GOP House Majority Whip Tom Emmer has called for the denaturalization and deportation of Somalis linked to the rapidly unfurling billion-dollar fraud scandal in Minnesota. Both the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security say they are surging resources to investigate allegations of widespread fraud which have drawn national attention to the North Star State, home to the largest Somali population in the US. Of the 98 individuals charged so far in connection with the scheme, which has seen the brazen raiding of food, housing and childcare programs, 85 are of Somali descent, Attorney General Pam Bondi said on Monday. “I have three words regarding Somalis who have committed fraud against American taxpayers: Send them home,” Emmer said in a statement on social media Monday evening.
