That Tim Walz is abandoning his reelection campaign for Minnesota governor amid a maddening
multibillion-dollar welfare fraud scandal should serve as a big reminder: Democrats are robbing you every day and hardly even trying to hide it.
Recall Walz as the stereotypical self-abasing Democrat white male, presumably heterosexual, who was inexplicably chosen to be Kamala Harris’ running mate in the 2024 election. His stint in that role was the equivalent of a 300-pound belly flop into a pool full of sand, with memorable moments like when he said he rode his bicycle as a child and was
“proud of that service” or otherwise was proven to have lied when he
referred to “the weapons of war that I carried in war.” (He never saw combat.)
Now, however, Walz is most known as the Minnesota governor who oversaw and enabled a years-long scam in which Somalis occupying large swaths of his state were pocketing hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars with fake child care and health care operations that provided no services to anyone at all. The scheme was uncovered mostly through federal prosecutions, which were then covered by our dying national news media. But most devastating for Walz and the state’s whole government was a
45-minute video produced by a 23-year-old YouTuber who demonstrated just how brazen the fraud was by simply knocking on “child care center” doors — only to be greeted by savage Somalis who spoke next to no English and had no kids inside.
The mass fraud was made possible by obscene welfare programs that Democrats like Walz — especially Walz — champion in order to lock in votes from impoverished foreigners and otherwise ne’er-do-wells who have no interest in working.

Remember how Democrats recoiled in absolute horror when Elon Musk’s DOGE effort attempted to
clip a few million from the federal budget, including the
unending flood of money that we send overseas called “foreign aid”? That’s all your money, and they claw for each and every dollar in order to send it all to people just like those Somali scammers.
Democrats lie and steal. Then they resent you for finding out.
Commentary:
There is a lot more than meets the eye here.
Tim Walz’s Minnesota is just the tip of the iceberg because the fraud found in Minnesota is so pervasive and there is a decade of people in government and law enforcement actively ignoring the fraud and trying to cover up the fraud and intimidate people who tried to blow the whistle on the fraud.
This corruption reaches out from the The Obama administration to the Office of the Governor down to the mayor's office in the Twin cities.
