00:00Hi everyone. Welcome back to the channel. So today we're covering the story that's
00:07been blowing up on Reddit and across national news.
00:13The allegations of fraud involving Somali-run daycare centers in Minnesota. The issue has
00:20packed heated debates online. The federal investigators are now involved. Independent
00:27journalist Nick Shirley posted a viral video in December 2025 alleging that several daycare
00:33centers in Minnesota reported live-run by Somali-Americans who are receiving millions
00:39in taxpayer funds despite appearing empty. The video claimed at least $27 million in fraudulent
00:48payments since 2020. Though state records show the centers had active licenses,
00:56federal agents, including Homeland Security and the FBI, have since intensified investigations,
01:05visiting suspected sites and pledging more resources. So Reddit has exploded with discussions on users'
01:12expressed outrage over alleged misuse of funds, while others warned against stereotyping the
01:19Somali-run community. But what's the reality? Minnesota officials, including
01:24Governor Tim Walz, actually think calls for accountability. So personally, I find the story troubling but also
01:31complicated. On one hand, a fraud really concerned occurs. It's a betrayal of public trust and
01:40hurt families who genuinely need childcare support. On the other hand, I worry about how quickly online
01:49discussions can stigmatize an entire community is important to separate alleged wrongdoings from broader
02:00stereotypes. So this is actually the whole information about it. Thanks for watching and goodbye.
02:05Bye.
02:12Bye.
02:13Bye.
