The State of the Union was one for the history books.
All hell broke loose as Democrats made a spectacle of themselves.
And Ilhan Omar flew into this insane fit of rage when Trump dropped one massive bombshell.
Elon Musk estimated that 20 percent of the federal budget is fraud.
Federal prosecutors in Minnesota convicted nearly 60 Somali scammers for looting a federal meals program of $9 billion, and journalist Nick Shirley exposed at least $110 million in bogus Somali childcare centers that backed up that claim.
President Trump aimed at Democrat welfare fraud during his State of the Union speech.
“When it comes to the corruption that has plundered, really, it’s plundering America, there’s been no more stunning example than Minnesota, where members of the Somali community have pillaged an estimated $19 billion from the American taxpayer,” Trump began.
Trump pleaded to declare war on welfare fraud in blue states.
“And in actuality, the number is much higher than that. And California, Massachusetts, Maine, and many other states are even worse. This is the kind of corruption that shreds the fabric of a nation, and we are working on it like you wouldn’t believe,” Trump added.
And to show he was serious, President Trump announced Vice President J.D. Vance would lead a new task force to root out fraudulent government spending.
“So tonight, although we started four months ago, I am officially announcing the war on fraud to be led by our great Vice President JD Vance. He’ll get it done. We were able to find enough of that fraud. We will actually have a balanced budget overnight. It will go very quickly. That’s the kind of money you’re talking about. We’ll balance our budget,” Trump declared.
Trump said the welfare fraud schemes Somali scammers pulled off were the direct result of Democrats opening up America’s borders to third-world migrants who brought their criminal values and culture to America.
“The Somali pirates who ransacked Minnesota remind us that there are large parts of the world where bribery, corruption, and lawlessness are the norm, not the exception. Importing these cultures through unrestricted immigration and open borders brings us problems, right here in the USA. And it is the American people who pay the price in higher medical bills, car insurance rates, rent, taxes, and perhaps most importantly, crime,” Trump exclaimed.
As Trump spoke, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who immigrated to the U.S. from Somalia, pitched a fit.

President Trump again posted on Truth Social that Ilhan Omar and her anti-American compatriots should be sent “back from where they came from” due to their ungrateful attitude towards America and their obvious loyalty to their homeland.
