Remember: Proven medicare fraud stealing from children isn't bad, but unsubstantiated fraud in blue states is bad. Unhinged shill reasoning to be found below.https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/grand-jury-report-hope-florida/A state grand jury found the DeSantis administration "misappropriated" taxpayer money when it diverted $10 million from a Medicaid settlement into the Hope Florida Foundation, arguing the transfer was "part of a sophisticated scheme to fund political activities," according to a copy of the sealed grand jury report obtained by CBS News Miami.The grand jury report said the money, which was supposed to be used to provide health insurance for poor children, was instead hastily passed through multiple organizations before eventually landing in the bank accounts of two political action committees and the Republican Party of Florida. Those funds were then used in 2024 to defeat Amendment 3, the citizen initiative to legalize marijuana in Florida."Despite our finding that the money was misappropriated, we find insufficient evidence to charge anyone criminally," the report concluded. "Nobody will take responsibility for deciding the $10 million of taxpayer money would go to Hope Florida… or had any memory of who made it.""We recognize that this would be an impediment to criminal prosecution," the report noted. "While we can't prove who is responsible, we can plainly see that taxpayer money was misused for political purposes and we would like to see changes made to prevent this from happening again."The grand jury identified the nexus for much of the activity surrounding the transfer as the state's current attorney general, James Uthmeier.
>>1532601Weird that many states still don't have legal weed. Weirder still that FL would be so anti-MAGA on the weed issue.
>>1532601Was this letter ever authenticated? Like did they have an envelope post dated from Mar A Lago? It's a type set letter so there's no handwriting to authenticate.
>>1532603>(sealioning intensifies)
>>1532601>GOP stole from sick kids for political ads AGAIN?!?!?
>>1532609I'm just asking for authentication.Steele Dossier said that Donald Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen was in Prague acting as a go between in collusion between Trump and Russia.https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-dossier-debunking-1535413060The problem is Michael Cohen has never been to Prague. The Steele Dossier wasn't authenticated and the allegations fell through
>>1532601its only fine when blue states do it.
>>1532614>The Steele Dossier wasn't authenticated It was sourced from British intelligence services and given to the Obama admin as op-ed research.
>>1532617>people need to be put to death for stealing federal funds earmarked for children>....this time is fine because reasonsWhy no one takes you cunts seriously.
Florida is where the GOP grift is concentrated and shipped to the rest of the states.
>>1532620but running daycare frauds in the tune of hundred of millions is finebecause its by a democrat agreed
>>15326291. You still have to prove those claims2. There is a very big difference between people fraudulently exploiting a social program and the fucking government of the state directly taking money meant to go towards healthcare for poor children into political action committees and their own party.
>>1532633https://www.wwlp.com/news/massachusetts/auditors-alarmed-by-lack-of-child-care-fraud-referrals/no oversight no referal no investigation since 2023ya blatent fraud.Ahh yes its fine when the government defrauds people if its for democrat causes thoughgo ahead and rope yourself
>yes its fine when the government defrauds peoplestandard MIGA corruption, got it
>>1532601the road to hell is paved with good intentions. most Republicans truly believe that what they are doing is good for the country, and hence, good for its people
>>1532634Again, there is a difference between>Money obtained to fund something that doesn't existfraud and>Government literally taking money meant for one thing and giving it to another thingfraud. Namely in that one of them is someone exploiting the system, whereas the other is the people in charge of the system using the system to directly steal funds meant for medical care for their own ends.
>>1532649The same with democrats who banned people from buying seeds or going to their parents funeral during covid>>1532639Try watching a Nick Shirley video some timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8AulCA1aOQ&https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kegwwB4RHgA&
They defend the daycares because they worship blacks and it was somalis were behind that schemeThey defend the Briben crime family because they worship tranny pedophiles and the Bribens gang raped kids. Liggeralism at its finest. Utter corruption. Imagine what would happen if the liggerals finally succeed in their plan to enact communism. They'd be able to go full mask off corruption and just appropriate your money and property entirely """"legally""""and redistribute it to blacks, muslims, Mexicans, trannies, and their billionaire pedophile buddies
>>1532651>Try watching a Nick Shirley video some timeYou mean the literal paid republican operative who has been caught faking parts of his videos and getting things blatantly wrong (Like claiming two different businesses got benefits for the same building even though checking will show only one of them is registered for benefits and the other just seemed to be the previous one ran in the building)? That Nick Shirley?
>>1532653Yes, and by You you were referring to ESL shill, a famously schizophrenic /news/ lolcow who commonly puts forth easily debunked arguments to indulge their humiliation fetish.
>>1532649No they fucking don't.
>>1532650not helping.>our financial crimes aren't as bad as their financial crimes because they just aren't!
>>1532651>Try watching a Nick Shirley video some timeThat's a really funny line. >>1532673That isn't what he said.
>alleged and unproved financial crimes are more real than proven fraud that has gone through the courtsESL Schizo is really misfiring lately
>>1532651>Try watching a Nick Shirley video some timeWhy, did they pay him with money earmarked for sick kids treatments?
>>1532601>SeeBS reporting on grand jury findings and not case rulingsInteresting tactic.
>>1532653>>1532680Was Nick Shirley being paid by republicans to make videos? I didn't hear that story break, got a link?
>>1532701Probably not. If so who cares if what he uncovered was factual fraud?>B-but muhpublicans!!!Hey team sports crybitch, some thing should be bipartisan.But liggerals are so obsessed with skeen cola equity they'd rather hide crimes than have them reported on.
>>1532706>who cares if what he uncovered was factual fraud?That’s a big “if” there.
>>1532684Whats wrong? Grand juries stopped being fun when pedophiles aren't using them to imprison sandwich throwers?
>>1532713To be fair, sandwich throwing boomers deserve legal troublesAnd grand juries decide if a crime may have occurred, thus they don't imprison anyone.
>>1532722Looked it up, and he was 37 at the time.Liggerals do not age gracefully, it seems.
>>1532701>>1532706>https://www.mprnews.org/story/2025/12/29/youtuber-nick-shirley-accuses-somaliowned-day-care-centers-of-fraud>But he totally didn't get paid by republicans or anything, they just told him where to go and what to look for and what to say about themAlso, reminder: Shirley is not a journalist. He is a youtuber who makes content designed to get engagement. None of the shit he "uncovered" actually held up to scrutiny.
>>15327251. everyone is a journalist it's not a credentialed field.2. there was fraud in Minnisomalia.
>>15327261. That’s not how it works.2. There being fraud in Minnesota doesn’t mean every claim of fraud in Minnesota is true.
>>1532725I read through this article. It says at the top Minnesota House Speaker Lisa Demuth said Monday that her caucus steered YouTube creator Nick Shirley to day care sites in Minnesota and links to a video, and then interviews a University of Minnesota media law professor who says what we are seeing isn't what we are really seeing.There doesn't seem to be much journalism in this article. Nick Shirley posted his video December 26th. That video of Republicans saying they informed Nick Shirley about the problem was released December 29th, but the author never seemed to look up if Lisa Demuth made public statements about this fraud and Nick Shirley in the same sentence prior to the video coming out
>>1532725>He is a youtuber who makes content designed to get engagement. None of the shit he "uncovered" actually held up to scrutiny.https://nypost.com/2026/01/08/us-news/minnesotas-infamous-quality-learing-center-is-now-closed-records-show/https://nypost.com/2026/04/29/us-news/infamous-quality-learing-center-is-now-totally-abandoned-after-fbi-raids/https://nypost.com/2026/05/20/us-news/owner-of-daycare-in-viral-nick-shirley-video-charged-in-4-6m-daycare-fraud-scheme-prosecutors-say/https://nypost.com/2026/07/10/us-news/minnesota-daycare-owner-in-viral-video-admitted-to-filing-more-than-4-6m-in-false-claims/
>>1532730>1. That’s not how it works.It literally is.>2. There being fraud in Minnesota doesn’t mean every claim of fraud in Minnesota is true.I agree.
>>1532731>who says what we are seeing isn't what we are really seeing.No he doesn’t.>but the author never seemed to look up if Lisa Demuth made public statements about this fraud and Nick Shirley in the same sentence prior to the video coming outWhy would that matter?
>>1532732Wow really cool. One small problem: Feeding Our Future was shut down in 2022. 4 fucking years prior. The ringleader (who ironically was a white US native) was convicted a year prior to Shirley's first video.And as for the "learing center", no actual fraud convictions. He found a shitty day care and wow, shocker, it closed down not long afterwards because it was shitty.
>>1532735>No he doesn’t.>It is predicated on what I would call a kernel of truth in many cases, but has also engaged in a fair amount of fearmongering, the use of really explosive terminology, references to violence, and the suggestion, essentially that the world’s going to hell in a handbasket, and only President Trump and his supporters can defend us from this onslaught. It’s a lot of rhetoric with relatively little substance behind it. He doesn't say anything Nick Shirley said is incorrect. He doesn't deny the fraud is taking place in the Somali Community, or that the owner of the Quality Learing Center would be indicted for millions of dollars in fraud. He just says it is all rhetoric without ever explaining what is incorrect about his portrayal>Why would that matter?Because she is taking credit after the fact. But the reporter never attempted to prove that Lisa Demuth or "her people" were ever in contact with Nick Shirley or "his people" just taking their word for it without any other source or verification
>>1532736Between October 2022 and December 2025, she allegedly submitted over 13,000 fraudulent claims to CCAP totaling approximately $4.6 million. The Future Leaders Early Learning center was featured in Shirley’s viral video, FOX 9 Minneapolis reported, which showed him visiting apparently empty, Somali-run childcare centers in and around Minneapolis while alleging widespread fraud.https://nypost.com/2026/05/20/us-news/owner-of-daycare-in-viral-nick-shirley-video-charged-in-4-6m-daycare-fraud-scheme-prosecutors-say/That's what this article saysNick Shirley made & released his video in December of 2026. The building might have very well been shut down in 2022, and it might also be true Fahima Egeh Mahamud was filing fraudulent claims involving an abandoned daycare, one that Nick Shirley visited during his December 2025 video. These facts aren't mutually exclusive they lineup with each other
>>1532737>or that the owner of the Quality Learing Center would be indicted for millions of dollars in fraudYeah this didn't happen. You might be getting it confused with the Feeding Our Future fraud, which did get charged, but why people are giving the credit to Shirley is beyond me considering that fraud got exposed in 2022 and the ringleaders convicted and sentenced in 2025, before his first video on the topic.
>>1532740>Nick Shirley made & released his video in December of 2026. The building might have very well been shut down in 2022, and it might also be true Fahima Egeh Mahamud was filing fraudulent claims involving an abandoned daycare, one that Nick Shirley visited during his December 2025 video. These facts aren't mutually exclusive they lineup with each otherWow, so what you're saying is he showed a building that had already been shut down for fraud, claimed it was actively committing fraud even though it was closed because it had gotten caught already, and then took credit when the fraudster got sentenced?Because it sounds an awful lot like he didn't "expose" jack fucking shit.
>>1532746>Reporters don't do exposesMan, what's it like to be SOOO fucking liggeral you brain ceases to even function?
>>1532737>It is predicated on what I would call a kernel of truth in many cases, but has also engaged in a fair amount of fearmongering, the use of really explosive terminology, references to violence, and the suggestion, essentially that the world’s going to hell in a handbasket, and only President Trump and his supporters can defend us from this onslaught. It’s a lot of rhetoric with relatively little substance behind it. >He doesn't say anything Nick Shirley said is incorrect. Your reading comprehension is embarrassingly bad.>Because she is taking credit after the fact. But the reporter never attempted to prove that Lisa Demuth or "her people" were ever in contact with Nick Shirley or "his people" just taking their word for it without any other source or verificationSo you think she's just lying about it for some reason.
Kids are more likely to vote D when they come of age, so why wouldn't they? The Republican party is for elders.
