What if I told you that you could open a business where you don't need to do anything except bill the government without demonstrating that you did anything, and that, collectively, you and your friends could collect millions of dollars a day?
You'd have to be an idiot not to get in on the grift, right? Especially when the people who might check on whether you actually do anything are in bed with you.

After my last video exposing over $110 Million in fraud Tim Walz dropped his run for reelection and multiple federal investigations were launched to stop fraud across the country. In this 51 minute video David and I expose another $16 Million in fraud as Minnesota welfare programs continue to operate fraudulently and steal from law-abiding taxpayers,Like it and share it around everywhere! Accountability and the law must come for the fraudsters and corrupt politicians who have let this happen.The fraud must end.
So what's this gold mine of a business? Actually, scratch that. With gold mines, you actually have to mine gold. Here, you don't have to do anything but bill the government.
It's called "Non-Emergency Medical Transportation," and it is designed to pay transportation providers to drive Medicaid recipients to appointments, to shop for groceries. Sometimes they actually drive people to things, and sometimes the business is just a shell company with no actual assets or even a real address.
Pretty much all you have to do is register a business, recruit some people who "need" rides, and bill the government for trips that may or may not actually happen.
Approximately 80% of NEMT providers in Minnesota are run by Somalis, which one would think would raise some eyebrows. Only, for some reason, it doesn't. And, as Nick Shirley's video shows, many don't appear to exist, despite being on the books for a decade.
Now, let it be conceded that Shirley is not doing a criminal investigation here, and his evidence for fraud is compelling, but it's possible that some of these businesses exist and provide services. A quick stop at a building proves nothing, but given the scale of the fraud and the intertwined nature of these businesses, we already know that it, let's just say that it bears investigation. Somalis make up 2% of Minnesota's population, and 80% of NEMT.
It doesn't add up.
You can see why Walz and Frey are inciting confrontations and holding press conferences after press conferences on ICE and demanding that the federal government leave the state. They have a lot to hide.
They are deeply involved in the schemes, politically benefit from the money that circulates back into the coffers of their campaigns and of the Democratic Party.
It's all connected. Billions of dollars have been skimmed off of welfare programs designed to help actual people in need. And everybody is in on it.
No doubt, this occurs across the country. Pick a sympathetic-sounding group, lobby for money to "help" them, kick back some of that to the policymakers, who keep increasing the payments. Rinse, repeat.
