Nearly 500 employees in Minnesota’s state government say Democrat Governor Tim Walz ignored their constant warnings about massive fraud by Somalis of the state’s aid programs.
The staffers in the state’s Department of Health Services also say that Walz retaliated against them for exposing the corruption in the state’s Somali community.
The group of state employees have been operating an X account for several years where they have warned the public of the cases of fraud and theft they are finding in the aid program. In years past they warned the former Democrat vice presidential nominee and the citizens of Minnesota of the widespread issues they have uncovered. But in a new post, the group is saying that not only has Walz ignored their warnings, he has punished them for raising the alarm.
“Tim Walz is 100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota,” the group said in a November 29 post referencing a New York Times article on the crimes. “We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud, but no, we got the opposite response.”
They added, “Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports. Instead of partnership, we got the full weight of retaliation by Tim Walz, certain DFL members, and an indifferent mainstream media. It’s scary, isolating, and left us wondering who we can turn to.”
