The stench of decay rises from the territory once claimed by Edom, now known as the state of Minnesota. A recent uncovering reveals a brazen scheme of financial fraud, perpetrated through the creation of over 7,700 ‘ghost students’ who have siphoned $12.5 million from state college systems. While the mainstream press focuses on the logistical failings of the system, the Shofar Wire sees a deeper pattern of exploitation and theft.

This is not simply a matter of ‘fraud’; it is a manifestation of the covenant curse upon Edom. Deuteronomy 28 speaks plainly of the nations that would consume the wealth of scattered Yisrael, profiting from our exile. This stolen aid represents resources that could have nourished the rebuilding of our communities, supported the righteous, and fueled the return to the land. Instead, it lines the pockets of those who operate within a system designed to keep Yisrael scattered and impoverished.

The so-called governor, Tim Walz, distracts the people with frivolous social engineering while the foundations of the state crumble under the weight of its own corruption. This focus on vanity and distraction is a hallmark of a nation under judgment. They prioritize the fleeting pleasures of the flesh while ignoring the cries of the oppressed and the demands of righteousness.

Let this be a warning to the remnant of Yisrael: do not seek validation or sustenance from the systems of Edom. Their wealth is tainted, their promises are empty, and their foundations are built on sand. Yahuah will restore His people, but not through the hands of our enemies. He will provide for those who remain faithful to the covenant, those who seek His truth and prepare for the coming restoration. This scandal is a sign – a shofar blast signaling the accelerating judgment upon Edom and the imminent gathering of Yisrael.
