Amid an ongoing fraud scandal in Minnesota and a nationwide immigration crackdown, President Trump has recently taken aim at Somali immigrants, describing them in disparaging terms and saying they're "ripping off our country." Asked about Mr. Trump's comments and whether legal Somali immigrants should be worried, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told CBS News in an exclusive interview, "I'm focused on policing the streets, not policing President Trump's words."
Noem has deployed 2,000 agents to the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul to conduct immigration raids and assist in the widening fraud investigation.
Asked how she justified the expense to the taxpayers of sending that many agents in, Noem said, "The American taxpayer is grateful that that resource allocation has been put here. We've never seen this kind of fraudulence and abuse of programs before in recent history."
Over the past three years, prosecutors in the area have charged more than 90 people with fraud, 78 of whom were arrested in connection with a fraud scheme involving a nonprofit called Feeding Our Future, which was supposed to help feed vulnerable children during the COVID-19 pandemic. A majority of those charged in that scheme are Somali Americans, although the program's leader, Aimee Bock, who was convicted earlier this year, is not.

She needs to "police" herself and the rest of the criminal administration.

In between Botox injections, spa treatments, and spackle applications to her face, not to mention her numerous photo-ops for her "Kristi Noem Action Figure" series, the poor woman has precious little time for anything else. It's all she can do to keep up with her puppy shooting these days!
She's only one woman, for God's sake.
