Tom Tiffany Blasts Gov. Evers Over MN Fraud Questions
MacIver Institute ^ | December 30, 2025 | Benjamin Yount

Posted on 01/01/2026 3:24:02 PM PST by T Ruth

Tom Tiffany is demanding answers from Gov. Tony Evers to make sure there is no Minnesota-style fraud happening in Wisconsin.

Tiffany, who is currently the northwoods’ congressman and is also running for governor as a Republican, took to X Monday to blast Evers.

“With billions in fraud exposed in Minnesota, remember this:

-Wisconsin Democrats are BLOCKING audits of our food stamp rolls.

-They’re also BLOCKING fraud reviews of our voter rolls," he wrote on X.

"As governor, I will root out fraud and deliver full transparency to the people of Wisconsin."

Gov. Evers has refused to share food stamp enrollment data with the Trump Administration, and Wisconsin is currently part of a federal lawsuit over that information.

Tiffany said Gov. Evers needs to be clear, and show the taxpayers of Wisconsin that there is no widespread fraud in any of the state’s public benefit programs.

"Even as massive fraud is exposed in Minnesota, [Gov. Evers] still refuses to release Wisconsin’s food stamp rolls for a fraud audit," Tiffany added. "He claims everything is 'just fine.' It’s not 'just fine' if taxpayer dollars are being misused."

Gov.Tina Kotex is blocking the same things in Oregon too!
She’s already under scrutiny for payments her wife has received.
She’s blocking DMV records too….
All demoncrats are destroying their states and ripping them off!
It’s been going on in Oregon for decades.

It’s about time elected “representatives” stood up to these UNIPARTY criminals.

Unfortunately Never Trump Uber weasel Speaker Robin Vos and the utterly clueless RPW Chair Brian Schimming call the shots on R side. As a result, 2026 results are baked in extending their record to 5-24 in statewide elections since 2018.

These two are more interested in purging independent conservatives and driving TPUSA out of the state then fighting socialists

. . .The majority of Somalis have settled in Minnesota; in fact Somalia’s fourth Prime Minister Abdirizak Haji Hussein lived there for the last fifteen years of his life. Urban pressures like increasing crime, decreasing job opportunities, and overcrowding forced some Somalis living in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis and St. Paul) metropolitan area to move to Wisconsin. Since the 1990s, Barron — the county seat of Barron County — in northwestern Wisconsin has a total population of 3,000 with approximately 400 Somali residents. Local initiatives such as a larger ESL program, a soccer club, and cultural information nights have provided increased awareness and welcome to Somali refugees. . .

. . .Meth is a stimulant that affects the brain and body, and is commonly sold in crystal or powder form, according to the state Department of Health Services. The agency goes on to say that Northwest Wisconsin suffered a surge in its use in the late 1990s and 2000s.

And the number of cases filed over the years in Barron County for possession of meth bears witness to the illegal drug’s continued popularity among drug users.

Stemming the flow of meth into the county is problematic as it concerns multiple jurisdictions from the time the drug is manufactured in Mexico and transported to trafficking hubs such as the Twin Cities, until it finally arrives into the hands of local meth users and dealers.

“The people that are selling it here are getting it from people who aren’t directly linked to the cartel, usually there are a few degrees of separation,” Hagen said. . .

Some governors believe it’s their duty to be a governor slow things down.

There is an old, old tradition of food stamp / welfare recipients in all the states along the Great River Road of making annual or biannual trips the length of the river from Minnesota to Louisiana and back, to refine for benefits in each state as if they actually lived in every state at once.
Each person was drawing welfare from at least 7 states at once. Maybe they could in all 10 but I seem to recall them just bragging about 7.
They just claimed residence with cousins and friends I guess. Either way, it meant fine clothes and luxury cars.
