They knew all along.
The fraud didn’t start in Minnesota. It started before they even got here.
While almost everyone by now knows about Rep. Ilhan Omar’s interesting ‘family ties’, this kind of thing was not unusual for Somalis where the goal was to smuggle each other in with little regard for the actual realities. The State Department knew about it enough to cut off family reunification programs back in 2008 because the ‘family’ members weren’t actually family.
In February, the State Department launched pilot testing in Kenya to verify family relationships, mainly among Somalis. When applicants arrived for a previously scheduled appointment, a U.S. official asked them to volunteer for a DNA test.
An expert then swabbed the cheek of those who claimed biological relationships, such as a mother and her purported children.
The cell samples were sent to labs in the U.S. for analysis.
As word spread, some applicants began missing appointments, and others refused to cooperate.Laboratory analysis of the samples indicated a large portion of applicants weren’t blood relations, as they claimed. “The results were dismaying,” says Ms. Strack. “This told us we had a problem with the program.”
In late April, the government decided to temporarily halt the family reunification resettlement program for East Africans. A government official confirms that “many thousands of people” are affected by the suspension, particularly Somalis and Ethiopians.
Refugee resettlement agencies report that arrivals have slowed to a trickle.
Predictably, the ‘refugee resettlers’ who got us into this mess howled bloody murder.
In Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minn., home to the country’s largest East African population, Catholic Charities hasn’t handled a single family reunification case since March 19. The agency has resettled 35 East African families this year, compared with more than 450 last year and about 1,300 in 2006. “Everyone is calling or walking in here and asking what is going on,” says Angela Fox, a resettlement worker at Catholic Charities.
“No one condones people gaining entry by false means; the integrity of the program must be ensured,” says Bob Carey, chair of Refugee Council USA, a coalition of U.S. agencies that work on refugee issues, and vice president of resettlement for the International Rescue Committee. However, he adds, “DNA is not the only means to assess family relationships.”
Refugee advocates say the definition of family among Africans extends beyond blood relatives, especially when families fleeing persecution are scattered. “Some families are raising children who aren’t their own but whom they call son or daughter,” says Ms. Fox of Catholic Charities.
Uh huh.
No one got deported. There were no consequences. The invasion continued. So did the brother-marrying. And what began with a family reunification fraud ended with billions in fraud in Minnesota.
rick says
There is one point I do not fully understand in this article. The DNA testing clearly showed that non blood relatives were posing as sons and daughters and sisters and brothers. Then someone said that there is more to being a family member than blood. Many people care for non blood people and are called by them as mother and father.
So my question is was the DNA testing abandoned? And did the understanding of who was a proper family member get stretched to anyone who says they were? Hopefully they were not. DNA worked and that testing should have been continued. It may have removed many of the problems we are facing now.

Rick, this is a thing now–at least in the US. Children have been given to “family” who are no relatives of theirs by child protective services–sometimes to terrible effect.
Now sometimes someone–a neighbor, say, or a member of the church the family attends, really *has* acted as surrogate parent to kids. But these cases should be vetted *very* carefully.
I recently read an account by a woman who was concerned about a teenager she found walking down the side of the road, and gave her a ride, bought her a fast food burger and a pair of sneakers because her’s were falling apart.
So far so good–but this woman was shocked to hear from the girl’s social worker a few days later, who suggested she adopt the girl. No vetting, nothing. The woman realized that–statistically–she might have been just a one-time good Samaritan, but also may have been something much worse, like a drug dealer or human trafficker.
This is the backdrop against which this Somali fraud is happening.
somehistory says
muzzies call other muzzies ‘sister’ and ‘brother.’
DNA testing is expensive. Many police departments don’t test crime scene samples because of the cost. Many rapists and murderers go free to commit again because their DNA isn’t tested.
And, here the government spent….probably gazillions…testing the DNA of millions of muzzies who want to come here so they can get welfare, cheat and steal, and commit terrorism.
What a world.

Islam’s Muslims, Somali or not, teach and promote deceit, discrimination, violence, and terrorism against Non-Muslims as taught in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). This is actual face of Islam, hatred and theft, a Criminal-Terrorist-Gang Enterprise(Qur’an 5:14; 60:4, etc.).
SUPREMACIST ISLAM IS ANTICHRIST, AHISTORICAL, DECEITFUL, MILITARISTIC, AND POLITICAL against the USA Constitution and Western Laws to conquer and to subjugate Non-Muslims using MUSLIM-TERRORIST-CRIMINAL-GANG ENTERPRISES with ISLAMIC LAW(SHARIA) and with CONTINUOUS, TERROR PROPAGANDA from Islam’s Qur’an as evidenced by the continuous Muslim attacks to make Islam supreme(Qur’an 2:191; 3:28, 54; 4:89-91; 7:99; 8:30, 60; 9:5, 29,111; 16:106, etc.). Islam and its Muslims, enemies of Non-Muslims, are a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) as taught in Islam’s Qur’an.
Deceitful Allah affirms Non-Muslims as enemies of Allah while Muslims continuously undermine a society from within using their man-made Qur’an with lies, obfuscation, and deceit(Qur’an 3:54; 7:99; 8:30; 60:4, etc.). Allah in Qur’an 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels[Non-Muslims] were your clear enemies.” Allah expects all Muslim believers to war against all non-Muslims until the Unbelievers convert to Islam or face Muslim violence. Corrupt Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” As a result, Non-Muslims are marked for death by Islam and its Muslims.
Murderous Islam is a civilization-destroying, delusional, indoctrinating, cancerous fraud because there is NO MECCA, NO MUHAMMAD, and NO Qur’an in the 7th century AD in Saudi Arabia despite the Muslim Standard Islamic Narrative claims; the Deceitful House of Islam is founded on propaganda, lies, intimidation, and deceit where Islam’s 1400-year traditions are based on fallacy and myth including a more than 300-year gap with no documented history. Hence, NEVER give money to Islamic Countries, Islamic Organizations, Mosques, Islamic Schools, etc. because your are funding your ultimate destruction. Islam must be banned as illegal, and we have the legal right to defend ourselves from Muslim violence.
Islam’s 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.” Again, Islam is a FACTITIOUS IDEOLOGY and CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION despicably fabricated over time into the 21sth century, and there is NO PEACE only genocidal obliteration with Islam and its deceitful Muslims(Qur’an 7:18; 8:39: 9:5, 29, 111; 11:119; 32:13; 47:4, etc.).
Demonic ALLAH claims MUSLIMS are a greater TERROR than serpentine Allah in Islam’s Qur’an. 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.” 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.”
Islam, its Mosques, its Schools, its Sharia Courts, its Organizations, etc. are Terrorist-Criminal Enterprises of hatred and enmity against all Non-Muslims as totalitarian Islam, the House of Satan, islamizes the society with impunity(Qur’an 5:14; 9:5, 29, 111, etc.). As taught from Islam’s Qur’an, Islam should be banned for its incitement, funding, and promotion of hybrid warfare, violence, terrorism, criminality, hatred, human trafficking, and discrimination against women, children, and Non-Muslims.
Allah describes Muslim women in Jenna, Allah’s Paradise, as whores of Allah in Qur’an 56:37. Also, Allah stirs hatred against Christians until the resurrection day as 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; 8:55.

I disagree w/ this decision. Family reunification must happen! In Somalia
All those Somalis who are applying for their relatives to come here – round them up, cancel their visas and put them on a number of C130s to Mogadishu
On a different note, looking at the other photo of Ilhan Omar gazing lovingly at her president, it looks like they had a great time in bed and he completely satisfied her 😈

She has the same look hellary clinton had when bo was hugging her. what they are thinking or feeling…..i have no idea, except that it is disgustingly evil
JS says
Ninety nine percent of Somalis had FGM. Nothing could please this person.
I just want to know why Trump isn’t doing more! Has anyone seen the news about Momdanis 4th Annual International Hijab Fay, by the NYPD? And their request for resources to fund teaching non Muslims how to wear a hijab, and bringing more Muslims into NYPD? This is yet ANOTHER intentional slap (or kick) in the face by Islamic terror radical Momdani. He MUST be investigated and thrown out of office AND the nation along with his parents.

“”in healthcare fraud discovered in California, Minnesota pales in comparison: Dr Oz”
“We have witnessed a sevenfold increase in hospice in LA County, sevenfold. That doesn’t happen naturally,” Dr Mehmet Oz, the administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services told The Post during at the press conference.
“There is not seven times more deaths in LA County than there were five years ago. These are fraudsters, and these do tend to be foreign influences, either Russian and Armenian gangs, mafia, that are leading a lot of these efforts.”
“We’ve already identified about $1.3 billion of federal dollars spent to take care of illegal immigrants,” Dr Oz said. “The state is giving that money back.”
Hundreds of billions of dollars flow through California’s healthcare system, according to Essayli, who said $10 billion is for “illegal immigrant health care.”
“No federal dollars is supposed to be used for that,” said Essayli, who back in April launched a task force investigating corruption in the state, specifically focused on homelessness.”

Could be–certainly it is not *just* Muslims committing fraud.
On the other hand, Mehmet Oz is himself Muslim, and may be spouting apologia for Islam.

I don’t see this as trying to excuse muzzies in other states and fraud committed by them.
oz is not the only one saying medicare and medicaid fraud….the attorney is saying it.
and the “illegals” involved could be muzzies
Of course, the assistant state attorney might also be muzzie. But, I have no doubt that fraud is taking place as they have said.

State Department Cut Off Somali ‘Family Reunification’ Due to Fraud
…………………………………………………………….
Good to hear. Many of these are not even relatives.
Julia Lutch says
Taking candy from the American baby is appallingly easy and widespread.
Meanwhile young Americans cannot afford to buy a home because of taxes they pay, that should be going to mortgage payments, instead contribute to funding fraud. Same with huge amounts of student debt incurred by people mislead into believing that a ”studies” degree would help them find gainful employment.
Bring back actually teaching the 3 Rs and teaching the trades in high school, to help American kids earn a living wage. Then let them keep more of their earnings instead of being robbed by ungrateful recent arrival fraudsters, who add to the burden of already existing fraud funded through taxes. So sad.
Kepha says
Uncle Kepha applauds his former employer’s recent action! I’ve long believed that temporary bans on immigration from certain areas rife with fraud, criminality, or terrorism make a great deal of sense (Trump’s “Muslim Ban”, which left 80%+ of the Muslim world unaffected was a case in point).
