You would think they would be smart enough to drive to a different airport to make it less obvious, but they're just smart enough to scam the system.

Why not just wire it to Somalia? Seems like a bullshitty story.

Big difference between flagged and seized. Nothing was seized. We let it fly right out of the country

Is it a scam when you pay kick backs to be allowed to do it?

This shite isn’t a scam it is being enabled by people like Tim Walz.

Flagged leaves a paper trail and Trump said he would claw it ALL back.

Then how are they getting the cash? Government fraud checks still have to be deposited then cashed in some way. All of which is also regulated.

I seriously doubt Somalian immigrants are smart enough to come up with this scam on their own. Id bet they were directed on what to do and then given a percentage.

Regulated by who? The auditing bodies are coming up to locations that look like this:

So they are pulling a million dollars cash out of that shitty little ATM?

Think about this critically for 30 seconds.

Where are they getting the cash?

Meh.... the offshore banks do not fall under any jurisdiction laws. It's where all the global terrorism and drug trade leaders funnel their money.

I can't explain why the Somalis wouldn't do the same, but the opportunity is certainly there to do so.

The TSA agents were bribed or told to let the money pass through. It's an entire operation. There was some former TSA agent that came forward about this. They use the same airport because there was an "agreement" to look the other way as it's transported back to Somalia.

"There are Somali couriers who come to the airport almost daily with $1,600,000 in cash in a luggage. That sounds a little suspicious, right?"

"It was going on daily, and they were moving about $350 million a year in cash in their luggage out of Minneapolis airport and then traditionally or predominantly overseas."

"One of the routes that TSA saw the money go, it would go from Minneapolis to Europe, Europe to Dubai, often through Amsterdam. It was flagged for years. TSA was flagging these payments for years."

"They grew. They grew from $20, $30 million a year to $350 million a year in the last two years, 2024 and 2025."

"It was literally a foreign ATM taking cash out of the United States to foreign destinations. We don't know the reason why, but that is now under investigation by the FBI and HSI. People say, well, is this normal?!"

Their "businesses" are given taxpayer money to operate. They then turn that free money into cash at a bank or by "contracting" to another company which can then take that free money and turn it into cash.

They can pay "employees" who can then cash checks or withdraw funds without scrutiny.

Also, they are buying EBT cards for half value, buying food for a business with the EBT, and then making cash on those sales.

How do blacks in the ghetto get cash from their taxpayer money? This has been happening for decades.

None of that equates to a million dollars in cash in a suitcase at the airport.
