One of the best lines of 2025:

This is more like waking up, stepping over a dead body in your living room, and announcing you’re “monitoring the situation” while making coffee.

Thanks, Jenna!

Meanwhile, physicians are being investigated (for Medicaid and Medicare fraud) for improper "coding" and other nitpicky offenses. Another reason I left the system and refuse to take govt or insurance payment for my services. I experienced a Medicare fraud investigation when I worked for an addiction company that committed fraud by ordering too many urine drug screens on patients. I was ultimately cleared, but I believe the owners did some prison time. I do not condone what they did, as a standard $5 cup is usually sufficient and they were sending the $1000 version for Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement. (I saw none of that money, to be clear) Obviously, this "fraud" pales in comparison to the Minnesota assclownery.

Amen, Dr. Rutherford to you and your correct actions. I applaud you and all those in your tribe who really do stand for health.

Is it any wonder I moved out of Minnesota so that my tax dollars wouldn't be supporting this corruption?

I'm leaving Massachusetts in about two weeks. That's another state that should be investigated for corruption. They won't even do the citizen mandated audit.

Glad you got away! I'm leaving Vermont because I'm sick of the ever increasing taxes that only seem to support growing homelessness, drug addiction, and mental illness. The more money government throws at a problem, the bigger the problem gets.

Unfortunately there are still people who believe that "more government" is the solution.

Given how much "federal money" is involved we are all supporting this corruption. Reclaiming this money should allow prisons to be built and staffed to house the people supposedly housing the un-housed.

From a liberal Minnesota politician's perspective, the millions/billions of other people's money "invested" in Somalian voters is, while expensive, still other people's money.

That immigrant refugee infrastructure was designed to destroy the United States. The "nice".way to say this is "Cloward-Piven":

---

Those who enter our country illegally, and those who employ them, disrespect the rule of law. And because we live in an age where terrorists are challenging our borders, we simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, and unchecked. Americans are right to demand better border security and better enforcement of the immigration laws" —President Obama

Why the judas said this:

Bloomberg: Headline: Venezuela's Violent Deaths Fall to 22-Year Low on Migration

Text: Venezuela's rate of violent deaths dropped to its lowest level in more than two decades following years of massive migration as both criminals and victims fled the nation's economic crisis. —Archived Source: https://archive.is/JOaY9

Jobs gone, wages destroyed, coffers emptied, criminals who hate us surrounding us. We need to fix this by getting local control and evicting them...

This is one of the “silver linings” of Convid/Scamdemic! It’s very hard to find and then point out the sweet, sweet cherries, but here we are revealing (yet) another massive fraud/ grift and the honour goes to a citizen journalist!

I believe MSM is on life support, so let’s give it one last massive kick to ensure it’s dead! Forever! Full stop 🛑

It’s now official. We are a third world banana republic. We have no functioning MSM, corruption is on speed dial to any and all politicians, and we are officially bankrupt. Bankrupt in every facet know to mankind.

This makes me very happy, actually. Now we tear down the filthiest and rebuild. Period. Full stop. Mic drop.

I cannot wait to see what is uncovered here in Ohio.

Governor DeSwine cannot be gone fast enough.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Jenna and friends! That's a great picture of the family!

Can you imagine how much other corruption hasn't been uncovered? It's literally everywhere. Our family is dealing with this type of corruption on the local level as well and we are being forced to pick up and move our family so we don't have to worry about any potential health issues with our little ones. It's terribly sad that there are people in all parts of the government that put profits over people and that is why we are in this mess in the first place.

2026 will be a year of mass awakening and I hope and pray that we can all come together on a local level to build a more compassionate and loving world based on common sense and critical thinking.

On a seemingly random note, if you all don't know about the flock cameras that our local cities are buying and putting up all over our cities for surveillance and tracking, it is worth your time. Not only can our governments track and trace us, but random people that can login to these cameras because of multiple security flaws can too! How lovely. https://youtu.be/vU1-uiUlHTo

He has done an impressive piece of independent journalism. The Internet and his own motivation made this possible. There are always people like this to step into the frey. Thank God!

I truly pity the honorable upstanding citizens of Minnesota that this kind thing was basically shoved down their unwitting throats. This Somali crap has got to be stopped for so very many reasons. And start by deporting Ilhan Omar.

MN gal here.. Beyond frustrating & so deeply harmful. In the constant push of MN liberal’s claim to moral supremacy, I have to drive through neighborhoods blanketed with “no human is illegal” signs, of course rainbows & BLM ones too. While at the same time having to practice extreme Hypervigilance to make sure I’m not carjacked at gun point, just sitting at a red light, by one of the groups of roaming, armed, Somalian teen gangs.

When getting/taking something for free is considered “success” in their minds, this is what happens… Makes me just cry.. My beloved Minneapolis is unrecognizable…

This is just so sad and angering at the same time. Y'all don't deserve this crap. Hopefully, with this recent exposure, real action will happen to start the process of restoring your beautiful state to its original beauty and standards.

I wish. I don't see that ever happening. I know too many people who don't seem to care how bad, how expensive, how unlivable cities and states become to vote differently. Blue no matter who--forever. It's a mental illness.

i used to go to Minneapolis a few times a year for business. I loved it. People were so friendly and welcoming. I thought the politics were a little crazy because of Jesse Ventura. He was pretty conservative compared to the ones who followed him.

No doubt, Shirley is doing a great service. But what of his collaborator David, who was apparently ignored for 5 years?

The Somali Pirate culture thrives in Minnesota. Over 100 million views of Shirley’s expose. The Democrats and their Media can’t cover this one up. Will the DOJ actually do anything?

I love your family picture, Jenna! I also had all my adult kids in one place, plus a couple of in-law kids, but I forgot to take a picture. Because of course I did. In my defense, I was just soaking up the time with them.

The best ever 2026 to you Jenna and your family. Thanks for your wit and truth.

I had to get up and walk around at times reading this because every statistic just blew the top of my head off. I may have to quit coffee for a few days before I watch Nicks expose. The uselessness and frankly disgusting lack of any morality in all of this, including politicians and MSM is hard to really grasp. I’m ready for a guillotine solution. Roll out the tumbrels. Fill em up. Rhetorically and metaphorically of course. Maybe. Not just Minnesota either. Harm to children certainly is right up there. In the entire left. My vote is all of the above. The buttons didn’t work for me but I’m having problems with Substack.

Couldn't answer the poll, because the correct answer is, 'not shocked at all.'

John Wright's avatar

For those of us in Minnesota, this isn't "news" or a "shock". Many of us started laying plans to move out of Minnesota in 2021 but as far as I know of my group of friends only myself and one other couple have successfully gotten out of there. Many are still "talking about it".

Jenna - glad you and your family have been together for the holidays! I'm also glad you plan to continue to relax and restore. This article is important so thanks for taking the time to do it. I hope Nick and his team continue the work that his elders should have been doing. Others will step up too. This ain't over...
