Tim Walz's hostile work environment at DHS

It isn't a secret that Tim Walz is running for a third straight term as Minnesota's governor. What's been a secret up until this tweet appeared is that Tim Walz's Deparment of Human Services is a hostile work environment. According to the tweet, "Tim Walz is utterly dishonest, malicious at heart & has dangerous intent. The 'folksy' public image Tim Walz portrays is not even remotely what he is like to work with. Despite repeated warnings about fraud, Tim Walz opted to ratchet up the retaliation and silence any ethical voices. Besides fraud, Tim Walz has allowed agencies to spend thousands, possibly millions on retaliation efforts to scare, threaten, and silence concerned employees."

The tweet continues "Worst of all, despite unprecedented funds awarded or appropriated to DHS, our agency is now a hollow shell of incompetency as our programs have been destroyed & most ethical staff have left."

Don't think that this much fraud happens by chance. Joseph Thompson is the Acting U.S. Attorney for Minnesota. He thinks that as much as $1,000,0000,000 of fraud has been committed in Minnesota. That'a staggering amount of money in a state the size of Minnesota.

First, let's remember that much of Minnesota's general fund money the past 4 years is COVID money. This isn't money that came from a vibrant economy. It came from excessive government spending. Had Gov. Walz invested that money on small business tax cuts and making all schools safer, we'd be so much better off.

Instead, Gov. Walz paid off his friends at Education Minnesota and in the NGO/NPO sector. Does anyone think that the information in this report pass the sniff test?

As ethical MN DHS staff, we cannot take 4 more years of the worst governorship to disgrace the country. Tim Walz is utterly dishonest, malicious at heart & has dangerous intent. The “folksy” public image Tim Walz portrays is not even remotely what he is like to work with. Despite… https://t.co/XL2qXtSDMs

Tim WalZ is a failure. The state record surplus included tons of one-time COVID cash. Medicaid fraud is running rampant. Street crime has made people feel unsafe. Taxes have been raised on every Minnesotan. Now we're staring at a $6,000,000,000 deficit.
