What did Walz and Ellison know and when did they know it?
The Somali Muslim ‘Feeding Our Future’ fraud was massive in scope. It was one of a series of Somali frauds that has gone nationwide with President Trump commenting on it and Democrats rushing to their defense.
In 2019, Feeding Our Future distributed $3.4 million in taxpayer food aid funds to the non-profits it was sponsoring, In 2020, that shot up to $42 million and then up to $197 million in 2021.
Safari Restaurant, which boasts “traditional Somali cuisine” like french fries and safari chicken quesadilla, where Rep. Ilhan Omar had celebrated her victory party, applied to participate in the Federal Child Nutrition program.
When the money was denied, Feeding Our Future complained that “minority-owned businesses serving almost exclusively economically disadvantaged children of color” were being denied the right to serve “culturally relevant foods” to “youth” during a “national emergency”.
Crying racism worked and at its peak Safari claimed to be feeding 6,000 children a day. That’s a lot of children. Documents note that the Somali eatery claimed to be serving a comparable number of meals to “the entire St. Paul public school district.”
The Feds staked out various Feeding Our Future meal sites and found no one at the places that were supposed to be feeding 50,000 children. According to the FBI, the money being stolen wasn’t used to feed children, it went into various shell companies and fronts operated by Somalis and was used to buy everything from a Porsche to African properties.
Now, Bill Glahn at American Experiment, who was responsible for much of the original reporting on the case, has come across a tape featuring some of the alleged Somali fraudsters and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison.
Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s Attorney General, can clearly be heard pledging his support to individuals who would soon become his family’s campaign donors and later Feeding Our Future criminal defendants.
Ellison describes his interventions with then-DHS Commissioner Jodi Harpstead. Ellison states on the recording that “we are in the middle of the battle with the agencies now”. Ellison asserts that: ‘Walz agrees with me that this piddly, stupid stuff running small people out of business is terrible.’
Safari Restaurant is referenced by name… Partners in Quality Care (Partners in Nutrition) and Feeding Our Future are first mentioned. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s connection to Safari Restaurant is mentioned…
Ellison agrees with the proposition that there is state agency discrimination against East African businesses. “Just being able to say, just getting the question, just getting the inquiry from the AG is sometimes enough to make people knock it off.”
Ellison’s visitors start getting into the details of their big beef with MDE. Ellison asks his guests basic questions about the food programs, how they operate and specific complaints about MDE.
Specifically, the request is for him, in the AG’s statutory role as attorney for state agencies, to intervene on behalf of these small businesses subject to racist government overregulation. Ellison assures his audience, “Of course, I’m here to help,” and “Let’s go fight these people.”
All of this is really important because one reason Feeding Our Future was able to keep on pulling off its fraud were the claims of racism and discrimination.
MDE or the Minnesota Department of Education tried to pull back and was accused of racial discrimination.
When MDE identified the unexplained growth of Feeding Our Future, MDE immediately reported those activities to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Midwest Regional Office, USDA’s Office of Inspector General, and the FBI until we were able to find someone who would take the troubling spending as seriously as we were. When MDE stopped payments, Feeding our Future hit back with accusations of racism and a sham lawsuit. Because of Feeding our Future’s misrepresentations in that lawsuit, a court instructed the payments to continue.
No one expects anything useful from Ellison’s office or local authorities, but it may be time for the FBI to see how high the fraud went. AG Keith Ellison mentions Gov. Tim Walz as agreeing with him and them. That’s about as high as it can go in the state.
The next question is what Ellison, the state AG, and Walz, the governor, knew and when did they know it.
Wellington says
Ellison is arguably even worse than Walz and which is saying something.
I know that most of Minnesota has not gone stupid but the Twin Cities have and like Baltimore in Maryland, NYC in New York, Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco in California, Atlanta in Georgia, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, most certainly Chicago in Illinois, et al., these decrepit metropolitan areas ruin entire states and demonstrating again the wisdom of Thomas Jefferson, to wit, that cities are the breeding ground of filth and pessimism and a lot of other negatives.
And ever since America went extra foolish in the last twenty-five years or so and has allowed in tons of Muslim immigrants (thanks again, Bush 43, for nothing, ditto for the brain-dead Biden and as for Obama it’s even worse but he actually did know what he was doing unlike Bush 43 and Biden), metropolitan areas, as bad as they were before, have gotten even worse—far worse when you add to this Muslim immigration rot the rot of AGs and DAs like Ellison in Minnesota and Krasner in Philadelphia dealing with victims of crime as perpetrators who deserve what they got and criminals as the real victims.
In brief, as bad as cities were before Obama became President (you know, the smooth-talking fool who wanted to “fundamentally transform America”), it’s gotten even worse because one of the two major political parties in America has lost its collective mind and we now have tons of Muslim immigrants who add nothing to America and want to make it into another Islamic Hell-Hole.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
He was the first ever elected muslim congressman, even before Ilhan and Rashida. Why is this even remotely surprising?
somehistory says
Yes; and it was the plan of the mb to infiltrate the “miserable house from within.” The “House.”
Wellington says
Not surprising at all, Infidel, since America and the West at large has gone stupid about Islam in the past half century. In fact, practically a given this would occur once a society ceases to identify as inimical to it something which is nonetheless and indeed inimical (ditto for many Hindus in India I think but you would know better about this).
Descent, stupidity and self-inflicted wounds continue in America and in so much of the West because the West has lost its collective mind and even its collective balls where Mo’s creed is concerned.
Look, as an example, at the last two Popes for confirmation of this assertion, this conviction, this truth. If a major Christian sect, and there is none larger than Roman Catholicism, has gone foolish where Islam is concerned (never mind other ecclesiastical idiots like the Anglican Church and the Lutheran Church), my God, how much hope remains for Western Civilization? Not much I sorrowfully here assert.
And when you compound this “problem” with secular leaders aplenty like Starmer, Carney, Biden (OMG, what a travesty to truth and justice this man has been throughout his entire political career, but I digress), Bush 43, Blair, Macron, Merkel—sadly, it’s a very long list—then you arguably have the perfect “recipe” for the destruction of a great civilization, i.e., Western Civilization.
Happening now. You bet it is.
Ruth E weekly says
Always interesting comments from you. Well we agree about Bush, he was an enemy of America, he was rotten. Then the other bad people like Ellison was able to get good jobs that was suppose to help America but he was a muslim and proud to be one and bragged about it. and wanted to change America like Obama wanted to do.
Billy says
Using their Middle East money, Islam’s Muslims bought Clinton, Bush, Obama, Biden, and Trump as well. Muslims are to be seditionist terrorists for Allah with their MONEY and their LIVES. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 teaches, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.”
Emilie Green says
“What did Walz and Ellison know and when did they know it?”
They, along with Omar and Obama, knew it all and knew it from the beginning.
somehistory says
Many muzzies associated with ilhan elmi and the muzzie owned restaurant have been arrested; including the owner of the restaurant whee elmi celebrated her *win*
ilhan elmi, alias omar, was the writer of the bill which made the law from the program which would be used to set up the fraudulent ‘feeding’ scam.
when asked about the fraud using the program, for which she was responsible, she said it was because it was set up so fast, “guardrails” were not created to prevent the fraud. So, why did she not “create the guardrails”? She wanted the fraud.
ellison is a rabid muzzie….ilhan elmi is a rabid muzzie….So far, nearly 100 rabid somalis have been found to have engaged in fraud; some have been convicted already..
It’s the AGs job to stop crimes….but keith ellison is no ordinary AG. He’s a rabid muzzie and his goal is to continue to use his power to help his fellow muzzies beat the rap and continue to “feed themselves” through fraud.
harvey james says
Shes lying as her religion allows her to to none muslims-there were never meant to be guardrails.
somehistory says
Of course she lied. The snake wanted the fraud and she benefited from it.
40 rounds says
No doubt the corruption runs deep. The leftist communist Muslim awfls hate the US and have no problem ripping off decent, law abiding minnesotans. Too bad the decent people are susceptible to being hoodwinked every election and some of them fall for the bullshit from the left. Wake up people
Fundamentalist says
Ellison is a Muslim. Muslims believe it is their right to lie and to collect money from nonmuslims calling it a “jizzya tax”
Peace and Love says
The only thing that has changed is that the so smellies are eating cash instead of tje traditional French fries. What b.s.
All of them should be on jail. Ilan ellison, Walz and the entire ring of nutrition providers. Make them do some years. Send that message. It is well past time.

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison Promised to Aid Somali Fraudsters
……………………………………………………………
And why not? He’s a Muslim fraudster himself.
Tony says
Leftists partner with Islam’s Muslims to deceive, to steal, and to terrorize Non-Muslims using every stratagem of deception to help gain ultimate power and control. This is everyday life with Islam’s Muslims as taught in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 3:54; 7:99; 8:30; 9:5, 29, 111, etc.).
Islam, Allah’s genocidal ideology, in Qur’an 8:39 commands Muslims to fight Non-Muslims until Non-Muslims surrender to Muslim rule and become Muslims when Allah says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” Demonic Allah in Qur’an 5:51 says, “O you who have believed[Muslims], DO NOT TAKE the Jews and the Nasara(Christians) as friends. They are friends to one another. And whoever among you takes them as friends, so surely he is of them. Surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.”
Allah commands Muslims to conquer and subjugate every territory for Islam using every tool available with their MONEY and with their LIVES wielding the power of the Government or the State. Hence, Islam and Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Westerners via Governments, Tax Exempt Organizations, the Media and Hollywood, Foreign Funding, etc. because Islam violates and is incompatible with Western Laws(Qur’an 8:60; 9:5,29, 111; 47:4; 49:15; 65:4 etc.).
Allah stirs hatred against Christians until the resurrection day when Qur’an 5:14 instructs, “And some of those who say, ‘Surely we are Nasara (Christians),’ we took their covenant. So they have forgotten a part of what they were reminded of, so we have stirred up ENMITY and HATRED among them until the resurrection day. And Allah will inform them of what they were doing.” See also Qur’an 60:4.
Islam must be banned as illegal, and we have the legal right to defend ourselves from Muslim violence. Allah in Qur’an 9:29 commands, “Engage in war with those who do not believe in Allah nor in the last day. Nor forbid what Allah and his messenger forbid, nor believe in the religion of the truth among those who have given the book until they pay the jizyah out of hand and they are subdued.”
Muslims are supremacist terrorists for Allah with their MONEY and with their LIVES while undermining a society from within using the man-made book of lies and deceit, the Qur’an. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 says, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” Allah in Qur’an 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels(Non-Muslims) were your clear enemies.”
MUSLIM BELIEVERS are a greater TERROR than Allah. Allah in Qur’an 59:13 says, “You[Muslims] are a greater terror in their chests than Allah. This is because they[Jews & Christians] are people who do not understand.” As a result, Non-Muslims are marked for death by Islam and its Muslims.

Smile while you can a-hole because we are just beginning to fight back.

When we get deadly serious about fighting back you best run mister smile mouth.

The USA will turn into Somalia, not because of immigrants but because of Tom Barrack and Donald Trump, because they are bribed by Qatar and Saudi Arabia.
harvey james says
I’ve begun wondering if DearBorn could be some kind of future significance as far as the epicenter of muslim conquest of America in like 50 years but its looking earlier. Obama gave them a leg up when he encouraged muslims to be hired in his administration shaking hands with cair while listening to the call to prayer.
Taffy says
The foundation for the scam goes back to the days when Jodi Harpstead and her Lutheran Social Services of Minnesota were paid $millions in taxpayer money to resettle Somalis into Minneapolis. After the damage was done, Tim Walz appointed her to DHS Commissioner for Minnesota.
Noah Andeark says
Keet is an islamist terrorist in the same way that the terror group CAIR is a terror organization, whose officers, members, and supporters are terrorists.
Winston 101 says
This is Fraud Jihad plain and simple.
Got to steal money from the Great Satan
and give it to Somali terror groups.
Muslims think they deserve the money.
They consider it Jizya, it’s simply due them by the Dimmi Kafirs.
Walter Sieruk says
The picture above this article is a reminder of the book UNMASKED: INSIDE ANTIFA’S S RADICAL PLAN TO DESTROY DEMOCRACY by Andy Ngo on page 98 the reader in informed that during January 2017 “In Washington DC, marauding gangs of Antifa overwhelmed police by braking window sand hurling projectiles.”
Likewise, in another places “masked Antifa extremists started fires on campus, destroyed property, threw incendiary devices hurled rocks at police…”
Those aren’t isolated incidents of Antifa violence and mayhem, it occurs in different cities, towns and place time and time again. Sometimes with murderous outcomes. Those criminal bands of Antifia hooligans have proven by their actions that there’re a malice-filled violent brutal gangs of domestic terrorists thugs and should be dealt with as such. As Thomas Jefferson had so wised written “With every barbarous people… force is law.”
Furthermore, the author Mr. Ngo further reveals in his expose’ that “The militant far-left movement and ideology have existed for over half a century in Europe. It has had decades to develop a coherent ideology in both violent and non-violent strategies to undermine democracy under the guise of fighting fascism.”
To reiterate the last part of that sentence “to undermine under the guise of fighting fascism.” This only proves the old wise saying to be true. Which is that “Evil is always looking for an excuse.”
Walter Sieruk says
In THE EPOCH TIMES A7. 1/26/22 article entitled “Antifa Shuts down College Event in New Hampshire.”
It informs its reader that “Dartmouth College moved and event online after far left extremist threaten violence…”
It further reads “The live even scheduled at the Ivy League university in New Hampshire was called ‘Extremism in America” and was to feature conservative personality Andy Ngo, who has been violently attacked by Anfifa in the past. Antifa and its sympathizer made several threats against the event.”
So much for freedom of speech. Actually the lawless ruffians who made up Antifa really do believe in freedom of speech but only as long as it’s them doing the speaking.
This really shows not only who completely intolerate Antifa is of those who differ from them , this likewise reveals to weak the platforms of the agenda people are for because they must fear, balance, as an opponent speaker will expose the terrible fragile flaws in what they believe.
