🚨🇸🇴🇺🇸 BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: U.S. GETTING FLEECED; MINNESOTA FRAUD LINKED TO SOMALIAN PRESIDENT’S DICTATORIAL AMBITIONS Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud is connected to the fraud taking place in Minnesota and other states, and is using those funds to consolidate power in Mogadishu, per confidential sources, right as we write… And if that wasn't bad enough, that money is also impacting American interests in the Iranian conflict and around the Red Sea, where Somali pirates have been a resurgent force in recent weeks. Here's the breakdown: Somali nationals operating daycare centers, healthcare programs, and even initiatives meant to feed hungry children have been caught stealing hundreds of millions from U.S. taxpayers. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar just blew off a Minnesota committee deadline tied to the Feeding Our Future probe. She also sponsored the 2020 MEALS Act that critics say opened the door to this type of fraud in the first place. This part of the story is widely known by now, thanks to people like @nickshirleyy. But what is not widely known is where most of the stolen money actually goes. According to these sources, hundreds of millions have flowed from the U.S. Somali diaspora directly into Mogadishu through Dahabshiil, a money remittance company with notoriously thin KYC standards for American Somalis. Dahabshiil has operated under the protective umbrella of Mohamud's political network since 2013, with the President personally fending off sanctions and regulatory scrutiny on its behalf. For many in the diaspora, sending money back home is safer than spending it in the U.S., because much of it involves outright tax evasion. And the destination of those funds tells the story. Mogadishu's real estate market is in a hyper-boom phase that defies both global and African norms. Nearly 10,000 buildings and towers have gone up in the last 6 years, with luxury mixed-use developments receiving special urban planning treatment in exchange for greasing the palms of the political elite surrounding Mohamud. These nouveau riche from Minnesota and Ohio buy in, then layer on prestige by funding local NGOs and even militant groups, all of which ultimately funnel back to Mohamud and his inner circle. Now look at what is happening politically: -In March, Somalia's parliament voted to change the constitution and extend Mohamud's term by a year, delaying elections that were due this year. -Opposition leaders called it "a clear indication of a worrying trend toward authoritarianism." -Regional states including Puntland and South West State have severed ties with the federal government. -A court in Kismayo issued a warrant for Mohamud's arrest on charges of treason. This is not a functioning democracy, it is a president acting without accountability. Then there is the question of who Hassan Sheikh Mohamud actually is and where his political loyalties lie: -In 2011, he founded the Peace and Development Party, which had direct ties to Al-Islah, Somalia's branch of the Muslim Brotherhood. -He resigned from the PDP in 2016 and launched a new vehicle, the Union for Peace and Development Party, but the ideological footprint never really left. -He has appointed multiple Al-Islah affiliated figures to senior positions in his administration including the ministries of interior, justice, and social affairs. And while Mohamud consolidates power domestically and delays accountability through constitutional manipulation, he turns a blind eye to factions conducting or facilitating attacks on Red Sea shipping, attacks that are costing the global economy billions. America has poured billions into Somalia in aid, peacekeeping support, and counterterrorism assistance. That kind of leverage exists for a reason, and right now it should be used. A leader who is siphoning money from American taxpayers, with Muslim Brotherhood affiliations, documented corruption, and enables threats to global shipping does not get to rewrite the constitution to extend his own term. The line should be drawn clearly. American lawmakers cannot afford to keep treating Somalia like a problem they will deal with later. Every month Mohamud delays is another month of consolidation, another month of diaspora money flowing into Mogadishu, and another month of regional fracture. Sanctions now! The Somali people deserve better, and American taxpayers deserve answers!! @nickshirleyy @StateDept @WhiteHouse @SecRubio @SpeakerJohnson @JDVance @tedcruz
