Social Media Exposé Draws Global Attention While Minnesota Media Look Away
Townhall ^ | December 28, 2025 | Scott McClallen

One man in his 20s blew open a nationwide scandal exposing how criminals stole billions of dollars from taxpayers. A week after the scandal broke, newspapers in Minnesota won't cover the story that has hit international headlines.

More than 79 million people have seen a story that newspapers in Minnesota have refused to cover.

But thanks to Elon Musk buying Twitter, now X, anyone with a camera can do the job that many media outlets won’t. And content creators can reach more people than a single newspaper.

Meanwhile, Gov. Tim Walz has downplayed the scandal and blamed it on the Trump administration.

The nation has watched the estimated fraud in Minnesota grow from $14 million via a program meant to help autistic kids, to $250 million via the Feeding Our Future scheme, to $1 billion, and now to now $9 billion.

🚨 Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable

Thank G-d this clown and his horrific running mate lost the election. America didn't dodge a bullet, it dodged an atomic bomb.

MN media is all in for democrats and will not report on anything that makes them look bad.

Keep in mind that they are at around $9 billion in fraud in one community, in one city, in one state, and they are just getting started there. I believe there is so much more to be found. Medicare fraud, food stamp fraud, etc. This amount of fraud makes the pallets of cash that Obama sent to Iran look tiny in comparison.

We are just throwing money at whoever wants it without any real scrutiny and nobody cares. Much like Hunter Biden and father it will all be forgotten about and only small people will go to jail.

The Red Star Tribune, and the rest of them, are a disgrace. It’s the biggest story in their state, whether they cover it or not.

THE MSM IS PUBLIC ENEMY #1

Hopefully Nick Shirley has protection. There are EVIL individuals out there who would harm him for no pay. The Crime Syndicate has lots of zealots.

I read that Brandon Tatum (Officer Tatum on youtube) has set up some kind of security for him while there. I am praying for his safety as well as Tatum and others that expose the corruption.

GREAT. Thanks for posting. The silence of millions (parties, media, evildoers) is ominous.
