If you haven’t seen the Nick Shirley video, you’re missing one of the biggest current-events moments of the week. With 127 million views in days, it claims to expose Minnesota–Somalian government fraud. And the reaction to it? That’s where it really gets interesting.
Let’s Begin
I wrote a post back in October questioning how Americans could vote for Omar Fateh, a candidate who openly swears allegiance to Somalia. In the Minneapolis mayoral election on November 7, he lost to Jacob Frey (who is also a nut job), 73,000 votes to 63,000.
Fateh did, however, carry the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood—better known as Little Mogadishu. The Minneapolis–St. Paul area has roughly 84,000 Somali residents, the highest concentration in the United States, with about 9,000 living in Little Mogadishu alone.
I can’t break down how many of his 63,000 votes came from people who are openly anti-American. But this background sets the stage for what comes next: the government fraud tied to the Somali community—and the corrupt officials who enable it. I’ll write it again, these people are not out to help America.
This or That?
The video shows Nick Shirley visiting Somali daycare centers that receive government funding. Spoiler: children were rarely seen. The way he was treated—and the sheer implausibility that these were legitimate, operating centers—helped draw 127 million viewers. You can probably guess which side I’m on.
Over the past few days, the response has been unintentionally hilarious.
No one seems to know which argument to make. Are the centers open, or are they all closed? The latest line I’ve seen is that every daycare Shirley visited had violations and was already shut down.
CBS Puff Piece
Mainstream media has been silent on this because covering it would require actual work. Nick Shirley walks into a dozen government-funded daycare centers with a camera and can’t find a single child, yet we’re told none of this exists.
If CBS disagrees, they should do what journalists are supposed to do: investigate it themselves and show the proof.
An Articulated Response
You’re taking our money! You are THE problem.
I know this is one guy but this is a wretched response. Of course if this is all above board, he would be correct!
It Gets Wilder in Minnesota
Vance Luther Boelter, who had been appointed to the Governor’s Workforce Development Board by Tim Walz, reportedly shot and killed Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, and also shot Senator John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette Hoffman.
Both Hortman and Hoffman had recently voted with Republicans to block state funding for healthcare for illegal aliens. According to reports, Boelter’s vehicle contained anti-Trump “No Kings” flyers and other Democratic political materials.
Here is his recent note delivered by the FBI.
The Takeaway
What Nick Shirley did was attempt to expose fraud carried out by immigrant-run daycare centers receiving public funding. In a Democrat-run city—under a governor who even changed the state flag to resemble Somalia—this may be something many people are willing to overlook or excuse.
You’re left with two choices after watching his videos: either you believe these centers are siphoning millions—if not hundreds of millions—of taxpayer dollars while providing little to no service, or you believe everything is legitimate and Shirley simply showed up at the wrong time, over and over again.
At what point do you stop vouching for, minimizing, or outright covering up crime in your own country because it conflicts with what you believe are DEI principles? As an outsider looking in, why would I assume this is all above board?
We’re talking about millions of taxpayer dollars, apparent government complicity, politically motivated violence, and coordinated efforts to downplay or dismiss what looks like systemic corruption. How can an American look at this and not want accountability—or what’s genuinely best for their country?
I’m aware I’m an outsider forming an opinion on a small blog. But the alternative, as I see it, is putting your head in the sand and pretending everything is fine while the country deteriorates.
This isn’t left versus right. It’s right versus wrong.
