California’s Democrat Governor is attacking a journalist for exposing daycare fraud.
Governor Gavin Newsom implied investigative journalist Nick Shirley is a pedophile for exposing rampant daycare fraud in California and Minnesota.
On Monday evening, Nick Shirley released his latest video uncovering $170 million in fraud in California.
“We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences,” Nick Shirley said.
“California’s version of Medicaid called ‘Medi-Cal’ has more than doubled since 2022 from $108 billion to a proposed $222 billion in 2026. Their population, however, has not grown exponentially. However, their spending has,” Nick Shirley said.
“There has been a 1,000 percent increase in hospice care in Los Angeles County,” Nick Shirley said. It’s estimated that the fraud in California could be in the hundreds of billions of dollars.”
Nick Shirley visited ‘hospices’ in Los Angeles and ‘daycares’ in San Diego.
The Somali ‘daycare’ owner/operator screamed at Nick Shirley and called the police after he asked her why there weren’t any children in the facility.

Nick Shirley responded to Newsom’s grotesque attack.
“You do realize I’m trying to help America eliminate fraud and waste right? No need to try and make me look like the bad guy for exposing fraud,” Nick Shirley said.
“People are over it. Start working for the people and not against them,” he said.
