We found a hotel in California where every room was the headquarters for a nursing group. They were all PO boxes, not actually providing nursing care. They were just collecting money. As we now know, a lot of the money that was going into the Somali community for autism care went to these phony autism care houses. A lot of it ended up with al Shabaab in Somalia.

The documentary-style segment follows Nick Shirley and David as they investigate widespread fraud in Minnesota, centering on nonemergency medical transportation (NEMT), daycare operations, and the way state funds are billed for services that may not be delivered. They present a pattern where transportation companies appear to underpin multiple fraud schemes across childcare, adult daycare, autism services, and interpreter services, with transportation acting as the “belly of the beast” that ties these lines of fraud together. Key findings and claims include: - The investigation asserts that Minnesota’s NEMT sector is dominated by Somali-owned companies. David notes about 20 NEMT companies in Minnesota, with more than 90% Somali-owned, many hosted in addresses that appear noncommercial or vacant (an apartment, a house, a convenience store, or a vacant building) with little or no signage or staff. - The group argues the average national vehicle count per NEMT company is 20. They estimate Minnesota could have approximately 800 Somali-owned NEMT companies, each with about 20 vehicles, and claim payments from the state are based on electronic submissions of trips and miles, with trips typically paid at about $50 per trip (round trips $100). They contend many trips are never performed, yet payments are made once the electronic form is submitted, with no verification of actual service delivery. - The symposium of fraud is described as consisting of daycares, adult daycares, autism services, and other welfare providers that rely on the transportation brokers to create a paper-trail justifying payments to the providers, even when services aren’t delivered. This paper trail allegedly enables continued state funding for many supposedly operating centers. - Safari Transportation (607 Cedar Avenue South, Minneapolis) and Dreamline Transportation (617 Cedar Avenue South) are presented as examples of fraudulent listings: Safari Transportation is alleged not to exist at the listed address; Dreamline Transportation is said to be housed in a liquor store at 617 Cedar Avenue South, with multiple addresses showing confusing or false registration. On-site checks reveal no functioning transportation company or vans, and staff acknowledge the addresses are misleading. The reporting team notes that the listed addresses often correspond to other, non-transport businesses (e.g., money-wiring shops or liquor stores), with no observable fleet and no evidence of active transportation services. - They visit other addresses tied to transportation, such as Epimonia Transport (at 305/308 area) and Crescent Transportation in Saint Louis Park; Epimonia is described as lacking vehicles and consistency in address listings, while Crescent Transportation is found to be an apartment complex rather than a storefront, casting doubt on the legitimacy of these entities. - The Hopkins Child Care Center is highlighted as an example of large state funding for a facility licensed for 118 children, with reported funding of around $2.25 million for a given year and millions across multiple years, yet the center is observed as shuttered or lacking visible child activity, with many vehicles reportedly idle and windows blacked out. Similar patterns are noted at other daycare centers such as Quality Learning Center and Proud Child Care Center in Eden Prairie, which also show high funding receipts (e.g., $1.9 million for Quality Learning Center in a given year; Proud Child Care Center receiving about $1.25–$1.26 million in recent years), but with no apparent foot traffic or detectable enrollment. - The investigation connects the fraud to political actors and public officials, alleging cover-ups or complicity, and raises questions about accountability for figures like Tim Walz. They assert that investigations and governmental actions have been insufficient or misdirected to address the alleged fraud. - In a broader fraud narrative, they claim millions of dollars were being funneled through TSA at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, with whistleblowers recounting large sums (often in the millions) moved by Somali-descent individuals, sometimes via routes through Atlanta to Dubai before wiring money to Somalia. A former TSA narcotics investigator describes routine cash movements at checkpoints, suggesting that declarations of large sums did not trigger meaningful enforcement, and implying the funds were linked to the daycare and welfare networks described earlier. Throughout, the speakers attempt to confront individuals at various sites, record responses, and juxtapose the alleged abundance of funding with the lack of visible services or vehicles. They emphasize that even when fraud is spotlighted, participants often respond with hostility or denial, while security is required to manage confrontations. They conclude with a call for accountability and reforms, asserting that the fraud spans the entire state and that transportation companies are central to the ability to sustain fraudulent payments.

Speaker 0 gave the FBI a thumb drive containing 29 minutes of high-definition video showing two men attacking a building. As of this morning, neither man has been arrested. Speaker 0 states that despite going through over 725 indictments, none of their video or even a single still picture of either man has appeared on the Internet. The FBI is allegedly refusing to take Speaker 0's calls, return emails, or accept an offer to meet. Speaker 0 believes the FBI is hiding these men. Speaker 0 asks Speaker 1 to inquire about the identities of these men. Speaker 0 confirms that Ben Grundler has all this information and that they have been in contact for over a year.

Speaker 0: A quiet building in Signal Hill, California, is described as not resembling the headquarters of hundreds of trucking companies. Federal records show nearly 700 freight companies tied to this single address, with roughly 500 listing the same email: WTF FMCSA@AOL.com. CRAX reported this exact address to federal regulators two years ago. The speaker asks, If we all know about it and we reported it, why is something not being done?

A truck driver reports that 51 trucks, all headed to deliver supplies to areas devastated by Hurricane Helene, had their tires slashed while at a truck stop. The speaker notes that only the trucks carrying hurricane relief supplies were targeted, while other trucks at the same location were left untouched. The speaker questions whether others find this suspicious.

Elizabeth describes a pattern she’s seeing in Portland, Maine that mirrors what’s been found in Minnesota: the use of zombie offices and large clusters of home health care businesses operating from a single location to defraud Medicaid. She notes that among the businesses registered in the Portland area, of the 20-something identified, about 10 are home health care providers. She cites specific examples, including Prestige Home Care, Bright Star Home Care, Atlanta Community Support, Five Stars Home Health Care, and Prime Home Care LLC, as part of this trend. Elizabeth emphasizes that this clustering is a tactic previously observed in Minnesota, where the Minnesota House Oversight Committee on Fraud described it as a giant red flag, pointing to large groups of health care providers located in one building as problematic. She points to a particular building in Portland as evidence: inside this building, 22 different home and community-based health care companies are registered, illustrating the concentration of providers within a single address. Ron Nevins, the building owner, agrees to speak with Elizabeth about what’s inside. He is asked about how many health care companies occupy the space. He responds, “I think I got 10 health care companies, which is probably about half, maybe a little less than half of this building.” He repeatedly references “health care, health care, health care, home health care,” underscoring the focus of the tenants. Elizabeth probes the legitimacy of these businesses, asking whether they are all legitimate. Ron Nevins replies partially: “Some, yes, but some I highly question.” His comment reflects uncertainty about the fidelity or legality of the operations housed in the building, aligning with the concerns raised by the Minnesota case. In summary, the reporting highlights a pattern of many home health care providers co-located in a single Portland building, mirroring Minnesota’s findings of clustered health care entities as a potential red flag for Medicaid fraud. The account cites specific companies and notes substantial occupancy by home health care firms, while also acknowledging doubts about the legitimacy of some of these businesses according to the building’s owner.

A documentary-style investigation in Minnesota accuses widespread government-funded fraud across childcare, elder care, and health care services, alleging that hundreds of millions (potentially billions) of taxpayer dollars were funneled to fraudulent businesses, many run by Somali-owned entities, with insufficient or no evidence of actual children or patients being served. Key figures and setup - David: An investigator whose office is in Minneapolis, claiming firsthand exposure to fraud. He frames the problem as deeply entrenched, involving billions of dollars and potentially ties to terrorist groups abroad. - Nick Shirley: The presenter and filmmaker, documenting the investigation, confronting daycare centers, health care providers, and government officials. Main fraud allegations and examples - Childcare and early learning centers: - Multiple Minneapolis daycares listed at the same addresses, licensed for large capacities (e.g., 120 children) but with no children present in long-running site visits. - Examples include Mako Childcare and Mini Childcare Center: combined licensing for 120 children, but vans never moving and no children observed over repeated visits; fiscal year payments ranged from about 714,000 to over 1.6 million dollars for the two centers in various years. - ABC Learning Center and other nearby facilities: windows blocked out, doors locked, no children observed despite licensing for dozens or hundreds of children; payments in the hundreds of thousands to millions per year. - Sweet Angel Childcare and others: similar patterns—license capacity reported, payments received, but no children seen; in one case, ongoing operation with no obvious play area or evidence of childcare. - The video notes cases where two daycares share addresses or switch names (e.g., Creative Minds Daycare reopens as Super Kids Daycare Center) yet continue to receive state funding, suggesting “fraudulent” billing. - Some locations claimed to be open long hours and to serve many children, yet on-site visits found no children, locked doors, or hostile responses when questioned. In one instance, a staffer refused to discuss the operation or provide paperwork. - Specific sums cited include ownership of facilities with payments like 1.26 million, 987 thousand, 714 thousand, 1.6 million, 1.3 million, 1.0–1.6 million in various fiscal years, totaling near several millions per site and aggregating toward millions across multiple centers. - Home health care and other services: - A building housing 14 Somali-owned home health care companies under many different names, all operating from the same location, raising concerns about service provision and billing. - A broader claim that in Minnesota, 14–22 Somali health care businesses at the same address are part of the same ecosystem; government money (state and federal CCAP funding) is disbursed to these entities, with a perception that services may not be rendered as billed. - A separate building contains numerous health care providers; the interviewee asserts that 50–60 million dollars per year could be fraudulently routed through this single building. - Overall scale and claims: - David asserts the fraud is “far worse than anybody can imagine” with estimates initially as high as 7 to 10 billion, later revised publicly to around 8 billion; in total, a major portion of the state budget is implicated. - A central claim is that funds from CCAP (a blend of federal and state money, taxpayer money) are written as checks to providers who may not deliver corresponding services; the state’s checks are allegedly not effectively cross-checked for actual service provision. - Political and procedural dimensions: - The investigation contends that Minnesota governor Tim Walz is responsible for allowing or failing to curb fraud, describing the state as “ground zero” for the issue and criticizing political and procedural inaction. - The documentary frames fraud as nonpartisan, noting Medicaid fraud occurs across parties and administrations nationwide, but then presents a partisan friction as they confront lawmakers at a state Capitol hearing. - At the Capitol hearing, Republicans and Democrats discuss fraud, with some speakers asserting the problem is nonpartisan and rooted in systemic issues across administrations, while others push to hold specific leaders accountable and emphasize the need for transparency and enforcement. Confrontations and outcomes - The team encounters resistance and hostility at several sites, including doors locked, hostile staff, and in one instance, a confrontation resulting in police involvement at a building housing healthcare providers. - The investigators claim to have faced intimidation and even threats; they describe instances of violence toward them for asking questions about child and elder care fraud. - The film documents a tense, complex landscape of allegations, aiming to connect misallocated funds to non-delivered services, with ongoing investigations, raids, and political debate as the state capital becomes a focal point for accountability discussions.

The investigation highlights potential fraud or serious irregularities in Somali daycare operations, based on observed signs such as windows not covered with vinyl and a lack of signage or children visible at purported day care locations. The team questions the existence of many day cares, noting that some places listed as licensed have no identifiable activity or occupants when visited. Speaker 2 argues that even if a daycare were legitimate and serving only two children, there is “no world” where the government should be giving almost a million dollars or three-quarters of a million dollars in subsidies to such a place. The discussion underscores how fraudulent claims can be made easily and points to a lack of visible accountability in the system. The agency responsible for overseeing and funding daycares is identified as the Washington State Department of Children, Youth, and Families, with Secretary Tana Sen named as the head of the agency being discussed. To contact leadership, the team attempts to reach the communications department led by Nancy Gutierrez, noting repeated efforts to obtain comment about suspicious Somali daycares. They report multiple attempts to call and email, with messages indicating that some numbers are unavailable and voicemails are full. Speaker 0 notes the difficulty in getting a response from DCYF’s top communications official, emphasizing that their mailbox is full and no responses have been received. This lack of contact is framed as convenient for avoiding questions about the alleged issues. Speaker 6 states that if fraud is confirmed, a forensic audit should be conducted to trace how much money was actually spent and to recover any funds. Speaker 7 suggests that, even in the best-case scenario, the situation is inefficient and a waste of taxpayer dollars. Speaker 8 adds that there is a prevailing attitude in Olympia that does not recognize the problem.

There are chickens in the building where Walmart smokes them in Loretta, Tennessee. The silos can also explode. The fire department is present but not taking action.

A WFA investigation revealed trucking companies are using fake addresses to evade federal oversight. Many companies register at virtual mailbox locations, which is illegal because the FMCSA requires a real physical address where records can be inspected. One building in California has nearly 700 freight companies tied to it, with roughly 500 using the email wtffmcsa@aol.com. FreightValidate reported these issues but questions why action hasn't been taken. The FMCSA stated the address is a legitimate business address for a motor carrier consultant, but regulations state a motor carrier cannot designate the office of a consultant if the motor carrier is not engaged in operations at that location. While some owner-operators may use virtual addresses legitimately, fraudulent carriers have much higher crash rates. The FMCSA is now using facial recognition to verify new applicants, but this doesn't address existing fraudulent companies. FreightValidate believes focus should be on who is operating the company, not who is behind the webcam.

The FMCSA flags applications with virtual addresses with warning letters. While not everyone using a virtual address is fraudulent, it is common among "bad actors." Fraudulent carriers have 80% higher crash rates. The FMCSA is now using facial recognition to verify new applicants, but this only applies to newcomers.

The video documents a visit to what is alleged to be Halauli Childcare Center in Kent, Washington. Speaker 0 asks, “Hi. Is this is this Halauli childcare?,” and is told, “No. No? There’s no childcare here?” They respond, “No childcare. Okay. God. Thank you so much. Have a good one.” The clip repeats, “There’s no childcare,” and notes that they were at Halauli, described as “what’s allegedly Halauli Childcare Center in Kent, Washington,” which is “right behind me right here.” The speaker says they went to the door and mentions that the exact address listed on the state website shows the center receiving over $800,000 in 2023. The closing remark reiterates, “They claim there’s no child care here.”

A truck driver with two and a half years of experience states that in disaster situations, truckers usually get more loads. He checked a load board called Truck Stop within 125 miles of Asheville, North Carolina, but found no loads. He then searched within 250 miles of Chicago, Illinois, to Asheville, North Carolina, and found only dollar 40 a mile loads that nobody is taking. He also checked within 250 miles of Nashville, Tennessee, to within 125 miles of Asheville, North Carolina, and found very few loads. He says that he is not a conspiracy theorist, but asks what is going on. He states that brokers have called him asking if he has seen any FEMA loads going to the Carolinas or Georgia, and that there are none. He says that one broker with six years of experience has spoken to other brokers who are saying the same thing.

Speaker 0: Massive fraud is going on here in the state of Minnesota, especially in Minneapolis. Explain to me what's going on with the day cares. Speaker 1: One of the things I've noticed is there’s an exceptional number of childcare centers set up mostly in Minneapolis, but also in Saint Paul. I wondered how many kids are there in the Twin Cities. I visited facilities near my office and saw there aren’t any kids there. I’d go to another one and there aren’t any kids there either. I spoke with someone outside who said, “We’re all full,” yet when I looked inside the door was open and there was a couch and a table with a couple chairs and no kids. I asked if the kids were outside playing or what kind of place this was, and the staffer said, “You go,” and followed me down the street to my car. That made me think something was going on, and this was maybe five years ago. Speaker 1: This fraud is so massive. When the dust settles on this, it’s going to be found to be the largest fraud in the history of the country and probably the world. The ones I’ve gotten data on average about $2,500,000 a year, and a lot of them will say they have anywhere from 80 to 120 children. Speaker 1: I’ve been to literally 40 or 50 of these childcare centers, and there never has been a single child at any one of them ever. Morning, afternoon, evening. Some say they’re open till 10:00 at night. I go there in the morning, I go there in the afternoon, I go there at 9:00 at night. Nobody. There are no kids there ever.

Following a fatal crash in Terrell, Texas, involving a Hope Trans truck and resulting in five deaths, WFANA reported on the trucking company's practices. The driver admitted to falling asleep at the wheel. A former Hope Trans driver revealed the company pressured drivers to exceed the legal driving limit of eleven hours a day, falsified records, and backdated bills of lading. He was instructed to hide original paperwork. Hope Trans is under scrutiny for listing a virtual address in federal records instead of a principal place of business, which should house driver and safety records for unannounced inspections. After the crash, the company changed its address to an apartment in Orlando. WFANA uncovered numerous trucking companies using virtual addresses, some sharing the same email. Federal regulators are reportedly "working on it," and Governor Abbott has asked the Texas DPS to expand its investigation.

Chaya from Lives at TikTok explains she investigated an unmarked building in Burnsville, Minnesota, where nine health care companies are operating out of a single location, all with Somali names. She notes there are likely more than the nine discovered. One of the entities is Grace Care Center, run by Saeed Ahmad, which the site claims has a facility for kids with autism. She reports numerous red flags on that site, including slogans like “We cure your chill,” and suggests it is aimed at offering care for children. When contacting the listed numbers for these businesses, many do not work: some ring endlessly, others are disconnected. Most of the companies do not have websites, reviews, or additional information available. One company at the location does have a website, but it contains many spelling errors. The site’s gallery uses stock images that do not lead anywhere. Other links on the site do not function, redirecting back to the homepage. The “About Us” section states it was founded by Omar, accompanied by a stock image of a white woman, even though Saeed Ahmad is the founder. The contact information is described as fake, including a fake address, phone number, and email address. Chaya emphasizes that the situation appears highly suspicious.

In Columbus, Ohio, in front of the Great Minds Learning Academy, one of several day care centers associated with the Somali community, speakers discuss a report by Nick Shirley about fraudulent daycare facilities in Minneapolis. They note this is the second-largest Somali community in the United States and intend to investigate further. The team attempts to visit the first center, knocking and ringing the doorbell, but no one answers and the door is locked. They speak with a local man who says the daycare is owned by Somalians and mentions that he has never seen children there, noting that the center “use[s] the back door,” so they don’t see anyone coming in or out. He lives in the same building and confirms that he has not seen kids at the location. Another speaker reiterates, “I’ve just seen it the building itself. I’ve never seen nobody come out the building or go into the building.” The group proceeds to the back of the building, as suggested, but finds nothing there. They decide to move on, noting there are many more centers to visit, and plan to go around the city to speak with people at additional locations. They sign off with a plan to continue the investigation and stay tuned.

We found 10,000 people using the same Social Security number. They are brought in illegally and given a number to pay taxes. Companies hire them across various plants and factories, all using the same number. The IRS only checks if there's an employer associated with the number, validating it. These individuals then use the number to obtain driver's licenses, leading to voter suppression. The government ignores this issue and these individuals don't pay taxes, as companies deduct them. The government has a $1.7 trillion slush fund, generating $100 million in interest monthly. This information is unsettling, revealing a corrupt system benefiting everyone involved.

Speaker 0 visits a location in California described as “home to a porta john and a giant empty parking lot,” yet inside this empty lot there are “registered voters.” He states that there are “26 registered voters for this exact location. 100 Sunset Avenue in Venice. 26 people registered to a porta john and an empty parking lot. Where do their ballots go exactly? So who's picking up the ballots? Who's voting for the people in this lovely porta john empty lot? Ask the question.” He concludes, “I think you know the answer.”

A report from Minnesota describes nonemergency medical transportation (NEMT) businesses that operate vans seen sitting in the snow and reportedly never moved. Neighbors say these vans haven’t moved in months, with snow built up around them. The segment states that Minnesota has over 1,020 NEMT companies, and 90% of them are Somali-owned. It claims that each of these businesses collects over $1,000,000 a year in taxpayer dollars by moving people with medical needs, according to the report. Neighbors say the vans “never leave” and that the situation amounts to “massive fraud,” while the reporter asks for viewers’ thoughts on the issue.

A building in Signal Hill, California appears to be the headquarters for nearly 700 freight companies, according to federal records. Approximately 500 of these companies share the same email address: WTFfmcsa@aol.com. CRAX reported this address to federal regulators two years ago. The speaker questions why no action has been taken despite the report.

Following a fatal crash involving a Hope Trans truck hauling USPS mail, questions arose about the company's safety practices. The driver allegedly fell asleep, and the truck's registration was reportedly fake. USPS rules require team drivers for trips over 500 miles, but the driver was alone on an 800-mile route. A former Hope Trans driver claimed he drove a USPS load from Atlanta to Phoenix alone and warned Covenant Logistics, who contracted Hope Trans, about the company's practices. He alleged Covenant "brushed it off." He and another former driver said Hope Trans backdated shipping records to allow drivers more time and instructed them to hide original paperwork. One driver stated there was a code, "I need a cup of coffee," to get more drive time. Hope Trans had a "severe risk" score of 50.25 from Blue Wire, a trucking safety analysis company. A 2024 USPS audit found the postal service didn't always know who was authorized to transport mail. Hope Trans initially listed a coworking space as its address, then changed it to an Orlando apartment after the crash. Former drivers said Hope Trans "doesn't care about rules" and they feared a crash. Hope Trans has not responded to requests for comment.

The speaker observed numerous FEMA trailers in a parking lot 3 hours away from the mountains. They questioned the presence of the FEMA trucks in that location.

People in Houston dropping off plastic might assume it goes to a recycling center, but bags with Apple trackers ended up at Wright Waste Management. Drones revealed piles of plastic waste stacked over 10 feet high. Storing plastic outside in the heat is a fire problem. Documents show Wright Waste Management has failed three county fire safety inspections. As of the date of filming, the company had applied to store plastic waste but had not been approved.

We are at an undisclosed facility in Tucson, Arizona, investigating the activities of the organization Elitas. They have been accused of using racial slurs and hiding their badges. We encounter resistance from the staff, who refuse to answer our questions. We witness buses transporting migrants to airports and encounter an Uber driver who confirms their involvement. We also speak with a person named Jorge, who denies any connection to Elitas. This investigation sheds light on a facility that operates under the radar, receiving millions in federal funding.
