Here’s a report that none of the Credentialed Media bothered with, because it would require them to leave the office and it would be going against Somalis and Minnesota Democrats

Not that many of the leftist media outlets are even bothering to cover this, and the few who are tend to bury the story

FBI surges resources to Minnesota as Director Patel calls $250M fraud scheme ‘tip of a very large iceberg’

FBI Director Kash Patel said the agency has surged additional personnel and investigative resources to Minnesota as part of an ongoing effort to “dismantle large-scale fraud schemes exploiting federal programs.”

Patel said Sunday that the bureau moved resources into the state before recent online attention intensified, pointing to the Feeding Our Future investigation, which uncovered a $250 million scheme that siphoned federal food aid intended for children during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The case has already resulted in 78 indictments and 57 convictions, with prosecutors also charging defendants in a separate plot to bribe a juror with $120,000 in cash, Patel said, adding that the investigation remains ongoing.

“The FBI believes this is just the tip of a very large iceberg. We will continue to follow the money and protect children, and this investigation very much remains ongoing,” he wrote on X. “Furthermore, many are also being referred to immigrations officials for possible further denaturalization and deportation proceedings where eligible.” (snip)

Republican lawmakers, including House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., and Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., as well as Vice President JD Vance, have responded to the viral video, with Emmer accusing Gov. Tim Walz of sitting “idly by while billions were stolen from hardworking Minnesotans.”

Democrats are circling the wagons, because Waltz is a Democrat, Trump rails against Somalis, and it is just “a small amount of fraud compared to the federal budget.” But, imagine how many Americans could be helped with the money if it wasn’t given away fraudulently.

But, we do have some “pouncing”

MAGA World zeroes in on Minnesota over fraud scandal

It’s always wonderful how the MSM goes after Republicans when it was Democrats which did wrong. Back to the original

An X account calling itself Minnesota Staff Fraud Reporting Commentary, which says it consists of more than 480 Minnesota state staff members, wrote that Walz is “100% responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota.”

“We let Tim Walz know of fraud early on, hoping for a partnership in stopping fraud but no, we got the opposite response. Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports,” the group claimed. “In addition to retaliating against whistleblower[s], Tim Walz disempowered the Office of the Legislative Auditor, allowing agencies to disregard their audit findings and guidance.”

Anyone want to bet that Walz is a target of an investigation at this point?
