During Covid, the federal government doled out money to provide free meals to children. It was Covid, so the government decided to abandon any pretense of preventing fraud — and plenty of people noticed immediately.
In Minnesota, members of the Somali community built one of the largest fraud operations in US history. They fabricated ludicrously fake tallies of prepared meals, then pocketed $250 million in taxpayer cash — millions of which went overseas to Somalia. 80% of the money was never recovered.
Now, the perpetrators are on trial, and one juror had $120,000 in cash dropped at her door, with more promises if she voted to acquit. The defense, meanwhile, is hiring college professors to lecture that scamming the government and sending suitcases full of cash abroad is a part of Somali culture, and trying to stop them is of course “racist.”
In the 20th century Minnesotans were famous for their upright morals and civic-mindedness.
Their stereotype in the 21st century is becoming something else entirely.

Project 2025 - Wikipedia
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025
Project 2025, also known as the Presidential Transition Project, is a collection of right-wing policy proposals from The Heritage Foundation to reshape the U.S. federal government in the event of a Republican victory in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Established in 2022, the project aims to recruit tens of thousands of conservatives to the District of Columbia to replace existing federal civil servants—whom Republicans characterize as part of the "deep state"—and to further the objectives of the next Republican president. It adopts a maximalist version of the unitary executive theory, a disputed interpretation of Article II of the Constitution of the United States, which asserts that the president has absolute power over the executive branch upon inauguration
