Angie Craig: Tim Walz is putting fraudsters in prison

It's still early in the primary season but Angie Craig is praising Tim Walz for his handling of Minnesota's fraud scandals. Recently, Rep. Craig said "I think the governor is taking and his team are taking an aggressive approach to crack down on fraud in Minnesota. They’re prosecuting and putting the folks who are perpetrating the crime in jail."

That's pretty stunning stuff to hear about Tim Walz's fraud prevention efforts. First, the vast majority of fraudstersare being dealt with by the federal government. Most of the grifters don't deal with the state government. So much for the governor's administration "taking an aggressive approach" in cracking down against the grifters. Next, if Gov. Walz's administration is taking an aggressive approach to fraud, why didn't we hear about it until 5 years after the grift started?

Angie Craig is a cookie-cutter progressive. Trusting her is foolish. Craig's political courage isn't exactly legendary:

Craig, a four-term lawmaker running in a contested Democratic primary in Minnesota’s 2026 Senate race, has largely avoided commenting on the multi-year welfare fraud schemes that occurred under Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s watch. When asked by the Daily Caller News Foundation whether the Walz administration bears responsibility for failing to protect stolen taxpayer dollars, Craig effusively praised the two-term governor and insisted they both have taken action to prevent fraud in the North Star State.
Talk is cheap, especially with politicians. Where's the proof that the Walz administration has taken swift, authoritative action against the fraudsters/grifters? If Ms. Craig didn't provide proof of action, her statements should be considered untrustworthy. I only know what I have proof for. This report puts Rep. Craig's statements into question:

The fact that Rep. Craig wouldn't sit for an interview isn't the type of thing that inspires confidence. Frankly, I don't trust her. Further, the evasiveness of Commissioner Tikki Brown were unsettling. Whether we're talking about Gov. Walz, Rep. Craig or Commissioner Brown, we didn't get a straightforward answer. That's more than ample reason not to trust these Democrats.

Minnesota fraud gets national attention

The Walz administration is getting nationwide attention, though it isn't the type of attention political administrations typically seek. Sohrab Ahmari didn't bury the lede when he wrote "There is no whitewashing this scandal: segments of the Somali community in Minneapolis have been engaged in systematic welfare fraud, and used some of the proceeds to fund the Al-Shabaab terror group in their homeland." Imagine the Outrage If... Imagine the outrage if "Hassan and her alleged co-conspirators recruited Somali parents’ children into autism therapy services — even if a child did not have an autism diagnosis — facilitating fraudulent claims. Parents reportedly received monthly kickbacks ranging from $300 to $1,500 per child, with some allegedly threatening to go to other fraud networks unless their rates were increased." It doesn't end there: Sure enough, both the number of autism providers and the rate of diagnosis have ballooned, with Somali activists insi...

Jaylani Hussein's phobia of whites?

A frequent reader of this blog sent me a picture showing gubernatorial candidate Jeff Johnson surrounded by Somalis following a November 2017 St. Cloud City Council meeting. This is that picture: Recently, a different frequent reader of this blog sent me a letter highlighting Jaylani Hussein's paranoia of white people: We are asking every member of our community to stay vigilant. If you see threats, harassment, or hateful content online, especially targeting Somali or Muslim communities in Minnesota, please report them immediately to CAIR-Minnesota and local authorities. We are tracking these developments closely. What’s happening: Our community is under coordinated attack In the last 48 hours, former President Donald Trump announced that he will immediately end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali immigrants in Minnesota, a move that could tear families apart and send people back to a country they haven’t seen in decades. He justified this dangerous decision using false, I...

Proof that Tim Walz doesn't care about fraud or other crime

Image
Anyone that thinks that Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, doesn't care about preventing crime or fraud hasn't read this article . Alpha News is reporting that "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) has confirmed that Dylan Adams, the fiscal policy analyst caught on video vandalizing Teslas in Minneapolis, is still employed by the state — meaning Minnesota taxpayers are footing the bill for his salary. In response to Alpha News inquiries, a DHS spokesperson said: "Dylan Adams is a current employee." Apparently, the Walz administration doesn't care that it's employing a vandal in its Department of Human Services. As for whether Adams "has faced consequences for racking up more than $21,000 in damage during work hours , the agency offered little transparency. 'No public data exists with respect to disciplinary action,' the spokesperson said." This reminds me of the old phrase I coined, which says 'It's impossible to...
