Gov. Newsom Threatens Arrest for Investigating Somali Daycare FraudNewsom's position is that it's fine to investigate fraud everywhere... except when Somali Muslims do it.March 24, 2026 by Daniel Greenfield 
CBS News was just able to run an investigation of hospice fraud on the same familiar grounds, addresses with dozens of facilities and no physical presence, massive charges and no clients. Nick Shirley, who usually tags along after everyone else does the work, did his own viral video. And none of those people are being threatened with arrest.
The press account for Gov. Gavin Newsom however did threaten to arrest anyone investigating daycare fraud. “Pro-tip: Daycares aren’t content farms. If you show up demanding access to film children, don’t be surprised when the cops show up.”
Various state and local officials in California, Oregon and Minnesota had already been issuing such threats for a while. Earlier this month, California Attorney General Rob Bonta threatened to use ‘hate crime’ laws to protect Somali day cares.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced Feb. 23, 2026, that hate crime resources are now available in the Somali language following reports that Somali childcare providers have been subjected to harassment, stalking and intimidation at their homes and workplaces.
