A key figure in Minnesota‘s sprawling Somali-linked fraud scandal was sentenced to 30 years behind bars on Wednesday.

He operated Safari Restaurant in Minneapolis, which specialized in dishes from Somalia, and is where Congresswoman Ilhan Omar held her 2018 campaign victory party.
Prosecutors said he vastly overstated the number of meals he was providing hungry children when seeking payment from the government through COVID-19 programs.
The U.S. has ordered federal civilian agencies to stop purchasing services and products developed by Chinese AI startup DeepSeek and remove them from government IT systems over national security concerns tied to the Chinese AI startup’s operations in China, according to the Department of Homeland Security. The order goes beyond banning DeepSeek’s own product, and covers third-party products and services built using DeepSeek technology, though agencies can request exceptions.
The DHS raised concerns about DeepSeek’s handling of user data, warning that sensitive information from U.S. government users could potentially be accessible to Chinese authorities under Chinese law, the order said.
The move comes amid intensifying tech competition in AI between the U.S. and China. The Chinese AI model challenges its U.S. rivals, including OpenAI and Meta, with low-cost open-weight models.
China pushed back against the U.S.’s move. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said Tuesday that Beijing opposes “overstretching the concept of national security and politicizing technology and trade issues,” according to an official briefing.
Dr Mehmet Oz visited New York City where he claimed the ‘Chinese mafia’ may be orchestrating Medicaid fraud through senior care centers.
Oz’s endeavors came the same day Donald Trump and JD Vance announced a $25 million program to encourage the public to blow the whistle on suspected fraud in government.
The former TV host and current Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator delivered letters of warning to senior centers in Flushing, Queens as part of a multi-agency federal probe.
Oz took part in two of the over 80 visits that took place, many of which included arrests, in the Big Apple Tuesday as he challenged employees about their billing records and how they were spending taxpayer funds.

While the manager claimed 200 seniors came in three days a week and 150 on the other two days a week, Oz said he only could see 25.
‘The numbers don’t seem to add up,’ Oz said after their director claimed some patients were in classes or off at doctor’s appointments.
Oz believes that the fraud goes deeper, into criminal networks and even the ‘Chinese mafia’ paying some people over $1,000 to help facilitate the attendance scams that help centers overcharge the government.
‘We know from the billing here that there’s no way this business is running in the way that they claim to be running without something being wrong,’ he said.
He claimed that seeing the issue hundreds of times keeps it from being ‘an innocent mistake.
1) It’s not just ‘the government’ doing this; 2) in addition to energy weapons, many people are also lobotomized, poisoned, subjected to sensory damage and more; 3) we are being controlled by elite groups who disable anyone who is stronger or smarter than them or who may be perceived as a threat; 4) or who they are simply jealous of; 5) disablement is their primary MO; 6) they do also murder people, CK being a prime example; 7) but in most cases disabling is more effective since it creates a living reminder to their community that opposing mind-control, or just noticing it, is a dangerous path; and 8) it is very hard to prove what happened to the person who has been disabled or driven crazy. When a civilization has been infiltrated on many levels, these are the tactics they used to get there and are still using today. ABN
The way Israel dismantled and controlled the United States will be studied for centuries.
Bribe politicians
Remove barriers to mass immigration
Establish welfare state for mass immigration paid for by White people
Give low IQ violent retards not only “equal rights” but preferred rights over White men paying for their welfare
Tell violent retards their failures are the White man’s fault even though they fail MUCH worse in their own countries without every encountering White men.
Remove the US off the gold standard where you can just steal unlimited wealth from working Americans via inflation
Now that you can just print money, send hundreds of billions to Israel
Who then use that money to turn around and bribe US politicians
Commit false flags in coordination with US intelligence to garner support for forever wars against Israel enemies.
Spend TRILLIONS on forever wars and send thousands of mostly White young men to die while ZERO Israelis fight or die for their own war
African migrants took over the MaineCare Section 21 homes. They’ve made hundreds of millions of dollars. Patients have been and are being abused systemically.
Now that The Maine Wire is exposing the fraud, the houses are closing — and the state has no plan for the disabled adults who are now being thrown out on the streets.
Four migrant-run autism companies (running dozens of houses) have been shuttered for fraud. We’re aware of two more that are now closing.
This means dozens and dozens of disabled adults are being displaced and abandoned by the government. Mills is AWOL. DHHS Sec. Sarah Gagne-Holmes is apparently sick on extended leave (but not too sick to go to a Hannah Pingree’s fundraiser a few weeks ago).
