Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't find AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
Lou Penrose sitting in for John Cobelt on New Year's Eve.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Good to be with you. Well, this one I did
not see coming.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Of all the political discussions and political arguments that we
are having, the Trump administration has banned foreign made drones
and their critical components. The ban is due to national
security concerns, according to the FCC.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
The FCC says that hostile actors.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
The makers of the drones, I guess could take advantage
of upcoming mass events like the World Cup the twenty
twenty eight Olympics in Los Angeles using the technology. But
law enforcement and fire departments also use these drones.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And they don't know now where to go to get
new drones.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Joining us Alex Stone from ABC News here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Alex never saw this one coming. This is an interesting
little fight and I'm not even sure where to go
with it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, police departments seem kind of caught off guard by it,
and fire departments as well because they use these drones.
And DJI is one of the most popular drone companies
in the world and the one that a lot of
police departments, a lot of fire departments use, and now
they can't get what they need. So this went into
effect last week. This FCC rule, it bans foreign made
(01:21):
drones from being imported into the US. It includes any
parts coming in to maintain drones that are already in
the US.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
And then we're.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Told by the users of these drones that software and
firmware updates are also now blocked, so they can't update
them either. And the police and fire departments and that
there are many in the LA area that use these
drones that are being impacted. And Dji is a Chinese company.
Most other drone companies are Chinese or some other foreign
(01:52):
source of the drone, and so the Trump administration is
saying they could be a threat and that they are
banning these drones. This is now a very quick, real
problem for police and fire departments to rely on them.
Out in Palm Springs. They're telling us.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
This probably about eighty percent of law enforcement agencies are
using this type of technology, so it could impact public safety.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
And so the agencies are scrambling. They rely on these
for all kinds of calls and rescues, and they can't
even update them right now when they need to be updated.
The models that are already in the US, that have
already been imported, they can stay, and if they're at
stores or at companies to be sold to somebody, they
can remain as well, but new ones cannot come in.
(02:34):
DJI that one of the biggest companies, has been pushing
back against the Trump administration, claiming they don't send data
back to China, that they're not controlled out of China
the drones, that it's the operator on the ground video
from whatever the LAPD is doing, or the sheriff's department
or burbank police or yeah, any agency that's not going
(02:54):
back to China to be looked at. But police here
is saying now they're caught in the middle of this.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Our entire their own fleet is comprised of DJI technology, so.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Out in Palm Springs and most other police departments, they're
trying to figure out what they're going to do, how
they get replacement parts once they're needed, how they keep
their drones flying and drone pilots loo they're saying, to
be blunt with the whole thing, that US made drones
aren't good and they're crazy expensive and don't work well,
and so you can't just go, well, let me just
(03:24):
go buy a drone made in the US. So it
means they're trying to figure out how they don't ground
their drone programs over time as they need parts and
as they need new items and new technology comes in,
and they may smaller agencies may have to go back
to the bigger agencies like it used to be and
asked to use their helicopters again, putting it's a lot
more expensive for jet fuel and putting humans at risk
(03:48):
flying above, and a lot louder all of that.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
But out in Palm Springs are saying.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
If that we're forced into the scenario where we have
to buy US made drones, the cost is pretty exorbitant,
so I can't imagine that we be feasible for us
to replace the entire fleet.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So the police agencies and fire departments are calling on
the Trump administration to get this figured out. Did they
say that they this is not feasible to trash all
of the drones that they've got to end all of
that that they need their drones.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
DJI as a company has been trying to be forthcoming,
has been reaching out. I mean that's just what I've
been reading. But I just hope at some point it
gets resolved.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
But this is not only police and fire departments. This
is going to impact hobbyists, delivery companies that are coming
up with plans to deliver items via drone, Farmers that
map out and look at that their plots of land
deciding where they're going to do whatever they're going to
do on their land, mapping companies, filmmakers here in La,
(04:45):
TV companies, news production, and a lot of drone work
is now done. But this band specifically goes after anything
that uses communication or video equipment from a drone, which
is what many of the companies in southern California what
they're doing with drones and police departments and fire departments
to look for people, search and rescue. So, while it
impacts a lot of different entities, police and fire departments
(05:08):
are saying they use these every day now and with
this band that they're not able to update them, they're
not able to get new ones. That this is going
to be a big impact.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
So the FCC is saying the ban is due to
national security concerns, Well, there had to have been national security.
The same concerns had to be there yesterday, last.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Month, and last year.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
The good thing about this administration is it makes decisions
and it acts.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
The bad thing.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
About this administration is it makes decisions and acts. I mean,
they just it sometimes seems like there isn't time to
phase in or get feedback in through the feedback channels
as to the because everything has consequences, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
And the allegation is that these companies, and there are
numerous companies, Dji being just the biggest of them, that
they have been sending data back to China from the
police departments could be doing, or search and rescue could.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Be doing what he's looking at him posts.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
That's my question. I mean, what are they going to see,
you know, the Angelus National Forest flying over it and
looking for somebody I don't know. But kind of more
of what they're talking about now is that China could
see stuff that's being planned security for the Olympics, if
we're closer to the Olympics and they're flying over it,
or for the World Cup or for the America two
(06:22):
fifty celebration, that they would be able to see in
real time where police are and maybe get live feeds
back and whatnot. But these companies are saying no, that
this stuff, that they're not getting flight plans, that they're
not getting live video back in China, that it's barely
feeding back to the controller down on the ground or
to the command post down on the ground, let alone
thousands of miles away. So the US government has got
(06:44):
to figure this out. If enough law enforcement and probably
federal agencies as well, that this is going to impact,
no doubt, the FBI and Homeland Security in others, if
they can't use drones, that there may be a large
enough drum beat in Washington to say, hey, you can't
take these. And I wouldn't be surprised if they begin
working again and law enforcement can begin getting them, but
(07:05):
as of right now, they can't get them.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Alex Stone, ABC News, thank you so much. I appreciate
a happy New Year to you. We'll see this story
gets settled out.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
In the new year. Oh my god, thank you. That's
this one that I never saw coming.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Yeah, when you consider the list that Alex has laid
out of the industries that use zone zoned drones and
zoom in on technology. Also the real estate industry constantly
using those drones, unbelievable, all right, When we come back.
So this Somali fraudster Minneapolis child daycare center controversy has
(07:41):
blown up and now everybody with a cell phone camera
wants to be Nick Shirley.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Which is great.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
This is really great because now without the resources of ABC,
NBCCBS and Fox, individuals are literally doing shoe leather reporting
and uncovering fraud all over the United States.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Now, Seattle, in Philadelphia. Guess what.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
You go into the Somali communities of these cities and
guess what's going on. Fraudulent daycare centers as far as
the I can see, and it's all on social media.
Nowhere for the illegal Somalis to hide any longer. Everybody's
a reporter, so much fun. You got to listen to
these video clips that are being posted online.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
They are just amazing, absolutely amazing.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
As the FBI is cracking down on the Somali refugees
faking childcare in Minneapolis, there's a whole list of cities
now where these journalists want the FEDS to go in
and crack down on these characters too.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's all coming up next. Lou Penrose info.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
John co Belt on The John Coblt Show on KFI
AM six forty Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Lou Penrose if of John Coblt on The John Coblt Show.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
This Somali fraud story is getting better and better and
better every day.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
It's now laughable and actually comical because the Somali people
are fighting back.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
They're mad, they think they're being targeted.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
They're pulling out the race card, they're pulling out the
religion card.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
They think we're going after them because of their race
or because of their religion.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
And other people are citing Nick Shirley as their inspiration
to basically go to the Somali part of town and
see what's going on at all the day care centers
and guess what, whether Seattle or Philadelphia or Columbus, Ohio,
(09:50):
it's exactly the same, just a bunch of empty buildings,
a bunch of weirdos signs.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Some weird lady answers the.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Door, looking like a teenage mutant Ninja Turtle.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
She doesn't want to answer any questions and winds up
slamming the door.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
So here, Nick Shirley went back because they actually closed
down the Quality Learning Center after be exposed that they
were registered for ninety nine children and they had taken
one point six million dollars in the last fiscal year.
And there's no children there, but CNN got there. Now,
CNN is mad, CNN is angry. CNN thinks that they're
(10:27):
being pushed out of the reporting business by people with
cell phone cameras and microphones, and they are right. Where
has CNN been? Where is ABC News? Where is NBC News?
Where is CBS? What they ought to do is give
all these YouTubers their own network, give them CBS's license.
I mean, they don't do any news, and we'll get
(10:51):
far more better, far better reporting, and far more stories
that are interesting.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
So this is let's see here, this is a CNN's
Now I lost it. I'll get it in a second. Anyway.
One of the.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
One of the reporters that this is a CNN's Whitney Wild, like,
what are their.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
B team? If you will?
Speaker 3 (11:15):
They sent her out to Minneapolis to a challenge Nick Shirley,
and here she is she's challenging him.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Now everybody in America, I mean everybody.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I think the video that he released has been viewed
over two hundred million times. So everybody has seen reality
with their own eyes. But CNN's now on the scene
and they want to know why he thinks he's right.
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Muslim using your material? Islamophobes use your material?
Speaker 5 (11:46):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
So here here is a that's him arguing with somebody
here here here comes to CNN reporter.
Speaker 7 (11:51):
How do you know that you're right?
Speaker 8 (11:53):
How do you know that all the allegations that you're
making are true?
Speaker 9 (11:55):
How do I know that they're true?
Speaker 5 (11:57):
Well, we showed you guys that We showed you guys
what was.
Speaker 9 (11:59):
Happening, and then you guys can go ahead and make
your own numb.
Speaker 7 (12:02):
We're coming so we can make our own analysis.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Are you one hundred percent sure you're true?
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (12:05):
I am a hundred percent sure I'm true.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
That was cold on what kind of questions of these?
Speaker 3 (12:09):
How do you know your right? How do we know
any reporter on CNN is right?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Often they are wrong?
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Right sixty minutes was wrong for the entire first Trump administration.
That's an interesting challenge. How do you know your right? Well, lady,
I mean, what more do you need to see?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
There's an empty building. Here is the State of Minnesota's.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Online real time live record of them being open during
these hours, being registered for ninety nine kids and receiving
millions of dollars. And by the way, there's eleven of
these fake Somali childcare centers in a row. Isn't that
curious to you? I mean, it is this unbelievable question.
(12:58):
How do you know you're right?
Speaker 7 (13:00):
How do you know that you're right?
Speaker 8 (13:01):
How do you know that all the allegations that you're
making are true?
Speaker 9 (13:04):
How do I know that they're true?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Well, we showed you guys that We showed you guys what.
Speaker 9 (13:08):
Was happening, and then you guys can go ahead and
make your own numb.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
We're coming so we can make our own analysis.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Are you one hundred percent sure you're true?
Speaker 10 (13:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (13:13):
I am hundred percent sure I'm true.
Speaker 8 (13:15):
That was conservative YouTuber Nick Shirley. His viral video where
he's going door to door at daycares in the Minneapolis
area and saying that he's uncovering massive amounts of fraud
at Somali run daycares has exploded on social media. Elon
Musk retweeted the video. Jd Vance retweeted the video.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
So it's interesting, it's an interesting narrative, right, CNN, there
is challenging and also concern that the video was retweeted
by high profile opinion shapers. I mean, that's really quite astounding.
It doesn't matter if Elon Musk likes it or not.
It doesn't matter if the vice president likes it or not.
(13:54):
What matters is that these childcare centers are receiving millions
of dollars and they're completely empty, and the people won't
open the door and they won't accept application for childcare.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Here's more of CNN's Whitney Wild really getting deep into
the journalism.
Speaker 8 (14:16):
CNN is looking into Shirley's claims.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Oh, that's, you know what, good news, good news. What
I need is confirmation. My eyes are not enough. I
need CNN to get involved and really confirm for what
everybody sees.
Speaker 8 (14:32):
CNN is looking into Shirley's claims. This idea of fraud
in Minnesota, though, is not new. In fact, for many,
many years, the Department of Justice has been prosecuting cases
against dozens of defendants, many of whom are concentrated in
the Somali American community here in the Minneapolis area.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Oh, I get it.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
So yeah, the defendants are all concentrated in the Somali
American community. By the way, we're not talking about Somalia Americans.
We're talking about illegals from Somalia that were given temporary
protection status under the Biden administration, who are pirates and
illegals and are behaving like pirates in the United States.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
I love that these aren't Somalis that are doing this.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
These are just people that are concentrated as if Irish
fraudsters all moved to Minneapolis and moved into the Somali
community and were committing fraud, and they just happened to
invent themselves among a bunch of Somalis. Why is it
that the fraud is going on in the second largest
(15:37):
Somali community in America Columbus, Ohio, and the third largest
Somali community Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, And the fourth largest Somali community Seattle, Washington.
What has happened in the last twenty four hours is lovely.
It really is people in every major city where a
(16:01):
bunch of illegals moved in and are behaving questionably. Gee,
you're an illegal and you're claiming you're a refugee and
you're waiting your asylum case, and we all know that
you're faking your asylum claim. But you got a good
president at the time, and he lets you stay here.
And until the ice band comes and packs you in
(16:22):
and ships you out.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
You're gonna remain.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
But I had no idea that the Somalis all were
into childcare, and so many and all in a row.
Usually competition dictates that you want to have a childcare
center that serves ninety nine children on one corner of
the town, and then another one a couple of you know,
miles away. Now they're right next door. So now the
(16:50):
Somali people in Minneapolis, they're mad at Nick Shirley. They
are They're pulling out the race card, they're pulling out
the religion card. They're saying, this is just an attack
on muslim people want.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Us out of here.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
Muslim used in your material, Islamo fobs, use your material.
People who hate Islam use your material. Say to us, well,
you don't want you here. You hate Muslims. I'm not
saying you know you hate Muslims.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Why are you taking us? Brother? This is the oldest
trick in the book.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I don't care what church, temples, synagogue, or mosque you
go to. If you are stealing. You're stealing, and you're
in the country illegally in the first place, which does
not make me trust you because the Loup Penrose rule
all illegals are liars. Now we cantured red handed stealing
(17:45):
in the millions.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
So I give you credit for going big.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Right, they say, go big, go home, But you went
big and now you're going home. So don't even try
with the whole. I don't care what religion you are.
I don't even know what religion you are. I don't
know what's going on with you.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Guys. Who cares? Who cares? Who cares?
Speaker 10 (18:05):
Well?
Speaker 1 (18:05):
You don't want you?
Speaker 11 (18:06):
Hear it?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
You hate Muslims.
Speaker 9 (18:08):
I'm not saying you. You know you hate Muslims.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Why are you taking us?
Speaker 6 (18:13):
Don't touch people? Anny. Somebody gets hurts in Minnesota, that
is because of Nick.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Charley, That's right. So now that's the threat. If any
Somali people get hurt, it's because of Nick Shirley.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Let me explain something to you people in the Somali community.
If you have a bad reputation in American society, it
is in fact your fault, not our fault. You need
to work on strengthening your reputation an.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I the one single sobody gets hers.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
It's because of your sensationalize your son.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Of a oh boy, pottymouth there uh Louke Penrose in
for John Cobelt on kf I A M six forty
Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from six forty.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
This Somali fraud story is expanding to Seattle and Philadelphia
and Ohio.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Lou a great segment.
Speaker 10 (19:13):
I absolutely love that this YouTuber has taken away the
ability of the big three liberal news medias who do
not tell us the news. They decide what news they
think we should have. I want to see more and
more of this of the show.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah, there is more and more of this. So here
is cam Higbee. You know who cam Higbee is. No,
I didn't know either, but now he's all over it.
He is the Nick Shirley of Seattle. He said, Hey,
I saw that video. I want to there's a thereus
Seattle that's got a lot of Somali people. What are
they doing? And he went to the website and guess
(19:52):
what the State of Washington is paying a bunch of
Seattle of Seattle based Somali fake pre care school people.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
And he went there with a cell phone camera.
Speaker 9 (20:03):
So as you can see, no one here is answering.
Speaker 12 (20:07):
It's just past ten am right now, looking to get
some information about childcare.
Speaker 9 (20:13):
Okay, So as you can see.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
I like this the door slam in the face, knock
on the door of the childcare setup.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
That's on the State of Washington website.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Also how much they've been paid in subsidies because it's
reduced cost childcare. That's see, that's the golden ticket the
illegals from Somalia. No, they can't get into the market
based childcare business because there's competition there.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Plus they're illegal, so.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
They they basically do they go to states where they
have liberal governors who want to have child reduce childcare,
childcare for all, right, which is another way of saying,
the rest of the taxpayers will subsidize to make the
cost lower for childcare or no cost childcare. And you
(21:05):
know when we find some people that open up shops
and that sign up for that program because they're going
to get less money, the state will reimburse them for
the difference.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
So that's what the Somali refugees got involved in.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
They all went into the low cost, no cost childcare
center and registered and got approved.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
And then when you go knock on the door, there's
no children.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
There's no school books, there's no no tickle Melmo, no nothing.
Speaker 9 (21:31):
Looking to get some information about childcare.
Speaker 12 (21:34):
Okay, So as you can see, I just asked about childcare.
Speaker 9 (21:39):
Is this childcare for children?
Speaker 12 (21:42):
It's that?
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (21:45):
I just want to make sure this is to wackle
House of Okay, just want to make sure.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
What's he know, aguess is marine childcare?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
You're at twenty nine eighteen. Yeah, that's cam Higbee. He's
doing in Seattle.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Want what Nick Shirley was doing in Minneapolis and the
Somali's in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
They don't like it.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Word must have gotten out that the jig is up,
so they're really slamming the door. They're getting up in
the face. They don't want people filming them. It's very
interesting when they get aggravated. They really don't like being
on film. They don't think that you have the right
to film them in public.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
I don't know. It's amazing. They're all constitutional scholars.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
They're wrong, but they cite their constitutional right to not
be filmed.
Speaker 12 (22:38):
How Come I can't receive child here here. Okay, thanks
coming required. I saw this location on the Department of Children,
Youth and Families. I just thowt you go in a
moment ago, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, these people have their location, which is a house,
and it's listed on the state website. You know, because
they're in the childcare provider business.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
And they you know, they knock on the.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Door, they won't to answer the door, but well they
what they will do is call the police.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
So they called the Seattle PD here it is.
Speaker 12 (23:18):
Looking for information about childcare please. So the person just
moved the blinds over there. There's absolutely someone here. This
business is open right now. According to the DCYP website.
Speaker 11 (23:30):
If you've seen the Nick Shirley story on YouTube about
Minnesota where they've got all those facilities over there, and
they're listed as you know, operating twenty four seven three
sixty five. So I came down here as a journalist
to see if that's in fact what's going on.
Speaker 12 (23:42):
This Seattle Housing Authority location is listed as having within a.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Three square block area.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yes, by the way, did you catch that the Seattle
Housing Authority?
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Do you know what that means? Right?
Speaker 3 (23:53):
So, not only are they having illegal childcare centers run
by illegals in the country illegally from Somalia, stealing millions
of dollars from the state of Washington with no children
but billing for children. They're doing it in housing authority houses.
Speaker 12 (24:12):
Location is listed as having within a three square block
area as having twenty facilities operating childcare at them, and
so far only one of them appears to.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Be legit twenty daycare centers within three square blocks, and
yet CNN's Whitney Wilde has the nerve to challenge, how
do you know you're right? How do you know this
is truth? How do you know these are facts? It's unbelievable. Well,
the cop says, look, these people are really upset.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
They're feeling harassed. You should leave.
Speaker 13 (24:46):
You can tell that the community is upset at large.
And so if we just walk away from this, then
obviously that's going to have you know, well documented after right.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
That's amazing to me. I'll up the cop.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
The cop is like, you know, look, these people are upset.
Filming them Uh, maybe you know, pack it up.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Why should we leave? This is our country. These people
are refugees.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
I don't care if refugees stealing in my country are upset,
Like do you care if these people are ruffled?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Who cares?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I love that, you know, you're really upsetting them and
they're not used to this, you know, being challenged. Investigators
come to see how many children are actually there because
they're you know, the states being built for ninety nine
children in a you know, four.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Thousand square foot house.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
But you know this, it's very very it's very upsetting
for them.
Speaker 13 (25:44):
You can tell that the community is upset at large.
And so if we just walk away from this, then
obviously that's going to have you know, well documented.
Speaker 11 (25:54):
Man.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Okay, so I hear the screaming woman in the back.
This is your childcare provider. So isn't that great? Doesn't
she sound like a wonderful childcare provider? These This is
the kind of woman that the state of Washington is
sending tax dollars to watch.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
The kids going.
Speaker 12 (26:13):
I'm going to d church here, Okay, I'm going there's licenses.
I'm going there to see if you guys have applications
for service.
Speaker 9 (26:23):
You haven't, do you haven't?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Right?
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yes, it's a business.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
I love that the Somali refugee is asking the American
do you ever write to come and see if I
have availability. What's with the rights lady? Where are you
getting this whole rights thing.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
All of a sudden? Uh, you know.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
They're all on the constitution. Well it's going So that's Seattle,
it's going on. There's other places in Washington, also in Philadelphia.
It's unbelievable and it's really getting fun to harass and
rastle these and just rile these.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
People up is the best part.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
And it's going to continue because everybody with a cell
phone camera is going to get one hundred million views
by exposing these people and good will come from it.
So I don't care if they get upset, if they
don't like it, they can pack and move.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
They're in the country illegally anyway.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
The Ice fans are on the way and committing fraud
while in the country illegally. Even under temporary protective status,
is still a one way ticket back to Somalia.
Speaker 1 (27:28):

Loup Penrose in for John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show.
New Year's Eve coming up following the news at three,
KFI will be airing a special La.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Fires one year later. It'll be coming up next week.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Kfi's Michael Monks will host it and we'll give us
a preview following the news at three o'clock.
Speaker 10 (28:04):
I just wanted to say, listening to that guy Lou
in for John Covant, and.
Speaker 12 (28:07):
He is the best.
Speaker 9 (28:09):
I love him.
Speaker 7 (28:11):
He's smart and he's funny.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
And I'm really enjoying it.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
Good job, lou good job here more of you, best
guest host ever.
Speaker 14 (28:20):
They're here illegal, they're lying, They're definitely doing it. Man,
come on, we really have to be this way. This
is ridiculous.
Speaker 10 (28:32):
If it walks like a duck, If it walks like
a duck, it's a duck.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
This has been going on everywhere.
Speaker 15 (28:39):
Have a great night.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I appreciate the call. What's going on in Philadelphia.
Speaker 15 (28:42):
Maternity Care Coalition is a nonprofit that got twenty three
million dollars from the government to run daycares like this.
So it is two pm. This place is supposed to
be open. It closes at around four thirty. We're gonna
try and buzz one more time to see if anybody
opens up.
Speaker 9 (28:59):
Hello.
Speaker 15 (28:59):
Okay, so they didn't answer, So we're going to call
the number on their website.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
Let's see if they answer.
Speaker 8 (29:06):
Thank you for calling the Parity Care Coalition for quotes
for the Independents Day holiday.
Speaker 15 (29:11):
It's a little bit cold for Independence Day.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
That's good. I love that one.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
So they haven't been operating at least since Independence Day,
which means the state of Pennsylvania has been subsidizing.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
For the sixty two children a day.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
And there's nobody there, nobody's answering, nobody's there. So these
childcare centers, boy, they were the golden goose for these Somalis.
They really knew how to work it. It's not just
in the major cities. Here is Federal Way, Washington. This
is a suburb south of Seattle for the illegal Somali
(29:52):
pirates that want to scam the system but don't want
to live in the inner city.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
They want to move out to the burbs.
Speaker 9 (29:57):
The daycare owner on going up. We're just trying to
check out the studio.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
I am lucky.
Speaker 9 (30:07):
Where are all the children?
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Do you have a daycare?
Speaker 9 (30:09):
Where are all the children?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
This is great? This is so amazing.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
We have actual Americans going out with their cell phone camera,
finally putting the cell phone camera to use for something good, right,
instead of playing subway surf and scrolling through TikTok, They're like, hey,
you know what this is. This isn't an iPhone. This
is a portable television studio. And it's pretty easy to
(30:34):
be a reporter. As it turns out, all you gotta
do is knock on the door of an illegal and
something's going on in there that's illegal.
Speaker 7 (30:40):
I don't have to I don't.
Speaker 9 (30:42):
Have to tell you what I.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
Did.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
You catch that? So he said, I'm just I'm just here.
You you are a daycare center.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
You're on the website, and you are an official daycare
center that's subsidized by the state of Washington. And I'm
just wondering if they're why they're no children here. And
the response was, I don't have to tell you if
I have or if I not have.
Speaker 9 (31:04):
Do you have a daycare? Where are all the children?
Speaker 7 (31:06):
I don't have to I don't have to tell you
what I have.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
I don't know. Okay, can you show me proof your daycare?
I'm not anything.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
She's not proofing anything. That's what we have.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
That's that is what mass illegal immigration brought us, a
bunch of third world pirates stealing from the system.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
But now they're fighting back. Now they're they're.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Very upset that Nick Shirley went back to the original
Quality Learning Center with the sign.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Well, they fixed the sign. I don't know if you
heard this.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
So CNN was out there and they asked the lady
and this isn't the owner.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
The owners I think.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Are in custody at this point, but they asked some
illegal alien from Somalia supporter why the sign is? Why
the sign was wrong for so long? And I think
this is a liberal white woman. She says, it's our fault.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
That's not the wrong where's where's the sign painting lady?
Speaker 7 (32:06):
But why was the word learning misspelled?
Speaker 9 (32:09):
That was a printing error?
Speaker 7 (32:12):
And how long was it that way?
Speaker 9 (32:14):
I don't know, just because it is a misprint.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Now, if you're in the childcare business and the name
of your company is Quality Learning Center and the sign
came back and they misspelled learning. But you're trying to
project to the general public, register your kid here while
you're at work.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
We'll give them the fundamentals to learn, like the alphabet.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Wouldn't it really put you off that the sign guy
misspelled learning?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Wouldn't you not put that on your at the facade
of your building? I mean, it's it seems to me.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
That if I ran a donut shot, uh, and it
didn't spell donuts Louke Penrose donut shot and it's a
Loup penrose non nut shot, I take the sign down.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Bad for business?
Speaker 7 (33:18):
But why was the word learning misspelled?
Speaker 9 (33:21):
That was a printing error?
Speaker 7 (33:24):
In how long was it that way?
Speaker 9 (33:26):
I don't know, just because it is a misprint. Everyone
is taking that out of content.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
It looks like it's fixed now though.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Did she say everyone is taking that out of context?
Speaker 9 (33:40):
Everyone is taking that out of content.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Out of content. Not heard that one before?
Speaker 9 (33:46):
Everyone is taking that out of content.
Speaker 7 (33:48):
It looks like it's fixed now though.
Speaker 14 (33:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:53):
And who are these people here?
Speaker 9 (33:55):
People? People American?
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Yeah, they're people. Who are these people?
Speaker 3 (34:02):
So the Somalis in the in the Somali area of
Minneapolis heard that the heat was on, so they got
the word out, got the phone trees together, sent out
the group text and said hey, if you have a child,
or you see a child, or you can kidnap a child,
grab that child, throw them in the back of your van,
and come right away to the Quality Learning Center. Now,
(34:22):
it might throw you off because it's a new sign.
There's there's now an R in the name. But don't
let that throw you off. It's the same owner, same location.
But we need your help because the cameras are here.
We need some children. So go find yourself some children
and get them over here quickly. Otherwise we can't continue
to steal from the government.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
And uh, that's uh, who are these people? Well, they're
just people.
Speaker 7 (34:49):
And who are these people with people.
Speaker 9 (34:53):
Of people? American?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
How does she know the American? I like that she
threw that in. That's called a qualifier.
Speaker 7 (35:03):
Looks like some daycare kids.
Speaker 9 (35:06):
Oh absolutely. I don't know why y'all thinking kids are
not comming Like y'all y'all, I'll hear like there's like
they're not my kids are not coming.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Yeah, no, I understand that kids are coming now, but
it's too late, too late. The ice bands are coming,
and you're going in the back of the van, and
when that door shuts, you're never coming back. It's been
a good ride. I hope you wired all that money
to small you all right? When we get back, we'll
talk to Michael Monks about the KFI special La Fires
(35:36):
one year later.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
That's all coming up next.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Lou Penrose on KFI AM six forty live everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
Hey, you've been listening to the John Covelt Show podcast.
You can always hear the show live on KFI AM
six forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Can't find AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
Lou Penrose sitting in for John Cobelt on New Year's Eve.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Good to be with you. Well, this one I did
not see coming.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Of all the political discussions and political arguments that we
are having, the Trump administration has banned foreign made drones
and their critical components. The ban is due to national
security concerns, according to the FCC.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
The FCC says that hostile actors.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
The makers of the drones, I guess could take advantage
of upcoming mass events like the World Cup the twenty
twenty eight Olympics in Los Angeles using the technology. But
law enforcement and fire departments also use these drones.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
And they don't know now where to go to get
new drones.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Joining us Alex Stone from ABC News here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Alex never saw this one coming. This is an interesting
little fight and I'm not even sure where to go
with it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Yeah, police departments seem kind of caught off guard by it,
and fire departments as well because they use these drones.
And DJI is one of the most popular drone companies
in the world and the one that a lot of
police departments, a lot of fire departments use, and now
they can't get what they need. So this went into
effect last week. This FCC rule, it bans foreign made
(01:21):
drones from being imported into the US. It includes any
parts coming in to maintain drones that are already in
the US.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
And then we're.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Told by the users of these drones that software and
firmware updates are also now blocked, so they can't update
them either. And the police and fire departments and that
there are many in the LA area that use these
drones that are being impacted. And Dji is a Chinese company.
Most other drone companies are Chinese or some other foreign
(01:52):
source of the drone, and so the Trump administration is
saying they could be a threat and that they are
banning these drones. This is now a very quick, real
problem for police and fire departments to rely on them.
Out in Palm Springs. They're telling us.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
This probably about eighty percent of law enforcement agencies are
using this type of technology, so it could impact public safety.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
And so the agencies are scrambling. They rely on these
for all kinds of calls and rescues, and they can't
even update them right now when they need to be updated.
The models that are already in the US, that have
already been imported, they can stay, and if they're at
stores or at companies to be sold to somebody, they
can remain as well, but new ones cannot come in.
(02:34):
DJI that one of the biggest companies, has been pushing
back against the Trump administration, claiming they don't send data
back to China, that they're not controlled out of China
the drones, that it's the operator on the ground video
from whatever the LAPD is doing, or the sheriff's department
or burbank police or yeah, any agency that's not going
(02:54):
back to China to be looked at. But police here
is saying now they're caught in the middle of this.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Our entire their own fleet is comprised of DJI technology, so.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Out in Palm Springs and most other police departments, they're
trying to figure out what they're going to do, how
they get replacement parts once they're needed, how they keep
their drones flying and drone pilots loo they're saying, to
be blunt with the whole thing, that US made drones
aren't good and they're crazy expensive and don't work well,
and so you can't just go, well, let me just
(03:24):
go buy a drone made in the US. So it
means they're trying to figure out how they don't ground
their drone programs over time as they need parts and
as they need new items and new technology comes in,
and they may smaller agencies may have to go back
to the bigger agencies like it used to be and
asked to use their helicopters again, putting it's a lot
more expensive for jet fuel and putting humans at risk
(03:48):
flying above, and a lot louder all of that.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
But out in Palm Springs are saying.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
If that we're forced into the scenario where we have
to buy US made drones, the cost is pretty exorbitant,
so I can't imagine that we be feasible for us
to replace the entire fleet.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So the police agencies and fire departments are calling on
the Trump administration to get this figured out. Did they
say that they this is not feasible to trash all
of the drones that they've got to end all of
that that they need their drones.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
DJI as a company has been trying to be forthcoming,
has been reaching out. I mean that's just what I've
been reading. But I just hope at some point it
gets resolved.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
But this is not only police and fire departments. This
is going to impact hobbyists, delivery companies that are coming
up with plans to deliver items via drone, Farmers that
map out and look at that their plots of land
deciding where they're going to do whatever they're going to
do on their land, mapping companies, filmmakers here in La,
(04:45):
TV companies, news production, and a lot of drone work
is now done. But this band specifically goes after anything
that uses communication or video equipment from a drone, which
is what many of the companies in southern California what
they're doing with drones and police departments and fire departments
to look for people, search and rescue. So, while it
impacts a lot of different entities, police and fire departments
(05:08):
are saying they use these every day now and with
this band that they're not able to update them, they're
not able to get new ones. That this is going
to be a big impact.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
So the FCC is saying the ban is due to
national security concerns, Well, there had to have been national security.
The same concerns had to be there yesterday, last.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Month, and last year.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
The good thing about this administration is it makes decisions
and it acts.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
The bad thing.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
About this administration is it makes decisions and acts. I mean,
they just it sometimes seems like there isn't time to
phase in or get feedback in through the feedback channels
as to the because everything has consequences, right, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
And the allegation is that these companies, and there are
numerous companies, Dji being just the biggest of them, that
they have been sending data back to China from the
police departments could be doing, or search and rescue could.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Be doing what he's looking at him posts.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
That's my question. I mean, what are they going to see,
you know, the Angelus National Forest flying over it and
looking for somebody I don't know. But kind of more
of what they're talking about now is that China could
see stuff that's being planned security for the Olympics, if
we're closer to the Olympics and they're flying over it,
or for the World Cup or for the America two
(06:22):
fifty celebration, that they would be able to see in
real time where police are and maybe get live feeds
back and whatnot. But these companies are saying no, that
this stuff, that they're not getting flight plans, that they're
not getting live video back in China, that it's barely
feeding back to the controller down on the ground or
to the command post down on the ground, let alone
thousands of miles away. So the US government has got
(06:44):
to figure this out. If enough law enforcement and probably
federal agencies as well, that this is going to impact,
no doubt, the FBI and Homeland Security in others, if
they can't use drones, that there may be a large
enough drum beat in Washington to say, hey, you can't
take these. And I wouldn't be surprised if they begin
working again and law enforcement can begin getting them, but
(07:05):
as of right now, they can't get them.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Alex Stone, ABC News, thank you so much. I appreciate
a happy New Year to you. We'll see this story
gets settled out.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
In the new year. Oh my god, thank you. That's
this one that I never saw coming.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
Yeah, when you consider the list that Alex has laid
out of the industries that use zone zoned drones and
zoom in on technology. Also the real estate industry constantly
using those drones, unbelievable, all right, When we come back.
So this Somali fraudster Minneapolis child daycare center controversy has
(07:41):
blown up and now everybody with a cell phone camera
wants to be Nick Shirley.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Which is great.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
This is really great because now without the resources of ABC,
NBCCBS and Fox, individuals are literally doing shoe leather reporting
and uncovering fraud all over the United States.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Now, Seattle, in Philadelphia. Guess what.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
You go into the Somali communities of these cities and
guess what's going on. Fraudulent daycare centers as far as
the I can see, and it's all on social media.
Nowhere for the illegal Somalis to hide any longer. Everybody's
a reporter, so much fun. You got to listen to
these video clips that are being posted online.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
They are just amazing, absolutely amazing.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
As the FBI is cracking down on the Somali refugees
faking childcare in Minneapolis, there's a whole list of cities
now where these journalists want the FEDS to go in
and crack down on these characters too.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's all coming up next. Lou Penrose info.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
John co Belt on The John Coblt Show on KFI
AM six forty Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Lou Penrose if of John Coblt on The John Coblt Show.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
This Somali fraud story is getting better and better and
better every day.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
It's now laughable and actually comical because the Somali people
are fighting back.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
They're mad, they think they're being targeted.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
They're pulling out the race card, they're pulling out the
religion card.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
They think we're going after them because of their race
or because of their religion.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
And other people are citing Nick Shirley as their inspiration
to basically go to the Somali part of town and
see what's going on at all the day care centers
and guess what, whether Seattle or Philadelphia or Columbus, Ohio,
(09:50):
it's exactly the same, just a bunch of empty buildings,
a bunch of weirdos signs.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Some weird lady answers the.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Door, looking like a teenage mutant Ninja Turtle.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
She doesn't want to answer any questions and winds up
slamming the door.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
So here, Nick Shirley went back because they actually closed
down the Quality Learning Center after be exposed that they
were registered for ninety nine children and they had taken
one point six million dollars in the last fiscal year.
And there's no children there, but CNN got there. Now,
CNN is mad, CNN is angry. CNN thinks that they're
(10:27):
being pushed out of the reporting business by people with
cell phone cameras and microphones, and they are right. Where
has CNN been? Where is ABC News? Where is NBC News?
Where is CBS? What they ought to do is give
all these YouTubers their own network, give them CBS's license.
I mean, they don't do any news, and we'll get
(10:51):
far more better, far better reporting, and far more stories
that are interesting.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
So this is let's see here, this is a CNN's
Now I lost it. I'll get it in a second. Anyway.
One of the.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
One of the reporters that this is a CNN's Whitney Wild, like,
what are their.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
B team? If you will?
Speaker 3 (11:15):
They sent her out to Minneapolis to a challenge Nick Shirley,
and here she is she's challenging him.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Now everybody in America, I mean everybody.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
I think the video that he released has been viewed
over two hundred million times. So everybody has seen reality
with their own eyes. But CNN's now on the scene
and they want to know why he thinks he's right.
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Muslim using your material? Islamophobes use your material?
Speaker 5 (11:46):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
So here here is a that's him arguing with somebody
here here here comes to CNN reporter.
Speaker 7 (11:51):
How do you know that you're right?
Speaker 8 (11:53):
How do you know that all the allegations that you're
making are true?
Speaker 9 (11:55):
How do I know that they're true?
Speaker 5 (11:57):
Well, we showed you guys that We showed you guys
what was.
Speaker 9 (11:59):
Happening, and then you guys can go ahead and make
your own numb.
Speaker 7 (12:02):
We're coming so we can make our own analysis.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Are you one hundred percent sure you're true?
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (12:05):
I am a hundred percent sure I'm true.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
That was cold on what kind of questions of these?
Speaker 3 (12:09):
How do you know your right? How do we know
any reporter on CNN is right?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Often they are wrong?
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Right sixty minutes was wrong for the entire first Trump administration.
That's an interesting challenge. How do you know your right? Well, lady,
I mean, what more do you need to see?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
There's an empty building. Here is the State of Minnesota's.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Online real time live record of them being open during
these hours, being registered for ninety nine kids and receiving
millions of dollars. And by the way, there's eleven of
these fake Somali childcare centers in a row. Isn't that
curious to you? I mean, it is this unbelievable question.
(12:58):
How do you know you're right?
Speaker 7 (13:00):
How do you know that you're right?
Speaker 8 (13:01):
How do you know that all the allegations that you're
making are true?
Speaker 9 (13:04):
How do I know that they're true?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Well, we showed you guys that We showed you guys what.
Speaker 9 (13:08):
Was happening, and then you guys can go ahead and
make your own numb.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
We're coming so we can make our own analysis.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Are you one hundred percent sure you're true?
Speaker 10 (13:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (13:13):
I am hundred percent sure I'm true.
Speaker 8 (13:15):
That was conservative YouTuber Nick Shirley. His viral video where
he's going door to door at daycares in the Minneapolis
area and saying that he's uncovering massive amounts of fraud
at Somali run daycares has exploded on social media. Elon
Musk retweeted the video. Jd Vance retweeted the video.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
So it's interesting, it's an interesting narrative, right, CNN, there
is challenging and also concern that the video was retweeted
by high profile opinion shapers. I mean, that's really quite astounding.
It doesn't matter if Elon Musk likes it or not.
It doesn't matter if the vice president likes it or not.
(13:54):
What matters is that these childcare centers are receiving millions
of dollars and they're completely empty, and the people won't
open the door and they won't accept application for childcare.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Here's more of CNN's Whitney Wild really getting deep into
the journalism.
Speaker 8 (14:16):
CNN is looking into Shirley's claims.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Oh, that's, you know what, good news, good news. What
I need is confirmation. My eyes are not enough. I
need CNN to get involved and really confirm for what
everybody sees.
Speaker 8 (14:32):
CNN is looking into Shirley's claims. This idea of fraud
in Minnesota, though, is not new. In fact, for many,
many years, the Department of Justice has been prosecuting cases
against dozens of defendants, many of whom are concentrated in
the Somali American community here in the Minneapolis area.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
Oh, I get it.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
So yeah, the defendants are all concentrated in the Somali
American community. By the way, we're not talking about Somalia Americans.
We're talking about illegals from Somalia that were given temporary
protection status under the Biden administration, who are pirates and
illegals and are behaving like pirates in the United States.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
I love that these aren't Somalis that are doing this.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
These are just people that are concentrated as if Irish
fraudsters all moved to Minneapolis and moved into the Somali
community and were committing fraud, and they just happened to
invent themselves among a bunch of Somalis. Why is it
that the fraud is going on in the second largest
(15:37):
Somali community in America Columbus, Ohio, and the third largest
Somali community Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, And the fourth largest Somali community Seattle, Washington.
What has happened in the last twenty four hours is lovely.
It really is people in every major city where a
(16:01):
bunch of illegals moved in and are behaving questionably. Gee,
you're an illegal and you're claiming you're a refugee and
you're waiting your asylum case, and we all know that
you're faking your asylum claim. But you got a good
president at the time, and he lets you stay here.
And until the ice band comes and packs you in
(16:22):
and ships you out.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
You're gonna remain.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
But I had no idea that the Somalis all were
into childcare, and so many and all in a row.
Usually competition dictates that you want to have a childcare
center that serves ninety nine children on one corner of
the town, and then another one a couple of you know,
miles away. Now they're right next door. So now the
(16:50):
Somali people in Minneapolis, they're mad at Nick Shirley. They
are They're pulling out the race card, they're pulling out
the religion card. They're saying, this is just an attack
on muslim people want.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Us out of here.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
Muslim used in your material, Islamo fobs, use your material.
People who hate Islam use your material. Say to us, well,
you don't want you here. You hate Muslims. I'm not
saying you know you hate Muslims.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Why are you taking us? Brother? This is the oldest
trick in the book.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I don't care what church, temples, synagogue, or mosque you
go to. If you are stealing. You're stealing, and you're
in the country illegally in the first place, which does
not make me trust you because the Loup Penrose rule
all illegals are liars. Now we cantured red handed stealing
(17:45):
in the millions.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
So I give you credit for going big.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Right, they say, go big, go home, But you went
big and now you're going home. So don't even try
with the whole. I don't care what religion you are.
I don't even know what religion you are. I don't
know what's going on with you.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Guys. Who cares? Who cares? Who cares?
Speaker 10 (18:05):
Well?
Speaker 1 (18:05):
You don't want you?
Speaker 11 (18:06):
Hear it?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
You hate Muslims.
Speaker 9 (18:08):
I'm not saying you. You know you hate Muslims.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Why are you taking us?
Speaker 6 (18:13):
Don't touch people? Anny. Somebody gets hurts in Minnesota, that
is because of Nick.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Charley, That's right. So now that's the threat. If any
Somali people get hurt, it's because of Nick Shirley.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Let me explain something to you people in the Somali community.
If you have a bad reputation in American society, it
is in fact your fault, not our fault. You need
to work on strengthening your reputation an.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I the one single sobody gets hers.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
It's because of your sensationalize your son.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Of a oh boy, pottymouth there uh Louke Penrose in
for John Cobelt on kf I A M six forty
Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
You're listening to John Cobbel's on demand from six forty.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
This Somali fraud story is expanding to Seattle and Philadelphia
and Ohio.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Lou a great segment.
Speaker 10 (19:13):
I absolutely love that this YouTuber has taken away the
ability of the big three liberal news medias who do
not tell us the news. They decide what news they
think we should have. I want to see more and
more of this of the show.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Yeah, there is more and more of this. So here
is cam Higbee. You know who cam Higbee is. No,
I didn't know either, but now he's all over it.
He is the Nick Shirley of Seattle. He said, Hey,
I saw that video. I want to there's a thereus
Seattle that's got a lot of Somali people. What are
they doing? And he went to the website and guess
(19:52):
what the State of Washington is paying a bunch of
Seattle of Seattle based Somali fake pre care school people.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
And he went there with a cell phone camera.
Speaker 9 (20:03):
So as you can see, no one here is answering.
Speaker 12 (20:07):
It's just past ten am right now, looking to get
some information about childcare.
Speaker 9 (20:13):
Okay, So as you can see.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
I like this the door slam in the face, knock
on the door of the childcare setup.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
That's on the State of Washington website.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Also how much they've been paid in subsidies because it's
reduced cost childcare. That's see, that's the golden ticket the
illegals from Somalia. No, they can't get into the market
based childcare business because there's competition there.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Plus they're illegal, so.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
They they basically do they go to states where they
have liberal governors who want to have child reduce childcare,
childcare for all, right, which is another way of saying,
the rest of the taxpayers will subsidize to make the
cost lower for childcare or no cost childcare. And you
(21:05):
know when we find some people that open up shops
and that sign up for that program because they're going
to get less money, the state will reimburse them for
the difference.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
So that's what the Somali refugees got involved in.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
They all went into the low cost, no cost childcare
center and registered and got approved.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
And then when you go knock on the door, there's
no children.
Speaker 3 (21:26):
There's no school books, there's no no tickle Melmo, no nothing.
Speaker 9 (21:31):
Looking to get some information about childcare.
Speaker 12 (21:34):
Okay, So as you can see, I just asked about childcare.
Speaker 9 (21:39):
Is this childcare for children?
Speaker 12 (21:42):
It's that?
Speaker 1 (21:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (21:45):
I just want to make sure this is to wackle
House of Okay, just want to make sure.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
What's he know, aguess is marine childcare?
Speaker 1 (21:52):
You're at twenty nine eighteen. Yeah, that's cam Higbee. He's
doing in Seattle.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
Want what Nick Shirley was doing in Minneapolis and the
Somali's in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
They don't like it.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Word must have gotten out that the jig is up,
so they're really slamming the door. They're getting up in
the face. They don't want people filming them. It's very
interesting when they get aggravated. They really don't like being
on film. They don't think that you have the right
to film them in public.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
I don't know. It's amazing. They're all constitutional scholars.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
They're wrong, but they cite their constitutional right to not
be filmed.
Speaker 12 (22:38):
How Come I can't receive child here here. Okay, thanks
coming required. I saw this location on the Department of Children,
Youth and Families. I just thowt you go in a
moment ago, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, these people have their location, which is a house,
and it's listed on the state website. You know, because
they're in the childcare provider business.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
And they you know, they knock on the.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
Door, they won't to answer the door, but well they
what they will do is call the police.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
So they called the Seattle PD here it is.
Speaker 12 (23:18):
Looking for information about childcare please. So the person just
moved the blinds over there. There's absolutely someone here. This
business is open right now. According to the DCYP website.
Speaker 11 (23:30):
If you've seen the Nick Shirley story on YouTube about
Minnesota where they've got all those facilities over there, and
they're listed as you know, operating twenty four seven three
sixty five. So I came down here as a journalist
to see if that's in fact what's going on.
Speaker 12 (23:42):
This Seattle Housing Authority location is listed as having within a.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Three square block area.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Yes, by the way, did you catch that the Seattle
Housing Authority?
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Do you know what that means? Right?
Speaker 3 (23:53):
So, not only are they having illegal childcare centers run
by illegals in the country illegally from Somalia, stealing millions
of dollars from the state of Washington with no children
but billing for children. They're doing it in housing authority houses.
Speaker 12 (24:12):
Location is listed as having within a three square block
area as having twenty facilities operating childcare at them, and
so far only one of them appears to.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Be legit twenty daycare centers within three square blocks, and
yet CNN's Whitney Wilde has the nerve to challenge, how
do you know you're right? How do you know this
is truth? How do you know these are facts? It's unbelievable. Well,
the cop says, look, these people are really upset.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
They're feeling harassed. You should leave.
Speaker 13 (24:46):
You can tell that the community is upset at large.
And so if we just walk away from this, then
obviously that's going to have you know, well documented after right.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
That's amazing to me. I'll up the cop.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
The cop is like, you know, look, these people are upset.
Filming them Uh, maybe you know, pack it up.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Why should we leave? This is our country. These people
are refugees.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
I don't care if refugees stealing in my country are upset,
Like do you care if these people are ruffled?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Who cares?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I love that, you know, you're really upsetting them and
they're not used to this, you know, being challenged. Investigators
come to see how many children are actually there because
they're you know, the states being built for ninety nine
children in a you know, four.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Thousand square foot house.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
But you know this, it's very very it's very upsetting
for them.
Speaker 13 (25:44):
You can tell that the community is upset at large.
And so if we just walk away from this, then
obviously that's going to have you know, well documented.
Speaker 11 (25:54):
Man.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Okay, so I hear the screaming woman in the back.
This is your childcare provider. So isn't that great? Doesn't
she sound like a wonderful childcare provider? These This is
the kind of woman that the state of Washington is
sending tax dollars to watch.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
The kids going.
Speaker 12 (26:13):
I'm going to d church here, Okay, I'm going there's licenses.
I'm going there to see if you guys have applications
for service.
Speaker 9 (26:23):
You haven't, do you haven't?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Right?
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yes, it's a business.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
I love that the Somali refugee is asking the American
do you ever write to come and see if I
have availability. What's with the rights lady? Where are you
getting this whole rights thing.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
All of a sudden? Uh, you know.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
They're all on the constitution. Well it's going So that's Seattle,
it's going on. There's other places in Washington, also in Philadelphia.
It's unbelievable and it's really getting fun to harass and
rastle these and just rile these.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
People up is the best part.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
And it's going to continue because everybody with a cell
phone camera is going to get one hundred million views
by exposing these people and good will come from it.
So I don't care if they get upset, if they
don't like it, they can pack and move.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
They're in the country illegally anyway.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
The Ice fans are on the way and committing fraud
while in the country illegally. Even under temporary protective status,
is still a one way ticket back to Somalia.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Lou Penrose in.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
Good job, lou good job here more of you, best
guest host ever.
Speaker 14 (28:20):
They're here illegal, they're lying, They're definitely doing it. Man,
come on, we really have to be this way. This
is ridiculous.
Speaker 10 (28:32):
If it walks like a duck, If it walks like
a duck, it's a duck.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
This has been going on everywhere.
Speaker 15 (28:39):
Have a great night.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I appreciate the call. What's going on in Philadelphia.
Speaker 15 (28:42):
Maternity Care Coalition is a nonprofit that got twenty three
million dollars from the government to run daycares like this.
So it is two pm. This place is supposed to
be open. It closes at around four thirty. We're gonna
try and buzz one more time to see if anybody
opens up.
Speaker 9 (28:59):
Hello.
Speaker 15 (28:59):
Okay, so they didn't answer, So we're going to call
the number on their website.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
Let's see if they answer.
Speaker 8 (29:06):
Thank you for calling the Parity Care Coalition for quotes
for the Independents Day holiday.
Speaker 15 (29:11):
It's a little bit cold for Independence Day.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
That's good. I love that one.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
So they haven't been operating at least since Independence Day,
which means the state of Pennsylvania has been subsidizing.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
For the sixty two children a day.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
And there's nobody there, nobody's answering, nobody's there. So these
childcare centers, boy, they were the golden goose for these Somalis.
They really knew how to work it. It's not just
in the major cities. Here is Federal Way, Washington. This
is a suburb south of Seattle for the illegal Somali
(29:52):
pirates that want to scam the system but don't want
to live in the inner city.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
They want to move out to the burbs.
Speaker 9 (29:57):
The daycare owner on going up. We're just trying to
check out the studio.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
I am lucky.
Speaker 9 (30:07):
Where are all the children?
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Do you have a daycare?
Speaker 9 (30:09):
Where are all the children?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
This is great? This is so amazing.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
We have actual Americans going out with their cell phone camera,
finally putting the cell phone camera to use for something good, right,
instead of playing subway surf and scrolling through TikTok, They're like, hey,
you know what this is. This isn't an iPhone. This
is a portable television studio. And it's pretty easy to
(30:34):
be a reporter. As it turns out, all you gotta
do is knock on the door of an illegal and
something's going on in there that's illegal.
Speaker 7 (30:40):
I don't have to I don't.
Speaker 9 (30:42):
Have to tell you what I.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
Did.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
You catch that? So he said, I'm just I'm just here.
You you are a daycare center.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
You're on the website, and you are an official daycare
center that's subsidized by the state of Washington. And I'm
just wondering if they're why they're no children here. And
the response was, I don't have to tell you if
I have or if I not have.
Speaker 9 (31:04):
Do you have a daycare? Where are all the children?
Speaker 7 (31:06):
I don't have to I don't have to tell you
what I have.
Speaker 9 (31:09):
I don't know. Okay, can you show me proof your daycare?
I'm not anything.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
She's not proofing anything. That's what we have.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
That's that is what mass illegal immigration brought us, a
bunch of third world pirates stealing from the system.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
But now they're fighting back. Now they're they're.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
Very upset that Nick Shirley went back to the original
Quality Learning Center with the sign.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Well, they fixed the sign. I don't know if you
heard this.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
So CNN was out there and they asked the lady
and this isn't the owner.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
The owners I think.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Are in custody at this point, but they asked some
illegal alien from Somalia supporter why the sign is? Why
the sign was wrong for so long? And I think
this is a liberal white woman. She says, it's our fault.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
That's not the wrong where's where's the sign painting lady?
Speaker 7 (32:06):
But why was the word learning misspelled?
Speaker 9 (32:09):
That was a printing error?
Speaker 7 (32:12):
And how long was it that way?
Speaker 9 (32:14):
I don't know, just because it is a misprint.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Now, if you're in the childcare business and the name
of your company is Quality Learning Center and the sign
came back and they misspelled learning. But you're trying to
project to the general public, register your kid here while
you're at work.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
We'll give them the fundamentals to learn, like the alphabet.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Wouldn't it really put you off that the sign guy
misspelled learning?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Wouldn't you not put that on your at the facade
of your building? I mean, it's it seems to me.
Speaker 3 (33:02):
That if I ran a donut shot, uh, and it
didn't spell donuts Louke Penrose donut shot and it's a
Loup penrose non nut shot, I take the sign down.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Bad for business?
Speaker 7 (33:18):
But why was the word learning misspelled?
Speaker 9 (33:21):
That was a printing error?
Speaker 7 (33:24):
In how long was it that way?
Speaker 9 (33:26):
I don't know, just because it is a misprint. Everyone
is taking that out of content.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
It looks like it's fixed now though.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Did she say everyone is taking that out of context?
Speaker 9 (33:40):
Everyone is taking that out of content.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Out of content. Not heard that one before?
Speaker 9 (33:46):
Everyone is taking that out of content.
Speaker 7 (33:48):
It looks like it's fixed now though.
Speaker 14 (33:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (33:53):
And who are these people here?
Speaker 9 (33:55):
People? People American?
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Yeah, they're people. Who are these people?
Speaker 3 (34:02):
So the Somalis in the in the Somali area of
Minneapolis heard that the heat was on, so they got
the word out, got the phone trees together, sent out
the group text and said hey, if you have a child,
or you see a child, or you can kidnap a child,
grab that child, throw them in the back of your van,
and come right away to the Quality Learning Center. Now,
(34:22):
it might throw you off because it's a new sign.
There's there's now an R in the name. But don't
