Sure, but that doesn't mean Fran isn't triggered by Somalis. It isn't like he hides it. He's certifiable over Somalis. I guess he's worried they'll move into Fridley some day.
Somali woman shows up at Juror's Minneapolis home with $120,000 in cash, asking for acquittal of 7 Somalians accused of stealing $41,000,000
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Show us one contribution the millions of thieving somalis imported to America has made?
One defendant has been sentenced but prosecutors say Mohamed Ismail will still leave prison "a wealthy man" because of the half-million dollars he wired to China and the real estate purchased in Kenya and Somalia that the feds can't access.
Note that he almost successfully fled the country; he was at the airport, attempting to flee to Kenya, before being arrested

MINNEAPOLIS — Mohamed Ismail was one of the owners of Empire Cuisine — the Shakopee restaurant and market at the center of the first Feeding our Future federal meal fraud trial. On Tuesday, he was sentenced to 12 years for his role in the case.
After five of the seven defendants were found guilty, Judge Nancy Brasel said that group is responsible for stealing $42 million, of the overall $250 million fraud case.
The evidence showed Empire falsely claimed to serve meals to kids there and at other phony meal sites around the state, providing false documents and laundering money.
Ismail almost didn't make it to trial. Federal agents arrested him on the Jetway at Minneapolis/St Paul international airport as he attempted to flee to Nairobi, Kenya in April 2022. He was convicted of passport fraud — claiming his passport was "lost at home" after the FBI actually seized it.
Court papers show the feds have been able to claw back at least $4.5 million from Ismail through his bank accounts and his house in Savage which prosecutors say he paid off with fraud money.
But in arguing for a harsh sentence, Assistant U-S Attorney Joe Thompson said Ismail will still one day leave prison "a wealthy man" because of the half-million dollars he wired to China and real estate in Kenya and Somalia that the feds can't access.
In calculating the fraud amount, Judge Nancy Brasel did not count the $5 million Empire Cuisine actually did spend on food, even though prosecutors said much of that was for their restaurant, not the meal program.
But Brasel gave Ismail the harshest sentence the guidelines called for — 12 years — saying, "The taxpayers in Minnesota are rightfully outraged by the brazenness and scope of your crime. The evidence at trial was frankly breathtaking."

It takes more than 120,000 simoleans to bribe a juror into acquitting a bunch of Somalians.
Ol' Doodle will show himself out.

Good they were caught. Too bad Trump didnt' get jail time for his crimes... fake charity, for example.
Well there is the "he is going to leave prison a rich man for the money he was able to send to china" factor.
Or it could be that Minnesota is just a horribly ran state.
The group stole money from the UDSA, a federal entity.
As for Minnesota, the quality of life here dwarfs our neighbors, including Iowa.

He not only wired hundreds of thousands overseas, he bought land/property in Kenya and Somalia; all of this is for him to keep. As the story states, the Feds can't touch any of it.
And Tim Walz is governor of Minnesota, of course, and this $250M in fraud happened under his watch.
Can't be pissed about crimes by some but not all. Showing your hypocrisy. Sorry it hurt your feelings.
You're an idiot. I have posted many times that Trump is unfit for office.
This echo chamber is really something else; it almost feels cult like.
This started in 2020, and involved federal funding, utilizing USDA (that's a federal entity) programs.
You would be best served in learning how to read or to understand the data you have access to.

By your standards, this all happened under the Trump administration's watch and his large trillion dollar spending programs enacted after their delayed (poor response) to the Pandemic.
Yeah that’s the right thing to do, wow !
What’s wrong with being honest, maybe I’m just too f..n old
Let me make this simple for you because you are clearly a dumb ass who doesn't understand that:
* The USDA reimbursed the State of MN's Department of Education, which then reimbursed Feeding our Future, which then reimbursed these criminals living in Minnesota who stole the $250M.
* This $250M in fraud that occurred in Minnesota all occurred under Tim Walz's watch and under Tim Walz's MN Dept of Education.
* Tim Walz's MN Dept of Education was responsible for the oversight.
* The audit report confirms all of this and was very damning:
Feeding Our Future audit finds Minnesota Dept. of Education's oversight "created opportunities for fraud"
The 120-page report details the ways in which the department failed to act on prior warning signs about the nonprofit and was ill-prepared to hold Feeding Our Future accountable even before the pandemic struck.
