Is It Over for Tim Walz?

Over the last couple of months, the Minnesota fraud scandal has exploded from a local news story to perhaps the number one story in the national (and even international) news. We at American Experiment have been in the middle of the storm. One tweet we did about the Feeding Our Future scandal that was retweeted by Libs of TikTok, Chris Rufo, Elon Musk and many others got 47 million views on X alone.

The scandal has now expanded far beyond Feeding Our Future. Joe Thompson, the Assistant U.S. Attorney who has prosecuted the fraud cases, has said publicly that at least half of all spending on Minnesota Medicaid programs is fraudulent. That would be around $9 billion. And there are other welfare programs that are neither Feeding Our Future (administered by the Department of Education) nor Medicaid. Child care centers, for example.

The latest fraud bombshell is a video by a young YouTuber named Nick Shirley. Shirley travels around doing interviews of various kinds; he has been to Paris and New York, and probably other places, as well as Minnesota. I don’t know Shirley, but I have no reason to doubt that his videos are genuine:

Nobody in this country is as tone-deaf as Walz.

To see the extent of fraud almost exclusively of Somalian origin, yet he fervently wishes more Somalians to come to Minnesota is just plain stupid.

Maybe the somalians have got their hooks into walz even deeper than it seems.
With an actual investigation, such things may be yanked out into the open...
