From 2022? So basically the ones in Charge are incompetent and should be replaced or they knew about it and barely did anything to gain votes; is their an another possible reason?

Nick only got huge because the first reaction was to hate on him instead of doing something about the issue.

I don't know what you think you think you know about the Minnesota daycare fraud, but it's largely not some coordinated thing. It's a lot of random people defrauding a few different programs such as Medicaid, Minnesota's CCAP (Child Care Assistance Program).

It's not like a singular crime organization embezzling the government.

Medicaid program for disabled adults was 'vulnerable to fraud,' federal prosecutors say

Nick Shirley got huge by spreading misinformation. Daycares aren't in the habit of letting some random guy walk in and get pictures of kids.

What did state investigators find when they investigated the day cares in the videos?

State investigators conducted unannounced visits at the day cares in the viral video over the past six months as part of the typical licensing and auditing process, according to Tikki Brown, the commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Children, Youth and Families. An analysis of publicly available inspection records by The 19th found that most of the centers had unannounced inspections as recently as October, November or December.

After the video was posted, investigators from the state Office of Inspector General conducted compliance visits to nine of the 10 centers in the video (one of the centers in the video has been closed for several years and has not received funds in that time). They found normal operations and children at all but one, which had not yet opened for the day. Further investigations are being conducted into four of the nine facilities, but the state has not said what exactly it’s investigating.

Most of the centers in the video did have numerous state licensing violations against them regarding cleanliness, staff supervision and some recordkeeping around immunizations and allergies. But none of the violations against the centers were regarding fraud, according to state enforcement records.
