Feeding Our Fraud: Inside the Walz Campaign
26th September 2025
Yesterday Acting United States Attorney for Minnesota unveiled the first charge in what is expected to be a case involving a billion-dollar Medicaid fraud in Minnesota’s EIDBI benefit program. The defendant — Asha Farhan Hassan — is also the defendant number 76 in the massive Feeding Our Future fraud case. She will plead guilty some time soon.
For some reason or other, Ms. Farhan is not described as a “Minneapolis woman” in the local media coverage of this monumental scandal. KARE 11’s Lou Raguse does not even mention the involvement of the Twin Cities Somali community in the ripoff. His story is “Feds charge first Autism Center fraud case stemming from Feeding our Future investigation.” (“Asha Hassan, owner of Smart Therapy Center, is accused of stealing $14 million in taxpayer money by bribing parents to enroll their kids for phony autism services.) I have posted the video below.
The Feeding Our Future fraud scandal, the Housing Stabilization Services fraud scandal, and the EIDBI autism benefit scandal have all taken place under the nose of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Walz too is conspicuous by his absence in the media coverage of these scandals.
