Scandal at the Top: Gov. Walz Under Fire for Fraud Cover-Up
Minnesota is in the grip of a scandal. Employees from the state’s Department of Human Services (DHS) are pointing fingers at Governor Tim Walz, accusing him of ignoring and even concealing a massive fraud. This scheme, involving a Somali immigrant network, reportedly siphoned off more than $1 billion in taxpayer cash, meant to help feed children during the pandemic.
According to insiders, Walz not only turned a blind eye but also retaliated against DHS employees who tried to blow the whistle. Allegations of intimidation, surveillance, and threats are now swirling, painting a bleak picture of a governor trying to maintain a facade.
The Gateway Pundit reported that 70 Somalis in Minnesota pilfered $250 million in COVID relief funds. These funds were supposed to feed children but instead were funneled out of the country. Despite convictions, millions remain lost, and the FBI is still probing deeper connections.
The fraud isn’t a one-time blip. It extends back five years, revealing multiple schemes that have collectively lifted over $1 billion from taxpayers, as reported by the New York Times. Walz, in a dodgy interview with NBC, brushed this off by branding Minnesota as a “generous, well-run state”—a lure for criminals, he says, without acknowledging his oversight role.
Welker: “Dozens of people of East African descent have been charged, convicted, and sentenced for stealing more than a billion dollars in taxpayer money from government programs during COVID… Do you take responsibility for failing to stop this fraud in your state?” Walz: “Well, certainly, I take responsibility for putting people in jail… Minnesota is a generous state, a prosperous state, a well-run state… We’re doing everything we can, but to demonize an entire community on the actions of a few, it’s lazy!”
DHS employees insist the rot starts with Walz. They’re now appealing to federal authorities for intervention. From ignoring audit findings to threatening whistleblowers, the accusations stack high. This isn’t just about fraud; it’s about the culture of management under Walz’s watch.
A group of DHS employees declared, “Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota… We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership… Instead, we faced retaliation.” They accuse Walz of blurring lines between politics and governance, appointing allies to high-power positions without merit, leading to unchecked fraud.
Minnesota finds itself tangled in a web of deceit, federal funds diverted under the guise of surplus, and a governor issuing distractions rather than solutions. The call for federal intervention isn’t just a last-ditch effort; it’s an urgent cry for transparency and accountability.
The DHS employees, echoed by over 480 colleagues on X, minced no words: “Having worked directly with you, Tim Walz… there’s a DISCONNECT in not only your intellectual abilities but also, your ability to understand ethics & good governance.”
In the wake of this chaos, the spotlight is firmly on Walz, with Minnesota and the nation watching closely.
