Minnesota has an ever-growing fraud problem. The Feeding Our Future estimate is the one provided by the U.S. Department of Justice almost two years ago.

Tracking Minnesota’s growing fraud problem

There are many examples of Minnesotans defrauding the federal government directly (PPP, small business loans, etc.). These cases are not included.

I will have less of a presence on The Torrid Tribe Community. We have very little activity here. This is a sign to me that members have found other social media resources that they are spending more time in. I am happy to see less censorship on social media in general. I started The Torrid Tribe 4 years ago when we were in a state of censorship and lockdowns. It was a difficult time and this was a haven and sanctuary for so many.
I will be lightly posting things here to give you all content to see. This community will always be open to everyone and will resurrect to its full capacity if subscribers show they want it fully operational again with full time administration.
Thank you for being a part of this community. Sending each of you hugs.

Known as one of America’s most recognizable U.S. senators and outspoken political voices, John Fetterman didn’t just respond — he delivered a powerful message about freedom of thought, personal responsibility, and respect for everyday Americans.
“Pope Leo XIV says my views are dividing people,” John Fetterman began in a calm but firm tone. “But what truly divides this country is mocking anyone who thinks differently and pretending only one side deserves to be heard.”
And he didn’t stop there.
“You know what’s even ...
