One more of ~50 so far Somalis plead guilty in the Feeding Our Future scandal for defrauding hundreds of millions of Covid bucks. But I thought I recognized the name and sure enough I did
https://www.startribune.com/another-defendant-pleads-guilty-in-massive-feeding-our-future-fraud-case-more-than-50-convicted/601453714Guhaad Hashi, who the Strib neither identifies properly nor allows comments so others could point it out, is one of
Ilhan Omars real family members. Not the fake Omar family, hes related to the Nur Said Elmis and joined Ilhan Omar's campaign as hired muscle years ago. This is the same deranged maniac who was hired to go door to door to intimidate local Somalis and threaten them on behalf of Ilhan Omar when someone spoke to local press about her marriage fraud. He had just been released after stabbing three people and them started telling people they needed to find the whistleblower and deal with him.

A Community Forced Into Silence

Members of the Somali Community are afraid to speak publicly about their disapproval of a candidate’s involvement in apparent fraudulent marriages.
MINNEAPOLIS, MN — For several weeks, Alpha News has been covering the latest developments of scandal and controversy that have rocked the campaign of DFL primary winner Ilhan Omar.
The controversy of Omar’s alleged illegal behaviors came to light following an article posted by Scott Johnson of Powerline. Details from the post alleged that Omar was not married to the man she claimed and had married her biological brother in order to bring him to the United States from the United Kingdom.
Through interviews and information gathered through investigating social media accounts, Alpha News has enough evidence to reasonably suggest that the man identified as Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, who Omar legally married in 2009, is in fact Ilhan Omar’s brother.
The latest developments in the controversy have brought troubling new details out of the Cedar-Riverside area.
A credible source from inside the Somali Community has stepped forward and provided Alpha News with information in exchange for anonymity. For the purposes of the article, we will refer to the source as Z.
Z tells Alpha News members of the Somali Community are being silenced through intimidation tactics and threats of physical violence on themselves and their families still back home in Somalia.
Z specifically mentions a man named Gulaad Hashi and identifies him as “campaign muscle”. Z tells Alpha News, “He serves as [Omar’s] muscle in the Somali community and has been leading a witch hunt to out ‘the snitch’ in the community. He has used everything from intimidation to threats to silence community members from speaking out about this, which is why no Somali has publicly come forward to state what we all know to be true.”
Alpha News obtained a screenshot of a Facebook post by Hashi with a picture of the SomaliSpot website. A member of the Somali Community has stepped forward and has translated the information for Alpha News.
ccording to the translation, the Facebook post states: “Somalis say those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. Who knows who owns this website Somali Spot? Who knows who posts on it? Soon I will expose all and, I promise, if you don’t stop what you’re doing we won’t stop until you have nowhere to hide.”
Alpha News has also obtained a Facebook Live Video posted by Hashi on August 18th, 2016. At 3:35, a woman Alpha News has identified as Farhio Khalif Jordan, the Associate Chair of the Somali-American Caucus speaks on the video. According to the translation, she states in plain terms that any Somali who opposes Ilhan Omar or talks about her personal life, including her marriage discrepancies, is turning on the Somali community and is an enemy of it.
At 5:00, Z identifies the man speaking as a male member of Ilhan Omar’s Somali campaign. According to the translation received, the man discusses purging the malicious individuals from the community and disposing of them when speaking about Omar’s marriage.
He received $2.1 million in fraudulent covid kickbacks stolen from a fund for giving free lunches to needy children. He got this money for acting as Ilhan Omar's hired thug, and actual family relative
