Excerpt:
You know that sinking feeling when officials try to sweep a scandal under the rug, but the truth keeps bubbling up? That’s the Minnesota “ghost” daycare saga, where independent journalist Nick Shirley’s viral video exposed empty centers billing millions in subsidies, and now state officials are scrambling with a response that smells like a cover-up. On Monday, December 29, 2025, Department of Children, Youth and Families Commissioner Tikki Brown claimed past visits found no fraud, with unannounced checks showing kids present and numbers “consistent” with expectations. But hold on—the New York Post sent a reporter to the infamous “Quality Learing Center” (yes, misspelled), and guess what? After Shirley’s video went viral, the parking lot was suddenly “bustling with kids” on Monday, despite a local saying, “We’ve never seen kids go in there until today. That parking lot is empty all the time, and I was under the impression that place is permanently closed.” About 20 kids were seen “streaming in and out,” a far cry from the 99 supposed to be there, as Shirley noted.
I will say. The Somali community is very loyal to eachother.
This guy needed help, so they mobilized an army to keep the fraud going.
Remarkable.
