I don't know that I have ever seen anything this brutal in politics.
Here's the post, but it's long, so the transcript follows:
This all started when The New York Times did a rare thing: It actually dabbled in journalism.
Because Minnesota has been embroiled by multiple fraud schemes involving billions of dollars, and most of that fraud has come from Somali migrants living in the state, The Times did actual research and concluded Gov. Tim Walz did absolutely nothing to stop it.
In response, the Minnesota Department of Human Service Employees, a group representing 480 state employees, said Walz was not only complacent about the fraud, but actively ran interference for the fraudsters out of his leftist sense of duty to multiculturalism.
Tim Walz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers using monitoring, threats, repression, and did his best to discredit fraud reports. Instead of partnership, we got the full weight of retaliation by Tim Walz, certain DFL [Democratic - Farmer - Labor Party] members and an indifferent mainstream media. It's scary, isolating and left us wondering who we can turn to.
In addition to retaliating against whistleblower, Tim Walz disempowered the Office of the Legislative Auditor, allowing agencies to disregard their audit findings and guidance. Media and politicians supporting Tim Walz or the DFL-agenda attacked whistleblowers who were trying to raise red flags on fraudulent activities.
This is a cascade of systemic failures leading up to Tim Walz. Agency leaders appointed by Tim Walz willfully disregarded rules and laws to keep fraud reports quiet - even to the extent of threatening families of whistleblowers.
Walz actively worked with his administration and Democrat leadership in Minnesota to cover it up and to threaten those who wanted to expose it??
As staff, we firsthand witnessed and observed fraud happening yet we were shutdown, reassigned and told to keep quiet. Sometimes more. Leadership did not want to appear to discriminate against certain communities and were unwilling to take action, such as stopping fraud, that would have an adverse impact on their image ...
It is a structure created and maintained by Tim Walz who has created an environment of inter-related agencies and institutions including the media - that help foster fraud through retaliation and turning a blind eye in exchange for political gain in the form of high power agency leadership jobs or other perks.
Fundamentally, Tim Walz is dishonest, lacks ethics and integrity, has poor leadership abilities, and has never taken any accountability for his role in fraud. Instead, Tim Walz deflects by blaming national politics for his own failings and distracts the public with inveterate lying.
When interviewed about the matter, Walz - who would have been U.S. vice president if Kamala Harris had won the election - took responsibility ... for all the arrests that have apparently happened in spite of him.
I take responsibility for putting people in jail ... It's not just Somalis.
When criminals finally do go to jail, he takes the credit, even though his own employees say he did everything in his power to keep the criminals out of jail.
Then, just to let everyone know he's tough on crime but also not racist, he lets us know the criminals aren't all Somali.
By "it's not just Somalis," he means "only 95% of the criminals were Somali."
I'll leave you with Trump's thoughts:
