Minnesota Fraud Controversy Shakes Capitol Hill

KEY POINTS: House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, one of Washington’s top-ranking Republicans, says he is open to legal action against Minnesota’s Democrat leaders following the viral release of a video alleging fraud in state-funded day care centers...

Emmer praised YouTube content creator Nick Shirley’s recent report, which alleges that several state-funded day care and learning centers, largely operated by immigrants from Somalia, do not provide legitimate services...

“Whistleblowers are coming forward,” said Emmer, who added that he would support the prosecution of Walz and Ellison if there was documented evidence of their retaliation against whistleblowers...

“What they’re saying is they told Tim Walz, they told Keith Ellison about the fraud when it was happening. And they not only didn’t do anything, they retaliated against them,” Emmer said.

MY TAKE: This might be too little too late because the damage is done. Tim Walz and the Democrats in Minnesota fraud scandal need to be held accountable, put to trail and if convicted sent away for a long time. What is so infuriating with this story is the retaliation and weaponization done against the whistleblowers and the YouTube content creators.
