Gov. Tim Walz won't seek re-election amid Minnesota fraud scandal

He quit.
quote:

In the fall of 2024, the governor of Minnesota was thrust into the national spotlight as Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ "White guy tacos"-loving vice presidential nominee. But after a meteoric fall from grace, Coach Tim announced on Monday that he has danced his last political waltz.

Although he is not resigning from office — at least not yet — Gov. Tim Walz will not seek a third term leading the Gopher State. In the end, the massive scale of Somali fraud that went unchecked under his nose was just too much to recover from.

Bad news on the Somali front snowballed fast for Walz, with reports that as much as $9 billion — with a "b" — was pilfered by members of the migrant community, while the governor appeared to do little but protect the thieves.

when thinking about posting a new topic ask yourself this question - "is this something that happened?" if yes, then chances are there is already a thread.

I was stunned he continued to run for re-election after the incredible defeat he and his dominatrix suffered a year ago.

They fact he 'was' a popular mouthpiece to the Left, meant they'd allow him to continue as Governor [by giving the good soldier any necessary support ... and not primarying him w/ Keith Ellison].

I love when the Left turns on those they love.

He's probably feeling the heat and knows what's coming down on his head.

He knows another shoe is about to drop on him. Or his handlers know the feds are not going to let this slide anymore and it will be a constant distraction.

Wasn't a thread about the "official announcement."

Weird thing to get worked up over either way.

Hope he skimmed enough money off the Fraud to make sure that his two lovely children (24 and 19) can continue to be Little Social Justice Warriors and never have to punch a clock and earn an honest living themselves.

Anybody else remember a few posters here who were downplaying this scandal? Decatur, sfp, and a few others?

I remember.

Any person making statements they will not be seeking re-election was put in submission. For the betterment of the country not all will be prosecuted and all will do as told. You will see more of this occur (not normal yet disregarded) and even on the D side.


So we’re not going to make examples of some these people and prosecute them for any crimes they’ve allegedly committed?

If you had really put Minnesota first, Tampon Timmy, you wouldn't be in this mess to start with.

This dude has an appointment with an indictment.

PS - I wonder what else is going to be exposed regarding this crook?

Great place to raise kids? Their public schools are in freefall.

What he meant to say was that he has enough money now, no need to work any more
