Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a survivor of Somali clan violence and genital mutilation as a child, is now a human-rights activist who has long warned Western institutions of concerns about migrant community building initiatives.
The Southern Poverty Law Center labeled her an “extremist”.
On Friday, she directed attention to the SPLC’s recent federal indictment that confirmed the donor-funded organization engaged in soliciting Americans into political deception at the highest of levels.
A federal grand jury in Alabama charged the SPLC on 11 counts including wire fraud, bank fraud, and conspiracy to commit money laundering earlier this week. Ayaan Hirsi Ali speaks out after the author, activist, and conservative free-thinker was once identified by the same group as a radical.

The SPLC indictment came as prosecutors allege the group diverted millions of donor funds to members of hate groups that it condemned publicly, now deviously revealing hidden transfers to fictitious entities. In 2016, the SPLC placed Hirsi Ali in their “Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Extremists” before quietly scrapping it later, often propagating against her, but she responded recently in an article to The Free Press with statements on social media.
Hirsi took to X posting the article and saying, “Every major civic institution that traded its founding mission for the prestige of enforcing multiculturalist orthodoxy deserves the same scrutiny, the same audit and, when warranted, the same indictment.”
Hirsi Ali describes the pattern in which opaque institutions and organizations shield the brutal truth about clan loyalty, fraud, and political influence within certain migrant communities. In Maine, Somali diaspora networks have secured millions in Medicaid and MaineCare funding while maintaining ties to foreign interests abroad.
The Maine Wire has extensively documented the Gateway Community Services saga, which led to Somali-American Abdullahi Ali fleeing the country after billing MaineCare to the tune of approximately $30 million dollars. While Ali drew funds from the Maine taxpayer hydrant, state audits flagged overbilling while he publicly boasted of bankrolling arms deals and a militias in a semi-autonomous region of Somalia.
State Rep. Deqa Dhalac (D-South Portland) in her assistant executive director role at Gateway was also dragged into congressional scrutiny by the U.S. House Oversight Committee. She has openly advocated for domestic individuals to remit money directly benefitting Somalia, while encouraging roundtrip travel to the country under the State Department’s highest advisory against travel.
Evidently, the dynamics Hirsi Ali repeatedly flags in her writings have embedded deeply along the northern border of the United States, which provides easy access to international airports in Canada. Minnesota is the largest Somali community outside of East Africa, where federal prosecutors are securing dozens of guilty pleas in fraud schemes that diverted millions in taxpayer funds.

Maine, home to New England’s largest Somali populations in Lewiston and Portland mirrors these exact models in plain sight. The formation of tight-knit diaspora networks allows for welfare-system exploitation, informal trust-based money remittance structures, subsurface voter production, and Democrat officials that legislatively enable it all.
The very courageous Ayaan Hirsi Ali is only one of MANY who has been targeted by the SPLC for “describing the pattern in which opaque institutions and organizations shield the brutal truth about clan loyalty, fraud, and political influence within certain migrant communities.”
Never mentioned in this or most articles, however, is that Somalia is overwhelmingly Sunni Muslim. “Muhammad allowed lying (“taqiyya”) to obtain wealth and to further the cause of Islam.” -Answering Islam, C-16, Understanding. Dishonesty and Deceit in Islam. Religion is the root cause, not culture, for committing fraud against infidels in particular.
One can only imagine the fraud going on in the People’s Republic of Portland Me. With the willing assistance of the democrupts.
I have no idea if this woman is righteous or part of the problem. Unfortunately there has been so much corruption and theft from her cohorts that has come to light in the past 18 months that all in any power or wealth are being scrutinized. The so called ‘Governor’ and her ‘minions’ have allowed so much corruption in our state that if you are of Somali decent, you’re guilty before proven innocent. It’s not right but it is the reality that THEIR most prominent people have created.
