"MAGA journalist" Nick Shirley's viral video has people knocking on the doors of alleged Somali daycares, adult care facilities, and, in this case, the Somali Education & Resource Center in Ohio. We wish we could tell you the name of the woman knocking on the door to find out where $14 million in taxpayer money went. Unfortunately, no one answered the door or the phone.
The Somalian education resource center that was given $14,000,000 has been found.

$14M in ONE year.

$42M total
At some point, people will have to start kicking these doors down to find out what's going on.

If we rely on government and investigations, ALL these people will get away.

Take a good image of that flyer taped to the door. I'll bet they copied it from a legit business and just dropped their name on it. AI would probably find who they duped.

This is demoralizing

This is a prime example of how real hard hitting journalism died many years ago. I have yet to see “journalist “ doing anything but hide behind a desk. This person is doing their job and I thank her.

But the Somali community is being targeted!
As a bonus, here's Angela Rose, who actually got to talk to a person at an adult daycare in Minneapolis:
90% of small businesses fail yet the Samara Adult Day Care still has their lights on without having 1 customer seemingly.

Salama Adult Day Care in Minneapolis says online that they

The post continues:

With a focus on promoting independence and well-being, Salama Adult Daycare C aims to enhance the quality of life for its participants through personalized care plans and meaningful interactions. The center strives to create a nurturing and inclusive community for adults seeking daytime care and companionship.”
Soooo even though their business is meant to provide a safe place, the woman there told me they feed them breakfast and lunch that they can take home??
It’s giving “feeding the future” vibes ✨
They close at 3pm and yet she said she was waiting for the seniors to arrive at 2:30…
No signage outside, no seniors, supposedly only operating after their operating hours, no English, no pictures allowed, old furniture…
Even if this was a real business HOW ON EARTH WOULD THEY STAY AFLOAT WITHOUT CUSTOMERS?!
Not a very warm reception.

Again, we're just scratching the surface. These are the businesses doing a poor job of covering up their crimes. I'm sure there's much more sophisticated fraud going on as well. There's no telling how many billions (trillions?) this amounts to across the country.
