00:01It was the longest speech of its kind in history.
00:04For one hour and 47 minutes, US President Donald Trump broached almost every topic,
00:11from the economy to immigration, in his State of the Union address to the US Congress.
00:16Trump also turned to attacking the Somali community in the state of Minnesota.
00:21But when it comes to the corruption that is plundering, really, it's plundering America,
00:28there's been no more stunning example than Minnesota,
00:33where members of the Somali community have pillaged an estimated $19 billion from the American taxpayer.
00:41We have all the information.
00:43And in actuality, the number is much higher than that.
00:46And California, Massachusetts, Maine, and many other states are even worse.
00:52The Somali community in Minnesota has been a recurring target for Trump in recent months.
00:58Minnesota was also the state that saw two people get killed by ICE agents last month.
01:04The Somali pirates who ransacked Minnesota remind us that there are large parts of the world
01:11where bribery, corruption, and lawlessness are the norm, not the exception.
01:17Importing these cultures through unrestricted immigration and open borders
01:21brings those problems right here to the USA.
01:26During the speech, several Democrat lawmakers showed defiance towards Trump
01:31and protested his remarks on immigration.
01:34A number of Democrats also boycotted the address from the start.
