00:00:00.000 The first day this came out, you know, people on Twitter were talking about it.
00:00:04.060 The second day, silence.
00:00:06.320 The third day, Kash Patel responds to it.
00:00:08.780 And I'm sure you saw the tweet on here.
00:00:10.540 Hey, the FBI has awarded recent social media reports in Minnesota.
00:00:13.280 However, even before the public conversation escalated online, the FBI had surged.
00:00:17.240 So he sends this tweet, right?
00:00:18.660 It's dismantled $250 million in fraud, et cetera, et cetera.
00:00:21.780 And then finally, it got to a point that it was so viral that everybody had to cover it.
00:00:28.000 And they barely started covering it yesterday.
00:00:30.560 I don't even think they did on the 29th.
00:00:32.220 I think they started on the 30th.
00:00:34.020 CNN, ABC, CBS, a lot of this other stuff.
00:00:37.700 Has Kash Patel or anybody from the White House reached out to you yet?
00:00:41.260 No, Kash Patel hasn't.
00:00:43.340 Other people have reached out as far as like, hey, do you want to come with us to see what's happening?
00:00:47.000 Or do you want to see what's happening?
00:00:48.640 A lot of people have sent me messages on X.
00:00:50.360 I mean, Mike Johnson was talking about it.
00:00:54.240 And J.D. Vance talked about it.
00:00:56.400 Attorney General Pam Bondi talked about it.
00:00:59.180 Everyone's talking about it.
00:01:00.620 I mean, literally, the GOP was using a video referencing my video on their Instagram yesterday.
00:01:05.680 The GOP was?
00:01:06.700 The GOP official Instagram account.
00:01:08.740 I mean, look, the vice president responded.
00:01:10.600 This dude has done more useful journalism than any of the winners of the 2024 Pulitzer Center Prize.
00:01:16.840 The V.P. has given you.
00:01:19.480 But the FBI hasn't reached out to you at all.
00:01:21.920 No.
00:01:22.760 I mean, I think I can't.
00:01:25.860 There's been so many people that have messaged me.
00:01:27.220 But there's people who are wondering how I got my information from the government.
00:01:31.320 And I've been willing to say, like, yeah, I got it from David.
00:01:36.140 If you want to talk to David, here's David's contact info.
00:01:39.020 But I don't know how the government doesn't have all this information.
00:01:42.720 It's kind of, like, surprising to me.
00:01:44.140 So you're surprised that the government doesn't have this information?
00:01:47.100 Yeah.
00:01:47.280 They're reaching out to me to figure out what's going on.
00:01:49.440 A few of them are.
00:01:50.320 Really?
00:01:50.980 Yeah.
00:01:51.380 Pretty high up of high officials?
00:01:53.380 Not the high up of officials, but the departments.
00:01:56.220 Departments are reaching out to you to see how you got it?
00:01:58.200 Yeah.
00:01:58.860 So are they reaching out to you asking how you got it because they want to catch the
00:02:04.720 person that's blowing the whistle?
00:02:06.220 Or are they reaching out to you because they want to actually find out the work that you're
00:02:11.280 doing, like some access to the information that they don't have themselves?
00:02:14.100 Well, I think they're trying to figure out how to go about this fraud because it's so
00:02:18.260 big and so massive.
00:02:19.880 Because it's not just the daycares.
00:02:21.820 It's the home healthcares.
00:02:22.800 It's the transportation companies.
00:02:24.060 It's the people.
00:02:24.920 It's the translators at the hospitals.
00:02:26.860 It's so vast and big that the network is massive.
00:02:30.720 So I think they're trying to get an understanding of how big it is.
00:02:33.220 And that's why you hear them talking about, we've had fraud for years.
00:02:36.060 Tim Waltz literally admits to the fraud.
00:02:38.060 He's been talking about fraud for, he admitted to fraud yesterday.
00:02:41.580 And he said, it's been happening for years.
00:02:43.200 Okay.
00:02:43.480 If it's been happening for years, why don't you stop it?
00:02:46.000 He said this yesterday.
00:02:47.140 There was the one clip that he moved a flag and there's a whole thing about how Minnesota
00:02:54.500 changed its flag to look pretty much identical to Somali's flag.
00:03:00.360 Somalia's flag.
00:03:01.020 If you've not seen this, take a look at this.
00:03:03.620 First, this is the clip of that.
00:03:04.780 You can play this clip and then we can go matching the flag.
00:03:07.260 Old flag to the new flag.
00:03:08.460 So this is the old Minnesota flag.
00:03:11.280 Right, Rob?
00:03:11.840 That's the Minnesota flag, the old one.
00:03:14.020 And he replaces it with the new flag.
00:03:17.600 I believe that's the new Minnesota flag.
00:03:20.240 I don't think that's Somalia's flag.
00:03:21.360 I think that's their new flag.
00:03:23.300 But if you go to the picture next to you on X, you see how it says go next?
00:03:26.760 No, right there, right there.
00:03:27.860 Yeah.
00:03:28.400 Look at that.
00:03:29.240 They changed their picture.
00:03:30.660 That's the old Minnesota flag on the top left.
00:03:34.680 The bottom left is the new Minnesota flag.
00:03:37.980 And then go look at Somalia's flag on the right.
00:03:41.060 You tell me if you see any similarities.
00:03:44.460 So they changed their flag.
00:03:46.460 Minnesota, nicest people in the world is what they're supposed to be, to the Somalia flag.
00:03:52.040 And then Tim Waltz is sitting out there talking about that.
00:03:55.200 They've been dealing with this for many years.
00:03:57.860 Yet he was bragging, if you have that one clip when he was debating with J.D. Vance,
00:04:01.560 that they are opening up the most daycare centers and record-breaking daycare centers.
00:04:05.760 And they're doing such a good job.
00:04:06.980 This was in the debate, folks.
00:04:08.100 Watch this.
00:04:08.620 We in Minnesota passed a paid family medical leave.
00:04:11.840 You have a child, you.
00:04:13.760 And I had to go back to work five days after my kids were born.
00:04:17.000 This allows you to stay home a certain amount of time.
00:04:19.420 What we know is that gets the child off to a better start.
00:04:22.400 The family works better.
00:04:23.600 We stay in their employers.
00:04:24.860 We get more consistency in that.
00:04:26.420 So Kamala Harris has made it a priority.
00:04:28.160 We implemented it in Minnesota.
00:04:29.520 And we see growth.
00:04:30.820 That's how you become a pro-business state.
00:04:33.740 And so a paid family medical leave program, and I will tell you, go to the families or
00:04:38.240 go to the businesses and ask them.
00:04:40.060 As far as child care on this, you have to take it at both the supply and the demand side.
00:04:45.240 You can't expect the most important people in our lives to take either our children or
00:04:49.600 our parents to get paid the least amount of money.
00:04:52.520 And we have to make it easier for folks to be able to get into that business and then
00:04:56.860 to make sure that folks are able to pay for that.
00:04:58.700 We were able to do it in Minnesota, and I'm still telling you this.
00:05:01.740 We were listed as the best state.
00:05:03.340 We're still in crisis on this.
00:05:04.960 A federal program of paid family medical leave and help with this will enhance our workforce,
00:05:09.840 enhance our families, and make it easier to have the children that you want.
00:05:13.160 So in this debate, he challenged you.
00:05:15.460 If you want to find out, go there.
00:05:16.420 You took up the challenge.
00:05:17.380 Yes.
00:05:17.720 You went there.
00:05:18.300 Took up the challenge.
00:05:18.940 And maybe he shouldn't have said that.
00:05:20.860 Yeah.
00:05:21.240 He shouldn't have said a lot of things.
00:05:22.660 He shouldn't have said a lot of things.
00:05:24.040 He's not the brightest guy.
00:05:24.980 So the FBI hasn't reached out to you.
00:05:28.840 You guys are continuing to go out there and do your thing.
00:05:31.320 I'm Nick Shirley, and you guys can find me here on my neck.
00:05:33.540 Go ahead and ask me any questions, whether it be about politics, about what I believe,
00:05:37.580 or where I think the future of the country will be going, or just quite frankly, anything.
00:05:42.140 You can ask me here on my neck.
00:05:43.720 I really appreciate all your support, and I can't wait to answer your questions.
