It’s bigger than Tim.

Even though the legacy media are doing everything possible to look the other way, we are learning that Minnesota governor Tim Walz is at the center of a massive fraud and coverup.
You remember Tim Walz. He was Kamala Harris’s pick for VP on the 2024 Democratic presidential ticket. He’s the guy that put tampon dispensers in the boys’ restrooms of Minnesota middle schools.
The things coming to light about Tampon Tim aren’t coming from a disgruntled employee or a lone wolf whistleblower, whose incentives and motivations might be called into question. These revelations come from no fewer than 480 employees of the Minnesota Department of Human Services, who have accused the governor of not only orchestrating a coverup, but vigorously – and at times viciously – retaliating against whistleblowers.
So, what’s it all about?
It’s about a ring of Somali immigrants who have stolen a great big pile of money. Thanks to the open arms of über-liberal Minnesota, Somali immigrants have flooded the state – to the point that Minnesota is home to the largest concentration of Somali immigrants in the country.
Somalis don’t bring a lot to the table. The majority Sunni Muslim nation is one of the least developed on the globe. It is deeply impoverished and torn by civil strife. The illiteracy rate exceeds 50 percent.
The Somali immigrants at the center of this story are either accused of – or in some cases have already been convicted of – stealing over a billion dollars of taxpayer money. A billion dollars – that’s with a “B.”
That pile of your money consists of funds stolen via COVID relief scams, money siphoned out of loophole-riddled government programs aimed at things like housing, mental health, disability services and childhood autism; and money purloined from other government do-good programs. The money that didn’t stick to the fingers of the accused Somalis was funneled back to Somalia – where a generous portion found its way into the hands of the terror group al-Shabaab.
Rather than address any of this, Tim Walz first tried to ignore it. When that didn’t work, he declared jihad on those blowing the whistle.
Tim Walz is a bad guy. We know that. But he’s not the real story.
The real story here is about much more than one corrupt, looney-leftist politician. What we should really be examining is the smorgasbord of high purpose-claiming government programs that are so massive in scope and possessed of such amorphous goals that they easily lend themselves to corruption on this scale.
In the 60 years since the birth of Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty if we have learned nothing else, we have learned that massive government do-good programs funded by massive piles of taxpayer cash seldom accomplish their stated goals or do the good that they promise to do.
Instead, the money winds up being wasted at best or outright stolen at worst.
Forget about Tampon Tim. Focus instead on the fact that a nation that’s $37 trillion in debt can’t afford this kind of thing anymore.
You’re so right when you state that “we can’t afford this kind of thing anymore.” I recall my grandparents being shocked at billions under Reagan. Having survived the Great Depression, they couldn’t wrap their heads around so much debt. The sad fact is that few people can truly fathom the vastness of $37 Trillion. We got to that point because we could never really afford the spending of our politicians—those we actually elect to mind the store. This is on us.
You always have to wonder about the motivations of people who arrange to put themselves in charge of large amounts of poorly-monitored money. I think a team of good forensic accountants could figure out pretty quickly what Mr. Walz’ percentage actually was, even if he’s really good at hiding it. These programs are no different for politicians than car washes and laundromats are for the mafia. They report whatever they feel like reporting and nobody cares enough to dispute it.
$37 trillion!? That’s what it was back in early August. It now stands at $38.4 trillion.
This is just a pin prick of corruption in Deep Blue States. The Democrats have flooded our minds with so much corruption and distractions making it almost impossible to remember what happened three months ago. Let’s go back to the one speech, then candidate B.H. Obama made when he said, “Help me Fundamentally change America…” How does one do that? Really think about that. An organization is in place that is so vast and powerful, it can bring into our Country (illegally) millions upon millions of people from all over the world that contribute nothing, do not and will not assimilate to be an American, and will vote whether legal or illegally however the powers to be tell them to vote. Add corrupt Marxist loving judges to high courts, run off the opposition to other states, change the political environment one neighborhood at a time, and WaaLaa! Fundamental change cancer is off and running amuck. Toss in a few billionaires who fund radical groups such as Antifa, BLM to raise hell and keep the population in check due to fear. And then there is the media. Tell a lie enough and it becomes the norm and the perverted truth.
The Somali’s are pawns profiting off this cancer. Question is, how far will the Trump Justice Department pursue this, and will high level heads be brought to justice? Until that happens, nothing will change. Merry Christmas Everyone!
I do not believe that our government was founded on the principle of becoming an ATM to take care of people! Thanks to LBJ we have people who clearly work the system so they do not have to WORK. LBJ BRAGGED that because of his welfare policy would keep the black vote for 200 years! What he created was a system where people had rather have kids than work! AND who has suffered because of it? Be honest…the children! You see black and white kids who are a mess! They have no values! They loot and steal, do drugs and spend most of their lives in PRISON! Who is responsible? People like tampon timmy who foster this kind of life style. You see videos on you tube where these people are BRAGGING about how much they are getting from welfare because they have learned how to work the system!
History has taught us, if you are willing to read and take it seriously, you can’t sit on your fanny and WATCH other people work so you can eat! The Mayflower people learned real quickly that you can’t let a few of the people do all the work while others WATCH!
A lot of them STARVED! Thank God my Grandmother instilled in me a SOLID work ethic! No one owed me a dime I didn’t work for.
We have come too far down the rabbit hole to put on the brakes to be able to stop. Mainly because the people we have voted for have the idea they can work the system as well. People complain about how high our taxes are, well it would help if those who are working the system when caught were actually PUNISHED instead of ignoring it and allowing them to stay in office. Starting with tamon timmy, aoc, and others. Think on this: where are our hard earned tax dollars REALLY GOING???
right win and left wing talkers , media or public, do more to damage this country. the right and left politicians got along for decades ill we acquired the internet and every flame thrower had a talk show or column. I volunteered on both sides for years. NO MORE. WE ALL LOOK LIKE CHILDREN IN A PLAYGROUND….ESPECIALLYTHE TALKERS AND WRITERS. NO ONE HAS A PLUS FOR THE OPPOSITE SIDE. FLAME THROWERS FOLKS. AM 80 AND WORKED A LOT OF CAMPAIGNS.
My grandfather came to Texas in 1895 at age nine in a covered wagon train from Tennessee. On April 9, 1865, my great grandfather stood with General Robert E. Lee at Appomattox, Virginia with the surrender of the Army of Northern Viriginia. In my years, I’ve visited with Werner von Braun, Henry Kissinger, Edward Teller, etc. These people all praised the United States and felt America was a light in the world. I, as millions in our country, pray daily for those in leadership positions in the country. Their responsibilities are enormous. But I believe that our one nation under God has many great years ahead.
It turns my stomach every time I watch what is happening to this country. I have trouble remembering ANY government program that actually accomplished it’s intended purpose, at least in my lifetime. Try building the Panama canal or Hoover Dam today! Reagan quoted the 9 worst words in the English language: “I’m from the government and I’m here to help!” Democrats don’t want to solve problems, they want to prolong them. By keeping the poor dependent on assistance they keep themselves in power by providing it to them. People that work hard for what they have are not very tolerant of people who refuse to attempt to work for anything, and even less tolerant of those that steal from them. They also tend to be proud of what they have earned or done. I hear people say everything is “a constitutional crisis!” Have they ever read ANY of the constitution?! I’m pretty sure most of it applies to citizens of the country, but not invaders of it. Who is actually surprised that a portion of the people from any country on earth are bad? When millions swarmed across the border, only an absolute idiot would think those were all wonderful people that just wanted a job and a house!
The Bible was a foundational document in America, and the Bible was printed and sent to school children. My wife and I wrote a speech for President Trump in his first term and watched him deliver the speech live. He noted that God commanded ancient Israel to Welcome the Stranger since Israel had been a stranger in Egypt (for a little over 400 years). However, the strangers were to abide by the laws of the country of Israel. Many of the 17- or -19 million immigrants coming to the United States had no intention of abiding by our laws. Too many have caused problems only to criticize the United States for its generosity. We have sometimes been too generous a people.
I just want to know How is it that the only job the GAO is to watch HOW the government spends money and they didn’t catch the problem going on in Minnesota when it was say 50 Million. How could it go for so long and reach about 1 Billion??? Maybe we need to look at WHO is Watching the government for the American People and FIRE a FEW and get some Effective people in and Just maybe we can stop some of this FRAUD. Just Thinking about it.
