AG Pam Bondi raced to twitter last night to take credit for the Minneapolis Somali bust. There's one problem, she had nothing to do with it. It was all thanks to a 23-year old citizen journalist named Nick Shirley who did an hour long expose. It turns out now, it's more than just Minneapolis that has the Somali fraud -- yet another citizen journalist uncovered more fraud in a whole new city. And on the foreign policy side, Ukraine's Zelensky is reportedly pressuring Trump to send troops to Ukraine.
