AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
The widespread fraud in Minnesota's Somali community is not breaking news. At least $9 billion was stolen from taxpayers via the state's welfare programs including Medicaid, housing, and even the autism programs. Millions were lost to the "Feeding Our Future" scandal, too. We learned last year that almost $400 million was funneled to Al-Shabaab, the Somali-based Islamic terrorist group, and CBS News reported that millions were spent on luxury cars, lakefront homes, and sent to banks in China and Kenya.
