GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP for finally terminating deportation protections for Somali Muslim criminals, terrorism-supporters, and welfare-cheats in Minnesota

President Trump announced Friday that he will end temporary protected status for “Somalis in Minnesota” over rampant fraud in the state, which he attributed to “Somali gangs.”  “Minnesota, under Governor Waltz, is a hub of fraudulent money laundering activity,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

NY Post (h/t Nita) In an X post aimed at a detractor, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), who is Somali American, noted the limited impact Trump’s announcement will have on Minnesota’s roughly 37,000 Somali-born residents.

“I am a citizen and so are majority of Somalis in America,” Omar wrote. “Good luck celebrating a policy change that really doesn’t have much impact on the Somalis you love to hate. We are here to stay.”

Trump’s move to remove protections for Somalis comes after years of targeting Somali immigrants in every campaign cycle in Minnesota since he first ran for president in 2016. The state has become a destination for Somali immigrants in recent decades dating back to the 1990s.

Not surprisingly, Hamas-linked CAIR in Minnesota is outraged over Trump’s wise decision.

The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) condemned the decision, calling it a direct attack on Somali and Muslim communities. Executive Director Jaylani Hussein said the move “will tear families apart” and described Trump’s message as politically motivated and driven by harmful stereotypes.

New reporting from Christopher Rufo and Ryan Thorpe provides evidence that Minnesota taxpayer dollars are being funneled by Somali immigrants to Al Shabaab, the East African branches of Al Qaeda.

NY Post Trump’s move to end TPS for Somalis comes after City Journal reported that millions of dollars in taxpayer money – stolen as part of a series of massive Minnesota welfare fraud schemes – may have been funneled to Somalia-based terror group al-Shabaab.

The report, citing former state fraud investigators, state lawmakers and federal counterterrorism officials, noted that the vast majority of the defendants in several of the high-profile fraud scandals are Somali or Somali American.

The money makes its way to the terror group, sometimes unintentionally, when the ill-gotten welfare funds are sent to Somalia by Somalis committing fraud in Minnesota, according to the report.
