Daycare scandal deepens as unearthed video shows parents 'pretending to drop kids off before they all leave just MINUTES later'
The ongoing daycare fraud scandal in Minnesota dates back a decade as an unearthed 2015 video appeared to show parents pretending to drop their children off at an alleged phony center.
The bombshell footage came to light as FBI Director Kash Patel revealed the bureau is cracking down on potential abuse after one daycare was accused of stealing $4 million in taxpayer's money.
The video from Hennepin County - Minnesota's largest county by population - was recorded in March 2015, then uncovered in 2018 and has now resurfaced. It shows parents appearing to bring their kids in, purportedly to spend the day, before they all immediately leave.
When the case was prosecuted by the county, it was discovered that the scam allowed providers to claim reimbursement funds despite never providing any actual care, Fox News reported.
The center would even claim reimbursement for days when parents didn't bother to put on a show and fake bringing their kids over.
A local Fox station in Minnesota even showed footage of an alleged kickback payment given to someone who took part.
At least four different centers took part in the scheme which stole $1 million out of the government's coffers.
'They were billing too much, they went up to high. It's hard to imagine they were serving that many people,' said then-Hennepin County attorney Mike Freeman.
'Frankly if you're going to cheat, cheat little, because if you cheat big you're going to get caught.'

These ladies have recently dismissed cases against Somali fraudsters in Minnesota, even overturning jury verdicts, allowing the immigrants stealing millions from Americans and Minnesotans to walk free.
Each of these judges found small, technical prosecutorial errors, resulting in the cases being tossed.
Here's local reporting in Minnesota on the case where Judge Sarah West tossed the jury verdict:
More Minnesota reporting:
The case was tossed.

Such upstanding judges … so committed to the rule of law!
Here's local reporting in Minnesota on the case where Judge Sarah West tossed the jury verdict:
When the one case was tossed, these other lady judges decided to toss the related cases.
More Minnesota reporting:
So ... the judge used a different standard and decided that there was a possibility that the defendant might not be guilty of fraud.
The case was tossed.
The other judges in the cases against the first defendant's wife (and one of his associates) also tossed those cases.
Even with the unanimous jury decision.
California abandons legal battle to restore $4B in federal funding for long-delayed high-speed rail project
Fox ^ | 12/30/2025 | Ashley Carnahan
...California dropped its lawsuit against the Trump administration after it pulled roughly $4 billion in federal funding for the state’s high-speed rail project...
...Court records show that California Attorney General Rob Bonta’s office filed a notice on Dec. 23 voluntarily dismissing the lawsuit without prejudice on behalf of the California High-Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA), which had been seeking to have the federal funding reinstated....
....An authority spokesperson told Fox News Digital the loss of federal funding will not derail the project or construction because most of the funding comes from the state through the voter-approved Proposition 1A and the Cap-and-Invest program. The spokesperson said federal dollars account for about 18% of total program expenditures and that the state is moving forward without them....

Biden Housing Scandal EXPLODES: HUD Report Reveals Over $5 Billion in Questionable Rental Aid, Including Payments to Dead People and Non-Citizens
A bombshell federal report has blown the lid off yet another massive Biden-era taxpayer scandal — this time inside the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
According to HUD’s own Fiscal Year 2025 Agency Financial Report, more than $5 billion in rental assistance payments during the final year of the Biden regime were flagged as “questionable” or improper, exposing systemic failures, nonexistent oversight, and breathtaking incompetence at the federal level.
Among the most jaw-dropping revelations: tens of thousands of payments were made to people who were already DEAD, and thousands more went to recipients who may not have even been eligible to receive taxpayer-funded housing assistance at all, the New York Post first reported.
Buried in the HUD report is a stunning admission that federal systems failed to stop payments to 30,054 deceased individuals who were either still listed as active tenants or continued receiving rental assistance after their deaths.
