GOP-Led House Committee Subpoenas Tim Walz In $250M Covid Fraud Investigation

Posted • September 6, 2024: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who has a folksy demeanor, proved what a caring individual is by signing legislation mandating free school breakfasts and lunches for all public school students in the state. However, the House Education and the Workforce Committee has subpoenaed Walz over the state's Feeding Our Future fraud scandal. Tim Walz, Minnesota's governor and the Democrat nominee for vice president, may have to stand before a U.S. House of Representatives committee to answer questions about the Feeding Our Future fraud scandal. The Minnesota-based nonprofit has been accused of diverting $250 million in federal funds meant to feed low-income children during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Republican-led House Education and the Workforce Committee issued subpoenas on Wednesday to Walz and leaders from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Office of Inspector General. …

The defendants are accused of using the majority of the stolen money to buy homes, property, luxury vehicles, jewelry and to pay for travel. In June 2024, a Minnesota man pleaded guilty to bribery after a bag filled with $120,000 in cash was left at a juror's home amid the trial of seven defendants. That juror was dismissed, and five of the defendants were found guilty. Four others have been charged in the bribery case. CBS News says that Walz has "denied that his administration dragged its feet in investigating the nonprofit," saying, "We caught this fraud. We caught it very early. We alerted the right people." As Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz oversaw the biggest COVID fraud scheme in the nation. A Somali crime syndicate stole $250M in COVID cash meant to feed kids. Walz did nothing and his state departments doled out the $. Members of the fraud donated to Democrats.

DOJ later caught on after it was absurdly obvious and charged 48 people but that later jumped to 70 indictments. If Walz allowed this fraud under his nose, how much fraud will he allow if he gets elected with Kamala? It will be total insanity. https://x.com/robbystarbuck/status/1831535474847986162 -- This is not a good look for Walz. I’m gonna take a guess that this is just the tip of the iceberg too. (…)
