolis, as an escalated

114
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: immigration push is underway. Here is what we know so far.

115
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: The two thousand federal agents being deployed to a city

116
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: as part of the Trump administration's latest effort, they say,

117
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: to crack down not only on immigration but also on

118
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants that they're committing crimes. City officials, of course,

119
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: are angry over this. Why because they've been exposed for

120
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: the welf of fraud scandal that has reached a fever

121
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: pitch this past week in Minneapolis. Now, in the day

122
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 1: since that conservative content creator, a brilliant twenty something with

123
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: a cell phone, took down the governor for his oversight

124
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: with the fraud, the creator has raised new allegations of

125
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: fraud as well. Of course, the left is saying there's

126
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: little evidence. If that was true, then why did the

127
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: governor say he wasn't running for reelection. The Somali run

128
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: daycare centers in Minneapolis are a problem, and the Trump

129
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 1: administration has also moved forward and has frozen federal childcare

130
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: funds and at least more biting rhetoric against the Somali

131
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: community for the fraud that they have been doing in Minneapolis.

132
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: President Trump not backing down. The President stepping up immigration

133
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 1: enforcement as well, and federal agents have already been on

134
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: the ground in Minneapolis, and both Immigration and Customs Enforcement

135
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: agents and the US Port Patrol agents are deploying in

136
00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: record numbers now. Agents in Minneapolis. On Monday they arrested

137
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 1: more than one hundred and fifty people accused of being

138
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: in the country illegally, The Department of Homeland Security saiday's

139
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: Tuesday's statement. The release highlighted nearly a dozen detainees the

140
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 1: DHS called the worst of the worst, with charges like murder, robbery,

141
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: probation violations, drug violations, and again, one of the most

142
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: important things is this, they're now no longer terrorizing the

143
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: people in Minneapolis. DHS posted an edited video on x

144
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: showing the Secretary Christy Nome following armed agents into a

145
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: three story building in Saint Paul. Why was it so

146
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: important because it was a place where legal immigrants were

147
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: committing crimes and running their crimes out of the building.

148
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: Secretary Nome and our brave DHS law enforcement have taken

149
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 1: Tomas Tabia off the streets, an Ecuadorian illegal alien convicted

150
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: of robbery and wanted for murder and sexual assault. To

151
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: the criminals living a mine us, you are not our neighbors,

152
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: leave now or we will find you. Of course, they

153
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: don't want to tell you that part of the story.

154
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: They don't want to tell you it's from Ecuador and

155
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: not Haiti, right, because they want this to be some

156
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: sort of racial issue. The fact of the matter is

157
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: Department of Home and Security doesn't care where you're from

158
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: if you're in the country legally and committing Hana's crimes

159
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: like robbery, extortion, warrants out for murder and sexual assault. Now,

160
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 1: this is just one individual that was caught because of

161
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 1: the people going in and fighting hard to make sure

162
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: that we're all safe. We also know that there are

163
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 1: more ICE raids that are happening right now. Heavily armed

164
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: ICE raids on fraudulent scammers happening all over the country

165
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: is what ICE and the Department of Homeland Security are

166
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: telling us about. Even local news covering the story Fox

167
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: five in Minneapolis saying this a major surgeon.

168
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 5: Federal agents are expected here in Minnesota on top of

169
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 5: what we all have already seen in recent weeks, the

170
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 5: Trump administration escal its immigration crackdown in the Twin Cities.

171
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 5: Ox Stein's Marin Glover here now to explain what these

172
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 5: agents will be looking for, Mari.

173
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 2: While the officers and agents started arriving yesterday in the

174
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 2: first major expansion of President Trump's immigration enforcement efforts in

175
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:20,680
Speaker 2: the new year. Since early last month, federal ICE agents

176
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 2: have been in the Twin Cities to crack down on

177
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 2: immigrants who are in the country illegally. Now, a new

178
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: wave of federal agents will expand on that work and

179
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 2: help root out fraud. According to reports, the White House

180
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 2: has already started sending an additional fifteen hundred ICE agents

181
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 2: to the Twin cities to track down people who have

182
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 2: deportation orders. On top of that, six hundred agents from

183
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 2: Homeland Security investigations will focus on identifying fraud in the

184
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 2: Somali community. Ali. We've arrived to ABC Learning Center. The

185
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,440
Speaker 2: thirty day surge operation comes after a viral video from

186
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 2: right wing influencer Nick sha Surely claimed Somali run daycarers

187
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 2: were receiving federal subsidies but no children were present. The

188
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 2: Minnesota Department of Children, Youth and Families said it conducted

189
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 2: compliance checks at nine of the ten facilities featured in

190
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 2: the video. One facility closed in twenty twenty two, and

191
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 2: investigators said children were present at all the sites except

192
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: one that was not open for the day when inspectors arrived.

193
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: The mission's going to continue no matter what.

194
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 2: US Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bavino, who has led immigration

195
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 2: roundups in other cities around the country, is expected to

196
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 2: arrive in Minnesota to help with the surge here, along

197
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: with a number of Border Patrol agents. Now, the Department

198
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 2: of Homeland Security says it is arrested over a thousand

199
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 2: criminal undocumented immigrants Minnesota in just the last few weeks.

200
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: In just the last few weeks, which brings up the question,

201
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 1: why would you not want this type of law enforcement

202
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: happening in your city. Well, it's clear Democrats are hope

203
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 1: to import illegal immigrants, even if they are criminals, even

204
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 1: if they're wanted for drug trafficking, sex trafficking, human smuggling,

205
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 1: or murder. They don't care as long as they set

206
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: up in a city where liberals can be elected by them.

207
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,079
Speaker 1: US Customs and Border Protection commander, whose tactics have come

208
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:23,239
Speaker 1: under quote increased scrutiny in multiple cities, is also expected

209
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: to deploy to Minneapolis, showing that we are not afraid

210
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: of liberal Democrats. The war that's being waged against Minnesota.

211
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: You're seeing it. That is the response from Governor Tim Waltz.

212
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: That's what he said at tuesday's news conference. We have

213
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 1: a ridiculous surge of apparently two thousand people not coordinating

214
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: with us, that are for a show of the cameras. No,

215
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: we're actually arresting the bad guys, Governor, And you would

216
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,079
Speaker 1: know this if you actually cared about your citizens instead

217
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 1: of illegal immigrants from Somalia. Uncertainty, of course is House

218
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: and puts it as sweeping Minnesota's largest city as the

219
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: fraud allegations prompt shakeups in local leadership and a new

220
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: ambitious immigration enforcement effort by Donald Trump intimidating, as they described,

221
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: with the Somali residence that has emerged. This again another

222
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: example of the Left caring more about illegal immigrant criminals

223
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: than they actually care about citizens in this country, which

224
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 1: brings me to another story. It's all about following the money,

225
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 1: especially in the Somali community. We're now being told that

226
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: Somalia's ambassador to the United Nations is linked to Medicaid fraud,

227
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: not in Minnesota, but in Ohio. As this continues to

228
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: explode around the country, the permanent representative Somalia to the

229
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: United Nations, a man by the name of Ashman, is

230
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: linked to a home health care agency in Cincinnati, Ohio

231
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: that has been prosecuted for Medicaid fraud. Officials with the

232
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security and AHHS have now confirmed. This week,

233
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: online reports began circulating that Ausman had ties to Progressive

234
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: health Care Services. It is a home health care company

235
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: plagued by a Medicaid fraud investigation. HHS Deputy Secretary Jim

236
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: O'Neil confirmed via x that Osman is in fact linked

237
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: to the Progressive health Care Services and that the federal

238
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: agency previously took action against the home healthcare company after

239
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: a conviction for Medicaid fraud, saying this, I can confirm

240
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: public speculation that Ambassador Assman, the permanent representative of Somalia

241
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: to the UN and President of the Security Council, is

242
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: in fact associated with Progressive health Care Services, a home

243
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: healthcare agency in Cincinnati. AHHS is previ taken action against

244
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: Progressive in response to a conviction for Medicaid fraud. So

245
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: if you think that this is just going to be

246
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: an issue in Minnesota, you are wrong. Now. O'Neil's statement

247
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: came after the account Libs of TikTok posted several documents

248
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: for porting to show Osmond's ties to Progressive Healthcare. What

249
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: is amazing about how this story continues to unravel, not

250
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: just in Minnesota but now in Ohio another place around

251
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: the country is men and women are doing the job

252
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: that the journalists of this country are supposed to be doing,

253
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: but the journalists are not doing their job. For one

254
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: reason their partisan hacks. State sponsored media of the Democratic

255
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: Party quote Somalia's ambassador to the UN Osman was a

256
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: healthcare administrator in Ohio. There's another healthcare company in the

257
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: same suite as his, with a different name, and multiple

258
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: others at the same address, all with Somali names. The

259
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 1: account wrote on acts his company was convicted of Medicaid

260
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: fraud while he worked in a Medicaid office in Ohio.

261
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 1: The account wrote, Now, why is this Somali ambassador the

262
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: UN working in the healthcare system in the US is

263
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: another question that many of you should be asking. The

264
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: company not only was convicted of Medicaid fraud while he

265
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: was working in that Medicaid office in Ohio, but wait,

266
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: there's even more. The NPI for Somalia's you an ambassador's

267
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 1: healthcare company is on an exclusion list with the code

268
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: one one two eight A one. What does that mean?

269
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: It means the company has been convicted of Medicaid and

270
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 1: Medicare crimes. This is who is overseeing security now at

271
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: the United Nations. He was also a supervisor, so to

272
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: act like he didn't know what was going on or

273
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: it was someone underneath him is also a lie. The

274
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: post shows a LinkedIn for Ossman where it lists him

275
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: as the managing director of Progressive Health Services from October

276
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: fourteenth to May of nineteen, around the same time the

277
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: company was investigated for Medicaid fraud. Just to give you

278
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 1: more context about the corruption. So the next time the

279
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: United Nations starts wagging their finger at the Security Council,

280
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: just know it's the same dude that was involved in

281
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: healthcare fraud, defrauding Americans in Medicare and Medicaid. And of course,

282
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: this story that I'm talking about right now, there's a

283
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: very good chance you've heard about it nowhere else at all,

284
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 1: Which brings me to another interesting point that needs to

285
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: be made. Waltz dropping out is a very real allegation

286
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,360
Speaker 1: of corruption, and it is out of the political arena.

287
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 1: That's at least how one Democrat is describing it. Pau

288
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 1: Bagala on CNN admitting this about the corruption.

289
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 6: Ask you, because I do. You're our Democrat here. And

290
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 6: with the news out of Minnesota, the governor Tim Walls

291
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 6: is dropping out of the governor's race because of a

292
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 6: welfare fraud scandal on his state that is only intensified.

293
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 6: There's been a lot of action there from when Biden's

294
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,239
Speaker 6: in office but's still going on. Do you think that

295
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 6: was the right move by Governor Jim Walls.

296
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 3: I do.

297
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 7: I do, because look, third terms never go very well anyway.

298
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 7: And the Democratic Foreign Labor Party there, the DFL, the Democrats,

299
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 7: they have a very strong bench. Amy Klovicharg's very popular senator,

300
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 7: is thinking about running, according to reports. Evan't spoken to her,

301
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 7: but I'm sure she is. Keith Ellison, the attorney general's popular,

302
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 7: Steve Simon, Secretary of State. Meanwhile, the Republicans, oh, my gosh,

303
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 7: they have a pillow fight on their side, right with

304
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 7: the Speaker of the Minnesota ask the my pillow guy

305
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 7: is running. So this is actually good news for the

306
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 7: Democrats because it also takes this very real allegation of

307
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 7: corruption in childcare and it takes it out of the

308
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 7: political arena. Right. Republicans can't make hay off of that.

309
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: Believe me.

310
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,719
Speaker 7: There's a special place for anybody if they're stealing from children,

311
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 7: vulnerable children, and that place is in prison here and

312
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 7: in hell in the next life. But I don't think

313
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 7: Democrats need to take any lectures about corruption and fraud

314
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 7: from Donald Trump. Oh he settled a twenty.

315
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: There we go. There it is the Democratic Party now saying, well,

316
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,479
Speaker 1: it's dropping out takes very real allegations of corruption out

317
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:20,680
Speaker 1: of the political arena, so we shouldn't be taking lectures,

318
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: as they describe it, from Donald Trump after billions of

319
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: dollars have been stolen from the tax payers. Of course,

320
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,160
Speaker 1: lowering expectations, Begala said, third terms never work, so that's

321
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: another reason why we should just move on from this,

322
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: and somehow says this is back to Donald Trump, right,

323
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: He's settled to fraud case once in New York City,

324
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: so therefore that's what we should really be looking at. Democrats,

325
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 1: he said, don't need to take lectures about corruption or

326
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: fraud from Donald Trump. So, in other words, let it

327
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: keep happening, and if a Democrat gets caught, fine, what

328
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 1: we'll do is we'll just act like it's really not

329
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: a big deal. Which brings me back to the original story.

330
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: These federal agents surging in Minneapolis to crack down on

331
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 1: immigration and fraud is exactly what the president should be doing.

332
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: Democrats are terrified of two thousand people there doing their jobs.

333
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 1: Of course, Governor Walt saying, well, they're not coordinating with

334
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: us you won't know why, because you've declared your sanctuary state.

335
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 1: You've declared that you will not work with ICE. You've

336
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: declared that you believe that ICE is an evil group

337
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: of people. You've dehumanized them, you've turned them into your

338
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: bad guys. And so yes, they're not working with you. Yes,

339
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: there's no coordination because you chose to go after ICE

340
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: and said the illegal immigrant criminals. And if you look

341
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: at who's being taken off the streets, that's what really

342
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 1: this should be all about. There are men and women

343
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: committing Hainus crimes, stealing from Americans. We should all be

344
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: outraged over that, as Paul Bagawa described it, We should

345
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: all be angry, and we should want there to be

346
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 1: more accountability. We also know that Trump is using Minneapolis

347
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: to send a message to all the other fraudsters in

348
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: the country. The Department of Homeland Security describing what is

349
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: happening in Minneapolis this way as the largest immigration enforcement

350
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: operation ever aimed at cracking down on illegal immigration and fraud.

351
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: Federal officials and DHS also emphasizing the scale and the

352
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: intensity of this operation is a major enforcement action. The

353
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:40,959
Speaker 1: surge includes personnel from ICE and Homeland Security investigations, bringing,

354
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: they say, broad federal resources to the region where crime

355
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 1: is out of control. DHS highlighting today that some of

356
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: the people arrested includes serious offenders ascribed by the Department

357
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: as among the worst of the worst, individuals with records

358
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: for violent crime like murder and sexual assault of children,

359
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: and DHS also launched a worst of the Worst web

360
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 1: page so the public can see the criminal histories and

361
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: those arrested nationwide as part of the immigration enforcement, underlying

362
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 1: that many apprehended individuals have violent or dangerous criminal records.

363
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 1: Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nome personally being president in Minneapolis

364
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: and accompany the agents during the enforcement actions, showcasing federal

365
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: leadership and involvement as well as the commitment to get

366
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: rid of this fraud in America, and the reports are

367
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 1: also indicating at this hour that additional federal agents beyond

368
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: the original surge are continuing to arrive, meaning the reinforcement

369
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: and the ongoing commitment to the enforcement of the law

370
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 1: in the community of Minnesota will not only make the

371
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,199
Speaker 1: people safe there, but this is all about getting rid

372
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: of what the Democrats set up a safe haven for

373
00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: billions in fraud. Some Minnesota report. Publicans and supporters of

374
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 1: federal enforcement efforts have also praised the operation, saying that

375
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: they're seeing the surge is something that was long overdue

376
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 1: and making the streets safer where they live. So in summary,

377
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 1: the Trump administration's operation in Minneapolis represents a significant federal

378
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 1: law enforcement mobilization we've never seen before, at a level

379
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: we've never witnessed before, with a focus on arresting, as

380
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: the White House put it, individuals with serious criminal histories

381
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: and enforcing immigration laws which the prior administration refused to

382
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 1: do as well as Governor Waltz DHS has highlighted the

383
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 1: tangible arrests of dangerous criminal suspects, active federal leadership on

384
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: the ground, and increasing the manpower, as well as making

385
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: it clear who we're arresting on the web page they've

386
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:59,479
Speaker 1: set up. This is exactly why I voted for Donald Trump,

387
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 1: and I got a feeling there's a lot of people

388
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis that maybe didn't vote for Trump that are

389
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: now saying, Wow, maybe I voted for the wrong team

390
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 1: in the last election. Quick Break Ben Ferguson's show More
