A viral video allegedly showing abandoned day cares in Minnesota drew the attention of the FBI and Vice President JD Vance, the latest in a wave of scrutiny on the state amid an ongoing fraud investigation targeting social services.

The video by online conservative influencer Nick Shirley shows him visiting multiple day care centers in Minnesota that appear to be abandoned despite being licensed to serve dozens of children and receiving public funds.

Since being posted on Dec. 26, Shirley's 42-minute long video has racked up over 100 million views on X. Vance applauded the video, writing on social media, "This dude has done far more useful journalism than any of the winners of the 2024 @pulitzercenter prizes."

On Dec. 28, FBI Director Kash Patel weighed in, saying the bureau is "aware of recent social media reports in Minnesota," adding that the FBI has already "surged" investigative resources to the state to probe the alleged fraud.

If there's fraud going on it should be dealt with. If you think this will distract from folks who will soon see their health insurance rates go up you have your head up your ass.

1. Exactly, instead of dealing with the fraud they want to attack people for their race, religion, etc

But we know right wingers only get upset if certain people are committing fraud or other crimes. They puck their own to be President .
