Minnesota: Tim Walz’s Office Claims He ‘Worked for Years’ to Stop Fraud as Investigation Heats Up
Breitbart ^ | December 29, 2025 | Amy Furr

Posted on 12/29/2025 9:52:19 AM PST by Red Badger

A video exposing childcare centers in Minnesota that were allegedly involved in fraud has caused leftist Gov. Tim Walz’s (D) officials to go on defense.

A spokesperson for his office defended him and claimed the governor has long worked to stop fraud, Fox News reported Sunday.

“The governor has worked for years to crack down on fraud and ask the state legislature for more authority to take aggressive action. He has strengthened oversight — including launching investigations into these specific facilities, one of which was already closed,” the official said, adding Walz “hired an outside firm to audit payments to high-risk programs, shut down the Housing Stabilization Services program entirely, announced a new statewide program integrity director, and supported criminal prosecutions.”

In a social media post on December 18, the governor said, “We will not tolerate fraud, and we will continue to work with our federal partners to ensure fraud is stopped and fraudsters are caught.”

However, the news comes as citizen journalist Nick Shirley reports on the issue in Minnesota, claiming he and his team have uncovered massive fraud, Breitbart News reported Saturday. The outlet noted some of the places Shirley visited where alleged fraud occurred were daycare centers that reportedly received millions in federal aid but had no children at their facilities.

FYI----Democrat Tim Walz adopted a new state flag. The 2024 flag resembles Somalia's national flag. First Democrat Walz changed the state’s identity to appease Somalis, then he allowed Somalis to steal $1-18 billion from taxpayers. pic.twitter.com/WI7KbmcvKp— Christian Collins (@CollinsforTX) December 3, 2025

========================================

MN Democrat AG Keith Ellison CAUGHT ON TAPE
Promising Favors to thieving Somali Immigrants —

Including Now-Convicted Somali Thieves — In Exchange for Democrat Campaign Cash
Gateway Pundit ^ | December 29, 2025 | Jim Hᴏft / FR Posted 12/29/2025, by Red Badger

A 54-minute secret recording from a December 11, 2021, closed-door meeting inside Minnesota Democrat, Attorney General Keith Ellison’s, official state office is resurfacing amid explosive revelations that 70 Somali community members in Minnesota participated in stealing $250 million in federal COVID child-feeding funds. On the tape released by "American Experiment" earlier this year, Democrat Ellison sympathizes with, encourages, and ultimately promises assistance to a group of thieving Somali businessmen, many of whom would later be charged or convicted in the largest COVID relief fraud scheme in U.S. history.

The fraudulent Democrat operation, centered around the notorious nonprofit Feeding Our Future, stole an estimated $250 million tax dollars intended to feed poor children but instead thieving Somalis used the tax dollars to purchase luxury homes, foreign real estate, jewelry, and lavish lifestyles. The audio reveals Ellison mocking state agency oversight, vowing to “fight” on behalf of the very operators who investigators say were deeply involved in a web of wire fraud, money laundering, and fake meal claims across Minnesota.

Soon after ---- on December 20, 2021,---- Democrat Keith Ellison’s campaign and that of his Democrat son Jeremiah Ellison received Democrat campaign donations from fraud-ridden individuals linked to Somali Feeding Our Future billion dollar thievery of taxpayers.

The more Walz opens his mouth, the worse he makes himself look. As if he didn’t already look bad enough…

The Democrat party has officially become the Hate Americans Party. Of course, they have been for years, but now they’re barely concealing the hatred.

If true, he’s incompetent. If false, he’s lying. Either way, he’s unfit for office.

I wouldn’t doubt he has “worked for years” to stop fraud.

He is as incompetent as they come, and any wrongs he has presided over which are not covered by his blistering incompetence are surely caused by his malignant ideological machinations.

Tim Walz is certainly involved in a number of aspects regarding the various frauds going on in Minnesota, but actually STOPPING the fraud, waste, and abuse is not his primary objective. Much of his effort is simply concealing the scope and methods used.

And the entire undertaking is HUGE, more than the gross domestic product of many small nations. Or some of the smaller states in the US.

Significant part of the rest of the United States.

That reminds me of when OJ said he was looking for the REAL killer..on the golf course. Walz, Ellison, Omar, and lets not forget these judges in Minnesota who keep on letting free these Somali thieves, they are ALL IN ON IT..ALL RANKED IN MILLIONS FOR THEMSELVES..just follow the damn money and you will find ALL the answers. After this, gotta go investigate NewSCUM, for the fires and also to find out what happened to the FireAid money that was supposed to go to fire victims but instead went into Dem NGO’s and NewSCUM’s pocket..heck I think what NewSCUM did was 1000 times worse than Walz, NewSCUM killed people, he’s a mass murderer

Surprised that “Dirty Tim” Walz hasn’t directed “Skinny Keith” Ellison to arrest Nick Shirley “because reasons” yet...

They need a real go-getter like “Dirty Jena” Griswold, who KNOWS how to deal with enemies of the Dirtycrats ‘the right way’.

Ask Tina Peters about what happens when you cross dirty state government...
