P.I.D. Radio 1/17/26: Iran, Somali Cash, and Moar!
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
IRAN BURNING and couriers hauling suitcases full of US dollars to Mogadishu dominated headlines this week.
It’s been reported that as many as 20,000 Iranians have been killed by the regime there, although it’s impossible to get good information from Iran. The ayatollahs have imposed an Internet blackout that may last through March.
Meanwhile, the Somali scandal keeps getting bigger. It was revealed this week that as much as $700 million has been carried out of the country in suitcases over the last two years. The scope of the operation means this isn’t limited to the Somali community in Minneapolis but probably is spread over five to eight states.
What’s infuriating about this emerging scandal is that it’s been an open secret in Minnesota for the last ten years, but it wasn’t until YouTuber Nick Shirley posted a video about this two weeks ago the government sat up and took notice—despite these cash flows being reported by investigators for the Joint Terrorism Task Force in 2017.
Also: The spirit(s) behind ICE protesters.
Our new book The Gates of Hell is now available in paperback, Kindle, and as an audiobook at Audible!
Derek’s new book Destination: Earth, co-authored with Donna Howell and Allie Anderson, is now available in paperback, Kindle, and as an audiobook at Audible!
Sharon’s niece, Sarah Sachleben, was recently diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up. If you are led to help, please go to GilbertHouse.org/hopeforsarah.
