INVESTIGATION OF CALIFORNIA HAS BEGUN AS SURGICAL TRUTH BOMBS ABOUT CORRUPTION INBOUND

Nick Shirley at the Door

Thanks to a 23 year-old kid with a cell phone exposing the multi-billion Somali welfare fraud in Minnesota – Nick Shirley — the Trump administration’s tactical information operation delivered a surgical “truth bomb” on the Somali-Ilhan Omar-Tampon Tim Walz scams, triggering a nationwide uproar.

Labeled “Traitor Tim” by Elon Musk, Walz’s political career is toast. All signs suggest this informational-warfare playbook is now being refined, with California in the crosshairs.

What is most embarrassing for Tim Walz and the Democrat Party is that an amateur citizen journalist so easily outmaneuvered them. But it was more than Nick Shirley’s reporting; there were ongoing federal investigations, private investigators, local politicians, and whistleblowers who had spent years trying to expose Somali-linked welfare fraud that could exceed $18 billion.

Timing is important, given the upcoming midterm election. This is what was exposed. X user Saggezza Eterna summarized the situation in Minnesota.

It should also be noted that City Journal’s Christopher Rufo launched the initial offensive against Walz and local Democrats in late November.

Now, with Trump directing efforts to focus on California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-CA) alleges that the Golden State could become “the fraud capital of America.”

Newsom denies California is the Fraud Capital of America, saying “Kiley is wrong.” But it was the nonpartisan State Auditor who found he lost track of $24 billion in homelessness funds, allowed $32 billion in unemployment fraud, and doubled the number of “high-risk” agencies. pic.twitter.com/0cskCOiEEY

But wait, there’s more…

In fact, lots more.  If you live in California, you want to vote for Steve Hilton for Governor, in the June primary and November general (Newscum is term-limited).

With Newscum’s California in Trump’s gunsights, Trump’s DOGE-style operations will spread to other deep-blue states as the year progresses, given how recklessly the Democrat Party has prioritized illegal aliens while spending taxpayer funds like drunken sailors on LSD on gargantuanly fraudulent welfare scams.

There is also speculation that Elon Musk could return to DOGE at the federal level this year.

He had dinner with Trump and Melania last weekend, which only adds to that speculation.
