The Department of Justice announced criminal charges against 15 defendants in Minnesota on Thursday, alleging schemes that targeted more than $90 million in taxpayer funds across state-managed Medicaid programs.
Colin McDonald, assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s National Fraud Enforcement Division, said the cases involve seven Minnesota-run Medicaid programs that prosecutors say were “systematically pilfered by fraudsters” who treated taxpayer-funded services as “their personal piggy bank.”
“Let me be clear upfront about something: This is not the end of our work in Minnesota," McDonald said. "This is the beginning of our work in Minnesota. The fraud here in Minnesota is shocking.”
McDonald pointed to Minnesota’s housing stabilization services program, which was designed to help homeless residents find and keep housing, as one of the starkest examples. The program was initially estimated in 2020 to cost about $2.5 million per year, but ballooned to more than $104 million by 2024, which McDonald attributed to fraud.
“One of the programs has been completely shut down because there’s no money left: It’s all gone,” McDonald said, adding that the program was shut down in 2025 and “these services no longer exist for these vulnerable homeless populations.”

$90 million. That’s $0.09 billion
When are they going after the other $8.91 billion the Minnesota fraudsters stole?
“I’m shocked—shocked! I tell you!—to learn there is fraud in Minnesota.”
From the press conference today:
COLIN MCDONALD: “For example, one defendant is charged with defrauding the integrated community supports Medicaid program.”
“This program is designed to help individuals with disabilities live independently. One patient was supposed to be receiving 24-hour care through this program, but he was actually being serviced by a fraudster and received no services.”
“This patient was later found dead. Meanwhile, the architect of this fraud scheme was billing Medicaid as if he was providing care to this patient.”
“The defendant even submitted a claim of over $400 for services he never provided the day before this man died.”
Is walz or omar on the list? 🤔
Saw the presser right after DJT did his. Some guy hobbles away after jumping out of a 4th floor window to get away. Anything to make that idiot Gov. look bad and especially the atty. general Ellison. It plays into Yogi’s wisdom.
Is walz or omar on the list? 🤔
They should be. The ring leader, Aimee Brock, who was just today sentenced to over 40 yrs in prison said that Omar was well aware of the fraud and even assisted the fraudsters. If a thorough investigation is done, I bet there is evidence of both her and Walz’s involvement. In addition to many other politicians and state employees.

Hat tip to the DOJ keep up the good work.
WALZ AND OMAR NEXT!
Good freaking grief..he said IT’S ONLY THE BEGINNING.
I don’t want to see Walz or Omar walk untouched by this. They might be up to their eyeballs in this multi-billion dollar corruption. Investigate with a laser beam focus!
AND ELLISON!
Only the white ones will go to jail.
“WALZ AND OMAR NEXT!”
Get them!!
Dems: Hey, why go into politics if they cut off the fraud?
Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and his father and Monica Conyers the city council president, stole millions including from federal money intended for needy young children. He went to prison but was later given a commuted 28 year sentence down to 7 years already served by Trump.
“Only the white ones will go to jail.”
Or very light sentences.
U.S. District Judge Nancy Brasel gave Feeding Our Future defendant Zamzam Jama a sentence of only six months in jail, followed by one year of probation, for her role in the scheme.
A white woman. No surprise there.
Wow, thanks. I didn’t read all the details. That’s horrible those bastards killed that poor man. Ought to be first degree murder.
“ Good freaking grief”
Come on, Ann. You know how this plays. Get a 1% win, say “only the beginning” and then what? How many times has Lucy yanked the football? You still believe true justice is coming? Color me jaded.
