Minnesota teacher pension fund under Tim Walz ‘blatantly cooked,’ investigator finds: ‘Undetected for decades’
Story by Susan Edelman • 20h


A pension investigator has found the books of Minnesota’s state retirement system under Gov. Tim Walz’s oversight “blatantly cooked” and cloaked in secrecy – prompting teachers in his home state to beg the vice-presidential candidate to tell the truth about lackluster investment performance and massive hidden fees.
 
Edward Siedle, an ex-US Securities and Exchange Commission lawyer privately hired by worried educators, has just published a bombshell 113-page report titled, “Minnesota Mirage: Sleight of Hand.”

“The investment returns have been inflated, and the fees grossly underreported to make the pensions appear to be doing better than they really are,” Siedle told The Post. “This has gone undetected for decades.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
