Far-left Minnesota Governor Tim Walz tried to steal credit for today’s massive federal raids targeting the rampant fraud plaguing his state – fraud that exploded on his watch while he and his radical administration looked the other way.

Federal agents executed 22 search warrants across the Twin Cities this morning as part of an ongoing investigation into massive taxpayer-funded fraud schemes involving day care centers, autism programs, Medicaid, and other social services, the very programs Walz’s administration has overseen for years as billions in federal dollars vanished into the pockets of fraudsters.

Walz, clearly desperate to pretend he’s been tough on crime after years of ignoring whistleblowers and letting the scams run wild, rushed out a statement stating:

“If you commit fraud in Minnesota you’re going to get caught — and that’s exactly what we saw today. We catch criminals when state and federal agencies share information. Joint investigations work, and securing justice depends on it.

“Today’s raids by state and federal law enforcement happened because our state agencies caught irregular behavior and reported it. That’s how the system is supposed to work, and our agencies will keep at it as long as there are fraudsters around to put behind bars.”

The FBI Director then dropped this brutal truth bomb on X:

“Come again? This FBI and DOJ with our DHS partners drafted and executed every search warrant today. But go ahead and take credit for our work while we smoke out the fraud plaguing Minnesota under your governorship.”

The Gateway Pundit broke story after story exposing how convicted fraudsters claimed Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison were fully aware of the widespread racket but turned a blind eye.

We reported on the $11 million Medicaid scam where a major suspect fled the country after Walz’s soft-on-crime courts let him keep his passport.

We covered Dr. Mehmet Oz ordering a full-scale federal audit of Minnesota’s Medicaid programs after systemic fraud potentially topping $1 billion was uncovered, all under Walz.

Congressional hearings have roasted Walz for “criminal negligence or wild incompetence,” with data showing disproportionate involvement from certain communities in welfare, food stamps, and social service fraud.
