🇺🇸 WALZ'S DEFENSE: "I'VE WORKED FOR YEARS TO CRACK DOWN ON FRAUD" - THEN HOW DID $9 BILLION DISAPPEAR UNDER YOUR WATCH?

Tim Walz's official statement after Nick Shirley's video exposed billions in fraud:

"The Governor has worked for years to crack down on fraud and ask the state legislature for more authority to take aggressive action."

Let's examine that claim against reality:

What "worked for years" produced:

$250 million Feeding Our Future scam (ran during his administration)

$14 million fake autism diagnosis scheme (approved under his watch)

Housing fraud sending money to Kenya (happened on his watch)

$110 million+ in daycare fraud Nick found in one day (active right now)

Assistant U.S. Attorney estimates possibly $9+ billion total fraud

"Working to crack down" ..? That's presiding over the largest state-level fraud operation in American history.

Walz's November statement before full scale emerged:

"If you're committing fraud, no matter where you come from, what you look like, what you believe, you are going to go to jail."

Since then: How many have gone to jail under state charges Walz's administration brought?

The federal government brought the charges. FBI ran the investigations. U.S. Attorneys prosecuted the cases.

Walz's administration? Licensed the facilities. Processed the payments. Missed the violations. Renewed the licenses. Kept paying.

The violations were documented:

Quality Learning Center alone: 95 violations from 2019-2023 including:

- Failure to keep hazardous items away from children

- No records for 16 children

- Multiple safety violations

Minnesota DHS documented all of it. Then renewed the license. Then kept paying millions. That's systematic avoidance.

Why Walz can't defend himself:

Every explanation makes it worse:

Option A: "We didn't know."

Then your administration is incompetent beyond belief. The fraud was obvious enough that a citizen journalist found $110 million in one day, but your entire state apparatus with thousands of employees and hundreds of millions in oversight budget missed it for 5 years?

Option B: "We knew but couldn't stop it."

Then you just admitted powerless inability to enforce your own regulations. Why should voters trust you with anything if you can't shut down facilities violating 95+ safety requirements?

Option C: "We knew but didn't act because political considerations."

That's the answer nobody will say but everyone suspects. Investigating fraud in specific communities became politically radioactive, so enforcement stopped.

The timing destroys Walz:

He was the Democratic VP nominee in 2024. Lost. Now this breaks wide open in December 2025 as he's positioning for future runs.

If this had come out in October 2024? Harris-Walz loses Minnesota. Possibly the election.

So either:

- Trump/Republicans knew and held it for maximum damage

- Investigations were slow-walked until after the election

- The scale only became apparent recently

None of those scenarios make Walz look good.

The political calculation Walz faces:

Resign now: Admits guilt, destroys career, becomes cautionary tale

Fight it: Faces years of investigation, potential prosecution, career destroyed anyway

Blame underlings: Nobody believes governor didn't know about billion-dollar fraud in his state

What the statement tells you:

"Worked for years" = We knew there was a problem

"Ask legislature for more authority" = Blame them for my failure

"Take aggressive action" = Haven't actually done it yet

That's just an admission wrapped in bureaucratic language.

The fraud didn't happen despite Walz's efforts. It happened during them. Under his authority. With his appointees. In his state.

Either he's incompetent or complicit. Pick one.
