Jennings: "Until Somebody In Power Goes To Jail", Blue State Fraud Won't Stop

• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Steve Watson

Jennings addressed the rot in blue states where massive fraud schemes have flourished under lax oversight. Facing pushback from host Abby Phillip, Jennings insisted that prosecuting small-time operators isn't enough—real change demands jailing those at the top who allowed it all to happen.

The discussion centered on the sprawling welfare fraud in Minnesota, but Jennings expanded it to a nationwide indictment of blue state governance. When Phillip defended ongoing probes, saying, "This idea that nothing is being done, that no one is being held accountable, that this was just left to run rampant, is completely false," Jennings countered sharply.

"Well, some people have been held accountable. But I think in the opinion of most Republicans, not nearly enough," he replied.

He then delivered the core demand: "And truthfully, until somebody in a position of power, until somebody in a position in Minnesota, elected position, who was in charge of administering this or having some oversight over it, goes to jail, it's honestly never going to stop."

Jennings broadened the scope: "Look what's going on in blue states across the country: 9 billion in Minnesota, 70 billion in fraud in California, cooking the crime stats in Washington, D.C."

Driving the point home, he asked, "When is someone in a position of power going to go to jail for the rampant fraud?" and added, "You can put all the low-level people in jail you want, but until somebody in charge goes to jail, it won't stop!"

The scandal Jennings spotlighted involves Somali-led operations in Minneapolis, where billions in federal welfare funds—intended for children and the vulnerable—were siphoned through fake daycares and shell companies.

Estimates peg the theft at $9 billion in Minnesota alone, part of a larger pattern tied to unvetted immigration and weak enforcement. The Trump administration's DOJ is now intensifying efforts, with door-to-door probes by Homeland Security targeting suspected sites.

This surge follows viral exposures, including a video by Youtuber Nick Shirley touring dozens of Somali-run daycares implicated in the schemes.
