Misspelled Minnesota day care closed last week, state claims — on same day owners told The Post it’s up and running


MINNEAPOLIS — The misspelled day care at the center of viral outrage over the Somali community’s multibillion-dollar fraud scandal shut down last week, the head of Minnesota’s child services department claimed Monday — at the same time that the owners of the facility put on a dog and pony show for The Post to demonstrate that it was really a working day care and not a front.
Tikki Brown, commissioner of Minnesota’s Department of Children, Youth and Families, told reporters that her staff found no evidence of fraud at any of the day cares highlighted by YouTuber Nick Shirley.​
She stated that the Quality “Learing” Center had closed.​

I was sure the error was going to be "Minnessotta" or similar.

Missing the n from learning is almost certainly just sloppiness, from someone who does actually know the proper spelling.

This is truly yellow journalism's best performance.

Yellow Jurnalisim defined :
Yellow journalism is a style of reporting that emphasizes sensationalism, exaggerated claims, and sometimes fabricated stories over objective facts to attract readers and boost sales. This type of reporting often uses dramatic headlines and vivid imagery, and the term originated in the late 19th-century competition between Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst.

Nick Shirley, also well known as a prankster on YouTube, learned to dress up his shock tactics as "journalism." You can't trust his reporting. Remember the video he did in Kyiv, Ukraine, where he made all those wild claims? He later claimed that he was just "making satire on the internet." That tells us everything we need to know. He is pulling the same stunt in Minnesota and the right wing is falling for it. He rolls up and films "empty" child care centers, probably on a Saturday or a holiday, and acts like he just cracked the case of the century. He's not exposing fraud; he's just using his platform to unfairly trash an entire Somali community and ignore all the hard-working folks providing essential care. It's sensationalized garbage that uses a handful of rumors to paint a huge group of people as criminals. The real truth is, a serious criminal case needs real evidence, not some persons edited, outrage-bait video. Let us reason, please.

Thank you -did you read what was in red and bolded?

If you did - it negates most of your argument.,
Well, I it only took me a minute or two to figure out the fabrications from David. Maybe do the research first before posting?
Thanks for sharing.

In Minnesota's massive daycare fraud cases, involving millions in stolen federal funds (like Feeding Our Future), the U.S. Attorney's office has charged
around 98 individuals, with the vast majority, roughly 82 to 85 of them, being of Somali descent, according to reports from late 2025. These charges stem from schemes misusing child nutrition funds, with many defendants from the state's large Somali-American community facing accusations,

David in the viral video.
Yup - I am aware - that is why I said that isn't David -

It's an ongoing investigation that is encompassing state and federal law enforcement agencies -

Pretty extensive for yellow journalism. ya think?

Yes, the non profit, Feeding Our Future, masterminded by Amiee Bock. This is old news from 2021. I guess it is way too inconvenient to mention her in anyones article. But I get it now. The vilification of immigrants is the true goal here.
