But Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, she joined Face the Nation with one of our faves, Margaret Brennan, and she says that the Trump administration is targeting the Somalis for no reason.

Watch.

Treasury Secretary Besant called Minnesota ground zero for what may be the most egregious welfare scam in our nation's history to date.

85 of the 98 people who were charged by the Justice Department with this welfare scheme are Somali.

And you know this.

The Treasury Secretary is probing whether any of the money was somehow funneled outside the country.

He actually issued new standards.

He's going to make someone disclose if they receive public assistance when they try to wire money out of the country.

And he's lowered the bar for suspicious activity.

What is the practical impact of doing that in the community?

The level of terror, creating fear.

Again, nobody has to be afraid if they are a law-abiding American citizen.

If you're an American citizen, have no fear.

If you're law-abiding, have no fear.

So for her to insinuate that the Trump administration is going in there for no reason at all is absurd.

She kind of said, well, the Biden administration got them on the COVID fraud and

You know, those people went to jail.

So so it's all good.

So they arrested those people.

But that means that nothing else.
