Outrage from Republicans and the MAGA universe against Minnesota continues to simmer as the FBI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) probe the state over alleged fraud schemes. Why it matters: Trump administration officials have been arguing that Minnesota has become a hotbed of fraud and they've singled out the state's large Somali community as a driver of it.

A YouTube video purporting to show day care facilities that aren’t operational but received state and federal funding went viral over the weekend.

FBI Director Kash Patel said Sunday the agency is continuing to investigate alleged fraud in Minnesota, as Republicans have seized on the allegations to attack the state’s Somali population and Democratic Gov. Tim Walz.

Recently the Minnesota Department of Human Services announced that it would be adding another layer of verification for Medicaid payments to prevent fraud.

The Department of Homeland Security says it is knocking on doors at more than 30 sites in Minneapolis in an effort to rout out businesses that may be collecting taxpayer money fraudulently. It comes after a viral video made by a right-wing YouTuber reignited interest in the issue.
