Peloni: Well, it’s a start. Similar referals should have begun a year ago at the latest, begging the question why the matters which are facing the expiration of statue of limitations are not being pressed forward as we speak. Will there simply be no accountability for the Covid scam, the election fraud, the lawfare showtrials, and the political censureship, among other relevantly unaddressed topics?

Vice President JD Vance has formally referred Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison to the Department of Justice Monday for criminal investigation after a new House Oversight report documented years of ignored fraud warnings. “The evidence is overwhelming that state officials knew about systemic fraud in Minnesota’s social services programs and chose to look the other way,” Vance said in a statement. Washington Times: Mr. Vance, the administration’s fraud czar, said he was making the referral after reviewing the findings from the House Oversight Committee.
The committee’s report, published Monday, alleges that Walz and Ellison were “aware of widespread taxpayer fraud in federally funded social programs for years” and did not take steps to stop it. An estimated $300 million in federal child nutrition funds and potentially $9 billion in Medicaid-related funds were “lost” or placed at “serious risk,” according to the report. “As a result, potentially billions of American taxpayer dollars were allowed to flow to fraudulent actors, while vulnerable populations were harmed and whistleblowers were ignored, sidelined and retaliated against,” the report says (Washington Times).

Jeff Charles at Townhall: Walz and Ellison had the authority to cut off payments to fraudulent operations, but they allowed taxpayer funds to continue flowing to these entities even after the red flags emerged in the Feeding Our Future case. The report highlights how the Department of Education continued paying Feeding Our Future and other fraudsters out of fear of political repercussions (Townhall).
Confirmed: Governor Tim Walz and AG Keith Ellison Knew FOR 6 YEARS of Rampant Minnesota Fraud But Said Nothing in Order to ‘Keep Somali Votes’

The scandal that has rocked Minnesota politics just got even worse.
A bombshell report released Monday by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Majority Staff concludes that Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison were repeatedly warned about widespread fraud in Minnesota’s taxpayer-funded programs for years, yet failed to take meaningful action while billions of dollars were allegedly siphoned from government programs.
The 205-page report, titled “The Cost of Doing Nothing: How Tim Walz and Keith Ellison Fueled Minnesota’s Fraud Explosion,” paints a devastating picture of political negligence, bureaucratic paralysis, and what investigators describe as a pattern of looking the other way while fraudsters looted public funds.
According to the report, senior officials in the Walz administration and Ellison’s office were aware of credible fraud concerns as early as 2019 within the Minnesota Department of Human Services and by 2020 within the Minnesota Department of Education.
Yet despite possessing the authority to suspend payments and remove fraudulent providers from government programs, state officials repeatedly failed to act.
According to the report:
- Senior officials in Walz’s office and Ellison’s office were aware of credible, systemic fraud in DHS programs as early as 2019 and in the Department of Education’s child nutrition programs by April 2020.
- In the Feeding Our Future case, MDE officials identified serious deficiencies yet voluntarily continued payments for another eight months until the FBI finally raided. This was NOT required by any court order.
- State agencies had clear authority to suspend or stop payments to suspected fraudsters without waiting for courts, FBI direction, or federal orders — but they refused to use it.
- Officials repeatedly cited litigation threats and fear of racism accusations as the real reason they kept cutting checks. Not law. Not regulations. Politics.
The report states bluntly: “Litigation threats and fear of accusations of discrimination, not legal or regulatory barriers, were repeatedly cited by state officials as the reason for continued funding of entities suspected of fraud.”
