The Trump administration announced it is pausing all childcare payments to Minnesota in light of explosive revelations about Somali-saturated fraud rings siphoning billions from federal welfare programs. (snip) The truth is, affordable childcare is itself a scam. The billions spent on daycare result in worse outcomes for society than if these programs never existed. Industry researchers have known and lied about this for decades. Yes, that makes them frauds too, and their mark -- is there any other mark on the planet? -- the endlessly spigoted American taxpayer.

Adult Day Care Centers As Medicaid Fraud
Concerns Mount 10 replies
Just four of the locations have received nearly $7 million in combined taxpayer funds since 2020. Prompted by a flood of tips from readers about facilities that tipsters say do not appear to be providing services, Alpha News reporters Liz Collin and Jenna Gloeb visited more than a dozen autism centers and adult daycare businesses across the Twin Cities during posted business hours on Monday, Dec. 15. No children were observed at any of the autism centers visited. Only a few workers and a small number of elderly women were seen at the adult day care facilities. Many of the locations seemed empty.
The Washington state attorney general released a statement on X Tuesday evening warning independent journalists to sop investigating fraudulent Somali daycare centers or they could be charged with a hare crime. (snip) "Showing up on someone's porch, threatening, or harassing them isn't an investigation. Neither is filming minors who may be in the home. This is unsafe and potentially dangerous behavior. Harmeet Dhillon, the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, issued a warning of her own in reaction to the Washington state AG's post. "Any state official who chills or threatens to chill a journalists 1A rights will have some 'splainin to do"

Arabella Advisors, a for-profit company that managed services for many influential dark money nonprofits on the left is no more -- or so it seems. Sunflower Services, a new public benefit corporation, announced on Monday that it will be acquiring "Arabella Advisors' fiscal sponsorship servicing business." Meanwhile, Arabella's former CEO, Himesh Bhise, announced he would lead a supposedly new company, Vital Impact.
Daycare centers that receive hundreds of thousands in taxpayer subsidies did not appear to have any children when The Center Square visited the facilities this week and were either openly hostile or told journalists that they were hoping to have children in their care, but did not have an application available or anyone to talk with about enrolling a child. The focus on Washington's taxpayer subsidized daycares comes at the time federal authorities are conducting what they call a "massive" investigation into Somali-run facilities in Washington.
Former Special Counsel Jack Smith told the House Judiciary Committee in a closed-door deposition earlier this month that he did not believe the testimony of former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson (snip.) The House Judiciary Committee subpoenaed Smith for the testimony earlier this month, which took place on Dec. 17. Smith told the Committee that he had evaluated Hutchinson's testimony which he had considered using in his prosecution of Trump over the 2020 election, but decided that it relied too much on hearsay. Smith said (snip) that he would have moved to prohibit her testimony from being used if he cross-examined her in court (snip.)
"A Somali-run day care is claiming somebody broke in and stole "important documents" as the national spotlight shines on the unfolding multibillion-dollar fraud involving Minnesota human services. Nasrulah Mohamed, manager of Nakomis Daycare Center, told reporters that a suspect entered through the kitchen at the rear of the facility, damaging a wall and breaking into the building's office, sometime Tuesday. He said the alleged prowler stole "important documentation" including children's enrollment information, employee documentation and checkbooks. Mohamed blamed last week's viral video by You Tuber Nick Shirley (snip) Nakomis Day Care Center was not one of the facilities featured in Shirley's video (snip.)
The Justice Department is buried in about 5.2 million pages of documents potentially related to notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein -- and it might take until late January to complete the review. The latest figure, reported by the New York Times on Tuesday, indicates the task before DOJ is even more daunting than the department signaled it would be last week, when it revealed "over a million" pages of possible Epstein files material had been uncovered by the Manhattan U.S. attorney's office.
California residents will be impacted by more than 900 new laws effective January 1, 2026. Because we need 900 new laws in the leading regulatory hell state in the nation. Because the cost of living in California is so high, Democrat lawmakers think increasing the minimum wage to $16.90 per hour will help hourly workers afford a median-priced $900,000 home. Even if that hourly-worker put in a full-time year, they will only make $35,152, which is less than $3,000 monthly, which barely covers the cost of a studio apartment.

Jessica Tarlov, Fox News' resident liberal panelist on The Five, has demonstrated her lack of intelligence once again. When independent reporter Nick Shirley's explosive investigation into alleged fraud at Somali daycare centers in Minnesota came up for discussion, Tarlov questioned the scope of his findings while missing the point so spectacularly that I felt compelled to highlight it. (Snip)Tarlov actually questioned whether Shirley, working mainly on his own, could have genuinely uncovered the full scale of the alleged fraud. "Nick Shirley's reporting — there's no way that this kid walking around uncovered $100 million worth of fraud on his own,"
The U.S. Postal Service has updated its rules to clarify that postmarks may not match the date mail was deposited, a shift stemming from network overhauls that could complicate deadlines for tax filings, ballots, and legal documents.
The change, which became effective on December 24, adds a new section to the Domestic Mail Manual stating that “… while the presence of a postmark on a mailpiece confirms that the Postal Service was in possession of the mailpiece on the date of the postmark’s inscription, the postmark date does not inherently or necessarily align with the date on which the Postal Service first accepted possession of the mailpiece.”
Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead,” network medical analyst Jonathan Reiner said he was very concerned the public is not being told “anything meaningful” about President Donald Trump’s health issues.
Host Phil Mattingly said, “Just last month, you said you were seriously concerned about the president’s health. What’s your level of concern after hearing from the president? He says he’s in perfect health.”
Reiner said, “Well, I’m mostly concerned that the public really hasn’t been told essentially anything meaningful about the president’s health here. So let’s turn the clock back and look what’s gone on over the last nine months. The president had a physical exam, a comprehensive physical exam

Imagine waking up tomorrow to find your bank account empty. Every dollar you saved for your children’s tuition, your retirement, your security—gone. Now imagine looking out the window and seeing the thief driving a Porsche bought with your money, laughing as he waves a government-issued thank you note. This is not a hypothetical scenario. It is the reality of the American taxpayer in the wake of the single largest COVID-era fraud scheme in the nation’s history.

New Year's tradition of black-eyed peas
without warning 26 replies
For generations across the South, black-eyed peas have traditionally been served on New Year's Day. The dish is associated with a "mystical and mythical power to bring good luck" in the year ahead, according to writer John Egerton in his book "Southern Food: At Home, On the Road, In History." For years, Cracker Barrel served as a reliable last stop for displaced Southerners trying to uphold a New Year's Day tradition. If black-eyed peas weren't simmering at home, they could be ordered alongside cornbread and country sides.
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani didn't back down from his campaign promises as he was inaugurated at City Hall on a blustery New Year's Day: He said he would tax the rich, make buses free, and deliver "abundance." (Snip) The new mayor didn't shirk from his socialist identity upon taking office, vowing to draw the city together by replacing "the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism." "We will govern without shame and insecurity, making no apology for what we believe. I was elected as a democratic socialist and I will govern as a democratic socialist. I will
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) said it succinctly on Wednesday, commenting on the news that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani intended to be sworn in on the Qur’an: “The enemy is inside the gates.”
Newsmax reported Thursday that in saying this, Tuberville had “ignited a fresh political firestorm.” It was just over two weeks ago that he ignited the last one, writing that “Islam is not a religion. It's a cult. Islamists aren't here to assimilate. They're here to conquer. Stop worrying about offending the pearl clutchers. We've got to SEND THEM HOME NOW or we'll become the United Caliphate of America.”
According to Newsmax, Mamdani’s use of the Qur’an
On Thursday, Zohran Mamdani was inaugurated as the Mayor of New York City.
As we reported, his "block party" seemed to be a harbinger of things to come and a symbol of his failed radical leftist thought, with no bathrooms and no food. It was the first day, and already his administration was a big fail. The people are already finding out that he isn't going to be what they thought. Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14) spoke before Mamdani. But she set the stage for the radical remarks, outlining some of his promises. “New York City has chosen the ambitious pursuit of universal childcare, affordable rents and housing, and clean
Democratic Virginia Governor-elect Abigail Spanberger has appointed a chief diversity officer who previously appeared to agree with comments about parts of the U.S. Constitution needing to be dismantled.
Spanberger announced the appointment of Dr. Sesha Joi Moon to serve as the Commonwealth of Virginia’s chief diversity officer and director of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) on Tuesday, saying in a statement that Moon’s “experience across government, education, and the nonprofit sectors gives her firsthand insight into the ways in which we can build a stronger, safer, and more prosperous Virginia for every family.” However, during part of an August 2024 appearance on Raben’s “The Ask” podcast, Moon appeared to agree

The Maine Wire website has an interesting video on illicit Chinese triad marijuana grows in that state. Problems include upward pressure on rents because large numbers of rental houses were converted to grows, widespread use of pesticides banned in the U.S. (for a product designed to be smoked!), and compromised politicians.
