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.

Can you name some NGOs that have received significant funding but haven't used it to protect children? Catholic Charities, Lutheran Family Services, and Jewish Family Services were mentioned. I spoke with someone from DHS who handles electronic fund transfers. He revealed that he oversees Jewish Family Services and recently issued a check for $600 million. When I asked if that was for three years, he clarified that it was actually for just two to three months and is renewable.

Abdi, running for Minnesota House District 14A, owns Blooming Kids Child Care. The speaker highlights a long list of alleged violations at Blooming Kids, including: - No first aid kits - Unsanitary conditions - Not complying with CPR regulations - No supervision for the kids - Not operating within the terms of their license - Never submitted their DHS background study when requested - Children subjected to prohibited disciplinary actions - No furnishings, no equipment, no materials, and no supplies - No documents to show that the teachers were qualified to do the job - Repeated violations: same violations happen over and over - No immunization records for any of the children - Not enough staff The speaker notes they cannot determine how much state or federal funding Blooming Kids receives because that information requires access they don’t have. Regarding campaign fundraising, the speaker checked Abdi’s campaign donations and states he is not getting any from any day care centers. The speaker concludes by asking someone to tag Nick Shirley, suggesting he should look into this issue as well.

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.

Prosecutors have identified billions in Medicaid fraud across 14 programs, and researchers have now found a fifteenth area: assisted living. In Minnesota, the assisted living program is expanding faster than other programs, with payments rising 10 to 15 times as fast. Data on area facilities show Minneapolis has 169, Saint Paul has 83 (population 307,000), Brooklyn Center has 106 (pop. ~30,000), and Brooklyn Park has 181 (pop. ~84,000), highlighting a higher concentration of facilities in smaller cities. The assisted living facility in question is housed in what appears to be a single-family home, yet it bills itself as an assisted living facility and receives substantial state funding. The facility is owned by Gandhi Mohammad, now Gandhi Abdi Qadai, through his LLC, and his wife runs the assisted living services. The state continues to pay while he awaits trial. The report notes that this man was indicted in the Feeding Our Future scam, which involved false billing, and asks why he is still receiving state funds through these facilities. Speakers discuss whether Feeding Our Future indictments should trigger a cross-check to prevent individuals involved in that scheme from receiving other state funds. One speaker asks, “Do you know the Feeding Our Future scandal?” and notes the lack of awareness among people being interviewed. It is stated that the man who owns the building was indicted in Feeding Our Future, and that his shell company was used to purchase a new assisted living facility property, with his wife operating the service provider side. The facility received over 2,300,000 in state money last year, and a Minnesota reformer article claims the person has been paid 49,000,000 since 2016. The interviewees question how it is possible that someone indicted in Feeding Our Future is still collecting checks from the state through these assisted living centers run by his wife. State Representative Kristen Robbins, chair of the House Fraud and Oversight Committee, expresses concern that basic due diligence was not performed to cross-check Feeding Our Future defendants against other state funding. The parties reached out to the man and his wife but have not heard back. They also contacted the Department of Human Services, which stated that they cannot cut funding from this person because he is “simply a landlord,” with his wife running the service provider arm of the facilities. The department’s position is described as passing the buck.

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.”

Can you name some NGOs that have misused funds meant to protect children? Catholic Charities, Lutheran Family Services, and Jewish Family Services were mentioned. I spoke with a DHS employee who handles electronic fund transfers. He revealed that he oversees Jewish Family Services and has issued a check for $600 million. When I asked if that amount was for three years, he clarified that it was actually for just two or three months, and it’s renewable.

There's a serious problem in New York with Governor Hochul's plan to overhaul the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP), which helps chronically ill and disabled individuals hire caregivers, often family members. Hochul wants to consolidate the $9 billion initiative under a single financial intermediary, Public Partnerships LLC (PPL), a Georgia-based company with no New York healthcare experience. PPL was allegedly chosen before the bidding process even began, despite numerous failed contracts and financial issues in other states like Pennsylvania, where it cost the state millions. This move could benefit union leader George Grisham by further unionizing home caregivers. It also threatens to shut down 600 companies and impact half a million New Yorkers. Even Democrats like Congressman Richie Torres are questioning this deal, especially given PPL's track record of failure.

The speaker discusses concerns about day care providers in Minnesota who are allegedly violating federal and state laws and regulations. The core allegations include taking money for personal use, using funds to set up fraudulent child care clients, and providing kickbacks. The speaker notes that not just a few cases exist but 23 child care centers are either closed or under investigation. He states that the fraud may reach as high as $100,000,000. Specific financial figures are provided: in fiscal year 2018, Minnesota received $120,000,000 in federal funding, and the state contributed about $50,000,000 in matching and maintenance funds. The speaker contends there may be a fraud case of nearly $100,000,000 in Minnesota, with the money then being transferred out of the country via MSP Airport. He emphasizes that this is a major issue in Minnesota. The speaker then asks what the agency is doing to investigate these matters and whether there could be stricter enforcement to monitor states receiving these funds, to ensure there is oversight. He expresses gratitude for the testimony and yields back, addressing Mister Lewis.

Today, we're investigating where government funds for migrant kids are going. Nonprofits receive billions, with CEOs like Chip Fulghum making $600,000. Endeavors spent $500,000 on music, pet, and plant therapy for kids. Another nonprofit, Southwest Key Programs, led by Dr. Anselmo Villareal, received over a million. Despite issues like sexual abuse charges and fund misuse investigations, they still received $800 million in contracts from the Biden administration.

The speaker describes a pattern of fraud concentrated in clusters rather than in isolated, large-scale operations. The fraud appears to occur within family groups or tightly connected networks, spreading across multiple small sites rather than a single, massive operation. These clusters involve using single apartments, single condos, or potentially a single-family home outside of Boston, effectively creating numerous small daycare facilities. The speaker notes that the capacity of these clusters is not as high as it might be in other regions (e.g., Minnesota). As a result, fraud operates at a large number of smaller sites rather than a few large ones. The implication is that there may be more individual perpetrators overall, but each site commits fraud on a smaller scale. This distributed approach contrasts with a hypothetical scenario in which one building or site would generate a multi-million-dollar fraud; instead, the speaker expects many buildings each contributing smaller amounts, culminating in a broader spread of fraudulent activity. A key factor driving this pattern is the very low barrier to entry for opening a daycare, which facilitates a large number of potential operators and, consequently, a higher overall opportunity for fraud. The speaker emphasizes that this low barrier makes it easier for fraudulent actors to multiply across numerous small locations, contributing to a wide but shallow trafficking of schemes. The speaker explains the financial impact and mechanism of the fraud: the state is subsidizing payments for these kids, but the fraud involves both the daycare and the parents allegedly claiming that children attend the daycare when they do not. In reality, the parents certify attendance, while the daycare providers and the parents are allegedly splitting the subsidized funds. As a result, taxpayers bear the burden of subsidizing services that are not actually being provided to the claimed attendees. In summary, the described fraud occurs in clustered groups, leveraging many small daycare operations (often housed in single residences) with a very low entry barrier, leading to widespread but not individually vast fraud. The purported scheme involves falsified attendance to obtain state subsidies, with the daycare operators and some parents allegedly sharing the ill-gotten funds.

Can you name some NGOs that have received significant funding but haven't used it to protect children? Examples include Catholic Charities, Lutheran Family Services, and Jewish Family Services. I spoke with someone from DHS who handles electronic fund transfers. He mentioned that he oversees Jewish Family Services and has issued checks totaling $600 million. When I asked if that amount was for three years, he clarified that it was actually for just two to three months and is renewable.

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.

HHS employees are tasked with reuniting children with sponsors, but they often encounter fake documents and inadequate verification processes. Instead of thorough checks, they rely on Google searches to validate IDs, which are often just photocopies. There’s no formal training on how to assess these documents. In one instance, a team discovered that an address they were sending children to was a strip club, revealing a serious oversight in the vetting process. Reports indicate that many children were placed in potentially dangerous situations, with alarming numbers sent to locations linked to trafficking activities. This raises concerns about the effectiveness of child welfare practices under the current system.

The transcript presents a long-form exposé-style investigation into what the speakers describe as widespread fraud in California’s caregiving sectors, focusing on hospice, home health care, and daycares, with emphasis on Los Angeles and Van Nuys. - Opening claim and context: - Speaker 0 asks why there is a thousand percent increase in hospice care in Los Angeles and whether paperwork exists to enroll a child named Joey. They claim California has the largest fraud risk, with Medi-Cal spending rising from 2022 to 2026 (from $108 billion to a proposed $222 billion) while population growth hasn’t matched spending growth. They allege “one out of every $10 of home health care in America is spent in Los Angeles.” They argue government-funded daycare programs are “filled with violations,” and that fraud could be “hundreds of billions of dollars.” - Daycare fraud focus: - The video claims daycares are used to receive government money (CalWORKS) by enrolling children on paper while not having real enrollments. They show various locations and describe conditions as suspicious or unsafe (graffiti, boarded-up buildings, dumpsters, a homeless person near a daycare). - Medina Learning Center is described as “now enrolling,” with “as their backup facility, the UMI Learning Center,” which was “convicted in federal court in 2024 of having a 150 ghost kids.” They seek paperwork to enroll a child named Joey. - Hayden Sarah Family Child Care is described as having “14 children enrolled” per state records but “zero present” when inspectors arrived; the facility roster and missing children records are cited as violations. - Jama Shukri Family Childcare is described as a daycare located in an apartment building (one-bedroom, eight capacity) with two children outside and no adult visible, raising concerns about supervision. - The video notes California allocates $6 billion to childcare, “over 39,000 facilities,” with a state audit error rate of 1.6%, and conservative estimates suggest “upwards of a $100,000,000 in fraud lost each and every single year.” - A recurring theme is “shell registrations” and unregistered CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) entities; seven of the four entities shown have “zero SMS data,” implying shell companies or fraud networks possibly connected to Armenian/Russian gangs. - Hospice and home health care fraud focus: - The group shifts to Van Nuys, California, claiming “home health care and hospice fraud” is pervasive there; they assert “one out of every $10 that goes towards home health care in the United States goes to a business here in LA.” They visit numerous hospice centers in a single plaza, naming Gardens of Angels Hospice and Blossom Hospice as examples of high billing with few services performed (e.g., Gardens of Angels: “billed $4,800,000 per beneficiary,” “$5,807 per claim,” 28.6 claims per patient, only two codes). Blossom Hospice is described as “$3,400,000” billed with “$927 per claim,” again with only one code and minimal services. - They claim “seven of the four entities have zero SMS data” and label some facilities as shell registrations; some locations appear “registering for hospice but not actually providing care,” with claims of “shell buildings” or storefronts that are empty or only used for billing. - The video notes the presence of luxury cars at these sites (Mercedes, Teslas, BMWs, a Cybertruck) and references a pattern of wealthy vehicles associated with hospice sites, suggesting profits from taxpayers’ dollars. - Miracle Healing Hospice is described as having billed $1,300,000 in 2023 with 38 beneficiaries: “$32,000 per beneficiary,” but the location was reported as an empty building when visited. - The presenters also describe finding a location that “received $19,000,000” over the past years for Healthy Life Adult Daycare, yet the building appears dilapidated and shows no adults present during visits. Phone lines and mailboxes are reported as failing to provide information or contacts. - Interviews and expert commentary: - A professional in the medical industry is interviewed to explain how fraud could occur: someone could obtain a Medicare number and use it to bill Medicare for hospice services; fraudsters reportedly can open a hospice license without being a physician, then bill the system and receive payments quickly. - The interview suggests Medicare numbers can be stolen or purchased; the speaker emphasizes that “anybody can get a hospice license,” and that the process enables easy billings to Medicare/Medicaid. - A participant describes a trend of these facilities opening and billing, with the implication that people exploit the system for swift returns. - Overall framing and conclusions presented: - The speakers argue that there is a thousand percent increase in hospice openings in California, a surge in fraudulent activity across daycares and hospice/hom e health facilities, and that tax dollars are funding these entities with little-to-no accountability. They juxtapose luxury cars and upscale appearances with empty or non-operational facilities to illustrate alleged misappropriation of funds. They advocate scrutiny, data-backed investigation, and accountability for what they describe as widespread fraud affecting taxpayers and vulnerable populations. - Closing sentiments: - The narrative closes with a call to action against fraud, emphasizing the impact on ordinary Americans who face rising costs and debt, and claiming that exposing fraud is essential to protecting taxpayer dollars and national financial health.

Speaker 0 asserts: I’m not suicidal. Any creator, politician, or celebrity who tries to make a film or documentary on CPS has wound up dead, including a senator. The November film will be their hardest hitting, and they will “rip the veil off” to the point where CPS shows up at your door. Our government is running the world’s largest child trafficking network. They emphasize they would never kill themselves, do drugs, or put themselves in dangerous environments; if anything happens to them, it is the United States government. They watched the first take of the film and say, “they’re gonna kill me.” They urge a trip down memory lane to discuss Pizzagate, stating this is where it all starts. Speaker 1 begins by saying the Pizzagate story has outrageous connections and promising brand-new whistleblower information that will blow minds. They provide an overview: back to Bill and Hillary Clinton, whom many believe to be child pedophiles. They say there’s never been direct evidence, but in 02/2016 WikiLeaks published Hillary Clinton emails with John Podesta showing coded language about a child trafficking ring centered in a Washington, DC pizza restaurant basement at Comet Ping Pong. Edgar Maddison Welch went to the restaurant with firearms to “liberate the children,” but no one was hurt; it was later said there wasn’t a basement, so the scandal was dismissed, though there’s more to the story. The transcript then ties Hillary Clinton to Laura Silsbee, who was involved in trafficking, and outlines a chain: Hillary Clinton and Laura Silsbee exchanged documents detailing logistics of trafficking children from Haiti to Boise, Idaho. Laura Silsbee had previously kidnapped several dozen children from Haiti and attempted to cross into the Dominican Republic; she was caught and the children were returned to their families. Shawnee M. King is cited for reporting on Silsbee’s case. Jorge Puello, an attorney for Silsbee’s group, was suspected of leading an international trafficking ring; Puello was arrested in investigations by ICE and Homeland Security; his wife faced charges of sexual exploitation of minors and women. The narrative claims Hillary Clinton and Laura Silsbee were connected; Bill and Hillary Clinton allegedly helped negotiate the release of Laura Silsbee and her accomplices after their imprisonment in Haiti. Speaker 1 then ties the connections to CPS: the number-one source of child trafficking is the U.S. CPS system, and the number-one gateway to sex trafficking in America is the foster care system. The foster care system allegedly lost over 100,000 children in the last twenty years, raised questions about where they went, and claims millions of children are abused in foster care by financially compensated foster parents and social workers. The Adoptive Safe Families Act (ASFA), championed by Hillary Clinton and signed by Bill Clinton in 1997, supposedly created and financed CPS/foster care by diverting Social Security funds to 50 states, giving a financial incentive to “kidnap” children. It is claimed that CPS targets poor and minority children and single-parent families, and that the system now functions as a government-subsidized child-trafficking ring. Speaker 1 lists correlations: CPS is a tool used to target conservatives; CPS offices get paid per child kidnapped; 83% of removals lack proof of abuse. The claim is that Hillary Clinton created the system and that Laura Silsbee, a friend of Clinton, is involved in Idaho’s CPS network. Laura Silsbee allegedly works with Idaho Department of Health and Welfare (IDHW) and is a registered foster care parent in Idaho, receiving monthly payments for children in her custody, as shown by whistleblower-provided screenshots. Idaho’s Attorney General Raul Labrador opened an investigation into IDHW financial misappropriations, but Idaho’s Department director Dave Jepison resigned and disappeared, and Judge Lynn Norton allegedly issued an order halting the AG’s investigation. The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare allegedly dominates Idaho’s budget, and Laura Silsbee’s role with IDHW is framed as proof of a nationwide system. The narrative concludes by warning Idahoans to beware of Laura Silsbee (aka Laura Gaylor), Judge Norton, and supporters of IDHW, asserting that the system extends to all 50 states, including Arizona, Texas, and Florida, which are described as among the worst offenders in CPS corruption.

The investigation into fraud in public daycare subsidies is described as massive and deeply obstructed. "Massive. They don't want a fraud unit to do anything. They want a fraud unit on paper." The discussion centers on Halicki, who was fired in 2013 while in the midst of a large probe. The county’s account of Halicki is that he was an insubordinate bully whose tactics hampered efforts to catch welfare cheats, while supporters call the firing part of a broader effort to suppress accountability. One side frames the situation as a cover up: “They don't wanna point fingers at various organizations and people. This is nothing but a giant cover up.” The reporting highlights deco daycare centers, with evidence that the company collected millions in public subsidies for providing bogus child care services to low income families. The overarching assertion is that, in essence, this scheme was a criminal enterprise. In December, Ramsey County charged the owner of Dico with fraud. The daycares shown are described as billing the county at rates over $100,000 a month. Halicki says that before his dismissal he was tracking a similar scheme in Hennepin County involving multiple child care centers. One building is noted as housing its third daycare center in as many years, with a new license granted despite concerns. The two previous centers had their public subsidies stopped by the county because of billing irregularities. Halicki recounts footage of centers with questionable visibility: “7AM to 6PM. There are no lights on.” He and the team visited centers that had no signs outside and, during posted business hours, no one answered. They checked state inspection records for each center on Halecki's tour, finding licensing violations—the kind that are red flags to the state's Department of Human Services. The core accusation is that this is a deliberate attempt by officials in Hennepin County to deceive taxpayers. Halicki claims to possess emails and documents proving knowledge of the wrongdoing and deliberate inaction. He cites an email to the supervisor of the fraud unit where the stated goal was to stop the bleeding quickly and protect taxpayer money from going out the door; the supervisor replies with a plan to tackle the centers, and Halicki reiterates, “It's nothing but a giant cover up.” Officials emphasize that the focus is on prevention, but they do investigate and take action with the county attorney when fraud occurs. In the two years since Halicki was fired, not one case has been prosecuted by the county. The report notes that most metro counties aren’t actively investigating daycare center fraud; instead, they’re handing those cases off to a DHS special team that was ramped up more than a year ago. Public frustration is voiced: “Nobody is more frustrated with the amount of time it's taking than we are.”

It's the morning of March 15, and the report centers on a tip about a man leaving the country with a carry-on bag packed with a million dollars in cash. Sources say he just cleared security with that bag, and that such cloak-and-dagger scenarios now happen almost weekly at MSP International. The money is usually headed to the Middle East, Dubai, and beyond, with sources claiming that last year more than $100,000,000 in cash left MSP in carry-on luggage. The reporters say their main interest is where the money is going. The national go-to expert cited is Glenn Kearns, a former Seattle police detective who spent fifteen years on the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force before retirement. Kearns is described as having tracked millions of dollars in cash leaving on flights from Seattle, money that came from hawalas—informal networks used to courier money to countries with little or no official banking system. Some immigrant communities rely on hawalas to send funds to relatives back home. Kearns discovered that some of the money was being funneled to a hawala in a region of Somalia controlled by the Al Shabaab terrorist group. The narrative then shifts to a claim that the money transfers are connected to welfare fraud, specifically day care-related fraud. The reporters note that to understand the link between day care fraud and the surge in carry-on cash, one must look at the history of the crime in Minnesota. Five years earlier, Fox 9 investigators reportedly first reported that day care fraud was rising in Minnesota, exposing how some businesses were gaming the system to steal millions in government subsidies meant to help low-income families with childcare expenses. The transcript explains the day care fraud scheme: centers sign up low-income families that qualify for child care assistance funding. Surveillance videos from a case prosecuted by Hennepin County show parents checking their kids into a center only to leave with them a few minutes later, or sometimes with no children at all. In any case, the center would bill the state for a full day of childcare. The report highlights this as a significant mechanism by which funds were diverted, tying it to larger issues of cash being moved internationally via hawalas and used to support illicit networks.

First class plane tickets, luxury cars, fine jewelry, all these lavish things allegedly bought by Minnesota fraudsters with taxpayer money intended for hungry children. New documents obtained by NewsNation show hundreds of millions of dollars worth of funds were spent in the fraud scheme engulfing Minnesota’s social services programs, prompting an investigation by the House Oversight Committee. The committee’s chairman, congressman James Comer, told NewsNation he thinks this could potentially be an organized scheme expanding beyond Minnesota. Speaker 1 also suggested that this is happening in other states with other social programs and other groups. Rich McHugh, reporting for NewsNation, noted that the new documents reveal how millions of dollars of taxpayer funds built from Minnesota’s welfare scandal were spent, with the indicted individuals “living large” and “burning large amounts of cash.” According to the coverage, when the indictments were first announced in September 2022, the revelations were shocking even then. The reports describe purchases of houses in Minnesota, resort property, and real estate in Kenya and Turkey, as well as luxury cars, commercial property, jewelry, and much more. A Maldives honeymoon is described as part of the lifestyle, and there was footage of the group popping champagne. The documents show investments in waterfront properties and real estate—“entire buildings in Kenya”—as well as Porsches. The scammers were young and reportedly very wealthy, texting each other images and messages, including “a box full of cash” valued at a quarter of a million dollars, and a note saying, “you are gonna be the richest 25 year old, inshallah.” They wired millions to China and to Kenya, and one text reportedly said, “please send 1,000 to Mogadishu Baccarat,” which appears to reference a market in Somalia once controlled by Al Shabaab, the site of the 1993 Black Hawk Down incident. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen (Treasury Secretary Scott Besson is referred to in the transcript as the speaker) said they are investigating and will try to find any links of this money going to Somalia and to Al Shabaab, and they plan to look at more scrutiny on all monies going back to Somalia. The report emphasizes that this investigation is just beginning, with ongoing scrutiny and potential broader implications beyond Minnesota.

HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O’Neill and HHS Assistant Secretary for the Administration for Children and Families Alex Adams discuss concerns about political patronage in Minnesota, alleging that incompetent state officials have allowed taxpayer money to be diverted to politically connected cronies. They claim state officials have been unwilling to confirm the size and scope of fraud, and assert that Governor Walz’s administration is diverting resources from working families to fake day care scams. They emphasize that raising a young family is challenging and that many families rely on state and federal assistance for affordable child care. They state that fraud is not victimless and that every dollar stolen is taken from children and families who need these services. They argue that Washington policies influence how states administer programs and can either prevent or invite fraud. They assert that the Biden-Harris administration adopted Child Care and Development Fund rules that created vulnerabilities, weakening accountability and making fraud easier. Consequently, they say a proposed rule has been released to repeal those Biden-era mandates. The proposed rule is described as having three important elements. First, it ends the requirement that taxpayer dollars must pay for child care before services are provided, so states will no longer be forced to send payments to providers upfront. Second, it ends the enrollment-based billing mandate, allowing payments to be based on verified attendance rather than enrollment alone, so providers cannot bill for children who never show up. Third, it ends the mandate to pre-fund guaranteed seats at childcare centers without competition, thereby restoring parental choice and bringing back market incentives that reward legitimate, high-quality providers. Taken together, the changes are said to ensure that payments reflect real services and real attendance, making it far harder for fraudulent or nonoperational centers to game the system. The speakers claim that Biden administration policies effectively backed up a Brink’s truck and sent the security home across welfare programs, and that in childcare, this ends today.

It's morning on March 15, and investigators are chasing a tip about a man leaving the country with a carry-on bag packed with a million dollars in cash. The claim is that he just cleared security with the cash, and that these cloak-and-dagger transfers happen almost weekly at MSP International. The money is reported to be headed to the Middle East, Dubai, and beyond, with sources saying last year more than $100,000,000 in cash left MSP in carry-on luggage. The reporters highlight Glenn Kearns as the national go-to expert on money transfers behind these mysterious movements. Kearns is a former Seattle police detective who spent fifteen years on the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force. He tracked millions of dollars in cash leaving flights from Seattle and found that the money came from hawalas—informal money-transfer networks used to send funds to countries with limited or no official banking systems. Some immigrant communities rely on hawalas to send money to relatives back home. Kearns discovered that some of the money was funneled to a hawala network in a region of Somalia controlled by the Al Shabaab terrorist group. The investigation raises a question: how could such large sums be transferred back home? The reporting notes that sources say the phenomenon is connected to welfare fraud and day care, suggesting a broader pattern behind the carry-on cash. To understand the link between day care fraud and the surge in carry-on cash, the reporters trace the crime's history in Minnesota. Five years earlier, Fox 9 investigators first reported that day care fraud was rising in the state. They exposed how some businesses exploited the system to steal millions in government subsidies intended to help low-income families with childcare expenses. The daycare fraud scheme works by centers signing up low-income families that qualify for childcare assistance funding. Surveillance videos from a case prosecuted by Hennepin County show parents checking their kids into a center and then leaving moments later, or sometimes with no children at all. Regardless, the center would bill the state for a full day of childcare. In summary, the report ties large cash transfers at MSP to hawalas and potential ties to terrorism financing, while framing a separate but connected pattern of crime: daycare centers billing for subsidized childcare in ways that enable significant fraud, thereby facilitating the movement and laundering of funds.
