Dem lawmaker insists ‘white men’ are the real problem during hearing on Somali fraud

January 8, 2026 | | Print Article

A House Democrat sought to distract from the purpose of a House Oversight Committee hearing on rampant Somali fraud in Minnesota by shifting the topic to blaming white men, a demographic that has been relentlessly scapegoated for years.

Rep. Emily Randall (D-WA) used her time during the Wednesday hearing to throw down the race card instead of doing her job of engaging in legitimate oversight of a massive scandal that has already forced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to abandon his reelection bid amid the uproar after an independent journalist’s bombshell video exposed alleged fraud at Somali-run daycares.

While she was questioning Republican Minnesota state Rep. Kristin Robbins, Randall suggested that the committee shouldn’t bother with investigating the fraudsters but rather crimes that are committed by whitey and by some of the J6 political prisoners who were pardoned by President Donald J. Trump last year.

“What percentage of sexual assaults in the United States are committed by white men?” Randall asked. “Fifty-seven percent,” also citing data to claim that 33 “J6 insurrectionists” who received pardons had been convicted of separate crimes.

“We can trot out all the data that we want to create the sense that there is a bad guy. There is a bad group of people. There are folks that are not among us. There are folks who are other. And I think we should spend a lot more time looking at ourselves,” the Washington State Democrat added.

“Looking at American citizens. Looking at White men who are committing violence at disproportionate rates in our country, who are committing crimes at disproportionate rates in our country, including the President of the United States, who is sitting at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, as so many of my colleagues have pointed out,” added Randall in her unhinged rant at the hearing which comes after dozens of indictments of Somali swindlers who scammed taxpayers by pilfering funds intended to feed hungry kids.

“The fraudsters — many of whom are from Minnesota’s Somali community — have stolen from programs meant to feed needy kids, provide services to autistic children, house low-income and disabled Americans, and provide healthcare to vulnerable Medicaid recipients,” Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer said during the hearing.

The White House responded to the left-wing lawmaker’s protection of foreign criminals and their rip-off schemes.

“Well-known symptoms of Trump Derangement Syndrome include: unhinged rantings and defending Somali fraudsters who rip off American taxpayers. It sounds like Emily is unfortunately very sick. She should remember she was elected to represent hardworking Americans, not the fraudsters who steal their money.” White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson said, according to Fox News.
