Hello, everyone.
Are you ready to dive into this year? The significant focus for 2026 has kicked off!
Let’s pursue it.
You don’t dislike them enough.
It wasn’t exactly groundbreaking stuff, which perhaps explains the stir it caused.
Nick Shirley’s video on daycare and healthcare providers in Somalia has gained over 140 million views on Twitter. I haven’t even looked at his YouTube, but you get the gist.
From a journalistic standpoint, it wasn’t anything extravagant. He merely examined publicly available government payment records to identify who received funding, and then visited the businesses to verify their legitimacy. That’s all—he just knocked, asked questions.
There wasn’t any solid confirmation on anything. Did the business seem legitimate? That was the main inquiry, and usually, the answer was clearly no.
Then came the liberal media. Their take on the story was quite different. The saying, “You can’t hate enough to hate,” doesn’t really apply here either.
What was their tactic, given they have resources Shirley lacks—billions in funding, the power to investigate, and well-compensated journalists? They targeted Nick Shirley, a 23-year-old with a YouTube channel.
CNN confronted Shirley in public. (He was quite amusing in his new hoodie that said “Quality Learning Center.”)
“How do you know the claims you’re making are true?” Whitney Wilson asked.
Shirley replied, “We showed you what’s happening. Feel free to analyze it yourself.”
In other words, he trusts everyday viewers to interpret the video and form their own opinions.
Wilson tried several angles after that. One strategy was to make the fraud investigations seem old and well-known. The best lies often contain elements of truth. While it’s true that there have been around 80 indictments—remarkable, right?
“Then why did I visit numerous daycare centers in Minnesota and find no children? They were taking millions. We uncovered a $110 million fraud in just one day,” Shirley countered.
This isn’t hypothetical, Whitney. As Shirley pointed out, it’s ongoing and visible to the public. Does prosecuting those past 80 cases mean we don’t need to continue addressing current fraud?
CNN aired footage of Whitney “calling” the daycare center Shirley had visited. They managed to reach one, which they assured her was legitimate.
So, dear reader, the case is closed!
They even showed her making the call from her hotel room.
Good investigative skills there, Whitney. Truly impressive.
Throughout their coverage, CNN labeled Shirley as a “MAGA influencer,” “right-wing,” and “anti-immigrant,” which seems to be the standard approach to divert attention from the actual story.
Local media joined in too. The Minnesota Star Tribune, run by a former appointee of Mr. Walz, reported that government officials believed the “learning” center Shirley visited had already shut down.
Well, that seems to wrap it up, doesn’t it? Not quite. The center eventually told officials it would remain open. The day after, they apparently “dropped off” children for local media coverage.
The center’s owner and manager tried hard to appear as if nothing untoward was occurring.
How often do men run daycare centers? It’s curious. Essentially, all the centers in his article were managed and owned by men. A lot of red flags there, right?
Feel free to examine that.
The Intercept completely avoided the fraud issue, writing instead about how Shirley got it wrong. They claimed he held “anti-immigrant” and “right-wing” views and flirted with “conspiracy.”
In this case, I can’t help but notice it seems these daycare centers are generously contributing to the Democratic Party. Odd, isn’t it?
Don’t let that worry you. MSDNC has their own version where Trump is portrayed negatively. Their guest to deliver this was Mara Gay from the New York Times editorial board.
She stated, “[The Somali] community is being scapegoated for the far right.”
Or, perhaps consider this, Mara: the hijab-wearing Somali woman who fumbles through “cheating is bad,” may just be a criminal who extorts taxpayer money. Should she be deported for that, Mara?
Can you think about that, or is it too much?
Probably not. Gay is known for her opinions. During the 2020 Democratic primary, she suggested Bloomberg’s $500 million ad spend would have been better spent giving every American $1 million. I doubt basic math is a requirement in journalism school, right, Mara?
Her newspaper labeled Shirley as a “self-proclaimed citizen journalist.”
“No matter how impressive your title is, it won’t hold if it has ‘About Me’ in it,” wrote Nellie Bowles from the Free Press. Apparently, interviewing people requires a journalist badge from a secret society of journalism. Nick Shirley didn’t attend journalism school; perhaps someone should take his microphone!
Reader, you get the picture. You can’t dislike these people enough.
But the pressing question is, why? Why are they so intent on undermining Shirley and distracting Americans?
🚨 Nursery schools donated with tax dollars to Somali candidates in other states:
Starlight Daycare LLC is a Minneapolis-based daycare that has received more than $52,000 in tax payments over two years.
Donated $1,000 to Mohammad Yigal, the Somali mayor of SeaTac in Washington.

Similar things are happening in Washington.
🚨 Roughly 80% of disclosed Washington campaign donations made by people with “child care” listed as their occupation in 2025 went to Seattle Port Commissioner Hamdi Mohamed of Somalia.

Reports indicate similar fraud attempts in Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, and Massachusetts. Funds are funneled through fake daycares and then redirected back to Democrats.
Isn’t that peculiar? It’s as if the Democrats who have control over these laws know exactly how effective this spending is.
And their media partners seem eager to attack the 23-year-old to cover it all up.
