WATCH: “The Single Greatest Theft of Taxpayer Dollars Through Welfare Fraud in American History” – Stephen Miller GOES OFF on Somali Fraud in Minnesota, Says State Government is “Fully Complicit” and Will be EXPOSED

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller eviscerated the Democrats and Minnesota politicians during a Friday appearance on Fox News with Sean Hannity, declaring the Somali welfare fraud in Minnesota “the single greatest theft of taxpayer dollars through welfare fraud in American history.”

“We believe that we have only scratched the very top of the surface of how deep this goes,” Miller said, vowing that the federal government will “make sure that those responsible are held accountable.”

“The total bill, the total tab for this, is going to be far beyond the numbers we’ve already seen reported. We believe the state government is fully complicit in this scheme, and we believe that what we are going to uncover is going to shock the American people.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, 70 members of the Somali community in Minnesota were involved in stealing $250 million in COVID funds that were intended to feed children. Millions of dollars were stolen from American taxpayers and sent overseas to Somalia, and 80% of the money has not been recovered.

Seven defendants were tried in connection with the scheme on charges related to stealing more than $40 million in taxpayer funds, and five were found guilty. However, the FBI is still investigating an attempt by a Somali woman to bribe one of the jurors with $120,000 in cash.

But the fraud goes deeper, with multiple schemes like this over the last five years.

Per the New York Times, “Federal prosecutors say that 59 people have been convicted in those schemes so far, and that more than $1 billion in taxpayers’ money has been stolen in three plots they are investigating.”

And the Somali community is engaged in multifaceted fraud in the welfare system wherever money is available. “75% of the Somali population in Minnesota is on welfare. But that’s likely a significant undercount of just how much of a financial burden the Somali refugee population is imposing on this country,” Miller said.

“This scandal is gonna rock the core of Minnesota politics and American politics. We are going to be able to show through, whether it be willful blindness, whether it be deliberately turning the other way, or whether it be direct knowledge, we are going to show how Democrat politicians, Democrat bureaucracies, Democrat political systems, and the Somali refugee population ripped off the American people, stole countless taxpayer dollars and engaged in scams that boggle the mind, scams that we can scarcely even conceive of or imagine in their brazenness!”

WATCH:

Miller: Based on what we have found so far, we believe that the Somali fraud operation in Minnesota is the single greatest theft of taxpayer dollars through welfare fraud in American history. We believe that we have only scratched the very top of the surface of how deep this goes, and you’re familiar with all the scams, with pretending that children have autism who are not, in fact, autistic, with pretending to enroll people in food programs, when in fact nobody was ever enrolled, and engaging in massive fraud, lying, and theft, and grift on a scale we’ve never seen before in American history.

The total bill, the total tab for this, is going to be far beyond the numbers we’ve already seen reported. We believe the state government is fully complicit in this scheme, and we believe that what we are going to uncover is going to shock the American people. Look, based on the records that we already have— this is a significant undercount by the way— 75% of the Somali population in Minnesota is on welfare. But that’s likely a significant undercount of just how much of a financial burden the Somali refugee population is imposing on this country

Hannity: Governor Walz was warned by whistleblowers. He was told. You saw the dismissive attitude of the Attorney General. Congresswoman Omar is on defense, but apparently is associated with people, or at least people around her clearly seem to be involved, not been proven yet, but very defensive at this time. Do you believe all of them that this will apply to all of them, their lack of concern, the amount of money involved, any possible protection that they offered?

Miller: Yeah, I think you’re gonna see all of this, Sean. This scandal is gonna rock the core of Minnesota politics and American politics. We are going to be able to show through, whether it be willful blindness, whether it be deliberately turning the other way, or whether it be direct knowledge, we are going to show how Democrat politicians, Democrat bureaucracies, Democrat political systems, and the Somali refugee population ripped off the American people, stole countless taxpayer dollars and engaged in scams that boggle the mind, scams that we can scarcely even conceive of or imagine in their brazenness!

This truly underscores the extent to which the Democrat Party has used migration as a weapon against the American people to gain political power at the expense of American citizens, stealing their money, stealing their votes, stealing their sovereignty. This is going to be case in point for the argument that President Trump has made about why we must stop mass third world migration into this country. It is a tool the Democrat Party has used to rob the American people blind.
