Is anybody as shocked as I am by this obvious bias from the 'media'?
You know, after a while, you might to start to think the Free Press isn't so free afterall.
But, they mean well, I guess....... Right?
Just endless cover-ups of enormous crime by the Insurgency Media.
Vice President JD Vance is giving public credit to a YouTube journalist for doing what he says legacy media and elite institutions have failed to do: follow the money in Minnesota. In a post on X, Vance praised independent reporter Nick Shirley for digging into alleged fraud networks tied to the state, saying Shirley "has done far more useful journalism than any of the winners of the 2024 Pulitzer prizes." The comment was a direct response to a video Shirley shared online documenting what he described as widespread fraud, with Shirley claiming his team identified more than $110 million in suspicious activity in a single day while confronting facilities allegedly receiving millions in public funds.
Shirley's reporting has been circulating widely among conservatives, with commentators amplifying clips of him visiting supposed daycare and education centers that appeared inactive despite receiving massive federal aid. Conservative media personality Benny Johnson said Shirley had exposed more than $100 million in Minnesota Somali-linked fraud routed through fake daycare and healthcare fronts, adding to the pressure on state leadership. The issue gained further traction after Tom Emmer, Minnesota's top House Republican, demanded answers from Gov. Tim Walz following a viral clip showing Shirley confronting workers at an alleged daycare in South Minneapolis. Shirley reported the center, called the "Quality Learning Center," showed no visible activity despite claims it served up to 99 children, and even misspelled "learning" on its signage. As Shirley approached, a woman inside was heard shouting "Don't open up," while incorrectly accusing him of being an ICE agent.
