Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is facing calls to resign amid mounting allegations of fraud in federal programs in the state.
Republican lawmakers at the state and federal level have called on the governor, who was the Democratic Party's vice presidential nominee in 2024, to resign.
Walz has defended himself, previously telling Newsweek that he has "worked for years to crack down on fraud."
Newsweek contacted Walz's office for further comment by an email sent outside normal business hours.
Why It Matters
Prosecutors have alleged that fraud schemes targeting Minnesota-run programs may cost the state billions of dollars.

Some members of the community have warned that they have been stigmatized as a result of the ongoing cases.
The scandal could have serious ramifications on Walz's political standing. The two-term governor is running for reelection in 2026, but calls for his resignation could derail his campaign.
What To Know
Allegations of fraud have plagued Walz in recent weeks. On November 29, the X account @Minnesota_DHS, which says it represents 480 staff members at the Minnesota Department of Human Services, wrote, "Tim Walz is 100 percent responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota."

According to a New York Times report, some of the fraud cases were linked to parts of Minnesota's Somali community.

His defense of course will be in-cognitive recognition,meaning “I’m just a dummie”.
Kick him out and lock him up.
Deport the scumbags, jail the politicians and bureaucrats!
Even a “news” site sold for one dollar cannot look the other way.
“Resignation”
Forget resignation, I want to see the FBI no-knock raid his house at 3am in full riot gear with fingers on the triggers.
Then I want to see him frog-marched out in handcuffs wearing only his pink panties.
Of course, all filmed and shown live by CNN.
Resignation is yugely too kind.
He needs to be locked up for theft, fraud and RICO charges.
Yep. Remember during the campaign. he said he was a knuckle head.
Oh hell it’s Trump’s fault, leavy Timmah alone!
The bit about "being stigmatized" was inserted by the liberal journalist just trying to be helpful. (Sarcasm)
And the Dumocrats actually made this fraudster their VP candidate??? LOL.
How pathetic!

How is it possible that a state’s voters can get so screwed up that they vote for these kind of losers?

Necklace him - he likes the smell of burning rubber, after all.
