Tim Walz and Ilhan Omar Tied to ‘Biggest Theft of Taxpayer Dollars In US History’
Federal officials say a sweeping fraud investigation in Minnesota has revealed what they describe as the largest theft of taxpayer money in United States history, involving more than $1 billion in public funds and at least 86 suspects.
The case centers largely on Somali refugee communities in the state and has drawn national attention following comments from senior White House officials and escalating questions for state and federal leaders.
Authorities announced that the suspects allegedly created or operated companies that billed Minnesota for social services that were never provided.
According to federal investigators, the schemes touched programs intended to feed children, provide homeless services, and support autism therapy. Officials say the fraud was carried out across three separate operations that submitted millions in false invoices.
Public records and photographs show that some of the individuals charged had appeared in images with Representative Ilhan Omar and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.
Both were photographed with Abdul Dahir Ibrahim, who was taken into Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody on Friday.
Fox News reported that he had previously been convicted in Canada of asylum and welfare fraud.
“We believe the state government is fully complicit in this scheme, and we believe that what we uncover is going to shock the American people,” he said.
Miller also stated that prosecutors believe “the Somali fraud operation in Minnesota is the single greatest theft of taxpayer dollars through welfare fraud in American history.”
Speaking with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Miller said investigators “believe that we’ve only scratched the very top of the surface of how deep this goes,” adding that the Trump administration is examining whether any of the stolen funds were funneled to terrorist groups, including Somalia-based Al-Shabaab.
He said current figures suggest that 75 percent of the Somali population in Minnesota is on welfare, calling that estimate an understated picture of the financial burden on public systems.
A Somalian who ran for the Minneapolis City Council in Nov 2023 Nasri Warsame is now being exposed by other Somalians for committing immigration fraud alongside his siblings. His brother was reportedly brought to the U.S. through “Ilhan style” marriage fraud. As witness explain: “His sister illegally brought him to the U.S by claiming that he was her husband.” This case involves multiple fake identities, fake marriages, and immigration violations all used to enter and stay in the U.S.

A Somali non-profit continued received hundreds of thousands in taxpayer funds even after its Board Chairman was charged in 2023 for defrauding Medicaid of millions. There are hundreds of stories like this due to failed oversight by Tim Walz.

A California health‑care executive, Cashmir Chinedu Luke, 66, was arrested at San Francisco International Airport while attempting to board a flight to Nigeria. Prosecutors accuse him of using his company, Four Corners Health LLC, to defraud the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) of more than $7 million in reimbursement payments for in‑home care services that were allegedly never provided. Court filings allege that between December 2019 and July 2024, Luke submitted roughly 10,000 false claims, including billing for services on days when caretakers were not present, inflating hours worked, duplicate billing, and even billing for care after some veterans had died. Investigators say Luke controlled the billing personally as the company’s sole owner and billing representative, and that the funds allegedly obtained were used for personal expenses or transferred through bank accounts overseas. If convicted, Luke could face up to 10 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. The case is being prosecuted by federal authorities and remains under investigation by the VA’s Office of Inspector General.
Dozens of illegals each month are arrested for healthcare fraud in the MILLIONS. Most are let go. Like this guy will be.
If he was white, a jewbie judge would give him a 100 years at least. This guy will get probation and flee, because he already moved all 7 million overseas ahead of time, as he was stealing it.
