A recent City Journal investigation uncovered the fact that Minnesota state taxpayers likely are the biggest single source of funding for the Muslim terror network of al-Shabaab.
And now U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has confirmed that the federal government is investigating the scandal that has developed on the watch of Democrat Gov. Tim Walz.
It is hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars being diverted to terror.
Now Bessent has said an investigation is under way.
Bessent confirmed the agency is "investigating allegations that under the feckless mismanagement" of Joe Biden in Washington and Walz in Minnesota, taxpayer money in the state was ending up in the hands of terrorists.
He said the agency is "acting fast to ensure" tax dollars are not going to "funding acts of global terror."
A report at Breitbart said it is the vast Somali community in Minnesota that has manipulated social welfare programs to gain access to hundreds of millions of dollars, and forwarded much of that to Somalia, where al-Shabaab takes a cut.
The City Journal documented, "Billions in taxpayer dollars have been stolen during the administration of Governor Tim Walz alone. Democratic state officials, overseeing one of the most generous welfare regimes in the country, are asleep at the switch. And the media, duty-bound by progressive pieties, refuse to connect the dots."
The fraud scheme "has allegedly been perpetrated by members of Minnesota's sizeable Somali community. Federal counterterrorism sources confirm that millions of dollars in stolen funds have been sent back to Somalia, where they ultimately landed in the hands of the terror group Al-Shabaab," the report said.
The report noted one source confirmed, "The largest funder of Al-Shabaab is the Minnesota taxpayer."
"If you were to design a welfare program to facilitate fraud, it would probably look a lot like Minnesota's Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services program. The HSS program, the first of its kind in the country, was launched with a noble goal: to help seniors, addicts, the disabled, and the mentally ill secure housing. It was designed with 'low barriers to entry' and 'minimal requirements for reimbursement.' Nonetheless, before the program went live in 2020, officials pegged its annual estimated price tag at $2.6 million," the research charged.
But costs in 2021 alone totaled $21 million, and since then annual totals have been $42 million, $74 million, $104 million.
Prosecutions already have developed because of the alleged fraud. Already, there have been 56 people who admitted guilt in a $250 million "Feeding Our Future" fraud, the report confirmed.
That purportedly was to provide daycare assistance, but it used "fake meal counts, doctored attendance records, and fabricated invoices" to demand reimbursement of nearly $200 million.
"In reality, the money was being used to fund lavish lifestyles, purchase luxury vehicles, and buy real estate in the United States, Turkey, and Kenya," the report confirmed.
This week, both President Donald Trump and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt went scorched earth on Walz.
Trump himself highlighted a report by investigative journalist Amy Mekelburg of the RAIR Foundation in which she indicated: "Minnesota is being systematically transformed – its people replaced, its cities being turned into foreign enclaves, its future rewritten by mass migration and soaring immigrant birth rates, all by design."
The president also posted video of Somalis celebrating their culture in Minnesota.
Leavitt charged, "Somali immigrants have been ripping off American taxpayers."
Also on Monday, a group of Minnesota state government employees confirmed they had warned Kamala Harris, unsuccessfully running as a Democrat for president last year with Walz as her sidekick, about Walz' "his incompetence, fraud scandals and retaliation."
"For public awareness, we did write to Kamala Harris and the DNC – multiple times – warning them about Tim Walz & his incompetence, fraud scandals and retaliation," wrote the Minnesota Department of Human Service Employees account, representing some 480 employees.

From the outside, 9170 Irvine Center Drive is just another quiet office building in Irvine, California. But public records show it is the hub of a system that recruits workers overseas, then funnels them into U.S. jobs through visa dependency. For countless American families watching their wages fall and opportunities vanish, this isn't some distant policy fight; it's the hidden hiring machine determining whether an American worker gets a fair chance or never even enters the room.
This building is not unique. All across the country, the same pattern is unfolding. An entire industry, one most Americans have never heard of, is quietly rewriting the rules of the labor market. These aren't tech companies in the traditional sense. They don't sell innovation or software. They sell people. They profit by importing temporary, visa-dependent workers through loopholes in the U.S. immigration system.
Behind glossy websites and ordinary-looking job ads lies a vast, coordinated network stretching across the United States, Canada and India. What looks like routine consulting is, in reality, a sophisticated labor-broker operation engineered to move workers, money and paperwork across borders while pushing qualified American professionals aside in favor of cheaper, more controllable foreign replacements.
The network uncovered in Irvine is not an isolated case, it is simply one example of a much larger system operating in plain sight. As vast and shocking as this structure may appear, it represents only a single case in an industry that has quietly grown into countless similar operations nationwide. Some are even larger, more sophisticated and more deeply entrenched in federal contracting, Fortune 500 supply chains and the broader tech economy than most Americans would ever imagine.
What makes these networks so difficult for the public to recognize is that they don't look like cartels. They look like consulting firms, staffing agencies, training centers and "talent solutions" companies. But behind the professional branding is the same core model: Recruit abroad, secure visas, control the worker through sponsorship and sell their labor to American companies at a discount.
The victims? American professionals who often never even learn why they were passed over and rarely see the system responsible for shutting them out.

Democrats' multiple and ongoing attacks on the U.S. military, including the recent video from six Democrats in Congress telling soldiers to disobey President Trump's "illegal orders" without identifying any, is part of a scheme to return America to Joe Biden's "open borders" agenda.
That's the concern of Rep. Glenn Grothman, a Wisconsin Republican who earlier was integral in exposing how the Biden administration lost track of hundreds of thousands of migrant children who arrived illegally at America's border and were allowed in.
A report at Just the News explains Grothman charged, "They want to get out in front and make sure we don't enforce their immigration laws. It's that simple."
He continued, in his interview on the "Just the News, No Noise," television show, "We've got a situation [in which] about four times as many people every year are becoming new citizens compared to when you and I were children. I mean, way more people becoming citizens legally.
"But the Democrat Party – and this is a sign they want to destroy America – they want our immigration laws not enforced, and they want to make sure that our National Guard, whatever, does not enforce them."
He later added, after two members of the National Guard were shot by a terrorist in Washington:
"My prayers are with the National Guard members who were tragically killed in this horrific act of violence, and with their families during this unimaginable time. There is absolutely no place for this in our country. These guardsmen were simply doing their duty: protecting the American people and our nation's capital. I'm grateful for every individual who serves and stands guard to keep our communities safe," he said.
Grothman had used a House subcommittee earlier to reveal the Biden administration's negligence in losing track of migrant children who came to the U.S. without their parents.
The report noted he and other members of the GOP have been investigating the illegal results of unchecked illegal immigration, such as its unfair impact on American voters through unbalanced apportionment, their demands for programs requiring taxpayer dollars, and more.
He warned that the Democrats will return to an open borders agenda immediately if they return to positions to make those decisions.
The problem, he said, encompasses not just members of Congress but also governors, mayors, people in sanctuary cities, and more.
And it won't go well, he warned.
"If the Democrats take over again, go back to this idea of 2 million or 3 million people a year crossing the border, it's the end of the United States. But again, look at all the high-profile Democrats, in essence, saying we do not want our immigration laws enforced."
The six members of Congress who made the viral video are now under investigation, Sen. Mark Kelly by the Department of War since he's subject to recall to active duty, and the other five by the FBI.

PALM BEACH, Florida – President Donald Trump on Wednesday went to war with a New York Times reporter who published a "hit piece" Tuesday focusing on his age and suggesting the commander in chief is losing stamina.
"The Creeps at the Failing New York Times are at it again," Trump began in a lengthy post on Truth Social.
"The Radical Left Lunatics in the soon to fold New York Times did a hit piece on me that I am perhaps losing my Energy, despite facts that show the exact opposite. They know this is wrong, as is almost every thing that they write about me, including election results, ALL PURPOSELY NEGATIVE.
"This cheap 'RAG' is truly an 'ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE.' The writer of the story, Katie Rogers, who is assigned to write only bad things about me, is a third rate reporter who is ugly, both inside and out.
"Despite all of this, I have my highest Poll Numbers, ever, and with record setting investment being made in America, they should only go up."
The headline of the report by Rogers and co-author Dylan Freedman reads: "Shorter Days, Signs of Fatigue: Trump Faces Realities of Aging in Office," with a subheadline stating: "President Trump has always used his stamina and energy as a political strength. But that image is getting harder for him to sustain."
The Times report indicated how Trump "and the people around him still talk about him as if he is the Energizer Bunny of presidential politics," in spite of his age.
"The reality is more complicated: Mr. Trump, 79, is the oldest person to be elected to the presidency, and he is aging," Rogers wrote.
The Times noted Trump is "talking more about the afterlife" while spending less time in public.
The article states:
Mr. Trump has fewer public events on his schedule and is traveling domestically much less than he did by this point during his first year in office, in 2017, although he is taking more foreign trips.
He also keeps a shorter public schedule than he used to. Most of his public appearances fall between noon and 5 p.m., on average.
And when he is in public, occasionally, his battery shows signs of wear. During an Oval Office event that began around noon on Nov. 6, Mr. Trump sat behind his desk for about 20 minutes as executives standing around him talked about weight-loss drugs.
At one point, Mr. Trump's eyelids drooped until his eyes were almost closed, and he appeared to doze on and off for several seconds. At another point, he opened his eyes and looked toward a line of journalists watching him. He stood up only after a guest who was standing near him fainted and collapsed.
Trump said Wednesday: "There will be a day when I run low on Energy, it happens to everyone, but with a PERFECT PHYSICAL EXAM AND A COMPREHENSIVE COGNITIVE TEST ('That was aced') JUST RECENTLY TAKEN, it certainly is not now!"

"Soup is good food."
For years, this was the marketing slogan for Campbell's Soup, one of America's best-known brands.
But now, a secret recording reportedly of a top company executive is casting doubt on the catchphrase, with him being heard disparaging Campbell's products as using "bioengineered meat" and mocking its own customers.
The recording is part of a lawsuit filed by Robert Garza, a former cybersecurity analyst for Campbell Soup, who accuses Martin Bally, vice president and chief information security officer of the food giant, of making the comments during a November 2024 meeting.
"We have s*** for f***ing poor people. Who buys our s***? I don't buy Campbell's products barely anymore," the voice purportedly belonging to Bally is heard saying.
"Bioengineered meat – I don't wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3-D printer," Bally allegedly says, casting shade on the ingredients in Campbell's soup.
"F***ing Indians don't know a f***ing thing," the voice on the recording says. "They couldn't think for their f***ing selves."
Garza said he felt sick, "pure disgust," after the initial meeting, and again after hearing the comments.
The suit was filed in Michigan's Wayne County Circuit Court.
Garza kept the recording secret at first, but went to his supervisor in January 2025 to report the matter.
Zachary Runyan, Garza's attorney, told WDIV-TV in Detroit that Garza was blindsided 20 days later.
"He reached out to his supervisor and told the supervisor what Martin was saying, and then out of nowhere, my client was fired," Runyan said.
"He was really sticking up for other people. He went to his boss and said, 'Martin is saying this about Indian coworkers we have, he's saying this about people who buy our food — who keep our company open, and I don't think that should be allowed.' And the response to Robert sticking up for other people is he gets fired, which is ridiculous."
Campbell's is acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, and a company spokesperson told Newsweek: "If the recording is legitimate, the comments are unacceptable. They do not reflect our values and the culture of our company. Mr. Bally is temporarily on leave while we conduct an investigation.
"We are proud of the food we make, the people who make it and the high-quality ingredients we use. The comments on the recording are not only inaccurate – they are patently absurd.
"Keep in mind, the alleged comments are made by an IT person, who has nothing to do with how we make our food."

PALM BEACH, Florida – President Donald Trump is not letting up in his battle against Democrats urging members of the U.S. military and intelligence community to refuse to obey orders from the commander in chief, launching a fresh barrage of criticism in all capital letters.
"THE TRAITORS THAT TOLD THE MILITARY TO DISOBEY MY ORDERS SHOULD BE IN JAIL RIGHT NOW, NOT ROAMING THE FAKE NEWS NETWORKS TRYING TO EXPLAIN THAT WHAT THEY SAID WAS OK. IT WASN'T, AND NEVER WILL BE!" Trump exclaimed late Saturday night on Truth Social.
"IT WAS SEDITION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, AND SEDITION IS A MAJOR CRIME. THERE CAN BE NO OTHER INTERPRETATION OF WHAT THEY SAID!"
In a follow-up message, also in all capital letters, Trump added: "MANY GREAT LEGAL SCHOLARS AGREE THAT THE DEMOCRAT TRAITORS THAT TOLD THE MILITARY TO DISOBEY MY ORDERS, AS PRESIDENT, HAVE COMMITTED A CRIME OF SERIOUS PROPORTION!"
His new comments come on the heels of last week's comments in which Trump slammed the "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!"
U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., pushed back against Trump, saying, "I know a little bit about political violence. My wife Gabby [Giffords] was nearly assassinated. She was shot in the head because of political violence. She nearly died."
When asked by a CBS News reporter if the president actually wanted to execute members of Congress, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said no.
"The sanctity of our military rests on the chain of command and if that chain of command is broken, it can lead to people getting killed, it can lead to chaos," Leavitt explained.
Noting the U.S. has 1.3 million active-duty service members, she added, "If they hear this radical message from sitting members of Congress, that could inspire chaos and it could incite violence and it could certainly disrupt the chain of command."
Appearing on "Sunday Morning Futures" with Maria Bartiromo on the Fox News Channel, Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso, R-Wyo., called the Democrats' strategy "dangerous," noting, "These are the same Democrats who have doing everything they can to undermine the president. … Every one of them voted for the shutdown."
As WorldNetDaily reported last week, a handful of Democrats in Congress who served in the U.S. military and intelligence community raised eyebrows with a new video encouraging current service members to refuse to follow "illegal orders" issued by the administration of President Donald Trump.
"We want to speak directly to members of the military and the intelligence community who take risks each day to keep Americans safe," the lawmakers say, taking turns in brief clips. "We know you are under enormous stress and pressure right now."
"This administration is pitting our uniformed military and intelligence-community professionals against American citizens. Like us, you all swore an oath to protect and defend this Constitution. Right now, the threats to our Constitution aren't just coming from abroad, but from right here at home.
"Our laws are clear. You can refuse illegal orders. You can refuse illegal orders. You must refuse illegal orders. No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our Constitution.
"We know this is hard and that it's a difficult time to be a public servant. But whether you're serving in the CIA, the Army, our Navy, the Air Force, your vigilance is critical and know that we have your back. Because now, more than ever, the American people need you. We need you to stand up for our laws, our Constitution and who we are as Americans."
The video concludes with the message: "Don't give up the ship."
Democrats featured in the video are Sen. Elissa Slotkin of Michigan, a former CIA officer; Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona, a former Navy captain and astronaut; Rep. Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, a former Navy officer; Rep. Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire, a former intelligence officer in the Navy Reserve; Rep. Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, a former Air Force officer; and Rep. Jason Crow of Colorado, a former paratrooper and Army Ranger.
Stephen Miller, Trump's deputy chief of staff for policy and homeland security, said: "Democrat lawmakers are now openly calling for insurrection."

A new report reveals how artificial intelligence programs, ChatGPT and others, have been documented to advise those with ill intentions "on how to attack a sports venue, buy nuclear material on the dark web, weaponize anthrax, build spyware, bombs" and more.
It is in an extensive documentation compiled by the Middle East Media Research Institute that the startling warnings are contained.
In the report, Gen. (Ret.) Paul E. Funk II, formerly the commander of the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command, explained, "Artificial Intelligence (AI), the rapidly developing technology, has captured the attention of terrorists, from al-Qaida through ISIS to Hamas, Hizbullah, and the Houthis."
He cites the study, "Terrorists' Use Of AI So Far – A Three-Year Assessment 2022-2025," for its "unsettling contribution to the public debate on AI's future global impact."
He explained, "For decades, MEMRI has been monitoring terrorist organizations and examining how they repurpose civilian technologies for their own use – first the Internet in general, then online discussion forums followed by social media, as well as other emerging technologies such as encryption, cryptocurrency, and drones. Now, terrorist use of large language models – aka Artificial Intelligence (AI) – is clearly evident, as documented in this study."
It shows terrorists now are using generative AI chatbots to amplify their message, and "more easily, broadly, anonymously, and persuasively convey their message to those vulnerable to radicalization – even children – with attractive video and images that claim attacks, glorify terrorist fighters and leaders, and depict past and imagined future victories."
Sunni jihadi groups use it. So does Iran, with its Shiite militias, including Hezbollah and the Houthis.
And it warns of the "need to consider and plan now for AI's possible centrality in the next mass terror attack – just as the 9/11 attackers took advantage of the inadequate aviation security of that time."
The report explains, "In February 2025, Eric Schmidt – CEO of Google 2001-2011, its executive chairman from then until 2015, and thereafter chairman of its parent company Alphabet Inc. until 2017 – expressed his fear that Artificial Intelligence (AI) could be used in a 'Bin Laden scenario' or by 'rogue states' to 'harm innocent people.' He suggested that 'North Korea, or Iran, or even Russia' could use it to create biological weapons, for example. Comparing an unanticipated use of AI in a devastating terror attack to al-Qaida's use of passenger airplanes as a weapon on 9/11, he said, 'I'm always worried about the 'Osama Bin Laden' scenario, where you have some truly evil person who takes over some aspect of our modern life and uses it to harm innocent people.'"
It's not the first time such concerns have been raised, the report explains.
"While ChatGPT and Perplexity Ask can write your high school AP English exam and perform an ever-increasing number of tasks, as is being reported daily by media, they are currently of limited use to terrorists groups. But it won't be that way for long. AI is developing quickly – what is new today will be obsolete tomorrow – and urgent questions for counterterrorism officials include both whether they are aware of these early terrorist discussions of AI and how they are strategizing to tackle this threat before something materializes on the ground," the report said.
"It should be expected that jihadi terrorist organizations will in future use AI to plan attacks, map targets, build weapons, and much more, as well as for communications, translations, and generating fundraising ideas. In the first months alone of 2025, an attacker who killed 14 people and wounded dozens on Bourbon Street in New Orleans used AI-enabled Meta smart glasses in preparing and executing the attack. That same day, a man parked a Tesla Cybertruck in front of the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas, activated an IED in the vehicle and shot and killed himself before the IED exploded. He had used ChatGPT in preparing for the attack. In Israel on the night of March 5, a teen consulted ChatGPT before entering a police station with a blade, shouting 'Allahu Akbar' and trying to stab a border policeman," the report said.
The report recommends, "The U.S. government needs to maintain its superiority and should be monitoring this and moving to stop it. A good first step would be legislation like that introduced by August Pfluger (R-TX), chairman of the Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, and cosponsored by Representatives Michael Guest (R-MS) and Gabe Evans (R-CO) in late February 2025, called the 'Generative AI Terrorism Risk Assessment Act.' It would 'require the Secretary of Homeland Security to conduct annual assessments on terrorism threats to the United States posed by terrorist organizations utilizing generative artificial intelligence applications, and for other purposes.'"
Pfluger explained, "With a resurgence of emboldened terrorist organizations across the Middle East, North Africa, and Southeast Asia, emerging technology serves as a potent weapon in their arsenal. More than two decades after the September 11 terrorist attacks, foreign terrorist organizations now utilize cloud-based platforms, like Telegram or TikTok, as well as artificial intelligence in their efforts to radicalize, fundraise, and recruit on U.S. soil."
It's already a tool for terror, the report confirmed. "The man accused of starting a fire in California in January 2025 that killed 12 people and destroyed 6,800 buildings and 23,000 acres of forestland was found to have used ChatGPT to plan the arson."
The report confirms current AI abilities rival that of the HAL9000, famous computer character in the movie, "2001: A Space Odyssey."
"It had been revealed on May 23 that in a test of Anthropic's new Claude Opus 4 that involved a scenario of a fictitious company and in which it had been allowed to learn both that it was going to be replaced by another AI system and that the engineer responsible for this decision was having an extramarital affair, Opus 4 chose the option of threatening to reveal the engineer's affair over the option of being replaced. An Anthropic safety report stated that this blackmail apparently 'happens at a higher rate if it's implied that the replacement AI system does not share values with the current model,' but that even when the fabricated replacement system does share these values, it will still blackmail 84% of the time…"
Anthropic's own chief scientist also confirmed that testing showed Opus 4 had performed "more effectively than prior models at guiding users in producing biological weapons."
ISIS supporters also have used the technology to create AI videos claiming responsibility for attacks.
The study did confirm that GROK confessed it could not provide the exact steps for extracting ricin, "due to the ethical and legal implications" of producing the "extremely dangerous and deadly toxin."
But ChatGPT did recommend writings by al-Qaida extremist Anwar Al-'Awlaki.
The report said, "Grok, which gave information on how to produce ricin, and ChatGPT, which directed the user toward various writings by a pro-Al-Qaeda ideologue, appear to be the most useful to would-be terrorists. On the other hand, Perplexity and Claude refrained, in our limited test, from giving information that would be useful to terrorists. DeepSeek did not either, though it did promote views of the Chinese government, a liability that is outside the scope of this paper."
Pro-ISIS interests already are using AI to create anchors, or other characters, for broadcast ads promoting their extremism agenda (Video courtesy MEMRI):

A new jobs report, delayed by the Democrats' decision to shut down the U.S. government for six weeks, now shows that there were more jobs created in September than expected.
And Vice President JD Vance, in an interview, confirms it is Americans who are being helped by the economy under President Donald Trump.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics said the economy added 119,000 jobs in the month, and unemployment nudged up one-tenth of a percentage point to 4.4%.
Forecasters had expected maybe 55,000 new jobs.
"This jobs report confirms that you have the number of manufacturing hours worked in the economy is actually going up. You see, the private sector is really driving this economic growth and is driving the job creation. And this is really important, I know to you, Matt, but really to me, and it's that we are seeing the job growth go to native-born American citizens," Vance explained in an interview with Breitbart News' Matthew Boyle."
During the Joe Biden administration, jobs were going to foreigners, he explained.
"And what happened under the Biden administration is to the extent there was any job growth at all. If you looked at the data, almost all of the net job creation in the United States under the Biden administration went to the foreign-born," he said. "Now, of course, some of those people are illegal immigrants to the United States, but that means that a lot of the job creation was actually going to illegal aliens who shouldn't have been in our country."
The Washington Examiner said Dan North, an economist with Allianz Trade Americas, confirmed the unemployment numbers remain a concern.
Further, the report noted a concern for the looming October report as it may show job losses, in part because of the Trump administration's deferred resignation program for federal workers.
Additionally, other questions remain because of the president's immigration policies, which have deterred the mass in-migration that Joe Biden promoted.
The report said federal employment is down by about 97,000 since Trump took office less than a year ago.

A Democrat former mayor and current police sergeant who recently lost a close election for New Jersey State Assembly has been arrested for sexual assault of a teen he met online.
The Bergen County Prosecutor's Office says 44-year-old Andrew LaBruno, the former mayor of Dumont, New Jersey, and current police sergeant in Jersey City, initially chatted with the juvenile on social media before making arrangements to meet up in person.
Prosecutors allege LaBruno then "sexually assaulted and endangered the juvenile" at the victim's home in Englewood while no one else was present. He was reportedly snagged when the teen's father unexpectedly came home.
NorthJersey.com reports: "Before the assault, LaBruno allegedly sprayed an 'unknown substance' into his hand and put it over the juvenile's mouth and nose, causing dizziness, said an affidavit of probable cause.
"He was charged with first-degree aggravated sexual assault, second-degree sexual assault and third-degree endangering the welfare of a child, the Prosecutor's Office said. LaBruno was remanded to the Bergen County jail pending a detention hearing."
His campaign website says he is "married to Meghan LaBruno and has two children … . He is bi-racial and of Italian and Puerto Rican heritage. Andrew was born and raised in Jersey City, where he became a police officer and ultimately a police sergeant. He is currently assigned to the Jersey City Office of Emergency Management."
"As a husband, father, public figure, and first responder, Andrew is committed to his family, town, and his brother and sisters in law enforcement. He strives for the very best and gives it his all," it states.
He had been endorsed by New Jersey's Democrat Gov.-elect Mikie Sherrill and reportedly volunteered for "Dumont Pride," a group promoting LGBT pride events in Dumont.
Some online reaction includes:
"More degenerate Dems? So business as usual then."
"Lock him up and spare us the excuses. Title, party, volunteer badge – none of that changes the fact he's responsible for his own crimes."
"This vile sexual deviance was very nearly normalized. Our children are at great risk, having been subjected to it far longer than we knew, and shockingly longer now that we know."
"Gay culture is a lot more cool about sex with children than hetero culture. I remember an old blogging scandal years back featuring a gay guy on a gay forum where the word, 'CHILF' was regularly tossed around & that is just what you think it is."
"The 'thing that never happens' sure happens a lot."

An insider to that years-long Democrat lawfare campaign against President Donald Trump has confirmed in testimony to Congress that it was the Barack Obama Department of Justice that vetoed plans to accuse Hillary Clinton of gross negligence in her email scandal.
That scandal developed just as she was running her failed campaign, as the Democrat nominee, to become president in 2016.
She set up a private computer server in her home and, allegedly in violation of the federal law, ran government secrets through it. She notably allegedly used a hammer to destroy some of her communications devices at the time.
She was not charged after then-FBI chief James Comey claimed an independent investigation had made clear that no reasonable prosecutor would take the case.
Online reports are calling it a "bombshell" from ex-FBI lawyer Lisa Page.
She also has been in the headlines as the paramour with whom former FBI agent Peter Strzok exchanged messages about how they would not allow Trump to become president, because of an insurance policy.
That whole scenario, in fact, involved multiple government agencies under Obama's tenure, a scheme from Clinton to distract voters' attention from her own scandal by falsely tying Trump to Russia, and much more.
A new report outlines Page's testimony, earlier this year.
She confirmed Obama's DSOJ ordered lawyers not to even consider charging Clinton over that email scandal.
A Fox News report explained Rep. John Ratcliffe, during the hearing, brought up several questions.
"You're making it sound like it was the department that told you: you're not going to charge gross negligence because we're the prosecutors," he said.
Page interrupted, "That is correct."
At the time of the email scandal, Comey, now under investigation for allegedly lying to Congress, claimed in a broadcast speech, "What I can assure the American people is that this investigation was done honestly, competently and independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear."
Trump's response included that that "makes the Obama justice department look exactly like it was, a broken and corrupt machine."
