BREAKING: President Trump announced a anti-fraud program that would pay people who expose fraud 1% of the money recovered. “If you find $1 billion, we are giving a commission to that person of 1%,” he said.

🚨 BREAKING: Looters are now BREAKING INTO HOMES in Paris — and it was only a matter of time
Absolutely NOBODY is coming to help the Parisians either.
This is why you NEVER give up your guns. The government will NOT be there for you.

Pray for France.
Oh wait, wrong clip. This is the aftermath of the Minneapolis riots, after Tim Walz and his top advisor, Peggy Flanagan, let the city burn for four consecutive nights.
Vote accordingly.

Multiple sources have confirmed to me that federal agents went dumpster diving to get DNA from Minnesota Congresswoman @IlhanMN and her family before the raid on her D.C. home earlier this week. Our reporting suggests investigations go far beyond simple immigration fraud.
NewsNation sources say the likely coming indictments will be stunning in nature and far beyond anything the public has understood the case to be about.

It wasn’t just Ilhan Omar…
Tim Walz was in on it.
Jacob Frey was in on it.
Tina Smith was in on it.
Tikki Brown was in on it.
Keith Ellison was in on it.
Amy Klobuchar was in on it.
Peggy Flanagan was in on it.
Etc
Every Minnesota power broker was in on the fraud.
Facts.

Somalia is 98% ethnic Somali, and Japan is 98% ethnic Japanese.
The average IQ in Somalia is 68 and in Japan, it’s 106.
The per capita murder rate in Somalia is 5.7 per 100,000 and in Japan, it’s 0.23 per 100,000, almost unheard of.
Sexual assault/rape in Somalia is 60 per 100,000 people, while in Japan, it’s 1 per 100,000 people, also unheard of.
Japan is one of the least corrupt countries in this world, while Somalia is one of the highest.
Now ask yourself this question… WHY would and do Democrats continue to push for the lowest iq, most violent, and corrupt people on Earth to import into America rather than the smarter, more civil, and least corruptible ones?

Minnesota is losing workers and college graduates to states that let people keep what they earn. We need to make our state attractive to the most mobile workforce in modern history.
If you vote Republican on November 3rd, we will champion a 10-year path to eliminate Minnesota's personal income tax — automatic rate cuts when revenues are strong, paid for by holding spending growth to inflation. No gimmicks, no tax swaps.
A few states are already on the right course. And depending on the governor's race just south of the border, Iowa is on track to be the next state to eliminate the income tax for working families.
We can't compete with South Dakota and Iowa while charging some of the highest income taxes in the nation. Time to set a course for freedom.

Minnesota has a workforce problem, and this map explains why.
A new analysis of lifetime income taxes found that the average Minnesota worker will pay $759,000 in federal and state income taxes over a 45-year career. That's the 5th highest in America — higher than California.
The same worker in South Dakota? $325,000.
Read that again: $434,000 more — for the same career, the same work, the same life. Just a different state on your tax return.
Now ask the question every Minnesota employer is asking: why would a 22-year-old college graduate move here to start a career?
And remote work makes it worse. This is the most mobile generation in American history. A young professional can take a Twin Cities salary and live in Sioux Falls, Austin, or Tampa — keep the paycheck, skip nearly half a million in taxes. The math isn't even close.
I love Minnesota. We've got the best workers, the best schools, the best lakes, the strongest communities in America. But our tax code punishes exactly the people we need most — young workers starting out, families trying to build something.
We don't have a talent problem. We have a policy problem. And it's fixable: win a trifecta, cut taxes, and start letting families keep more of their hard-earned money. Then watch them choose Minnesota.

🚨 1 can of Spam for $120.
Food stamps have become the new ATM for fraudsters as they partner with local businesses to commit the fraud as they trade SNAP cards like Pokémon cards on the streets.
Across America food stamp fraud is happening everywhere. It has become a billion dollar fraudulent industry as taxpayers fund the $100 billion program.
We caught a fraudster on the streets of Seattle as she attempted to buy a can of spam and sushi for $120 in a food stamp for cash exchange, it’s a billion dollar fraudulent scheme stealing from the poor and hungry. This is a must watch and is happening everywhere.
EXPOSE AND SHUT IT ALL DOWN.
Imagine the reason your high school homecoming dance was canceled was because of Somali gangs. And you live in Minnesota. The United States.
Let's hear you debate instead of hearing you express your love for Trump. Do something useful for MN for once.

Ilhan Omar championed the MEALS Act, which helped open the floodgates for hundreds of millions of dollars in fraud.
Now we’re finding out that people connected to Peggy Flanagan are being investigated for potential fraud.
Pairing these two radicals together in Washington, D.C. sounds like a terrible idea. The Federal earmarks sound like a disaster.
They will make the fraud even worse.

Pricing Scam: Licensed pharmacist compares ibuprofen tablets bought at CVS and at Aldi
- CVS Ibuprofen is $9.59 for 100 tablets
- Aldi is $1.69 for 100 tablets
Both are 200mg. When you open them up and inspect them, they’re exactly the same tablet. Same stamp, they came out of the exact same factory
- The imprint I-2 / I2 on 200 mg ibuprofen is a known generic mark
- A factory manufacturers a batch of these pills
- They then get packed and labeled for different retailers
Same exact pill, just different packaging and pricing depending on what store
This is what’s know as private labeling in retail
CVS charges a premium for the “pharmacy trust” factor
Most people would agree this feels like a scam
"evidence-based decision making." - you cannot be serious Tim!?
For nine years Minnesota has ranked as a national leader in evidence-based decision making.
That’s nine years of data driven investments in the things that matter most - like paid leave, school meals, and our nation-leading child tax credit.

Lisa Demuth had an excellent interview with Esme Murphy. Lisa brought the receipts against Amy Klobuchar.
WCCO played the news for the audience before Lisa went on and it is absolutely clear that Minnesota needs a change and fast. The status quo is not ok.

WATCH: Republican gubernatorial candidate Lisa Demuth calls for capping car tab fees at $99 in Minnesota
"Right now, the rate Minnesotans pay to register their automobile depends on a formula that almost nobody can really explain," Demuth said.
What do you think of this idea?

Let’s see how Minnesota’s left-wing media is melting down over our post from last week from a fairgoer…
Really an interesting take on “doxxing,” @StarTribune. Remember when you posted pictures of my house 37 times in YOUR (alleged) “newspaper” for more than a year? So doxxing didn’t matter then? Got it.
SUBMITTED: Minnesota State Fair seed art includes an “8647” entry.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw it, but there it was on day one for thousands of people to see,” the tipster said.
When it was reported to the fair, the person was told “it follows freedom of speech which is outrageous,” they said.
@AlphaNews has also reached out for comment.
