YouTuber Nick Sherley, who was praised by JD Vance over a controversial video alleging fraud at Somali-American-run daycare centers, has thrown support behind a new “Jewish invasion” theory online.
The 23-year-old responded to a post by fellow Youtuber Tyler Oliveira promoting a “documentary on New Jersey's Jewish Invasion.”
“EXPOSE IT ALL,” Shirley replied.
Shirley, who describes himself as an “independent journalist,” gained popularity in December after posting a 42-minute video in which he alleged that 10 day cares run by members of the Minnesota Somali-American community had misappropriated “upwards of $100 million” in taxpayer funds.
In his video, Shirley visited several of the centers, pretending to be enrolling his non-existent son in order to gain entry, as well as one Somali-owned business that Shirley alleged received $4 million in state funds.
After he was told he could not enter buildings with a camera to see children, Shirley concluded the daycares most be fronts.
"[Minnesota Governor] Tim Walz and the fraudsters aren't escaping this one," he claimed in the video, which has now been viewed almost four million times.
"In one day, my crew and I uncovered over $110,000,000 in fraud. This is just the tip of the iceberg. We the people simply work too hard and pay too much in taxes to allow this to happen. They must be held accountable."
The video caught the attention of high profile figures including FBI Director Kash Patel and the vice president, who reposted the video, writing: "This dude has done far more useful journalism than any of the winners of the 2024 @pulitzercenter prizes.”
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also announced that federal agents would begin conducting “door-to-door” raids in Minnesota in response to the report, while the administration briefly paused federal childcare funds to the state, drawing an angry response from Walz.
Though many of his specific allegations remain unverified, Shirley’s popularity among Republicans was not diminished and he was invited to attend Donald Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday in Washington D.C., by Minnesota Rep. Pete Stauber.
Stauber, who represents Minnesota's Eighth Congressional District, said Shirley did Minnesota "a tremendous service" by highlighting the alleged fraud.
The Independent has contacted the White House for comment over Shirley’s online comments and apparent support for the “documentary” about the “Jewish invasion” of New Jersey.
