• Why I'm Grateful to Tim Walz

    Of the $18 billion in federal funding that went to 14 Minnesota-run
    welfare programs since 2018, HALF of that total may have been complete
    and total fraud.

    This scandal is a case study in government incompetence. Over 90 people charged with bilking at least hundreds of millions from programs meant
    to feed low-income children, with much of the fraud centered in
    MinnesotarCOs Somali community. And those are just the ones that were prosecuted.

    And when some Minnesota officials finally tried to stop the fraud in
    2021, one of the programs, rCLFeeding Our FuturerCY, sued the state for
    racial discrimination. A Leftist judge ordered the payments to resume
    and held the Department of Education in contempt, fining them $47,500. Minnesota officials under Governor Tim WalzrCOs watch retaliated against
    the whistleblowers and attempted to hide it all from federal investigators.

    And I am so grateful to Tim Walz for all of this.

    Walz is such a corrupt buffoon, he thought people were too stupid or ambivalent to ever notice the massive fraud taking placerCa or to put the pieces together and realize how the Left has imported countless migrants
    into the country and showered them with taxpayer funds, all to keep
    their party in power. But taxpayers did notice. And they do care.

    The larger problem is that itrCOs not just Walz and Minnesota. And that outright fraud may be the smaller issue. rCLLegal graftrCY in America is a
    far bigger problem, completely dwarfing the outright fraud.

    California, for example, has a state website listing thousands of
    government grants that have been awarded over the past few years
    totaling nearly $100 billion. This is taxpayer money, most of it coming
    from the federal government. And, unsurprisingly, the majority of this
    money has been squandered or funneled to leftist political groups.

    $25 billion was spent on programs for the homeless, averaging $133,629
    per homeless person. In theory that should have been enough to build
    each homeless person his/her own small, permanent dwelling. And yet
    California still has a massive homeless problem.

    Keep in mind, this is just federal grants going to CaliforniarCOs homeless problem; the state spent additional funds on the problem, bringing the
    total even higher. Another $33 billion was allocated on DEI, identity nonsense, climate fantasies, and intersectionality.

    For example, $38 million of taxpayer money was allocated by CaliforniarCOs Department of Industrial Relations to change the demographic makeup of
    the construction workforce using equity and non-binary inclusion as
    metrics. Among the programrCOs many generous benefits, each newly
    recruited non-binary construction apprentice can receive up to $10,000
    in direct stipends for childcare costs. ItrCOs shocking that any new construction workers wouldnrCOt identify as non-binary with that kind of incentive.

    This is part of rCLExpanding Registered Apprenticeship in California,rCY or rCLERiCArCY, a $25 million initiative doling out grants to promote rCLequity, inclusion, and accessrCY in the construction trades. Organizations are
    given tax dollars to hire DEI consultants and host workshops; one
    grantee, for instance, received $493,000 to design rCLinsight trainingrCY
    for workers, mandatory anti-harassment sessions to rCLdismantle barriersrCY and rCLfoster belonging.rCY Another group got paid to create rCLpeer ambassadorrCY programs, where people are hired to find more people to
    receive free taxpayer money.

    Yes, tax dollars are funding some CalifornianrCOs job, convincing
    non-binary individuals they belong in a construction apprenticeship.
    While other tax dollars are spent pulling the actual workers off jobs
    and into PowerPoints on microaggressions. CaliforniarCOs Department of
    Public Health spent nearly $40 million to help queer and transgender
    people stop smoking. I guess heterosexuals should just choke on their
    tobacco and die. Similarly, the same department spent $20 million on AlzheimerrCOs research, but only for LGBTQ cohorts.

    The list literally goes on and onrCa and we havenrCOt even scratched the surface of state Medicaid boondoggles, like transgender breast
    augmentation and feminizing surgeries, courtesy of the taxpayer. And yet
    every single one of these programs is completely legal. In fact, far
    from hiding in shame, California built a website to brag about how
    effectively they dole out this money.

    In Minnesota, the Somalis had to go through the trouble of setting up
    fake daycare facilities and phony autism clinics to get their hands on
    those federal dollars. In California, the state gives the money away to
    anyone who claims to be non-binary. But again, this isnrCOt just taking
    place in California. Or Minnesota. Fraud and graft are everywhere. And
    much of it is federally funded.

    There is absolutely no way you could argue there isnrCOt room for 10% cuts
    to the federal government, across the board. Think about it: $100
    billion in federal tax dollars handed over to just one state, and thatrCOs
    not even all the money California received, just the published grants. Multiply that by 50 states. Then add the money that stays at the federal level: Medicare billing fraud, Social Security checks going to dead
    people, wasteful defense spending, rampant welfare and food stamp fraud.

    I hope this gives DOGE a second wind. Maybe people will finally realize
    that Elon was right all along; he wasnrCOt exaggerating. If anything, he
    was understating the amount of fraud, waste, and abuse. Given the very
    public fraud cases that are now front-and-center, combined with the
    absurd chorus of politicians who are closing ranks and defending that
    very fraud, it should be plainly obvious that the federal government
    could cut its annual budget by AT LEAST 10% without any loss of service.

    Cutting 10% doesnrCOt mean you wonrCOt be able to get a passport, or that
    the FBI canrCOt catch criminals, or that the military wonrCOt be ready for war. WerCOre talking about a slight reduction in fraud and legal graft
    that serves no purpose beyond enriching political allies and justifying bureaucratic empires.

    To be fair, when the President hears about these things, he tries to
    shut down funding. And then he gets sued. Ultimately solving this
    problem will come down to Congress. They have to be willing to do this.
    And for the most part, they arenrCOt. Too many of their constituents and donors make money off this graft, and a portion of the funds end up as campaign contributions.

    If yourCOve ever wondered why Congress, which has an approval rating of
    less than 15%, somehow maintains a 90%+ re-election rate for incumbents,
    this is why. ItrCOs because of the fraud and the legal graft. ItrCOs not
    going to stop until the remaining legitimate voters make more
    responsible choices about who should be representing them in Congress.

    donors make money off this graft, and a portion of the funds end up as
    campaign contributions.

    If youAve ever wondered why Congress, which has an approval rating of
    less than 15%, somehow maintains a 90%+ re-election rate for incumbents,
    this is why. ItAs because of the fraud and the legal graft. ItAs not
    going to stop until the remaining legitimate voters make more
    responsible choices about who should be representing them in Congress.

    Of the $18 billion in federal funding that went to 14 Minnesota-run
    welfare programs since 2018, HALF of that total may have been complete
    and total fraud.

    This scandal is a case study in government incompetence. Over 90 people
    charged with bilking at least hundreds of millions from programs meant
    to feed low-income children, with much of the fraud centered in
    MinnesotarCOs Somali community. And those are just the ones that were
    prosecuted.

    And when some Minnesota officials finally tried to stop the fraud in
    2021, one of the programs, rCLFeeding Our FuturerCY, sued the state for
    racial discrimination. A Leftist judge ordered the payments to resume
    and held the Department of Education in contempt, fining them $47,500.
    Minnesota officials under Governor Tim WalzrCOs watch retaliated against >>> the whistleblowers and attempted to hide it all from federal investigators. >>>
    And I am so grateful to Tim Walz for all of this.

    Walz is such a corrupt buffoon, he thought people were too stupid or
    ambivalent to ever notice the massive fraud taking placerCa or to put the >>> pieces together and realize how the Left has imported countless migrants >>> into the country and showered them with taxpayer funds, all to keep
    their party in power. But taxpayers did notice. And they do care.

    The larger problem is that itrCOs not just Walz and Minnesota. And that
    outright fraud may be the smaller issue. rCLLegal graftrCY in America is a >>> far bigger problem, completely dwarfing the outright fraud.

    California, for example, has a state website listing thousands of
    government grants that have been awarded over the past few years
    totaling nearly $100 billion. This is taxpayer money, most of it coming
    from the federal government. And, unsurprisingly, the majority of this
    money has been squandered or funneled to leftist political groups.

    $25 billion was spent on programs for the homeless, averaging $133,629
    per homeless person. In theory that should have been enough to build
    each homeless person his/her own small, permanent dwelling. And yet
    California still has a massive homeless problem.

    Keep in mind, this is just federal grants going to CaliforniarCOs homeless >>> problem; the state spent additional funds on the problem, bringing the
    total even higher. Another $33 billion was allocated on DEI, identity
    nonsense, climate fantasies, and intersectionality.

    For example, $38 million of taxpayer money was allocated by CaliforniarCOs >>> Department of Industrial Relations to change the demographic makeup of
    the construction workforce using equity and non-binary inclusion as
    metrics. Among the programrCOs many generous benefits, each newly
    recruited non-binary construction apprentice can receive up to $10,000
    in direct stipends for childcare costs. ItrCOs shocking that any new
    construction workers wouldnrCOt identify as non-binary with that kind of >>> incentive.

    This is part of rCLExpanding Registered Apprenticeship in California,rCY or >>> rCLERiCArCY, a $25 million initiative doling out grants to promote rCLequity,
    inclusion, and accessrCY in the construction trades. Organizations are
    given tax dollars to hire DEI consultants and host workshops; one
    grantee, for instance, received $493,000 to design rCLinsight trainingrCY >>> for workers, mandatory anti-harassment sessions to rCLdismantle barriersrCY >>> and rCLfoster belonging.rCY Another group got paid to create rCLpeer
    ambassadorrCY programs, where people are hired to find more people to
    receive free taxpayer money.

    Yes, tax dollars are funding some CalifornianrCOs job, convincing non-
    binary individuals they belong in a construction apprenticeship. While
    other tax dollars are spent pulling the actual workers off jobs and into >>> PowerPoints on microaggressions. CaliforniarCOs Department of Public
    Health spent nearly $40 million to help queer and transgender people
    stop smoking. I guess heterosexuals should just choke on their tobacco
    and die. Similarly, the same department spent $20 million on AlzheimerrCOs >>> research, but only for LGBTQ cohorts.

    The list literally goes on and onrCa and we havenrCOt even scratched the >>> surface of state Medicaid boondoggles, like transgender breast
    augmentation and feminizing surgeries, courtesy of the taxpayer. And yet >>> every single one of these programs is completely legal. In fact, far
    from hiding in shame, California built a website to brag about how
    effectively they dole out this money.

    In Minnesota, the Somalis had to go through the trouble of setting up
    fake daycare facilities and phony autism clinics to get their hands on
    those federal dollars. In California, the state gives the money away to
    anyone who claims to be non-binary. But again, this isnrCOt just taking
    place in California. Or Minnesota. Fraud and graft are everywhere. And
    much of it is federally funded.

    There is absolutely no way you could argue there isnrCOt room for 10% cuts >>> to the federal government, across the board. Think about it: $100
    billion in federal tax dollars handed over to just one state, and thatrCOs >>> not even all the money California received, just the published grants.
    Multiply that by 50 states. Then add the money that stays at the federal >>> level: Medicare billing fraud, Social Security checks going to dead
    people, wasteful defense spending, rampant welfare and food stamp fraud. >>>
    I hope this gives DOGE a second wind. Maybe people will finally realize
    that Elon was right all along; he wasnrCOt exaggerating. If anything, he >>> was understating the amount of fraud, waste, and abuse. Given the very
    public fraud cases that are now front-and-center, combined with the
    absurd chorus of politicians who are closing ranks and defending that
    very fraud, it should be plainly obvious that the federal government
    could cut its annual budget by AT LEAST 10% without any loss of service. >>>
    Cutting 10% doesnrCOt mean you wonrCOt be able to get a passport, or that >>> the FBI canrCOt catch criminals, or that the military wonrCOt be ready for >>> war. WerCOre talking about a slight reduction in fraud and legal graft
    that serves no purpose beyond enriching political allies and justifying
    bureaucratic empires.

    To be fair, when the President hears about these things, he tries to
    shut down funding. And then he gets sued. Ultimately solving this
    problem will come down to Congress. They have to be willing to do this.
    And for the most part, they arenrCOt. Too many of their constituents and >>> donors make money off this graft, and a portion of the funds end up as
    campaign contributions.

    If yourCOve ever wondered why Congress, which has an approval rating of
