Title: Trump announced MN Somalis will lose Temporary Protected Status
Post by: Flapp_Jackson on November 25, 2025, 02:53:34 PM

President Donald Trump called for the “immediate end” of temporary protected
status of Somali people in Minnesota on Friday, prompting questions about
whether he could take the step alone and what could happen to hundreds of
people in the United States under that designation.

Some Minnesota leaders celebrated the move, saying it could force accountability
after dozens of people were charged with defrauding state programs. Meanwhile,
Somali community leaders and DFL officials said the move cast an entire
community as bad actors and could endanger people’s lives.

Temporary protected status, often referred to as TPS, is a federal designation that
allows people from other countries to remain in the United States and pursue work
and travel authorization if they come from a place experiencing armed conflict,
environmental disasters or other extraordinary conditions.

The Department of Homeland Security decides which countries are designated as
TPS-eligble.

There is no path to citizenship from temporary protected status. It is a self-contained
status from which there is no other place to go unless there is a substantive change
in a person’s circumstances, such as marriage to a permanent resident or citizen, or
if someone is eligible for other immigration protection.

Across the country, there are 705 Somali migrants with temporary protected status,
per a congressional report issued earlier this year. Hundreds of those are in Minnesota.
But far more — tens of thousands of Somali Minnesotans — are legal residents.

On Friday, Trump deemed Minnesota a “hub of fraudulent money laundering activity” in
a post on Truth Social. And he alleged without providing specifics that Somali gangs
were terrorizing Minnesota.

So far, dozens of people in Minnesota have been charged in connection with a scheme
to defraud a COVID-19 era child nutrition program. That was largely through the nonprofit
group Feeding Our Future. Federal officials have also charged others for alleged misuse
of state programs intended to provide autism treatment and housing stabilization services.

Some of the people charged and convicted in those cases came to Minnesota from
Somalia. Though it’s not clear that any of them are on temporary protected status.

governor walz is more concerned that people are using a wide brush to paint a whole community of people (somalis) instead of being concerned if his constituent's tax dollars are being fraudulently sent to a terrorist group in somalia.

Interesting, and to me it doesn't surprise me at all about this walz guy.

I could be wrong but it seems he takes the attitude of "if you see something wrong here, come check it out yourself.....".

Terrific governor. ::)  (to some). :rofl:

Minnesota is a terrifying example of how an American state can be really effortlessly turned into a foreign enclave loyal to another country, even a heinous one like Somalia.

Here is the current mayor of Minneapolis speaking to those he serves - this is real, not a deepfake:

I’ve been to Minnesota - back in the 90’s.  A quintessential mid-western American state.  That place is now ruled by a comparative handful of Somalis.

It’s extreme cuck-ville now.  This is what happens when men are no longer men.

This is why this can never be allowed on American soil.  Surrendered without so much as sternly worded letter …

The guy in the video running against that jacob frey guy looks just like the somali pirates in the video that Flapp posted as the OP.

What do these somalis do?  Engage in incest?  They all look the same..... :rofl:

I heard Ilhan Omar married her brother to gain access to the US.  Not sure if that's true but maybe that's what these people like to do.  I dunno.  Make carbon copies.

Does this sound racist?  Do I sound like I give a sh*t? :rofl: :wave:

The magnitude of the fraud was quite breathtaking. They have zero respect for us and think we are fools for letting them in.

I miss stuff like this.  Back in time when Andy Bumatai,  Rap Reiplinger, Frank DeLima and others would poke fun at all the ethnic groups in Hawaii.

It really was all in fun and I doubt there were people who thought it was hateful and "racist".

We laughed and laughed, not at the ethnic group under fire, but with them, acknowledging all the funny and quirky things we all do.

It was a simpler, more relaxed time when laughter was used to bond people together. :thumbsup: :shaka:

Amen brother - every word of it!

That’s Hawaii to me too - we didn’t know we had it so good … but, hey it lives on in us right?

Whoa!!!.....I take back what I said about somalis all looking the same.  That's one big dude.

And he's decked out like a Delta Force Operative instead of a Police Officer.

And while what he says make sense, will he be able to protect White People?  African Americans?  Hispanics?  All different cultures, languages, etc.

But wait, despite being White, Black, Brown, or Yellow, all of these ethnicities made the effort to blend in with American Culture.

So as a somali LE officer, getting paid with American tax-dollars, is he able to function as an officer for ALL Americans?

Or are we and he supposed to turn on our iPhones and enable the language app to converse with him?  Can he converse in english or is he just being a somali dick?
