BREAKING: Corrupt Judges in the Dock: Married Somali Pair Busted for Shielding Cartels and Laundering Billions
Federal agents didn't mess around. At dawn, over 200 FBI and ICE operators hit 17 locations across Minneapolis and St. Paul in a massive raid.
The targets? Sitting district court judges Amina Hassan and her husband Khaled Osman, a Somali-American power couple handed the keys to justice in Minnesota.
According to the explosive claims, these two weren't just wearing robes—they were on the Sinaloa and CJNG cartels' payroll. They allegedly dismissed cases, torched evidence, slow-walked warrants, and cleared the runway for deadly drugs flooding American streets.
Agents hauled out 3.25 tons of cocaine with a street value north of $180 million. They also cracked open a $1.5 billion fraud machine running through shell companies and fake nonprofits that funneled cartel cash while ripping off taxpayers.
The judges supposedly used their benches like a get-out-of-jail-free card for traffickers and turned community programs into money-laundering hubs. Luxury condos, hidden cash, encrypted drives mapping shipment routes—all allegedly tied back to them.
This is what happens when open borders, chain migration, and radical diversity hires collide with basic law and order. America imported judges who put foreign cartels above American safety. The rot in Minnesota's justice system runs deep, and real Americans are paying the price in lives lost to cartel poison.
If the details hold, this is one of the biggest judicial betrayals in U.S. history. Lock them up and throw away the key. No more sanctuary for criminals in black robes.

It hasn't sunk in for most people. We already live in a post-scarcity society. UBI is already here.
Basic package: disability, Medicaid, food stamps, etc.
Bonus package: literally getting paid for staying at home and hanging out with your relatives.
Extra bonus: if you are willing to commit fraud, pretend your kids are autistic and get paid for that. Get paid for watching your neighbor's kid. Pretend you are taking care of your grandma. Fake hospice clinic. Fake rehab clinic. Fake therapy clinic.
Giga bonus: during a time of crisis, take advantage of PPP or CARES and open a fake business and get paid for existing.
People are shocked when they learn that defense is the fifth largest line item in the budget. Ahead of defense: Social Security ($1.6T), interest on debt ($1.1T), Medicare ($1T), Medicaid + ACA ($1T), and then defense ($0.9T).
Complain about defense all you like, but healthcare fraud is a way bigger factor—hundreds of billions per year.
This is only going to get worse, because the fraud is a structural part of the system—payouts to client groups in exchange for votes (normally D).
In the US, only 47% of the population actually works (fully 14% of the population is working age and does not work). Retirees are 18% and children 22%.
The system I described above subsidizes 50 million non-working people at a minimum, but really it's far more because people paid to stay home and take care of their relatives are considered "workers."
Of that 47% of "actual workers," maybe one third does real work; the rest are shuffling papers around or doing fake email jobs. So you have, rough math, 50 million actual workers supporting 300 million dependents. That's the nature of the economy today. It will only accelerate. Eventually you will have 10 million using AI tools to do all the work and 340 million dependents.
The reason no one roots out the fraud is because it's the system that keeps our extremely fragile polity intact. The fraud is the UBI. The purpose of the system is what it does.
Of course, it's a deeply unfair system, because you are allowed to commit fraud if you are a politically protected client group of the Democrats. DOGE was killed faster than any government program ever, because it attempted to root out the fraud. If you are honest and unwilling to commit fraud, you are a huge loser in this system. Your neighbor will have their mortgage subsidized by some government program. They will get favorable SBA loans due to DEI. They will open a fake hospice or autism clinic. They will get paid for taking care of their neighbor's kid and vice versa. The primary skill in the labor market is learning how to extract money from state and federal government programs, not gaining skills or making yourself employable. If you are just trying to work an ordinary wagie job, you are a huge sucker. You are paying 40-50% effective all-in taxes to everyone else who is a net taker.
The sad part is that because AI is such a substantial productivity boost, it will actually keep this system going for a while longer, and maybe in perpetuity. AI boosts the 15% of the population that is actually productive so much that the remaining 85% can coast by. No one in charge will change this because they can't think of anything else. The political costs of a real UBI program are too great and we don't have the money for it anyway. So we will keep this covert fraud-based UBI program running indefinitely. Unfortunately, if you are an honest wagie, you lose.

More slaves were held by Africans than were EVER sent across the Atlantic
7 in every 1000 Africans is a slave TODAY: 10 MILLION people
It took 300 years for 10M slaves to cross the Atlantic
And the Arab Slave Trade in Africans continues TODAY!
So where are the protests outside the embassies & high commissions of Nigeria, Sudan, Mali, Chad etc?
This is not about slavery at all. This is an attack on Britain, America and the West.
Slavery is universal and as old as man.
What was unique was the Christian evangelical movement that spread across Britain, America and Western Europe that led to the West ending its BRIEF involvement in slavery.
Never forget: Britain was the first country in world history to deliberately make itself poorer in the pursuit of a moral good - i.e. the vast sums it expended enforcing an end to the slave trade on land and the high seas.
We must call this nonsense out.
Politics Global@PolitlcsGlobal
🚨🌍 NEW: The UN has voted to recognise the slave trade as “the gravest crime against humanity” and also called for reparations to the countries impacted The UK, France and other EU member states abstained whilst the US, Israel and Argentina opposed the proposal

I ask people how they would spend 30 billion dollars to save the world.
Some answers:
-Redistribution
-Ending homelessness
-Water access
-Education
-And the most popular answer? Climate change.
@BjornLomborg says most people have their priorities wrong.

She is an affront to the fabric that built the American miracle. A society that allows such a degenerate pig, @IlhanMN, to come to the US, be granted citizenship, and then to serve in the US congress, is engaging in Civilizational Seppuku. Remember my words.

A police department agreed to pay $3M after black applicants did worse on their hiring test.
“This is ridiculous!” says @HMDatMI.
Then why did they settle?
Because of a woke idea that’s rewritten America’s standards:
