Starting point is 00:00:00 Did you ever think you would make it? I said I'm supposed to taste sweetly. I know this life meant for me. Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever signs. Right here. You are a one of one?
Starting point is 00:00:19 My son's right there. I think I've ever said this before. So imagine it's Christmas. We're all mining our own business. And everybody starts texting you. Watch this video, watch this video, watch this video. I'm like, I'll get to it later. I'll get to it later.
Starting point is 00:00:35 And eventually I watched the video, and I start texting everybody. Watch this video, watch this video, watch this video. Next thing, you know, becomes a top 10 most viewed video. Some are saying top five, some are saying top 10, nearly 150 million views after being uploaded a day after Christmas. And he created so much havoc that he made journalists start working. Come on, why would you do such a thing? CNN had to work.
Starting point is 00:01:01 They came after him yesterday. Everybody's trying to find that. They call them mega YouTuber. They call them Islamophob. They call them all this other subs. Listen, why don't you just fly down here? Let's sit down to a podcast and talk about what you just did. And we have the one and only Nick Shirley in the house.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Thank you for having me. It's great to have you on. 23 years old and you're doing this. Yeah, it's been the craziest week of my life these past week or so. So I want to learn about you, but first tell us why has it been the crazy week of your life this week? Yeah, so I've been doing YouTube and doing what I've been doing for years now
Starting point is 00:01:33 for at least two years consistently at this point. But this week, I've hit a new level as far as what I produced and put out on the internet is the most viewed video by any other creator that's not named Mr. Beast for a long-form video. Like, seriously. Seriously, I've never seen a video
Starting point is 00:01:53 at 131 million views on X. How many followers? When I watch it, when he first posted, you had a couple hundred thousand followers on X. What are you at now? Now I'm about to hit a million. You're about to hit a million. Just in the last four days. Why do you think the world and why do you think America's reacting the way that it has?
Starting point is 00:02:11 I think what I covered in Minnesota with the fraud that took place, and the way I produced it is a way where really I didn't make it a left-right issue. I just presented the information as it was and just went to the locations to where the fraud was happening. And I went and talked to the people, well, I at least tried to for those that were running the daycares. And you're seeing that the millions of dollars and the billions of dollars that have been defrauded from the people of Minnesota and from people of the United States, you could physically see where that money was going, right? We had all the numbers. We had all the evidence. And these people can even answer simple questions or give you a brochure to sign up my son little Joey for a daycare.
Starting point is 00:02:49 Yeah, I love when he says. So my son little Joey cannot go to this daycare. And everybody's like, I had no idea. And they had a son named Joey at 23. I'm like, guys, I don't think he has a son named Joey. He's just trying to find that if they're going to let the guy in. By the way, here's the power of where social media does today. 23 years old, you go and find out for yourself.
Starting point is 00:03:11 You're not waiting on ABC, CNN, CBS, any of these guys. You go ask questions. After asking questions yesterday, I believe it is, was it HHS, Rob, that came out yesterday? If I'm not mistaken, they came out yesterday and they stopped $185 million of funding to Minneapolis because of the video you posted. So watch this, folks. This is a byproduct of what Nick Shirley did on December 26th. Go ahead, Rob. Hello, I'm HHS Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neill.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I'm here with Assistant Secretary Alex Adams. Alex oversees the administration for children and families. Intrepid journalists have made shocking and credible allegations. of extensive fraud in Minnesota's child care programs. We believe the state of Minnesota has allowed scammers and fake daycares to siphon millions of taxpayer dollars over the past decade. My office, ACF, provides Minnesota $185 million
Starting point is 00:04:08 in child care funds each year. That money should be helping 19,000 American children, including toddlers and infants. Any dollar stolen by fraudsters is stolen from those children. Yesterday, I spoke directly with the director of the Minnesota Child Care Services Office. she could not tell me with confidence whether those allegations of fraud are isolated or whether there's fraud stretching statewide. Today we have taken three direct actions against the blatant fraud that seems to be rampant in Minnesota.
Starting point is 00:04:36 First, I have activated our defend-the-spend system for all ACF child care payments across America. Starting today, we require a justification, receipt, or photo evidence before we make a payment. You can stop it right. Second. So the idea is $185 million stop because you independently, out there and created this content, exposed it to everybody. And then allegedly, was it, was it today that CNN came after it? Was it yesterday? Yeah. Today they put a heap hit piece out on me. And when did they interview? When did CNN come an interview? Yesterday. Yesterday they did.
Starting point is 00:05:08 Yesterday I showed up at Quality Learing Center. Is this the one? Yes. So this is you, you show up, you're in Minnesota yesterday. Yes. At the Quality Learing Center, we got to say it correctly. By the way, his sweater he's got on. If you guys want to purchase the sweater, we're going to put the link below as well to the quality leering center. It's becoming a hot commodity. Rob, let's make sure you put the link below as well to support what he's doing here. But here's CNN. It doesn't look like they're happy for you doing their work.
Starting point is 00:05:34 When they first came up to you, were they friendly? Were they nice to you? What was the approach that they took? Yeah, the lady came up to me very friendly. And then she kept asking me these questions. I'm like, man, you're defending fraud. Like, what are you talking about? Like, the issue is, the issue wasn't what time I showed up to the daycare.
Starting point is 00:05:51 that this building right here is receiving $1.9 million, and it's not even operating. And they're showing face right now, while they're literally shuffling in kids, while the commissioner of children is saying the daycare was closed last week. That's pretty wild. Okay, so play this clip, Rob. Go ahead. This is MAGA YouTuber. Maca YouTuber.
Starting point is 00:06:12 Back at a daycare in Minnesota, he alleged was a fraudulent facility in a now viral video. Are you going to say this is a left or right issue? But no, fraud is fraud. I'm not out here trying to put a twist on things. Shirley's viral video released over the weekend in which he says he's uncovering tens of millions of dollars in fraud at Minneapolis daycares run by the Somali community was retweeted by Elon Musk and Vice President J.D. Vance. In the video, Shirley tries to open locked doors and talk to people at various daycares he claims are frauds. Did you come during their normal operating hours when you came to visit? I came at 11 a.m. I believe. And I also came the following day later in the day. The point of it is not whether or not I came at the right time of their operation hours. The point is that blacked outdoors. They can't give you any information. You call that number. No one answers. I wasn't trying to go inside. There should be a way for somebody to actually be able to call that number and somebody to be able to answer. These aren't real businesses. But surely you don't think a daycare should just be unlocked. You shouldn't be able to just walk into a daycare.
Starting point is 00:07:12 There should be a reception. No. Every daycare. care is locked. And so, okay, you bring you up fair point, then why can't they actually give me information how to enroll a child? Federal law enforcement has been investigating fraud in Minnesota for several years. Both Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI director Cash Patel said on social media they've indicted dozens of defendants. DHS has posted multiple videos of agents they say are conducting a massive fraud investigation. Do you think that federal law enforcement hasn't done enough. I mean, they would say, look, these fraud cases have been going on, but they've already done like 80 indictments, the cases have been going on. So funny. They're defending Trump now.
Starting point is 00:07:50 I show up one day in Minnesota and go to all these daycares, no children. They're receiving millions of dollars. We encourage you nearly a hundred million, 110 million dollars on fraud in one day. How do you know that all the allegations that you're making are true? How do I know that they're true? Well, we showed you guys the, we showed you guys what was happening and then you guys can go ahead and make your own analysis. We're coming, so we can make our analysis. Are you are 100% sure you're true? Yeah, I am 100% sure. Sure. I'm true. CNN is looking into Shirley's claims. Hi, my name's Whitney Wild. I'm a correspondent for CNN. We reached out to several of the daycares featured in the now viral video. Only one daycare facility answered and said they are. She's validating your point. Have you seen that the videos, you know, purporting that some of these daycares don't have kids inside? Minnesota Republicans say despite the new focus from the Trump administration, they have been sounding the alarm on fraud for years. You know, we have talked about fraud. We have. gotten stories. We have we've tried to push this forward every way that we can. You can
Starting point is 00:08:47 pause right that. So this is yesterday in Minnesota. Yeah, yesterday in Minnesota. Wow. And and you went back to Minnesota because you just told me that you're working on a part two yourself. Yeah, because there's a lot more fraud. How much more did you find? Oh, we found a lot more businesses that don't exist. There's millions of dollars. We found a lot more. We found daycares with more million dollar daycares. I mean, there's literally hundreds of daycares receiving millions of dollars in Minnesota at this moment as we speak so from the first one you guys were over a hundred million dollars of fraud that you found right with the second one now that the recent one that you were there yesterday how much more did you guys find yesterday um i have to do all the
Starting point is 00:09:27 numbers which i'll do when i do my all my editing but at least around at least another 10 million dollars 10 million bucks okay so on the other side while you're doing this what caused you and you we see this man named David, right? We keep seeing this man named David, who I think yesterday, he said, if you want to output $100,000 for anybody that can prove any of this wrong, because this is government document, how did you and David, if, Rob, is this the clip where he says that? Yeah. Do you want to play this clip of David? No, don't call any patterns. Anybody want to take me up? You'll be $100,000.
Starting point is 00:10:01 $100,000. I can disprove my information. So, give me a time of what you have, and I can get it to my entire thing. 100,000, 100,000, 100,000, 100,000. How are you going page by face? Come on, girl. Just keep you a video on it. And just screenshot it while you're going.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Let me know where you got it. All those people are, they're defending the fraud. And he gives them the option. They're defending the fraud. Yes. They're not on your side. No. How many of those people are on your side right there?
Starting point is 00:10:32 None of those people you're hearing in the background. Just you and David and the camera guy? Just me and Dave. Yeah, I was my cameraman. So who's recording you? there. That's somebody doing a live stream. From them. That's not even yours. That's that Kadra Abshir that's recording it.
Starting point is 00:10:45 Yes. Got it. So they're recording you and he's offering $100,000 to go prove if any of these things are wrong. Yes. So how did you and David get linked up? David messaged me on Instagram and out of the hundreds of DMs I get, I just
Starting point is 00:11:01 opened David's and he had all the proof because I've known about the fraud happening for so long in Minnesota since back in June I've known about the fraud but it's hard for me to go out and get all the information because they make it very hard to get the information. Luckily, David had somebody inside the Capitol who's been leaking them all the numbers, leaking him all the information. Somebody from the Capitol in Minnesota.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Yes. So all the numbers that David has are 100% correct. And also they're on the state, also they're from the government, from the state. But David told me he knew the numbers. And I said, okay, I'm coming to Minnesota. Let's do this video. Line out some of the daycares you like to go see because I know about the fraud. I knew that the fraud was happening.
Starting point is 00:11:40 I just needed somebody like David to come that's lived it to be able to really solidify my claims and my ideas about the fraud that's happening. And you saw the video. Everything we said was true. And this is David explaining the fraud, right? Rob, this is in front of Minnesota. Go for it.
Starting point is 00:11:59 Massive fraud is going on here in the state of Minnesota, especially in Minneapolis. Explain to me what's going on with the daycares. So one of the things that I've noticed is there's an exceptional number of child care centers that are set up mostly in Minneapolis but also in St. Paul. And I said, wow, this, I mean, how many kids are there in the Twin Cities? Some of them are by my office and I would watch and I said, well, there aren't any kids there. And I'd go to another one, there are any kids there. And I'd see just some guys, some Somali guys outside smoking cigarettes.
Starting point is 00:12:32 So I stopped at one of them. And I said, hey, I'm just wondering, I've got a grandson who's looking for child care and I wonder if this might be a good facility and they said no we're all full we're all full and they had the door open and I looked and there were no kids there was like a couch and a table with a couple chairs and I said well are the kids out back playing or what kind of place is this and the guy said you go you go and he almost pushed me out the door and then he followed me down the street to my car and that's when I said wait a minute there's something going on here and that's got to be maybe five years ago this fraud is so massive. When the dust settles
Starting point is 00:13:10 on this, it's going to be found to be the largest fraud in the history of the country and probably the world. It's that big. The ones that I... Is that true? That genetics is that's genetics right there? Is that mom? Yes, my mom. So now good for you. You got great genes.
Starting point is 00:13:25 You know, she's very comfortable doing this as well. Very cool. So the largest fraud in the world, in America on what he's talking about. I hope we get to the bottom of this. So you and David get linked up and then you just said, why don't we just go interview. That's kind of how it started. Yeah, I thought when we go, like, we'll walk
Starting point is 00:13:42 these daycares, we'll talk to them. But the first daycare we go to, all the windows are blacked out. And I tried to open the door and nobody answered. I ring the doorbell, nobody answered. And that daycare, they had two daycares running out of that same building, and they had both had two different contracts of more than a million dollars for these daycares. And I was very shocked to see that the response from the public after that was, oh, why is he going and knocking on these doors because millions of dollars are going there we have a responsibility to know where our dollars are going but it just went to show that the fraud is insane and then the people are saying well that daycare is closed well how can there's a sign that says it's open seven days a
Starting point is 00:14:19 week from seven a m to 10 p.m. Is that what it says yeah? So the one that the CNN reporter claimed that you came after business hours that you said you came at 11 to 5 o'clock they have a sign that says they're open Monday through Sunday that one right there the first part in the video open seven days a week What is, Zoom in a little bit, Rob, can you? I can't because it's a video, but it says open seven days a week, 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. It says that right on the sign. Right there.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Got it. This is the Mako, what is it called? Mako Child Care Center. Yeah. Is that another misspelled Mako or is that really the name? I don't know, but what's funny about that is there's actually two child care companies inside that same building, but they're not showing the second one. And so they have two child care businesses operating that same room.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Within the same place. Yes. And how much money are they getting? This one together over the past few years. They have it right there. But combined, they received over $5 million. Stop it. Just that one building alone.
Starting point is 00:15:13 And so what is the business model? Somebody just stays there all day, no kids, and they just take the cash? Yeah, that's why all the windows are all boarded up, or why they're all blacked out. Now, let me ask you, Nick. There was a video from 2019. Is it 2019-2020? You know the video where parents would come, drop off the kids, and then take the kids out a minute later, not even drop them off. Come in, register, then they leave.
Starting point is 00:15:35 You know which video I'm talking about, Rob? And allegedly, they were getting paid. That's the one right there. What year is that video from? It says 2015, March 31st of 2015. This is from 15 that they've been doing this. So this is a surveillance. Maybe you can narrate to the audience what's going on here.
Starting point is 00:15:55 Yes, so basically what they're doing inside these daycares, I don't doubt that there's one or two or a few children inside these daycares. It'd be very stupid to be receiving millions of dollars and not bring at least a few kids to day care every day. Right. But what they're doing here is they're bringing them children, and then they're then just leaving after a few minutes of being inside the daycare. And I don't know if this is the same video where it shows the guy giving the cash to the ladies working. Do you have the audio on there? So there is one that says, that's the, they're shown that. Oh, there it is.
Starting point is 00:16:24 He's handing the cash. He's handing the cash. He's handing out envelopes of what are believed to be kickback payments to parents who are in on the fraud. Where was the money going? I don't know exactly where it went. but it order for the scheme to work the daycare center you gotta be kidding me so I'll come in I register my kids
Starting point is 00:16:43 you're able to write them off to make money off and you send that to the Minnesota government hey have this many kids then they get paid then they come and give a kick back to the parents yes so the problem with this is these parents are no longer going to get payments and someone's going to call somebody out And this has been happening for over a decade.
Starting point is 00:17:05 It's not like this is a new thing that's happening. How many whistleblowers have been emailing you, DM in you, texting you, getting a hold of you? How many more whistleblowers have gotten a hold of you and David? Yeah, so many people have been reaching out that has been almost overwhelming to go through all the messages. But the people of Minnesota are so fed up with this fraud because now finally somebody is actually getting it out to the national level
Starting point is 00:17:26 because local journalists have been talking about it for years, but they've never been able to get it out to a national level like I was able to do. And so just the millions of dollars, and if you talk about why they're just giving them cash, it's because the money they receive is tax-exempt, C-CAP funding, and then these women that are working inside these daycares, they're not, I, my assumption is that they're not actually on payroll, and that's why 81% of the Somali populations on welfare inside the state of Minnesota,
Starting point is 00:17:55 is because they don't actually receive a W-2 or 1099, whatever it would be, to claim that they're actually receiving an income. because if you're running a daycare of a million dollars, you should be able to pay your person a salary of at least $50,000, you know what I mean? But none of that is documented. No, not that I know of, because it doesn't make sense
Starting point is 00:18:12 why there's so many people on welfare if they're making millions of dollars. Yeah, so the first day this came out, you know, people on Twitter were talking about it. The second day, silence. The third day, Cash Patel responds to it, and I'm sure you saw the tweet on here, hey, the FBI is a word of recent social media reports in Minnesota.
Starting point is 00:18:30 However, even before the... public conversation escalated online. The FBI had searched. So he sends this tweet, right? It's the span of $250 million on fraud, et cetera, et cetera. And then finally, it got to a point that it was so viral that everybody had to cover it. And they barely
Starting point is 00:18:45 started covering it yesterday. I don't even think they did on the 29th. I think they started on the 30th. CNN, ABC, CBS, a lot of this other stuff. Has Cash Patel or anybody from the White House reached out to you yet? No. Cash Patel hasn't. other people have reached out as far as like,
Starting point is 00:19:02 hey, do you want to come with us to see what's happening or do you want to see what's happening? A lot of people have sent me messages on X. I mean, Mike Johnson was talking about it. JD Vance talked about it. Attorney General Pam Bondi talked about it. Everyone's talking about it. I mean, literally the GOP was using a video
Starting point is 00:19:19 referencing my video on their Instagram yesterday. The GOP was? The GOP official Instagram account. I mean, look, the vice president responded. This dude has done more useful journalists. than any of the winners of the 2024 Pulitzer Center Prize, the VP is given you. But the FBI hasn't reached out to you at all.
Starting point is 00:19:38 No. I mean, I think I can't, there's been so many people that have messaged me, but there's people who are wondering how I got my information from the government. And I've been willing to say, like, yeah, I got from David. If you want to talk to David, here's David's contact info. But I don't know how the government doesn't have all this information. It's kind of like surprising to me.
Starting point is 00:20:01 So you're surprised that the government doesn't have this information. Yeah, they're reaching out to me to figure out what's going on. A few of them are. Really? Yeah. Pretty high up of high officials? Not the high officials, but the departments. Departments are reaching out to you to see how you got it.
Starting point is 00:20:15 Yeah. So are they reaching out to you asking how you got it because they want to catch the person that's blowing the whistle? Or are they reaching out to you because they want to actually find out the work that you're doing? like some access to the information that they don't have themselves. Well, I think they're trying to figure out how to go about this fraud because it's so big and so massive because it's not just the daycares, it's the home health cares, it's the transportation companies, it's the people, it's the translators at the hospitals. It's so vast and big that the network is massive.
Starting point is 00:20:47 So I think they're trying to get an understanding of how big it is. And that's why you hear them talking about, we've had fraud for years. Tim Waltz literally admits to the fraud. He's been talking about fraud for, he admit to fraud yesterday. and he said it's been happening for years. Okay, if it's been happening for years, why don't you stop it? He said this yesterday. There was the one clip that he moved the flag,
Starting point is 00:21:07 and there's a whole thing about how Minnesota changed its flag to look pretty much identical to Somali's flag. Somalia's flag. If you've not seen this, take a look at this. First, this is the clip of that. You can play this clip, and then we can go match in the flag. Old flag to the new flag. So this is the old Minnesota flag.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Right, Rob, that's the Minnesota flag, the old one, and he replaces it with the new flag. I believe that's the new Minnesota flag. I don't think that Somalia's, but I think that's their new flag. But if you go to the picture next to you on X, you see how it says go next? No, right there, right there. Yeah, look at that. They change their picture. That's the old Minnesota flag on the top left.
Starting point is 00:21:51 The bottom left is the new Minnesota flag. And then go look at Somalia's flag on the right. You tell me if you see any similarities. So they changed their flag. Minnesota, nicest people in the world is what they're supposed to be, to the Somalia flag. And then Tim Walts is sitting out there talking about that they've been dealing with this for many years. Yet he was bragging, if you have that one clip when he was debating with J.D. Vance, that they're opening up to most daycare centers and record-breaking daycare centers.
Starting point is 00:22:22 And they're doing such a good job. This was in the debate, folks. Watch this. We in Minnesota passed a paid family medical leave. You have a child, you. And I had to go back to work five days after my kids were born. This allows you to stay home a certain amount of time. What we know is that gets the child off to a better start.
Starting point is 00:22:39 The family works better. We stay in their employers. We get more consistency in that. So Kamala Harris has made it a priority. We implemented it in Minnesota and we see growth. That's how you become a pro-business state. And so a paid family medical leave program, and I will tell you, go to the families or go to the businesses and ask them.
Starting point is 00:22:57 As far as child care on this, you have to take it at both the supply and the demand side. You can't expect the most important people in our lives to take either our children or our parents to get paid the least amount of money. And we have to make it easier for folks to be able to get into that business and then to make sure that folks are able to pay for that.
Starting point is 00:23:15 We were able to do it in Minnesota, and I'm still telling you this. We were listed as the best state we're still in crisis on this. A federal program of paid family medical leave and help with this, we'll enhance our workforce, enhance our families, and make it easier to have the children that you want.
Starting point is 00:23:30 So in this debate, he challenged you. If you want to find out, go there. You took up the challenge. Yes. You went there. Took up the challenge. And maybe he shouldn't have said that. Yeah, he shouldn't have said a lot of things.
Starting point is 00:23:39 He shouldn't have said a lot of things. He's not the brightest guy. So the FBI hasn't reached out to you. You guys are continuing to go out there and do your thing. And by the way, if some of the people are watching this, if you have any questions and you want to support the work, because you have to realize, Nick, you're not part of CBS.
Starting point is 00:23:56 No. You're not ABC. You're not CNA. You're not Fox. You're not part of anybody. You're an independent journalist. A guy asked you a question, who do you work for? Myself.
Starting point is 00:24:04 You know, who pays you? Myself. You make money off YouTube, don't you? Yeah, that's how I make my money. I make my money off my YouTube channel. This is what I've been doing for many years. But if some of you guys are watching this and he want to support him, either go buy this sweater that he has here,
Starting point is 00:24:18 or number two, Menect him if you have any other questions or things that you're working on. If you want to be in contact with him, you have other information that's coming in. Imagine he's getting tens of thousands of emails and DMs right now. He can't get through everybody. But if you have something that you want to do with him, have a conversation with him. He's officially on Meneck as well, Rob. If you want to put up the QR code, it's the link below.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Are they seen it right now? Yeah, the link is in the description. So let's go back, Rob. Can you go to Nick's YouTube channel? Can you go to Nick's YouTube channel? Kind of have an interesting story. On the YouTube side. Yeah, I want to hear about it because the average person maybe who doesn't follow you,
Starting point is 00:24:53 We know who you are. We know the great work you do. But the average person who doesn't know you, can you kind of share with them your story of how you got started to eventually doing a video like this? This is not the biggest, first big video you've done on YouTube. You've done many of these. But how did you get started?
Starting point is 00:25:07 Yeah, I've been doing YouTube ever since I was a sophomore in high school. I remember 2017 to start watching people like Logan Paul or you start watching other bloggers. And I thought, well, I can do this. Like, I want to go, I want to have like this lifestyle. I want to have a fun time and be able to record these memories. So I started making YouTube videos in high school and it was just high school pranks, stunts, you name it,
Starting point is 00:25:26 sneaking into Jake Paul's wedding, doing, just like... Sneaking into Jake Paul's wedding. Yeah, just like doing the typical, like, YouTuber stuff at that time. And I had, like, a little success, but I could never, I could never reach, like, the next level. I moved to L.A., pursued YouTube. I'd do collabs with people who had 10 million views. They'd look at my analytics, and they'd be like, Nick, what's...
Starting point is 00:25:44 They'd be like, wait, how's this... How you're not blowing up? Like, all your analytics, like, should... your channel should be blowing up, but for some reason, YouTube would not push my content, no matter how good my click-through rates were, how good my attention graphs were, everything like that, they wouldn't give me an opportunity. But in hindsight, I think it was God just holding me back to help me learn and then propelling me to where I'm at now.
Starting point is 00:26:10 But based off of what I was doing on YouTube, and I kind of got really interested in the politics when I graduated high school, and I started seeing how the world was working. working and how crazy and how, especially during COVID, how people could use information against you, how they're censoring you. And I remember I started making more political videos on my YouTube channel. And anytime you'd put the word Trump in your YouTube channel or on your video, they would demonetize you, which means you can't make money. And if you can't make money, you can't do what you can't do it. And so you literally could not use Trump's name in a thumbnail or in a title and receive compensation for your work on YouTube. And then after that, I ended up going
Starting point is 00:26:49 on to a two-year mission for my church. And I made a plan on my mission exactly how I wanted to come back, what kind of it is I wanted to do. Where was the mission? In Chile, Santiago. And you said mission with the church? Yes. Which church? I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ Latter-day Saints. Let me tell you, man, that is such a massive edge. Massive edge. So, you know, they would send, I work with a lot of folks from the L.D. State presidents, a lot of guys. So I read all the Gordon B. Hinkley, John Huntsman, all these major names. The Cleon Scousen, I think, is also a LBS author. He wrote a book called The Naked Communist.
Starting point is 00:27:30 He was a former 15-year CIA, and the FBI in the CIA would come and try to learn from Mormons on how they would teach a language for somebody that would go on a mission for three weeks. Or, you know, within three weeks, four weeks, you're learning the language. How much did you go in on that mission make you fearless to be able to do the journalists? The citizen journalism you're doing right now. Yeah, I've always been fearless in a way. Like, I was the younger brother. My brother. So that's your older brother.
Starting point is 00:27:56 Yeah. Okay. So I was the younger brother, I was trying to impress my older brothers. So it's like, if you want to do a bike jump, if we're bike jumping, we're going snowboarding, Nick, you're also jumping. I love it. I love it. And, uh, but on my mission, you also, you also just talk to thousands of people and you have
Starting point is 00:28:11 such little success for how much work you put in as far as like you're talking to a thousand And people, you might get a hundred to say, yeah, let me sit down, have a discussion with you. Did you speak? How long did it take you to speak the language? I learned Spanish in about six weeks. I could start having conversations. In six weeks, you learned Spanish? Yeah, and I knew it when I was younger, and then I forgot it.
Starting point is 00:28:33 And then I learned it back up in six weeks. Can you speak now or no? Yeah, because I speak fluent Spanish. Seriously? Yeah, I could have a full-on conversation with the president. So maybe in Spanish, give a message to Tim Walz. What would you say? Tim Walz, he's very bad, very stupid.
Starting point is 00:28:47 He doesn't know how to do anything. Literally, he's very tonto, no savin' nothing. There you go, Tim Walts. If you're paying attention, that's a message here from a young 23-year-old man. So you come back from Chile, you're making a decision, what you want to do when you return with your YouTube channel, then what happens next. Yeah, so on the mission, I came out with a plan, like the videos I wanted to make because I wanted to get more into kind of showing things for what they are.
Starting point is 00:29:09 On your mission, all you do is talk to people, right? and I saw a lot of effects of mass migration, especially on my mission from people fleeing Venezuela. And so I was super curious, like, what's happening in Venezuela? How come people are, like, moving around? You always hear about migration of animals, but you never hear about humans. And so then when I come back to the U.S.,
Starting point is 00:29:28 I had no money after my mission. I had like $6,000. And so I knew I needed to make $10,000 to be able to fund my YouTube channel for a few months because I didn't think I was going to be able to make enough money for the first few months. so I knew I needed to get to $10,000. And so I went in power-washed houses for a month, made $10,000 in cash,
Starting point is 00:29:47 and then I went to Amfest and Phoenix to go interview people. I went all myself. I just set up a tripod, interviewed people, and from there I went to the border. And at the border, I was the first person to ever really go to the border and interview people as they were crossing the border in Spanish. Which one is this, by the way?
Starting point is 00:30:06 Is there the clip here if you type of Nick Shirley border? Yeah, if you just go to... Like, that's a, that's a few of them, but that wasn't the first one. Yeah, I interviewed illegal migrants at the U.S. border. This is you. Yeah. How would you hear? 21.
Starting point is 00:30:28 So this is two years ago. Yeah. You're the first person that goes there. Yeah, I'm the first person to show people that people are literally just walking over, being trafficked over, and I'm interviewing them, and these people are as proud and happy to be to be coming to the United States. It's, I was, like, fearful when I went down there, I was like, okay, how, like, aren't these people supposed to be running? Like, they just crossed over the border. Wait, they're not worried. They're just...
Starting point is 00:30:51 They were so thrilled. And then I went and watched them go sit down and get picked up and shuffled across the country. And I tracked even one of these ladies down from the border to New York City. And I tracked her down because she gave me her WhatsApp. And I was like, how did, in one day, you go from the border to America's biggest city? And then from there kind of started... yourself here, Nick. Nobody else is here with you. Yeah, I'm all by myself. Let me tell you how many millions, tens of thousands of young boys, young men are watching this saying, if this guy's
Starting point is 00:31:23 got this kind of courage, I cannot tell you how many people you're probably inspiring right now with the world, because it takes fear to do this. There's a guy, Rob, if you go to my Twitter account, there's a guy named, I don't know if you saw this tweet from him yesterday. I think you did. No, you did see it because you commented on it as well. This guy named Josh. Gerstein, okay. Josh Gerstein is somebody that's been a, go a little bit right there, right there. If you just type on his tweet, look what he says. Who is this guy? Okay, so you should know, this guy's been around. He is a, well, not, not you should know. He's a, he's an establishment mainstream media guy. At some point, the amateur effort to knock on doors of home daycares
Starting point is 00:32:05 intersects would robust stand your ground laws. So you know what he's saying? To somebody can attack you. Look what Twitter on the bottom readers added to it. Stand your ground laws remove the duty to retreat from a threat when a person is in a place. You have a legal right to be knocking on doors of a supposedly public business does not constitute a threat. So stand your ground could not be invoked as a defense. That's Twitter responding to it. If you go to my response to it above Rob, if you go to just go back one, yeah, there you go.
Starting point is 00:32:37 And I said at some point, amateurs have to do the job that professional journalists refuse to do. That's what's called courage. Can you go Google him? Can you go Google him to see who he is? Josh Gerstein, because he's not a regular guy. This is a guy that's been around the block for a while. Go to his Wikipedia. Go to maybe type it, maybe put his name on YouTube. This is a political guy. If you type his name on YouTube, you go a little bit lower. You see right there says Josh Gerstein political. He's been on media all over, you know, for many, many years. This guy is calling out a 23-year-old, which the reason why I did this is because the video you're showing me right now back on the border, go to the border video he just had up a minute ago,
Starting point is 00:33:20 it takes courage to do this. Your brother's not with you, your family's not with you, your family's not with you, not a friend is with you. No, I'm all by myself. What did your family think when you said I'm going out here to the border? A lot of times I don't tell them, especially when I'm going to go do a video. I'm sure mom loves this. I don't tell them, but I'm going to go do something until it's done.
Starting point is 00:33:38 I kind of learned that's the best way to go about things at that point. but yeah I think everyone was shocked I mean I was down there and some guy who works for border patrol he's like what are you doing like don't you know there's a cartel war on the other side the border patrol guy's telling you this yeah a guy who used to work in border patrol
Starting point is 00:33:57 he's like don't you know there's a cartel war going on the other side I'm like I don't know like I'm giving these people like food I thought these people were like starving I thought they were like coming over like just fleeing and I was like giving them food talking to him like I give a kid a shirt off my back so he could have a new shirt when he came over. Like, I thought, like, these people were, like, fleeing and coming in,
Starting point is 00:34:15 but they were just being trafficked by the cartel. And so, yeah, I just went up there and started doing journalism. And then outside of this, Rob, if you go back to his channel, it's important if you go to videos and then go to popular. Okay, video popular. Zoom in a little bit, Rob. The most popular video on YouTube you did is not even the Minnesota one. That's your sixth most popular video.
Starting point is 00:34:40 The most popular one is you went inside Sikot, the mega prison full of deadly gangsters. That's in El Salvador. Yes. Then you infiltrated Rio Brazil's most dangerous gang. That's you right there interviewing somebody. Then you went inside America's a city of zombies, Kingston, Philadelphia. Then inside world's most unconventional prison, this is again El Salvador. Then Los Angeles has fallen, anti-ice protesters take over.
Starting point is 00:35:07 And then it's the Minnesota video that you've done. For those that don't know, you've been doing this for a minute, and it's grown in the last couple years to a million subs. How many subscribers did you have on YouTube early this year in January? In January, I think I had like 300,000. 300,000 subs. But since I've been home for my mission, which has been two years, I came home.
Starting point is 00:35:26 I had 20,000 subscribers. Now I just hit 100 or 1 million, 1.2 million subscribers. 1.2 million subscribers. Unbelievable. And while you're doing this, are you seeing others that are doing, because I saw something with Ohio, right? Wasn't there something with Ohio?
Starting point is 00:35:42 Another thing with Kent Washington, are these your friends, or these are just others that are independently being inspired to do the same? Like, I wouldn't say, some of them are my friends, but a lot of them are probably just inspired
Starting point is 00:35:55 about what I'm doing, and I would say they're like fellow comrades I guess, like mutual respect for each one. I try not to give all my information to people because the reason why I've had my success is because how I go out and do stuff, so I'm not just like telling people to go and copy.
Starting point is 00:36:08 me, right? I think there's like an art form. And if you want, there's a way to be inspired, then there's a way to just copycat people. Yeah. I will tell you, either way, I think it's phenomenal. Even if other guys are same. And I want to go to what Nick does, go at it. Because you can't be in 300 places at the same time, right? You have to be in, you know, you can, I'm looking at your eyes. You know what your eyes are telling me right now? You haven't slept a lot. No, I haven't slept the past three nights. I probably slept like 10 hours. Yeah, that's what it looks like. But that's what it takes. I mean, look, here's a reality. it, folks. Let me tell you, today it's December 31st, okay? It's December 31st. It's New Year's Eve. He's not
Starting point is 00:36:47 from Fort Lauderdale, okay? What is a 23-year-old doing in a city he's not to just come on a podcast? You know, he could say, well, you know, the average 23-year-old, you know what? Why don't we do January 2nd after the New Year's? No. Hey, Nick, I want to do a podcast. I want to sit down and talk to you. Let's figure it out. I'm in Minnesota. Rob calls boom, boom, boom. He's in here in town. We're doing. These are things that, you know, most investigative journalist would do, would need to do. You would expect people like this to do it. But today, the biggest competition they have is independent journalists that are willing to go out there and be edgy, that are willing to have 10 hours of sleep in three days to expose a story. So I'm proud of the work that you're
Starting point is 00:37:31 doing. There's a lady that made a video and said, Nick Shirley, please, if you see this, did you see this video? Rob, can you play this clip? Why? this folks. Go ahead, Rob. Nick Shirley, I hope you see this video. Please come to Columbus, Ohio. The reporting you did in Minnesota was amazing. Thank you for that. And if you come to Columbus, Ohio, you will find the exact same fraud. You will see the exact same things, daycares everywhere, the home health care. I mentioned that in my video. I do not have your bravery to go out here and knock on doors like you did.
Starting point is 00:38:11 I don't even want to leave my room right now, okay? But you could come here and do what needs to be done. Please, please investigate. Please talk to our government officials. And you see how the police escorted you out of that building? The Columbus police are on the same take, I am sure. Allegedly. Let me say allegedly before I got the Columbus police coming after me as well.
Starting point is 00:38:38 it's the Somalis. It's a lot. In the meantime, please come here and investigate. You will find the exact same things. And the rest of the country needs to know that it is real. Thank you for all you are doing. And please, please, please stay safe. And by the way, this is one of many videos of people that are making asking you to come to different places. Do you, do you, do you, do you, Do you have plans? Because I'm sure you've seen the numbers while they're doing this. California wants to put a 5% tax on the wealthy. And then they get exposed for $24 billion of homelessness fund that they got,
Starting point is 00:39:21 Newsom that nothing happened to it. The train that they say they're going to build, $18 billion, nothing's been built yet. Not a single rail has been put there. All of these things that are being exposed. Some people may be saying, hey, Nick, maybe California, maybe New York, maybe this. Are there certain places you're targeting next? Yeah, I have a whole list of places I want to go next, especially with the fraud. So me and David will be going to more cities.
Starting point is 00:39:43 I'm going to bring David, because David's the man, dude. Everyone loved him. Tell me why. But he's so, he's one, he's super smart, and he just cares about the country, and he cares about law being upheld. And fraud is fraud. Like, it's so annoying that you have people receiving millions of dollars. Meanwhile, we are all working so hard just to give our, sometimes even half of our check
Starting point is 00:40:06 to the government, right? And so we'll be going to more places. And when you have a place like California where they just lose $24 billion, it needs to be investigated. People deserve to know where they're going, especially when it's affecting your quality of life if you're living in California. Yeah, there's no question about it. By the way, Theo Vaughn yesterday, did you see what he tweeted yesterday? Yeah, he's like, why are we paying taxes? Why are we paying taxes? If you're paying taxes, it's because you want to see good happen with the taxes that you're paying. Yeah. And I think what's so amazing is my journalism, is actually creating change.
Starting point is 00:40:38 What we saw with, what's the department called the, not HSI. HHS? HHS? HHS, yeah, HHS, it's the $100, what is it, $185 million that they're stopping? Yeah, so what's so amazing about what I'm doing right now with my journalism is that it's actually creating change. So people are mad at me for this, though. You're seeing them come at me on CBS, CNN, and every single time they point out something,
Starting point is 00:41:06 they say, conservative YouTuber, MAGA YouTuber, they just can't admit that I'm creating real change inside of the country right now. Never before, one of their investigations ever led to a point where they say, oh, wait, we're going to stop funding and we're going to make sure everything's legit before we start giving them money.
Starting point is 00:41:23 I mean, that video alone, I could have just saved the country hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars. Well, I think you did. I think what you did is a lot of people are now getting exposed, and they're not happy about it. Matter of fact, there was a, when you were in Minnesota,
Starting point is 00:41:39 a guy pulled up to you, right? And he says, I think I know what you're doing, okay? Why don't you just say what you really want to say, right? This is the exchange. Rob, is this yesterday or just a couple days ago? This is yesterday. Yeah, so we have a whole other video coming out about other fraud that's taking place.
Starting point is 00:41:57 You have a whole new video coming out. Whole new video. It's going to be a masterpiece because it is crazy. And each and every single time. More than the first? Oh, yeah. it's going to be crazier because now the people now the Somalis were right up they were after me like they were coming and people were stopping in the middle of intersections hopping out their car and i had to get security for this video coming out just trying to literally attack me i saw one of the videos that somebody tried to attack you and you try to protect your camera guy yeah is that still part one or is that part two there's so much going on i don't know you know which one i'm talking about because i saw one of the clips where you're like no no you didn't let the guy hit your camera guy every time they were swinging at the camera guy you were standing in front of it
Starting point is 00:42:35 Yes, I think that was part one, part one, yeah. Could have been. Yeah, that was part one. This one, people were literally pulling over and getting out, like in the middle of an intersection, at a red light. They're stopping their car and coming out, and they're just coming out and trying to slam me for being a racist, for being Islamophob.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Meanwhile, I'm interviewing another black man in Minnesota, and they're calling me a racist. Show that one video, Rob, the one with the guy saying, why don't you just tell the truth on what you're trying to do? Go ahead, Rob, that one. Why are you sensationalizing the propaganda? What are we sensationalizing? To attack our community.
Starting point is 00:43:12 What's your final objective? We're not attacking. Are you making good money from this? We're looking for fraud. For instance, can you answer our question? Where is Safari Transportation Company 607? It's not there. How much, how much money are you,
Starting point is 00:43:27 how much money are you making? Dreamline security. How much money are you making off of this? I make money off of YouTube. That's how I make my money. Exactly. So you're making money off of sensational. my job and attacking the Somali community I'm not attacking you guys we're asking I'll tell you the reason why this is happening all right let me tell you the reason why
Starting point is 00:43:43 you're attacking is right correct yeah this has nothing to do with race this is this is absolutely has to do with us being Muslim no it does not all right and us being from Africa this is a constitutional argument so you don't want us here change the freedom of religion say listen you don't want Muslims in this country anymore we're not saying no no no no because when I go When I go on to your comments, what I see is people that say we do not want Muslims here, kick every single Muslim in Minnesota out of Minnesota. That's a comment.
Starting point is 00:44:16 You are, listen, you prepare it, you're preparing for the Somali community to maybe be taken to concentration camps. Just for the Japanese community, all right? You're sensationalizing. No, we're not. You know, you are, what you do, you hate Muslims. I'm not saying I hate money. You know, you hate Muslims. are you attacking us? Are we the only community that suffers because of fraud?
Starting point is 00:44:39 We're talking about fraud. Are we the only community that does fraud? Listen, let me say something. We have, what, a thousand providers? Okay, what did he just say? Even it's 2,000. Are we, okay, let it continue because it's important what he's saying here. Sorry. I'm going to sacrifice the safety of 80,000 people because of fucking 2,000 providers. Are you fucking mad? Are you stupid? You're sensationalizing. Dude, I love you.
Starting point is 00:45:05 That's what you can't teach, folks. Oh, my God. It's because of you sensationalizes. You son of a bitch, sensationalize this. Get the fuck out of our neighborhood. Get the fuck out of our neighborhood. Get the fuck out of our neighborhood. Oh, let me tell you.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Get the fuck out of it. Get the fuck out of it. Don't out of you. One situation right, one clicks. You got flicks. So you can pause. So you can pause. right there. Listen, you can't teach courage. You cannot teach courage. You can read all the books
Starting point is 00:45:40 in the world. You cannot teach courage. You either have it. You don't have it. You got it. Major props to you. By the way, here's Newsweek. You ready? This is from AP. When he says, why don't you go target other audiences, other communities? From AP in Newsweek, Rob, if you can pull up this article, you know which one I'm talking about. We read about this yesterday. AP cited the U.S. attorney's office for Minnesota reported that Somali Americans made up 89% of those that had been charged in connection with the case of December 19. Trump has repeatedly criticized the state's large Somali community in recent weeks, meaning all the fraud that's happening, 89% of it was tied to that community. The new allegations follows a series of fraud cases
Starting point is 00:46:27 involving government programs and the state of firestorm over alleged mass fraud began earlier this year and intensified in December after the state acting U.S. attorneys said $9 billion or more in federal funds allocated to 14 state-run programs since 2018 have been stolen again. 89% was tied to Somalis. We don't care what nationality you are. We just want to know who's doing it. If you come to America, you simulate, you make the place a better place, let's turn you
Starting point is 00:46:54 into a flippant hero. But if you come and you steal from taxpayers and you have the data that came up, Rob, is so frustrating that says 10 years after, you know which one I'm talking about the chart I sent it to yesterday, folks who lived in America, Minnesota, for 10 years plus, what percentage of them were still taking welfare or social programs that we have? 78% were 10 years after living in America in Minneapolis. What do you mean 78%? 78%. These are numbers and stats that are out there, Rob, if you don't have it, I'll send it to you so the audience can see this. And by the way, while I'm looking for this, Rob, can you do me a favor while I'm looking
Starting point is 00:47:36 for this, Rob? Can you play the clip of that one guy saying, yes, you white man, yes, you white girl, you go work while I'm paying for this. Yes, you know which one I'm talking about? I sent that to you yesterday. The entitlement's insane from this people. The level of boldness. What is the energy while you're talking to this guy in that video?
Starting point is 00:47:52 What happened afterwards? Did he leave? Did cops come? Did security come? What happened afterwards? A whole mob of Somali's came. Like, they stopped. street and they just started honking. Probably at least 10. Did they at all at any point try to
Starting point is 00:48:05 hit you, swing at you, or no? That guy kept coming after me and security had to keep getting in front of him. Your security or his security? My security. So you have to hire security for the second time run you went to Minnesota. Oh yeah. I had to get, I got, I had to get massive security for this video. I had to, I had four people with me because of how crazy these people got. I mean, literally they pushed me, that guy pushed me off the street. He came after me and you see they try to call you Islamophobic, racist. I'm like, we'll answer the question. Where is Safari transportation? Is it right here? Because the address says it's right here from the state of Minnesota, but it's a wiring company. It's for money. And you want to answer the question.
Starting point is 00:48:42 They can't, they know fraud's happening. Like that guy, dang well knows that fraud's happening inside his place. He said, are we the only community that commits fraud? Are you only coming after us because we commit fraud? And, yeah, it's pretty wild. This is, the clip of a guy, and we verified on X to see if it's real or not. This is a Somali guy. Folks, if you're wondering, like, hey, be fair with this community, be fair with that community and all this other stuff, it's very simple. Find out for yourself on what they're saying.
Starting point is 00:49:12 Watch the energy of this guy. Does this decrease your blood pressure, or does it increase your blood pressure? Go ahead, Rob. You work all the fucking day. You don't got shit. Thank you for working so hard so I can be home all day. free. I can use my EBT. Go to work for me, white boy? White girl? Yeah. Go to work for me, you f***ing white animals. F***ing work for me. And the U.S. government is the, they work for me.
Starting point is 00:49:42 All of you work for me. Now go to work. Ha, ha. By the way, I show this to Jake. I said, this is this 3D? He starts laughing. I said, is this AI? He says, Pat, that doesn't look like. Every second he's watching it, he started going like, maybe it is AI, because this doesn't sound right for somebody to talk like that. Then I had Humberto and Rob look into it. Then we went to Grod because, you know, it verifies the videos. That's an actual video.
Starting point is 00:50:08 There's another video, Rob, of a guy that's at Home Depot. And a Home Depot employee is getting upset at these guys, and he says, do you have our kind of cash here? Let me throw some cash your way. Let me throw some cash your way. Did you see that clip? I texted it to you earlier. You should have it.
Starting point is 00:50:21 I just send it to you again. if you check your text, you'll have it. While you're doing that, Rob, can you pull up that chart? And I'm going to go to Nick on this one. If you can pull up the chart. So this is the chart. This is very important chart, guys. 81%.
Starting point is 00:50:34 81. Can you tell them what this chart is, Nick, please? Yeah, so this chart's showing the population of Somalis inside of Minnesota compared to native households, and you're having 81% of the Somali population is on welfare, and 54% on food stamps, and 73% on Medicaid. So it's not even And I'll tell you why there's so many that And why they're able to do this Is for instance just take the daycares for example
Starting point is 00:50:58 So a Muslim man he's able to have four wives They go and work at these daycares They don't actually get any tax They don't get any How do you say like to get taxed? These people don't actually get taxed Or they don't actually file that they're working So they're just getting paid cash as you saw in the video And so then when they go
Starting point is 00:51:17 So then when they go to the office and whatnot They're able to say well we need money because we don't we're not working and so you have four you can have you could have up to four wives all collecting welfare and for one marriage what a business model yeah and they're all living inside these communities and so their money is just getting funneled around millions of literally billions of dollars is getting funneled around inside of these communities and they're also collecting welfare on top of it so they don't pay for their food they're not paying for their housing because they're all on welfare meanwhile they're getting cash because the money they get from secret
Starting point is 00:51:51 cap from these daycares, for instance, is all tax exempt. And just wait until I tell you guys about how they're moving millions of dollars to the airport and sending it back to Somalia. Airport? Yes. I had a whistleblower come on my new video that we're creating. And inside the Minneapolis airport, for years now, you can even see a Fox News covered in 2017.
Starting point is 00:52:12 They have been funneling millions of dollars in cash through TSA. Through TSA? Through TSA. I saw something about this. I'm trying to see if it's the same thing. Yeah, I believe, it probably is because they've, but they've literally receiving millions of dollars, and they just send it back over to Somalia,
Starting point is 00:52:30 and they just have to get to Dubai. They have to get to, they have to get to Dubai, so then they can then send off that money. Yeah, here's a New York Post story, Rob. Minnesota multimillion-dollar day K-fraud reportedly stretches back to 2014, saw scammers leave U.S. with up to a million dollars a pop in cash. Okay. So this story, tens of millions of dollars in cash transported in luggage, started flying out of Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport around a decade ago with a marked uptick beginning in 2016 with travelers departed with a toll of $84 million and another $100 million the next year, Fox 9 reported in 2018.
Starting point is 00:53:11 The troubling report has taken an explosive new significance since the feds alleged a mind-boggling up to $9 billion of fraud scheme in which supposed businesses such as daycares were taken away. So here's a question. How much of this you think Tim Walt's new is happening? Oh, he's known about it. That's why he's saying fraud's been happening for years. He literally knows that fraud has been happening.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Like he is so stupid. Like, he knows what's happening. If someone's stealing money for me and if I'm giving them money and they're going to do something with it, what am I going to do? I'm going to stop giving them money. He's enabled and continued to let this fraud happen. And so is everybody else inside of that capital building because they're the ones riding the checks. Yeah, Rob, is this the clip? Because this kind of brings me to a complete different thing that I'd like some people to look into.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Rob, is this him talking about that he knows fraud is happening? In 2019, yep. This is a 2019 clip. Okay, go for it. Six years ago. I want to be clear that the legislative audit report gave us a clear path. It told us that we could do better. And just like Menlar's, I now own that.
Starting point is 00:54:18 And I own the fix for that. But I do want to be clear, before we take some other questions on this, that what needs to stop is a demonization of one community involved in this. What needs to stop is an absolutely unproven storyline that continues to resurface on the House floor that this money went to terrorists. and it's targeted at one group of our citizens here of Minnesotans. We'll own that this thing needs to be fixed. We'll own that there were problems in this.
Starting point is 00:54:48 We will own that there are fixes, and we think we propose the right amount, but we're open to that to try and close this. But, again, I am not going to allow folks to use this as a hammer against a group of people. Okay. So he's not going to allow to use this as a hammer. Okay, so then the next question is,
Starting point is 00:55:07 How do you think he benefit from it? Not just election-wise, but you think he benefit from it financially? How do you think you benefit from it? There has to be some sort of incentive where he's benefiting from it, whether it be he's actually receiving money or obviously the votes, but he has to have some sort of incentive to allow this happen. Maybe he's getting somebody else rich, and then he's then getting money to funnel for his next campaign.
Starting point is 00:55:31 Well, and that's kind of how I even had a mayor in California tell me once that. That's why there's so many nonprofits, it's because they create these nonprofits and that money can go back to funneling somebody else's campaign. So Tim Walts, he's probably receiving some sort of benefits. I know he's been to China a lot, Tim Walts. He's actually not even from Minnesota. He was born in Nebraska.
Starting point is 00:55:50 I don't even know if he owns a home in Minnesota. Like, I don't think he actually physically owns a home in Minnesota. He lives in the governor's mansion. But lots of really strange things underneath Tim Walts. And why would it take, if Pat, if you're giving somebody millions of dollars, and you'd notice that millions of dollars are going to place where they shouldn't be, how many years do you think it would take for you to solve that issue? Six months, three to six months.
Starting point is 00:56:16 You'd put the entire team behind it because you want to be able to gain credibility that we're addressing this issue and it cannot continue. So he's had six years. And then in 2023, he says, he's either, 2020, I think he said, we're going to give them a raise. We're going to give the child care a raise in Minnesota. that. Yeah, this is a little weird because the one thing, when Kamala Harris was choosing the VP and, you know, is it going to be Newsom, Newsom rejected it, is it going to be Josh Shapiro, they're not comfortable that he was Jewish and that, you know, he had some stuff
Starting point is 00:56:49 skeletons in a closet from a previous friend that he protected. They claimed that was the reason, right? And Josh is not a fan of Kamala Harris. Nobody in a million years thought it was going to be a guy named Tim Walts. But here's what happened, Rob, if you want to pull this up, When they announced Tim Walts, what's weird is 24 hours after announcing Tim Walts, a record-breaking $36 million went into the campaign. It was a record-breaking thing that happened. Whoa. I don't know if you knew this or not. Harris' campaign raises $36 million in 24 hours after announcing Walls as running mate.
Starting point is 00:57:23 Where that money came from, of course, someone can investigate this. And they said this was a record-breaking number. Who is Tim Walts? It's not like it's a massive name. Where is that money coming from? You know, we don't know who this individual was to be able to get this kind of money, but it gets people to question where this money came from. Yeah, 100%.
Starting point is 00:57:42 That kind of goes back to my point that they'll start these organizations or start these daycares and then they can just get all this money tax-free and then they can funnel it wherever they want. Yeah, so that is the part where how is he winning from doing this? Then there's also some people that were speculating saying, you know, Tim Walt's getting in. This is such a big issue nationwide with Democrats in different places. I even saw one that said Pennsylvania is also another place they're looking into. If this becomes a national thing on the Democratic side for fraud, this is not just bad for Tim Walts. This is bad for everybody. Yesterday, Scott Jennings on CNN. I don't know if you saw this
Starting point is 00:58:23 exchange between Scott Jennings and Dear Abbey. Did you see that exchange? Rob, if you want to play this clip. It was Scott doing his typical thing, which is, you know, destroying everybody on that show and, you know, the CEO of CNN. Rob, if you want to play this clip real quick, watch us, exchange folks. Why is it that right now everything seems to be about whether or not the people involved here are Somali, even though one of the biggest people who were involved in one of these frauds was not Somali at all. She was a white woman. So respond to that. Doesn't that disprove everything he just argued? Well, they're obviously, they're rounding up anybody.
Starting point is 00:59:01 They're rounding up everybody who is involved in fraud. No, they're not rounding up everybody. They're all talking about Somalis. That's the point. I want them to round up anyone who is involved in defrauding American taxpayers of what apparently amounts to $9 billion in a very, very small state. Somali, whether they're citizens, immigrants, why? I don't care.
Starting point is 00:59:25 You don't care if they target one. to stop. But do you support the targeting of this one community or not? I support the targeting. I support the targeting of people engaged in fraud. But do you support the targeting of the Somali American community as directed by the president of? If they are engaged in fraud, that's not what he said. That's it.
Starting point is 00:59:43 That is precisely what he said. If data says it's the case, who cares? Go keep playing it? Should that make them immune? That's a straw man argument? No. Just answer the question. I did.
Starting point is 00:59:54 I want anyone involved in fraud to be targeting. Anyone involved in fraud? But not based on their ethnicity. I want it based on whether they're involved in fraud. Is this really so hard to answer that question, Scott? I want it. Yes. I said, the only criteria.
Starting point is 01:00:06 The only criteria I have is fraud. Can you say we shouldn't target people based on their ethnicity? I can say that. Can you say that? Absolutely. Everyone here can say, can you start people based on their ethnicity is bad. But Scott Jennings won't say that. Why won't you say that?
Starting point is 01:00:22 Because I don't agree that that's what's happening. I don't agree with your fallacy. I don't agree with your stupid use. There's another clip on this one, right? There's another clip where he is just going at it with Abby. It's an exchange between the two of them. But finally, these types of conversation, is this the one? I think, no, that's not.
Starting point is 01:00:41 There's one that he's going with Abby back and forth. And it's a very, very strong exchange that they have it. The point is, at this point, is this the one? This is where they talk about Tim Walts claiming that fraud was a white supremacy. Yeah, this is the one. Go ahead. It's Democrats who have put Somali Diaspora in Minneapolis at the center of their party and their state's politics. It's a small portion of the population.
Starting point is 01:01:07 There is a bunch of fraud that goes on, and even Tim Walls has claimed that any investigation of this fraud is akin to white supremacy. No, he has not claimed. He has not said that. He has not said that. He has not said that. This is what happens when your own federal government wages war against you.
Starting point is 01:01:24 This is what happens when they target, communities for their own benefit. This is what happens when they scapegoat. And this is what happens when they no longer hide the idea of white supremacy. The idea of white supremacy. The idea of white supremacy. See, this is why you can't do things like that
Starting point is 01:01:42 today. There's a 17-year-old kid that's a great editor that knows how to take it, find it. And he has all the time in the world, dear Abby. You can't say stuff like that with CNN anymore. You can't. Someone like a 23-year-old Nick Shirley that's fearless with courage is going to come and say, let me investigate this a little bit more
Starting point is 01:01:58 if this is true or not, if he ever said this or not. Go ahead. Yeah, Tim Watson said it himself. Yeah. He called me and everybody else a white supremacist. Yeah, yeah. For simply just carrying about fraud. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:08 And that's why he's allowed fraud to happen because he's so scared of being called a racist, be called an Islamophobic, and for saying things for what they are. That fraud is fraud. It's a fact that the small population inside Minnesota are committing 89% of the fraud. 89% of the fraud in Minnesota is coming from
Starting point is 01:02:26 Somalis. Yes. I mean, what does that, what does that do to you? I mean, the question then becomes from the White House, yesterday Eric Trump tweeted, I don't know if you saw this tweet, the best part about this tweet is the comments below. And Eric Trump, we're friends with Eric, but Eric tweets something and says, I don't know if you saw this, Rob. He says, man, people better start getting right there. He said, people better start going to jail in Minnesota. And the most comment retweet was, dude, your dad's the president, like, meaning, you know, give him a call and do something. But the reality of it is, if an Eric Trump is saying people better start going to jail, Don Jr. had you on, I think, last night. You were on a show last night with him.
Starting point is 01:03:10 People simply want to see if anyone's going to be held accountable or not going into 2026. Do you think with the work you're doing, you're almost forcing them to have to make a decision of people getting arrested? And if that, have you started seeing people getting arrested? Like when you went to Minnesota, did you see the government there as well? Yeah. Go knocking on doors? Yeah. And that was directly because of my YouTube video and because of the video that went viral on next. So when have you ever seen a piece from a journalist from a YouTuber that's created such a change where literally within hours they launched a full-fledged investigation to go and crack down on the fraud? Is this one of them? Yes. Okay, Rob, can you play this?
Starting point is 01:03:53 What do they find you? What's this one? They're just going door to door, just asking people about fraud. Because I guarantee inside of this business, there's probably a transportation company that's also labeled there. There could be a home health care business there. They could be an adult daycare, and it's a grocery store. So that's how these companies are operating. I went to so many places where they don't even have the real business.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Wow. So this could be three or four businesses. Oh, yeah. what else did you find rob have they made any major arrest have you seen people walking out getting arrested I haven't seen any of that yet I haven't seen any of that yet that's taking place
Starting point is 01:04:35 I haven't seen the full on like the way 1980s when Rudy Giuliani went out there and a bunch of mobsters were getting arrested 240 something of them getting arrested coming out with handcuffs handcuffs we haven't seen that yet I think that's what the American people want to see they want to see some accountability taking place.
Starting point is 01:04:54 By the way, you know that other video that we played where the guy said, Rob, can you go to the video of the guy claiming that Nick Shirley came out of time, that nobody was here, and that's not fair because the time is this, and I'm here, there's kids here every day. I've been here for eight years. There's always kids here. There's a video right there, that guy right there. So watch this.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Watch this video. Go ahead. What would you say to Nick Shirley, the YouTuber, if he was standing in front of you right now? him himself but i do have something i guess the rhetoric it's if you're going to be a journalist just be have a moral compass like do what you do correctly if you catch business that are fraud no one here is with that or like we don't support that as a community i don't support that myself i was born and raised here i'm i'm not for fraud like the notion that hey a certain batch of somebody got caught so all of them support it's like no no one if in any community any mishaps that happened
Starting point is 01:05:51 the rest of the community obviously doesn't want that to happen is a stand on all of our names as you guys can see we don't want that to happen we don't we don't take part in that we don't like that we don't want that in our communities but just to say hey I'm sorry company got caught so they must all do it and I feel like that's what he's doing 89% body I'm not a pet it may not be your typical daycare hours so can you explain why it is the reason the reason for that is we're after school hours so most of our clients not most of our clients is after school hours So school's earliest dismissal would be 2.15 to 2.30 and the latest dismiss would be up to like 4.30th. You said you were there 11 and 5ish. That's what you said. Yeah. I went at 11 in the morning and then I went back the next day at a later time. And what's interesting is when he's out talking and doing this simultaneously at the exact same time, the commissioner of children is saying that that daycare was closed a week ago.
Starting point is 01:06:49 I filmed my video, the first one, on December 16th, when it was still operating. Your first video shot December 16, that one was released December 26. Yes. Okay. So it wasn't filmed over winter break. It was filmed 10 days before Christmas, 9 days before. Yes, and so it was still operating as a business according to the commissioner of children. Got it.
Starting point is 01:07:08 And by the way, isn't this the same location that in the first 42-minute show that you did, a neighbor is like, I've never seen kids here. Yes, a man who's been living there for eight years. Can you find that clip? It's very important because, And you can tell that guy's just being straight up. It's like, no, I've never seen anybody here before. I'll find a time for you, Rob, if you want to look for it.
Starting point is 01:07:26 It's time stamped on my YouTube. Okay. Just go to... On your YouTube. Yeah, go to the YouTube channel, so... It's about at the... What do you guys... That's taking place here in Minnesota.
Starting point is 01:07:39 Go to 1630. Okay. But basically, this guy's been living there for eight years. He's never seen a single child. Press skip, Rob. To the right, okay. If you go... About one more minute up.
Starting point is 01:07:54 Up, fast forward or behind? Forward. Keep going, keep going. This is a lady that thinks your eyes. Yes. And by the way, they also spelled leering wrong and they also spelled Nicolette wrong. Like, these guys bring calm. And by the way, okay, right there.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Pause it for a second, pause for a second. And by the way, they responded to why the leering center. They said the printing company made that mistake. And then Rob asked the question, said, if they made a mistake, why did you put them in the first place? And then they said, they went back and they were going to change. For eight years. For eight years. They made the mistake and it was going to get changed.
Starting point is 01:08:22 But what happened, Rob? There was a... It was too cold outside for them to come and swap the sides. For eight years. Yeah. Okay, so, but watch this. So that same place where the man says, for eight years, kids are here all the time. This is what a neighbor said of what he's seen at this place.
Starting point is 01:08:38 Go ahead, Rob. Have you ever seen children at that daycare center right there? Yeah, it's right there. It says the child, you've never seen daycare. I don't see anybody here. We're going to educate you on something. So what do you think about this? staycare center they spelled learning wrong they've received over 1.9 million dollars this year alone
Starting point is 01:08:54 and they're supposed to have 99 children here i don't see it have you ever seen any children here none not at all none last this year they got 1.9 million last year they got 1.5 million of your tax money for 99 children we just want to know where are the kids right where are the children i don't see them i've been here since 2017 i haven't seen any of like that here you've never seen a child here Nope, not at all. And so you've never seen a child here for eight years? Nope, not at all. And how does that make you feel knowing that this place is receiving $1.9 million?
Starting point is 01:09:24 Disgusting. Did you walk over with you? I mean, what the hell? They steal the money. That's the federal grant, too. Yeah, they get caught. For that, it's a federal offense. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:09:32 I studied law. And do you think Tim Waltz should go to jail for all the fraud that he's enabled here in his state? That's him doing this? Wohpah! Heck yeah! He's got to be held accountable for this. I mean, there's no rhyme of reason what's going on here. It's simple.
Starting point is 01:09:45 It's nothing there. It's a parking lot. And look, they even spell learning wrong on their sign for a place that's supposed to be educating children. That's crazy. I mean, who runs it? Who supposedly runs it?
Starting point is 01:10:00 Somalians. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Who is he, by the way? He was just walking around. He was just walking and go get his coffee. So he's walking on going to get his coffee? He sees you and you pull him aside.
Starting point is 01:10:13 Yeah. That's how all my videos work. So you just got to start talking to the guy. Yeah. So this is a guy that lives in that area, works in that area since 2017, and he's never seen kids in that property. Never. And then by the way, that guy that responded to you and he says, I have nothing against Nick Shirley.
Starting point is 01:10:28 I just say there's got to be some kind of a journalistic integrity. Can you go to the other clip, another independent YouTube, Instagram account? This is the craziest thing. Did you see this one? This is crazy. Okay, so check this out, folks. So apparently the same guy that was in the back calling out Nick Shirley, look what ties, can we give credit to this content creator?
Starting point is 01:10:47 What's, Rob, I can't, 47 years, I can't see anything. So Sabrina Cosmos? Okay, Sabrina Cosmos. She sounds, it's a Greek last name, maybe it's different. But here's Sabrina showing something that I think we should be interested in. Go ahead, Rob. Am I going crazy or is this the same guy? Is the manager of the infamous Learning Center in Minneapolis, also one of the guys that was
Starting point is 01:11:08 dancing in the back of Mayor Jacob Frey's election victory video, the one that went super viral where he thinks his constituents in Somali for reelecting him last. month. Abraham Ali claims to be the manager of the Quality Learing Center and says that there is no fraud going on whatsoever there. He very well may just have a doppelganger who happens to look just like him that lives in the very same city he lives in, or he could be one of the Somali community leaders who is working with local electeds to keep some of these fraud schemes going. But that would just be crazy, right? I could be totally wrong to assume this, but he's got a very unique face and hairline.
Starting point is 01:11:45 so similar to this guy going. Hypothetically speaking, it would make sense that someone running a fraudulent business would have a vested interest in who is in control politically in the city where they are running said fraudulent business. And Jacob Frey is no stranger to simping for Somalia. Hell, he even puts out campaign videos in Somali for... My aga, Jacob Frye. Doke Magalada, Minneapolis.
Starting point is 01:12:12 And the cherry on top is that Governor Tim Waltz, after being ruined, radio silent finally comes out and puts out a statement days later just a few minutes ago. And what does he do? He blames Trump. Trump keeps letting fraudsters out of prison. I'm curious. Do you guys think this is the same guy? So this is the same guy that went up there, like a spokesperson, is the same guy that's
Starting point is 01:12:32 celebrating with the mayor? Has the mayor's office that all reached out to you? No, there actually one guy even said, because I made this t-shirt, he said, oh, this is perfect this is perfect he said this is perfect to be able like basically
Starting point is 01:12:45 sue me perfect perfect evidence that you put that out there though leering center one 800 fraud yeah 1 800 fraud
Starting point is 01:12:52 and they're like this copyright infringement I'm like well first off if I did you guys a favor because it's actually
Starting point is 01:12:58 learning so I have the right to use rearing that is so funny but think about it you literally have somebody
Starting point is 01:13:04 who's parting with the mayor coming out and talking about the fraud and they just magically show up and they start
Starting point is 01:13:11 busing in children. Yeah, they literally start busing in children. And while the commissioner of children saying, we closed that place a week ago, that guy, I don't know who he is. He's probably getting paid to cover face. He's the spokesperson for this mayor right now trying to make him look good. And his time's up. And I even tried to confront him. I went to the daycare. He was there. I said, all right. I was like, you have a perfect opportunity to talk to me right now. Come debunk all the claims. I want to talk to you. I'll give you the mic. He won't, he ran inside the daycare. Stop it. So you have that video?
Starting point is 01:13:42 Yes, I have the video. So this is the yesterday, visit that you went to? The daycare. Yes. I went to the daycare. He was there. I said, oh, awesome. Let me ask you some questions.
Starting point is 01:13:51 You have the perfect opportunity to debunk everything. And he goes inside and I get a middle finger from a lady inside. And he goes and hides behind the door. Wow. So that guy, I don't, I got to say allegedly apparently, but that guy definitely is in on the fraud. He's parting with the mayor. So then that means is the mayor in on the fraud? 100% they all are if you look at all the records of these companies that that daycare centers had multiple violations of the past few years multiple violations i think upwards of 10 violations but yet even if they were closed they still received 1.9 million dollars that is that is just
Starting point is 01:14:28 and why would you ever put a child in there when there's only one door it's completely blacked out there's no windows there's no playground it's just a place for fraud yeah i mean my mind goes to a lot of different places fraud, safety for kids. Rob, what is this one here? This is the woman that you spoke about, the Education Commission? Yes, the Commissioner of Children. Where she talks about the daycare being closed, but they're also showing people
Starting point is 01:14:55 going into the daycare on the same day. Let me see it. Is there fraud going on here? No, it's a video. I just want to know what's your response. Huh? Get the fuck out of here. What's your response to the allegations
Starting point is 01:15:10 Is there fraud going on here and is there children? That's all. We are aware of a video that's being circulated that has gained local and national attention about child care centers in Minnesota. While we have questions about some of the methods that we're used in the video, we do take the concerns that the video raises
Starting point is 01:15:33 about fraud very seriously. Each of the facilities mentioned in the video has been visited at least once in the last six months as part of our typical licensing process once and in fact our staff are out in the community today to visit each of these sites again so that we can look into the concerns that were raised in the video um so i i won't go into any detail about whether or not any of these uh have any open investigations i will share that our team was notified that quality learning center just over a week ago um and i believe the details at the time were around space concerns um and that's
Starting point is 01:16:10 what was shared. The previous one I mentioned that had been closed. You can pause it right there. You give somebody a million nine and you only visit that place once every six months. And you surprise that fraud is happening? Yes. And then now they're like,
Starting point is 01:16:23 oh, we're going to start sending people to go look at them. Well, obviously they're going to start putting children inside the daycares. And the other complaint people had on the internet was, oh, he went during winter break. No, actually went December 16th. Right now they're in winter break and they're putting children inside the daycare.
Starting point is 01:16:37 So what does that say? That's right. So their claims are retarded. That is a very good point, meaning if they're doing it now, they're doing it to hide because the 16th would be the time where people are not on break. You need a daycare to be available. By the way, what is, have you seen Ilhan Omar say anything about this? No, I have not.
Starting point is 01:17:00 She's been silent. Tim was also silent for three days. Until he was forced to say something. And he said this is based on Trump because he's letting prisoners out. So Ilhan Omar recently said something about Look, if they have to kick me out, I'm not afraid I will go back to Somalia. I'm not an eight-year-old where you're going to scare me.
Starting point is 01:17:22 I don't think it's that one. If you type in, that's the one right there. Yeah. Watch this one. 17 seconds. Go ahead, Rob. I mean, I have no worry. I don't know how they take away my citizenship
Starting point is 01:17:31 and, like, deport me. But I don't even know why that's such a scary threat. Like, I'm not the eight-year-old. who escaped war anymore. I'm grown. My kids are grown. Like, I can go live whatever I want. I mean, I haven't. Yeah. So I wonder how this is going to tie her, because her and Tim Walts, Tim Walts needs her. She doesn't need him. I have a feeling that if one of them throws the other one under the bus, the other one's going down with them, period. Yeah, and Tim Waltz, he's going to have to do one or two things because he's running for re-election right now.
Starting point is 01:18:11 Well, in first, Elon Omar, her net worth has skyrocketed from negative to $30 million since. How nobody knows. They're saying it's her husband. They're saying different things, but nobody knows. So if that's true, she's doing some pretty dang good returns on whatever she's receiving $174,000 year. But Tim Walts will have to do one of two things. He will either resign and try to flee and not take accountability, or he'll be stupid enough
Starting point is 01:18:34 to continue his run for reelection and most likely be in prison. If, okay, so run a poll, Rob, which is more likely to happen? Tim Waltz resigns, 10 waltz goes to jail, Tim Walts stays in office, and what another option do you want to put on there? Or nothing happens. Or nothing happens, yeah. And I hope, like, everyone's like, we need it now, but we want them to come in with such solidified evidence
Starting point is 01:19:04 that they can just go and, boom, bring the case against him. Yeah, I hope that's what's happening. I hope the reason why Cash has been quiet after that one tweet that he sent out, and they haven't done a press conference. I hope the reason why it's so quiet, it's because they're about to do something. You know what I'm saying? I hope they're about to write there. Okay, so check this out.
Starting point is 01:19:23 How many votes? Let's see what the... Okay, so 1,600 votes. Let's see 2,000 votes already. Wow, 49% is saying nothing's going to happen. That is unbelievable. 24% think he resigns. 15% he goes to jail, 12% he is re-elected.
Starting point is 01:19:43 But nearly 3,000 votes and half the people think nothing's going to happen to him. Do you agree with these guys? I mean, I sure hope not. Like, we hope that nothing happens. We hope that something happens. Accountability happens. Yes, well, some form of accountability. Because if I stole $100,000 or if I stole $5,000 from the government,
Starting point is 01:20:03 or if you don't pay your taxes, they're going to come after you. They're going to come after you. for $5,000 are going to come after you, let alone billions of dollars, 4,000 votes, and still they're saying 49% nothing happens. That is unbelievable. That people don't think, well, let me see if we run that same exact, if people on X feel the same way. I want to run to a poll, same exact way, Rob,
Starting point is 01:20:25 on my personal one, which is more likely to happen. Can you do me favor, Rob, and have PBD podcast retweet it? Just keep that right there so I can write the same thing. Tim Walts. resigns okay waltz resigns uh so ilhan omar nobody from the camp has reached out to you at all no have you gotten any threats like actual death threats yeah well in person and also can you tell me about that like are they messaging you saying we're going to get you what are they saying to you yeah like they're saying oh like kirked you're going to be kirked you're going to be kirked that's what
Starting point is 01:21:03 they're saying yeah like you're the next you'll be the next kirk and it's just like are you kidding me because it's not even like I hate what's happening right now like I feel bad for my family honestly because it's like yeah like we didn't do anything wrong and you guys are coming after me
Starting point is 01:21:19 like I'm some sort of villain right so I'm like my little sister is getting phone calls I'm like why are you guys doing this your little sister is getting phone calls yeah from like the news I'm like don't talk to my family
Starting point is 01:21:31 I mean some news in India they docks my home They docks my dad. They docks my, they like, it was really weird. I haven't even told my dad about that because I just don't want to even bother him about it. Well, Dad, you know now. But, like, they put it, like, it's just like, are you guys kidding me? Like, why are you guys coming after somebody for going against fraud?
Starting point is 01:21:50 Like, I didn't make this a right or left issue. I just showed you guys that fraud was happening. And now you guys are coming after me. You're saying, you'll all be the next Kirk. You're literally stopping at intersections and coming after me and trying to attack me. Like, why are you so evil? like what's wrong with you like what why are you defending fraud do you like money being stolen no and what are you doing you're a racist no i'm not a racist i'm just telling you what the facts are
Starting point is 01:22:18 that you guys are stealing money from the people that are working hard here inside the united states i was literally talking to a black man and then the Somali man comes out and he's also black so i don't like i can't understand what what they're thinking calling me a racist i'm having a great conversation with a black man and then another black man comes up and he's a Somali descent and you're he comes and attacks me for being a racist. I'm like, no, I'm not a racist. It's so stupid. And that's why the fraud has been able to happen for so long
Starting point is 01:22:44 because people like Tim Walts are afraid to be calling racist, afraid to be called racist. And me and my generation, we're over it. Like, we don't care. Oh, I love that, buddy. Like, we do not care. Call us a racist. I do not care because I am not a racist.
Starting point is 01:22:58 We're just seeing that prices of homes are so expensive. I don't even have a friend that can afford a home. people aren't getting married because of how expensive things are. And we're paying so much money in taxes. Most kids are, I'm lucky because I didn't go to college. But most kids are starting their life off behind the starting line. There are thousands of dollars in the debt. And so, yes, we're upset because you guys are stealing millions of dollars
Starting point is 01:23:25 and getting rich. And then you're bragging about the white man working on TikTok. Who's actually the racist? You're the racist. You're the one saying, the white man. you work white woman you work white man we're sick of it nobody cares like stop committing fraud if you're going to be here be happy to be here and work hard like we're working hard whether you're black mexican asian white just go and work and don't start playing this victim card and start trying
Starting point is 01:23:53 to play political make things political about money for instance or don't get mad at people for making money like that's why america is the greatest country in the world is because of capitalism them, and we had 250 years to do it. All these other countries had thousands of years to do it, but they didn't do it. That's why we have to protect what's ours. No question. By the way, what was your relationship like with Charlie?
Starting point is 01:24:17 He texted me the day before he got shot. Stop it. Yeah, like he invited me on his show. I was actually the last guest to ever go on Charlie Kirk's show before he got shot. Are you kidding me? Yeah. You were the last guest to go on Charlie's show before he got shot and killed? Yeah, it was like an hour before he got shot.
Starting point is 01:24:34 I didn't, Rob, did you know this? No idea. I did not know this. And so I wasn't like personal friends with Charlie, but like that's why it hit me so hard. Him dying, one, he texted me the night before, and then I was literally the last guest to go on a show. Wow. Wow. And what was the conversation about the last thing you were on with Charlie?
Starting point is 01:24:57 Well, he just invited me on a show and then, because he was going to do the debate, it was his co-host, Andrew, was hosting the show. Yeah. That's right. And I'm from Utah, too. And what's strange about me, as I was supposed to be at that event, and I was going to go do a live stream. And I was even going to reach out at Turning Point to, like, be a private because I'm well-known in Utah. And for some reason, I decided to go back to New York.
Starting point is 01:25:21 Or else I would have been, who knows how close I would have been up on that stage or if I was just in the crowd. But I would have been live-streaming it. You would have been live-streaming it if you were there. Wow Who was Charlie to you? Yeah I think he's just somebody
Starting point is 01:25:41 that similar to somebody like you You know they have your back Because you're also doing the same thing So you have that mutual respect for him And yeah you might not agree with everything Charlie said But if you think about what he did As far as the movement he created with Turning Point
Starting point is 01:25:56 I don't know if you were at Amfest last week But it's amazing Not last week, last year. It's amazing to see that. Even one person can gather 30,000 people for a convention in one weekend, right? And I think he's just more so just like somebody who's in the fight with you, speaking truth for what they believe and not standing down to anybody. Do you have any interest in investigating and finding out what happened there and who shot him?
Starting point is 01:26:23 Do you have an opinion on that? I think it was that. I think it was Tyler Robinson. You think it was Tyler Robinson? For sure. I think so. Because I'm from Utah, the most violent protesters I've ever been around that I've been attacked by are people in Utah. Seriously?
Starting point is 01:26:36 Yeah. Why is that? Well, in Utah, we're primarily, most of us are members of the church of Jesus Christ. We're Mormons. We primarily support Trump. And we're, we don't fall into the agenda of the LGBT plus because of our religion. You can do whatever you want, but for instance, in our religion, yeah, for instance, in our religion, yeah, for instance, in our religion, we're, we don't, we don't. we believe that marriage is between a man and woman.
Starting point is 01:27:03 And so if you're anything that's not, if you're not a Christian, for instance, and you are in this mob mentality of Antifa of these left-wing ideas where they think literally Trump's the devil or Charlie Kirk's a fascist. And so if you're inside of Utah and you're somebody who does not believe in that
Starting point is 01:27:25 and you're not happy, you're in the worst place you could possibly be for yourself. And that's why the liberals are so crazy in Utah. And that's why there's been two killing political attacks in Utah this year. At no king's protest, somebody got shot and killed. I was supposed to be at that as well.
Starting point is 01:27:44 And they killed Charlie Kirk in Utah. Have you investigated to see who knows Robinson? Have you talked to anybody that knows him personally? Yes, because not that knows him personally. But I do have, like, friends that live in St. George, and, like, his family was in his ward, in his church. And so I think he was just some person who he left the church, and he became, like, when somebody leaves the church for some reason, it becomes their whole personality, typically. And they just become very anti-Mormon. And they just, like, their whole mission is just, like, their personality becomes, like, I'm an anti-Mormon, like, what are you doing, being a member of the church?
Starting point is 01:28:24 And so that's why he was so radicalized in a way where he got to the point where he literally, thought he needed to kill Charlie Kurt. Wow. So he was previously in LDS? Yeah, I believe so. Okay. And his parents are still? I can't confirm, but I imagine so. Wow. They've left the state. They've left the state. Yeah, they're nowhere to be seen. Even the boyfriend, the transgender boyfriend, his family's left the state, I've heard too. The furry guy? Yeah. Wow. I hope where they went there's some fur because it's important to them. Yeah. So like, it's literally the worst spot for someone. to be if you're not a god-loving man who loves your family and we're also in in utah most of us are all successful too like there's not that much poverty in utah morpans are workers just the one thing
Starting point is 01:29:11 mormons are workers and this guy i mean obviously you know the world especially us we want to know more of what happened with them i want to get to the bottom of it and i hope they they eventually do because it's causing a lot of uncertainty with certain people but going back to this rob you had one clip that you were going to play. Go back to that one clip right there. So this clip here is the freezing of the Minnesota. Can you tell us what this clip is, Rob? Yes, this is Minnesota State Representative Kristen Robbins. She talks about Tim Walts and his team actually being proactive in threatening to expose people as racist and Islamophobic if they expose any type of Somalian fraud in Minnesota. And who is she? She is a state representative for the
Starting point is 01:29:52 state of Minnesota. And she's over the fraud committee. And so she's actually in my YouTube video talking about the fraud? She's in the part two YouTube video? Her graphs that I showed in my first video are from her. So she connected all the dogs. Yeah, she's the Minnesota Fraud Prevention Committee, Chair. Okay, got it. Go forward. Absolutely. We have dozens of credible whistleblower
Starting point is 01:30:11 reports saying that exact same thing. That people were told not to say anything because they'd be called racist or Islamophobic or it would hurt the state. And so people tried to come forward, but were shut down. And that protection of a particular community,
Starting point is 01:30:26 is what really allowed this fraud to flourish in Minnesota for years. But we have said very publicly that, yes, the bulk of the fraud we've discovered so far is in the Somali community, but some of our best whistleblowers are also in the Somali community. And it's really important that we get to the truth of this issue. And so by failing to call it out, we allowed it to continue. And that has hurt Minnesotans tremendously, taxpayers and our vulnerable citizens. have you spoken to her at all yeah you have i spoke with her uh at the fraud committee meeting this recent time you did when you went back or the first time the first time oh the video at the end
Starting point is 01:31:06 were you and the young african-american manacle so she came she she gave a speech that lady at the fraud committee and then that lady who i confronted she was like this is how are we going to build trust within our communities if we're talking about this and i said so i was like all right we're going to front that lady yeah that was that was very interesting at the end so there's christian robins right there in that red right there okay so that's her yeah so this is in where at the end of this rob you want to play this go back five so play it from right here rob look and representative showed charts showing exactly how this fraud has been committed and who is profiting and connecting all the dots and while the democrat representative has looked into the abyss one of them spoke about how none of
Starting point is 01:31:42 this is building trust and how this is a nonpartisan issue so i went confronted her after that he has some very valid questions to ask about what's going on here in minnesota and do you think this This fraud crosses, my name is Nick Shirley. Do you think this fraud is Republican or Democrat or just facts that fraud is happening? I think the fact that's what I heard you talking about. I know what I said is that what we're talking about is. We want to build trust but fraud is fraud. So why should we be enabling fraud to happen here?
Starting point is 01:32:12 No, I don't think anybody is enabling fraud to happen. No, we're going to hold Governor Walls accountable for this. Okay, sir. No, no, no, this is not. When are you going to hold Governor Walls like? No, no, no. She is a representative for this. state of Minnesota yes or no excuse me yes are you if you're gonna talk to me like
Starting point is 01:32:26 are you a state or I'm a disability advocate I heard you and I get over stimulated to testify ma'am the facts are the fact that fraud is happening here and it's not a nonpartisan issue how can you think fraud has been able to happen so much underneath I think if you're listening to our test our hearings we've had now 10 hearings on this and so there's really good data from the people who both work within the administration as well as who both Democrat and Republicans I think what you heard today is that the Republicans who control this committee are not actually interested in solving fraud what they're interested in is telling a
Starting point is 01:33:05 story this fraud has happened underneath Democrat leader Tim Walts there has been Medicaid fraud across the country under Democrats and Republicans there's fraud within the Trump administration there we have as fraud public private providers have made government a mark and so every Every person running government, Democrats or Republicans, are dealing with the issue of how to keep fraudsters out of our public payment. We're also dealing with veterans. We're dealing with consumers.
Starting point is 01:33:32 I hope you're looking at that. If you look at United Health currently is being charged with defrauding Medicare. You know who runs Medicare? President Trump, Medicaid fraud is a 50-state issue. And so, again, it is not a partisan issue. There are Democrats and Republicans who are sitting in that committee talking about it. But what you did here was the Republican. and chair say she's not turning information over to the one person in government who can stop
Starting point is 01:33:57 payment. And I hope you print that. Thank you for coming. You're right. Okay. Well, you shall be you pause right there. I mean, you see, you see that, how do you process that afterwards when you hear her saying that? I'm like, are you kidding me? Like, you're, now you just try to blame it on Trump? Like, can you not admit fraud? She literally admitted fraud was taking place right there they all know fraud is happening in minnesota so why didn't they stop it yeah i don't know by the way this is the the poll on where are we out on the poll with the podcast oh wow at 12 000 it's still at 49 percent well let me go to x look what x is x is even higher the people are on x are even more skeptical than than youtube 63.7 percent think nothing's going to happen 16 percent think he's
Starting point is 01:34:46 going to get reelected only seven and a half percent think he's going to go jail on you YouTube, 15% thing he's going to go to jail. On X, 12.8% think he's going to resign. On YouTube, 23% thing he's going to resign. I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen here. But the reality of it is, he's exposed. What the U.S. government, have you spoken to anybody
Starting point is 01:35:07 and asked them the question of what the U.S. government has the power to do to Waltz and how that speed is going to be? Is it a slow process? Have you asked anybody these questions or what can happen to Waltz? Not specifically about Walsh, but I've asked him, like, how come, like, in the federal government, when we talk about, like, what's happening inside our states, why can't we just go in and solve the Fetano issue, for instance? And pretty much this, like, we're seeing how much power states actually have inside the government
Starting point is 01:35:33 when Trump wants to go and clean up a state for crime, and governors block it. So you're seeing, like, how judges can quite literally block and postpone stuff so long to the point where a lot of stuff just doesn't even happen. Or sometimes people probably get discouraged to the point it's, like, why, you know, even try. And so, like I said before, I think they're just going to have to come up with a case that's so solidified that when the evidence is provided, that there's no debate for it. But what's worrisome is in Minnesota, they found a man guilty of $7 million in fraud. He was found guilty by, he was found guilty. The judge then reversed it after he had been found
Starting point is 01:36:14 guilty. So, like, they're all in on this fraud. Like, when have you ever seen somebody get committed? for $7 million of fraud and then walk free after he was committed. This is the one right here. Minnesota Judd's Slamford returning conviction of a pair involved in Medicaid fraud? Yes. And this is yesterday. This is two days ago. Go a little bit lower, Rob.
Starting point is 01:36:33 $7 million. How much is you just? $7 million. Yeah, right there. A judge of Minnesota is currently facing back on returning a conviction of over $7 million of a couple who were found guilty of misusing medical Medicaid funds to fund a rich lifestyle. Oh, Rob, is this the one with the cars and the houses and the travel and the the luxury homes or is that a different story that's a separate story but same fraud same type of
Starting point is 01:36:53 fraud just different people different perpetrators that we're doing it so this is not the same people no and where are they from that did this uh abdifa josef sounds like an american name so if you want to see where our frontier is from abdifa go to the judges like why would she overturn that former al-Shabaab recruit turned witness to face deportation go back to that one right there that's you found something interesting click on that what date is that oh that's 10 years ago former twin city man who joined terror group in Somalia later became a star witness for the United States government will be released from prison on Thursday I would not be surprised if that's the same man if this is the same man
Starting point is 01:37:42 like but he isn't a free man to the Abdifa Yosef Asi is the first person to finish time for a terror-related charge as part of his expansive federal investigation to al-Shabaab, recruitment, Twin Cities, because he is not a U.S. citizen, has been convicted of felony, federal immigration enforcement officials took him to custody Thursday and to removal proceedings, said Ben, I was going to talk, said an immigration judge will hear. Rob, do you have the other story of the folks who used the money to, let's see if I got it here. There you go. So Minnesota scammers spent kids food aid on luxury cars.
Starting point is 01:38:19 cars, jewelry. This is December 12 News Nation story. If you have it, there you go. That's one right there. This is feeding our future. Yeah. This is feeding our future. Yeah. Text messages recovered by investigators depict individuals flaunting their wealth, including one photo showcasing a box containing $250,000 in cash. They used this money that was supposed to be used for feeding children to buy houses in Minnesota, resort property and real estate in Kenya and Turkey luxury cars, commercial property, jewelry and much more former U.S. attorney, Andrew Lugger, said when announcing the indictments in September 2022. I mean, this is just insane at this point.
Starting point is 01:38:59 And the investigators also uncovered evidence of international money transfers with millions wired to accounts in China and Kenya. One text message instructed, please send $1,000 to Mogadishu, Bakara, referring to a market in Somalia previously controlled by al-Shabaab. And Al-Qaeda affiliate, the location was also the site of the 1990. Blackhawk down incident in which 18 U.S. service members were killed. Are you kidding me? Like we're funneling money and sending money to people who literally hate us.
Starting point is 01:39:30 I don't know, man. I mean, I, what is the latest, latest, Rob? What is the latest latest? Like, has anything even happened today? You know how the president has a reputation on Christmas Day to attack Nigerian ISIS? Trump hasn't said anything so far. He hasn't said anything? Not referring to my video, no.
Starting point is 01:39:53 Zilch? Yeah, Zilch. Why do you think? I think he's either coming up with something where it's so solidified, where something major happens. And, I mean, Pam Bondi came out with what she said where over 90 people have been so far prosecuted, or they've gotten 90 people,
Starting point is 01:40:12 and 60 of them had admitted to fraud. 60 of them had admitted to fraud Yes And found guilty I don't know if that was of this week Or if those were prior people But I mean
Starting point is 01:40:25 I literally just threw the administration A layup to go in and really Get people back on their side Have you tweeted at them Have you sent a tweet At Cash Patel And the president And Pam Bondi
Starting point is 01:40:40 And just saying something like Mayor Suarez said Remember when Elon Musk said about what was going on in California when Newsom and some of the guys didn't want Tesla to be open during COVID? And then Suarez tweeted out, how can I help? Maybe if you tweet out, how can I help? Trump, Cash, Bondi. Should we do it right now?
Starting point is 01:41:05 Do it right now. I would be because I'm willing to bet, folks, if you're watching this, can you do me a favor? He's going to retweet this. I'm going to retweet it. Can you go on X and just retweet this? It's a very basic question. All right.
Starting point is 01:41:19 What do we want to see? I think you just pose a question. It's an open-ended question. Dear Mr. President, Cash Patel, and Pam Bondi. How can I help? Question mark. That's it. Respectfully.
Starting point is 01:41:32 Dear Mr. President, Cash Patel, Pam Bondi, how can I help? I would be curious if anybody reaches out to you. Because if you're doing part two, you were just. just there yesterday. Because I saw the first one, there wasn't much snow. The second one, there was more snow when you went there. It seemed like it was colder. And now you're having a hard time even going into streets without security because people can come in after you. Well, now people are going to think I'm a Fed after I tweet this. So we'll see what happens. All right. Dear Mr. President, Real Donald Trump and A.G. Pambon, the FBI director, Cash Patel. How can I help?
Starting point is 01:42:05 How can I help? Very open-ended. Very open-ended. I'm just curious. Because what makes your, Yeah, there it is. What makes your approach different is you're a good guy who's curious, who wants America to be better. Let me go to this so I can retweet it. Everybody watching you all better go retweet that. I want people to think I'm a Fed. Well, the good news is now you're being, there's documentation. Oh, okay, it's already got a bunch of retweets.
Starting point is 01:42:39 Okay, good. And I just retweet it as well. Perfect. Let's see if they respond. I think they will. I think they will. I think the way the president works. Sometimes he gets ahead of it.
Starting point is 01:42:50 Sometimes he has his team. He can't be everywhere at the same time. But I have a feeling. He's been dealing with Ukraine this week. Say that again? He's been dealing with Ukraine. He's been dealing with a lot of stuff. But to me, on Christmas Day, he did what?
Starting point is 01:43:04 On Christmas Day, he went after Nigeria, right? And everyone was like, wait a minute, Christmas Day, Nigeria. I think this is something where everybody, I mean, how many tweets has Elon, can you go on Elon Musk's tweet? How many of Musk's tweet are just about this topic? How many of Musk tweet in the last, since December 26 that you posted this? How many times has he retweeted a video of somebody that retweeted about you or this topic? A lot. Okay, so let's just count this.
Starting point is 01:43:34 Okay. Number one, that's about you. Keep going. Okay. Number two is an election last year. Okay, keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. What is this one here? Tesla. Okay, keep going. Keep going. I've probably seen 40 tweets. What is that about? What is that one about? Illegal immigrants? Virginia. Okay. This next one is about me.
Starting point is 01:44:03 Okay, this is you? Not being called the racist, about fraud. Okay, so that's two. Keep going. So this is 22 hours. Keep going. Scott Jennings about you. Okay, because that's the investigation. Keep going. And this is Elon Musk. Okay, that's you. That's you.
Starting point is 01:44:19 So keep going. So that's J.D. Vance and Elon. Five. That's also you. Keep going. That's five tweets already. Keep going. What is that?
Starting point is 01:44:26 Illegal aliens? Fraud. Fraud. So that's six. Keep going. You know what I mean? No, that's not. That's Tesla.

Starting point is 01:45:23 Keep going. And this is Elon. This is not just anybody. That's 13. Keep going. That's fraud. That's fraud. That's fraud.

Starting point is 01:46:07 There I am. 23.

Starting point is 01:47:10 39. Oh, my goodness. Are you kidding me? I didn't think it was this many in the last 24 hours. That's 40 and 24 hours. That's 41, the next one, 42, 42, 43, 44, 44, 44, 45, 45, guys, this 40, that's for sure, 46, 47, 27, 27, 23 hours. That's Minnesota, 48.
Starting point is 01:47:44 That's 49. 49. I think we're at 24 hours now because it's December 30. 49. So you got 48 or 49 tweets of Elon. Can you go all the way to the top, how many followers Elon Musk has? Just go to his account. The man who bought Twitter, October of 2022, with 231 million followers,
Starting point is 01:48:03 as busy as he is running all these multibillionaut companies, who was officially networked to around $750 billion, decided to tweet 48 times on the topic of fraud in Minnesota and Somalians, something you started heavily that went viral on December 26th. Meaning, if a guy with his calibre is that interested, I have a feeling you ought to get a call from some folks at the White House saying, hey, how can you help? And a bunch of people are commenting below it.
Starting point is 01:48:36 I think there needs to be more attention to this. I think people need to, people want to know what's going on. I think people want to know, will there be accountability? I think people want to know, you know, what are the ways? Now, what if, for you now, as an audience, the benefit that you have is an independent journal. So by the way, if you guys are watching this, again, if you know anybody or any questions or anything and you want to support them, meneck them.
Starting point is 01:48:57 Send them a manak right now. Any context information, anything you may have, you can meneck, we'll put this handle below as well, the QR code. But the question is going to be, what are the places? So one is you, what you're going to be doing next. Okay, so whether you go to California, what do you go to Ohio, what do you go to Pennsylvania, whether you go to New York. New York would be a very interesting one if you go there.
Starting point is 01:49:17 And I know it's probably not the safest place for you. Mendami also ran on opening up more child care. He did? That's why I'm saying New York would be an interesting one. If you went over there under Mamdani and you did that, I'm sure that would be a lot of noise for him that he doesn't want to deal with. But California probably would love for you to go there. We obviously know the lady in Ohio.
Starting point is 01:49:35 but this could be a very important role and a bigger picture for me is how many other thousands of people that of course are maybe not going to do it at the levels you're doing it but they're going to be going knocking on doors right now and they're going to be saying you've got to be kidding me another person coming and asking these annoying questions well people are learning in locations like Washington State
Starting point is 01:49:58 homes inside neighborhoods are adult daycares oh do you have that clip that's Kent Washington right This one. Yeah, I can't hear me. Watch this. Shout out, Cam. Salawi, Safia, Child Care Center in Kent, Washington. It's a child care center.
Starting point is 01:50:12 They have received $863,000 since 2023. I don't see any signs right off the bat that it's a child care facility. There's no car seats. There's no children's toys, nothing like that. So we're going to go in and we're going to check it out. Hi. Is this, is this Hola? Child Care? No? No? There's no child care here? Okay. God, thank you so much.
Starting point is 01:50:39 Always the woman. There's no child care. All right, guys. We were just at Halauli, what's allegedly Halauli Child Care Center in Kent, Washington, which is right behind me right here. I went up to the door. The exact address listed on the state website, receiving over $800,000 in 2023. They claimed there's no child care here. A couple hundred thousand dollars for the cars. I went and tried to ask the neighbors if there was daycare there and nobody answered. But I could see the people who lived in that house peeling the curtains back. Because just like all the other places, all the curtains were drawn, you couldn't see in or anything. They're peeling the curtains back and watching me as I walk around to the neighbor's houses. And they're scrambling and yelling and I can hear them. What's up with that?
Starting point is 01:51:22 Pretty weird. So I'm out of the field now. I'm back at the house. And I'm looking at this Halauli Safia children's daycare on their government web page. And their licensed capacity is nine, just like the other place, and their total available slots, meaning the total amount of children they can take on is six, meaning this daycare is only serving three children. I mean, I think it's likely they're not serving any children, considering they told me they're
Starting point is 01:51:50 not a daycare. But at most, there could be three children being served by this place, and they're raking in $800,000 since 2023. Can you imagine being it's unbelievable? I've now pulled up one of their inspection reports. Who wouldn't go into this business? is again, short-term, long-term, serious and immediate risks. The government defines serious and immediate risks as risks that pose serious risk of injury, illness, or even death for children
Starting point is 01:52:20 that attend these daycares. And this is the most recent inspection report with no indication that it's been corrected or fixed, and they're still raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars. I don't even understand how this is possible. A normal inspection report, for one of these daycares is like two pages long. You can stop it right. So this is now going to be a new business model of people going. So which means imagine how many people that are not in Minnesota who are conducting the same exact scam in different markets have seen this
Starting point is 01:52:54 and are now saying, hey man, we better get legit quick. Because someone's going to come and knock on our doors. Exactly. Exactly. Like people, they should be worried because there are so. many of these all across the country, even in, even in May, from Maine to Washington State, all the way across the country, there are thousands of these daycare centers. And me and you, we are, we operate a business, right? Mine's my YouTube channel. Yours is this podcast and
Starting point is 01:53:20 everything else you create. Who opens up a business thinking that we're going to, we have to provide, we have to provide some sort of value to make a profit. These people are not providing any value. They're just receiving money, right? It makes absolutely, Absolutely no sense. Yeah, I mean, listen, it really does make no sense. Like, why are we giving money to these people? Like, it's so funny, I saw this on X yesterday. Someone said, okay, so say these daycares are still operating.
Starting point is 01:53:48 Does anybody else have a problem that daycares are receiving $1.8 million dollars while middle-income families are paying thousands of dollars for child care for their children for daycare? Like, they need to stop all this daycare stuff. It's just millions of dollars. Oh, the rage. I have a few. I know people in Washington State who pay $70,000 a year for their child to go to a daycare. For daycare?
Starting point is 01:54:10 For daycare. Yeah, I mean, look, at the end of the day, I believe one of the reasons why this went as viral as it did is because the average family is sitting there saying, what are you talking about? What are you talking about? You know, I'm busting my tail. I'm following the law. I'm doing everything I can. And another country is going to come here, take advantage of our system, steal from. us and they get away with it and a governor from Minnesota protects these people.
Starting point is 01:54:39 How is that even possible? And then call us racist for calling it out. Yeah. And then calls racist for calling it out. Well, look, when is your next clip going to come out? Yeah, so I got to get home to be able to make it. Okay, you got to go home and edit it. Yeah, but it will be so, people will be so shocked by what we discovered because it's not,
Starting point is 01:54:56 because with all these daycares, health care and child care, there's a whole aspect that keeps the whole entire thing running. And that's what we're going to be exposing this next one. I love it. I love it. Because they've taken, they know where they can get the money from because they're using welfare money.
Starting point is 01:55:13 So they have all these systems, but they need something specifically to be able to keep the spin rolling. And so that's what we're talking about. So how can people help? If people are watching right now, they're like, Nick, we love your work.
Starting point is 01:55:23 How can we help? How can they help? Yeah, so I think the most important thing, obviously is to watch, subscribe and share, follow wherever you see it. If you would like to support monetarily or financially, you can donate. I have tips on my ex. Or you could just go and cop and get yourself a quality leering hoodie.
Starting point is 01:55:41 But yeah, for me the most important thing is for people to be watching and sharing. And like I said, at the beginning of this podcast, this video that I created is the most viewed video by anybody by the name who's not Mr. Beast that's ever been on the internet in a long form content. There's been clips that have gotten 100 million views here and there. There's never been a 42-minute expose of widespread fraud here in the United States that's received over 100 million views. And I hope you continue at the highest level. I applaud your courage. You came here with your brother.
Starting point is 01:56:18 It's good to have him here as well. It shows how you were raised with family, with the values, how it's important to you. And I said earlier, you can't teach courage. You got a lot of courage. We support you. We're excited for you, and I know for a fact, whether you hear from the White House or cash or anybody or not, I highly doubt you're going to stop. I think you're going to continue doing this. Eventually, you're going to have to force people to come out and say, we have to do something about this.
Starting point is 01:56:45 And I think justice is around the corner because of the work that you're doing. Yeah, I think so too. I think we're actually seeing journalism create change. We haven't seen journalism create change in who knows how long. When has CNN or CBS actually done something that's actually created change? They play safe. And then when somebody does, they come, you're seeing all these attacks come against me. These people are, like, I saw something, someone's calling me like a PDF.
Starting point is 01:57:10 They're seeing all these crazy allegations. I'm like, what sucks for them is they're never going to be able to get me. I don't drink alcohol. I don't do drugs. I'm a virgin. I don't have sex with random girls. You're not going to catch me on no sexual allegation charges. I don't have any addictions.
Starting point is 01:57:24 I don't have any vices. So what are these people going to get me for? They're done. I'm a religious I believe in God I'm everything they hate I love that So what are they going to get me for
Starting point is 01:57:35 They can't get me for anything Like they're going to come after me for my personality Or for a stunt I did in high school maybe That's maybe the best thing they could get me for Is for Nick Shirley being a young reckless teenager Just like any other YouTube prankster Go ahead, I don't care Like I have nothing to hide
Starting point is 01:57:51 Like I literally have nothing to hide So like I am going to become their worst enemy You're going to start seeing them using the slandering tactic tactics and it's just going to be comical for me because they have they can't get anything on me but and by the way I've lived my life the way I've lived my life and the way I do live my life is a matter-of-fact way I have my morals I have my principles I surround myself with primarily just my family I was true I got everyone churned their back on me in high school for doing YouTube I got kicked
Starting point is 01:58:21 out my friend groups because of why what did he say um the parents saw I was like a liability for doing YouTube for doing YouTube because because I was show like I was just showing stuff that me and my friends were due, whether it was like with fireworks or throwing water balloons at cars. Like we were funny in high school. Like I was just a high school you person. I was just like a high school jock. I was the star athlete of the team, state and track, everything like that,
Starting point is 01:58:47 football team, best player on the football team, all that. But then I also had this YouTube. And I got kicked out of all my friend groups in high school. I got blacklisted for my friends, friend groups. I didn't get invited on a single. a single senior trip, I didn't get invited on any spring breaks because I couldn't go because their parents wouldn't let me. So I got blacklisted. Like I got blacklisted for doing what I'm doing today. How many those guys have reached out to you? Oh, they reach all the time. And I'm like,
Starting point is 01:59:14 our relationships will never ever be the same because how bad they treated me, they never stood up for me or anything. And so that's why it's always me and I choose to go with my family, usually. That's why my brothers and my best friends because of what they've done and how they've never turned their back on me. Wow. Yeah. What a story, bro. Good for you.
Starting point is 01:59:33 Like YouTube has been like everything I've had because I've had people turn their back on me. I've had friends literally walk outside to go to lunch in high school and the friend group that you were in yesterday drives away. Like crazy just for pursuing YouTube. When's your birthday? For what I'm doing, April 4th. April 4th, yeah. Good for you.
Starting point is 01:59:51 So it's crazy and so I'm super happy and it's been amazing to see how God's been able to use me from what I was able to learn from high school from doing YouTube, from just doing my mission as well, just learning about humankind in a different place, learning different languages, and to have that backing of years and years of trying to do YouTube and having little success, but still having success, but using those five years of learning to propel me to where I'm at in these two years. So anybody watching, like, the most important thing is to start young, too, if you're in high school, and use your tactics and if you believe in your instincts go for it because i remember listening
Starting point is 02:00:32 to a quote um from conier west but pretty much is the said listen to your instincts because that's what god's telling you to do so like me it was never an option not to do youtube and to create videos had no idea i was going to create this big of effect but god did right so follow your instincts because your instinct in your guts is god telling you what to do especially if it's good yeah i mean Listen, again, that's a story of your background, the values, the principles, the alcohol, the drugs, all that stuff you were talking about, man, that is, they're going to come after you even more because of that. They're going to try to dig to find stuff and, you know, you're going to be fine. You're going to be fine and you keep doing what you're doing. That courage is what inspires others to say, I can as well.
Starting point is 02:01:20 There are millions of boys around the country that in this era, they're kind of like, well, he's kind of weird. He's a little bit different. Be careful with him. I was a kid growing up, and a lot of the parents are like, well, be careful with them. His parents got a divorce. He's this. He's this.
Starting point is 02:01:34 We don't know what he's going to end up in. Why is he doing this? And obviously later on I went to the military. So I understand what you're saying with the experiences. But my gosh, at 23 years old, I wasn't doing what you're doing at 23. You're just getting warmed up. So, folks, if you're watching this, if you want to. him to do more stuff like this, we have to support him. And that support comes in different ways
Starting point is 02:01:57 like he said earlier. Subscribe, retweet, like, follow, buy the merch, you know, give to the account that he has where he can go give to him or if you have anything else that you're messaging him on, send him a message also on Maneck, whether it's to thank him or anything else that you know that you want to share with them. Having said that, Nick, your class act. Thank you. Appreciate you for coming down. Got a lot of respect for you. Work ethic and your courage. Yes.
Starting point is 02:02:25 God bless everybody. Happy New Year. Be safe tonight. Happy New Year. And don't run an illegal fraud daycare because he may come knocking on the door tonight. Just don't do it, folks. He will be coming. God bless everybody.
Starting point is 02:02:38 Happy New Year. Take care. Bye bye, bye, bye.
