An alleged multi-decade plot to import Somali refugees as a loyal voting bloc is back in the spotlight as investigations ramp up investigations over a fraudulent voting registration scheme and DNI Kristi Noem’s recent revelations detailing how 50% of the Somalians in Minnesota committed immigration Fraud.

Abdullahi Ahmed and Mohamed Ahmed allegedly fabricated names, addresses, and details to submit forms, with the goal of getting democrat votes.
The plot highlights how federal resettlement policies since the 1990s clustered ~80,000 Somalis in Minnesota, creating a demographic primed for fraud through quick work permits, SSNs, and citizenship paths.
