When the Small Business Administration (SBA) took a hard look at loans made in Minnesota during the Biden era, they uncovered nearly $400 million in suspected fraud.

“We worked through the holidays from Thanksgiving up to New Year’s on about 20,000 different files, found about 8000 instances of fraudulent loans,” says SBA Administrator @kloefflerga.

“[We] moved quickly to make sure that those borrowers, there were about 7,000 of them, some of them had two loans, could never access the services of the SBA again.” 

an Islamic group handed out Qurans and hijabs on campus while Christians were turned away from doing the same with Bibles

A Texas high school principal just resigned — after an Islamic group handed out Qurans and hijabs on campus while Christians were turned away from doing the same with Bibles.

Tiffany Doolan, principal of Wylie East High School in Wylie, Texas — located about 20 miles northeast of Dallas — submitted her resignation on May 26 after 19 years with Wylie Independent School District. The controversy began in February when outside representatives connected to the school’s Muslim Student Association set up a “Why Islam?” table during lunch, distributing Qurans, hijabs, and Sharia law pamphlets to students without district approval. The district’s own superintendent later acknowledged the event was a clear violation of board policy, stating that no religious materials are permitted to be distributed to students from any group. When Christian parents and a local radio host attempted to distribute Bibles, they were directed away from school property and held their outreach in the parking lot outside.

Photos also resurfaced showing Doolan wearing a hijab on campus during prior World Hijab Day events — a detail the district defended as student-led activity.
