VP JD Vance on Minnesota fraud
Vice President JD Vance says a major conflict against fraudsters and pirates is ongoing in Minnesota. Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent reports his department is closely monitoring funds moving offshore to groups like Al Shabab in Somalia. The story in Minnesota is that a community, that Minnesotans welcomed into their community with open arms, far too many of those people have committed fraud against the people of Minnesota! They established fraudulent daycares and exploited the welfare system there. We actually want to preserve the programs that allow us to be generous to our fellow citizens. But to do that we need to penalize fraudsters. Every Somali pirate should be deported. Michelle Tafoya is described as a non-partisan candidate who wants to represent all Minnesotans. Hopefully they elect her.

Andrew Ferguson went up there to talk about fraud. Unfortunately, we just had some stuff at the White House that we had to take care of. Look, you know, the story in Minnesota is that a community that Minnesotans welcomed into their community with open arms, far too many of those people have committed fraud against the people of Minnesota. They've set up fraudulent daycares. They've taken advantage of the welfare system in Minnesota. And I think that the basic message is we actually want to preserve the programs that allow us to be generous to our fellow citizens. But in order to do that, we have to penalize fraudsters. We've been taking that especially seriously. I think Michelle Tafoya in Minnesota, she's not a partisan person. I think she wants to represent all Minnesotans. Hopefully they elect her. We'll see what happens.
