Is This The Worst Scandal In Minnesota History?
2018-05-15
[Center For American Experiment] It is certainly a contender. Fox 9 television uncovers a far-reaching scandal: last year, more than $100 million in cash left the Twin Cities airport in carry-on luggage, bound for the Middle East and Africa:
This story begins at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, where mysterious suitcases filled with cash have become a common carry-on.

On the morning of March 15, Fox 9 chased a tip about a man who was leaving the country. Sources said he took a carry-on bag through security that was packed with $1 million in cash. Travelers can do that, as long as they fill out the proper government forms.

Fox 9 learned that these cloak-and-dagger scenarios now happen almost weekly at MSP. The money is usually headed to the Middle East, Dubai and points beyond. Sources said last year alone, more than $100 million in cash left MSP in carry-on luggage.

Where does the money come from, and where is it going?
It was coming from Hawalas, businesses used to courier money to countries that have no official banking system.

Some immigrant communities rely on Hawalas to send funds to help impoverished relatives back home.

[Former Seattle police detective Glen] Kerns discovered some of the money was being funneled to a Hawala in the region of Somalia that is controlled by the al Shabaab terrorist group.

Great. But the real scandal is where the money came from in the first place‐welfare fraud:

#9  Truth be told, the libs, msm and mn dfl will not go after islamic terrorists because, they aren't Christians. White Christians.

Bottom line. And our Governor Dem Mark Dayton knew for sure about some of this crap. Minn Repubs are meeting at the capital today to try and figure out how much he knew.

Little late for the minnesota GOP to grow spines. If they ever had any and that's a big if.

#8  It is amazing that the Islamic radicals are very clear about their goals and yet the left just doesn't believe them (or hope the crocodile will eat them last).

#5  Known wolves. Won't do anything till someone gets hurt. Why 'dry' up financing in the Gulf only to have it originate out of our own shores?

#4  Bloomberg - Look at What's Going to Happen to Sweden's Fabled Welfare State

Sweden’s got a major supply and demand problem.

Its fabled welfare state is forecast to need an extra 208,000 employees by 2025 just to keep up with growing demand. Trouble is, only 207,000 workers are projected to join the country’s entire labor force (comprising both the private and public sector) over the same period.

#3  Our politicians are well aware of all of this and permit it to continue. It's happening more rapidly in Europe than here, but the truth of the matter is we're being replaced.

Similar to any ponzi scheme, large government structures require large, ever expanding constituencies. If we refuse to reproduce and grow the base, we will be replaced with those who will.

#1  First of all I can't believe that the fraud leftists at Fox 9 covered this. The same lib tv rag that refused to cover the Mall of America jihadi stabber admitting in open court mind you, that his attack was jihad.

The same for the earlier Saint Cloud Islamist stabbing. The exact talking head anchor's quote, "he was referencing god". For shit sake the jihadist was running through the stores asking people if they were Christians, muslims the screaming allah fubar!

Of course the next day Somali CAIR was there and so was Fox 9.

Like all the other Twin Cities TV news fraud stations, CAIR is there go to "islamophobia" experts.

Not forgetting how somalis terrorized Mall of America shoppers after Ramadan. Running in mass through the mall screaming. (See Chaos Breaks out at Mall of America During Islamic Celebration)
And several Minneapolis neighborhoods have been terrorized by somalis driving up and down their streets threatening the lives of the locals. Of course the Minneapolis PD refused to arrest them. (See MINNESOTA: MOB OF SOMALIS RAGE Through Upscale Neighborhood Threatening To “Kidnap” And “Rape” Homeowners [VIDEO])


So welfare monies heading for jihad, that much? Aside from arabs going to the Mayo clinic, Minnesota muzzies are in no way flush with that much cash.

One way the Somalis defraud the counties and state is by claiming someone else's new babies as their own dependents for what? More welfare case. Something I accidentally ran into myself in the Anoka County court building.

My mother and I were riding in an elevator when an older 50ish somali man and a very young somali girl with a newborn came on. Mom asked the girl how old her baby was. Without going into details, she had no idea. None. So when she go off I tagged alone.

The girl went to a welfare entry desk and explained in broken English how she had a new baby and wanted more "benefits". And when do the cash EBT payments stop? They don't.

After 9-11 there was an independent law enforcement lecture held. One of the topics that came up was what do the Minnesota somalis do with their dead? The on stage folks admitted, they had no idea.

Another cash flow comes from somali "grocery stores". They literally have little if no inventory but stacks upon stacks of old newspapers. All the paper sale coupons are clipped out.

Then there was the FBI head here that had attended muslim group gatherings with guests that were known jihad supporters. Powerline covered that story.

I honestly doubt Fox 9 will follow up, nor the other media here. The Tribune might. Despite being a DFL paper they do some interesting deep reporting.
