Somalis Now the Least Desirable Immigrant Group

Yes, that’s what billion-dollar fraud schemes in Minneapolis, and ten-million-dollar fraud schemes in Lewiston, Maine, will do to how Americans view Somalis: not well at all. The latest opinion poll by J.L. Partners rank Somalis as viewed far more unfavorably compared to other immigrant groups. And that poll was taken as even more Somali fraud scandals are being unearthed almost every week. In Minneapolis, there is still much investigation to be done, and some officials think that what they initially thought was a one-billion dollar fraud may balloon into a ten-billion dollar fraud.

Already, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who in the past has been a great promoter of the Somalis, for their presence provides his too-white state with such marvelous diversity — what could be better than diversity, the universal summum bonum? — has been forced to declare he will not, thank heaven, be running for governor again. More on how the Somalis are now viewed, and speculation as to what will happen when the full scope of the fraud in Minnesota scandal becomes clear and Maine’s similar, but smaller scandal involving Somali fraudsters explodes, can be found here: “Somalis plunge to bottom of America’s favorability rankings after fraud scandal as poll reveals immigrant group voters like most,” by Nikki Schwab, Daily Mail, January 12, 2026:

Minnesota‘s Somali community has been under scrutiny over the fraud scandal that has enveloped state leaders.

The outcry had already prompted Minnesota’s Democratic Governor Tim Walz to drop his reelection bid, which he did last week, before an ICE officer shot an unarmed woman, further propelling Minnesota into the news.

Daily Mail polling conducted January 5 and 6 – also before the fatal ICE shooting – found that the Minnesota fraud scandal was taking a toll on how American voters viewed Somali immigrants.

Somalians were viewed least favorably compared to other immigrant groups in the J.L. Partners poll.

In fact, they were the only group that polled in negative territory.

Thirty percent of registered voters said Somali immigrants made a bad impact on the United States.

That’s higher than the 24 percent who said they made a good impact and the 29 percent who viewed the community neutrally.

For years, President Donald Trump has slammed Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar, the highest-profile member of the community, mocking her at a rally-like event in Pennsylvania in December for wearing a ‘little turban.’…

Note that this opinion poll, in which Somalis are rated as the “least favorable” immigrant group by far, with thirty percent of Americans viewing them as having a negative effect on America, took place while the Somali fraudsters are still being investigated in both Minneapolis and Lewiston. So far, fraud amounting to one billion dollars, money that did not go to the intended recipients — the poor and the disabled in Minneapolis —has been uncovered, and more than 80 people convicted, all but a handful of them Somalis, but it is believed that once the investigation is complete, the fraud, or rather frauds, may have totaled ten billion dollars. And after that information has been taken in by Americans from sea to shining sea, how much more enraged will the public become with what is already our least liked immigrant population, the Somalis?
