It's interesting that any investigation into voter fraud was put on hold for 4 years until Trump got back in office. It's not bad enough that the census system allows non-citizens to count toward electoral votes and House seats, but clearly the left wants them voting in the system. Plus we're feeding and housing illegals. All the benefits of being a citizen with none of the responsibility.

The fraud investigators in that state must be beyond incompetent considering a 20 something with an iPhone and Youtube channel blew it wide open.

He "blew wide open" a case that had been in the news 5-6 years prior?
Damn, you right-wingers are easily fooled by a 20-something with an iPhone, huh?

I can only imagine how excited you'd get if Nick did a video about a hotel name Watergate. No wonder Trump gets away with so much billshi*, without his sycophants questioning a thing.

"In December 2025, a viral video by YouTuber Nick Shirley, which includes limited evidence for the allegations, ignited new allegations of social services frauds at Somali-American daycare centers and health care companies"
"The video was recorded by Shirley alongside David Hoch, a registered lobbyist for the Minnesotans for Responsible Government group and former Resource Party politician.[88][89][90] Minnesota House speaker Lisa Demuth said the Republican caucus had been "working with Nick Shirley and agency whistleblowers" to hold Governor Walz "accountable". State representative Harry Niska said the party had given Hoch information.[91][72] Hoch told CNN he obtained the information from publicly available websites, not from Republican politicians.[8]

Vice President JD Vance shared Shirley's video, writing that he had "done far more useful journalism than any of the winners of the 2024 Pulitzer Prizes"

I guess Vance is as easily impressed as the idiot right-wingers who feel Shirley "blew the case wide open".

You think reporting on news that was in the media 6 years ago is doing a great job?
How sad to be so easily impressed.
I'll bet you think a microwaved Big Mac is as good as a steak from Ruth's Chris.
