So the Trump administration is looking at a report that recently uncovered billions of dollars of taxpayer fraud.
And dozens of Somalis from Minneapolis have been charged in this.
In one of the cases of this fraud, to give you an example, there was a group that was taking COVID funds from taxpayers that was supposed to be used to feed children.
And this ended up actually going to pay for properties overseas in places like Kenya and Turkey.
And it was also going to buy lavish luxury cars for children.
the leaders of these so-called nonprofits that, you know, these people were funneling this taxpayer money through.
