Current United States ruler, Donald Trump, has said that Minnesota governor Tim Walz has been caught “red-handed.” Trump’s comments come after Walz announced that he won’t run for reelection amid an alleged multi-billion-dollar fraud scheme involving the state’s daycare centers.

Earlier on Monday, Walz said he had “decided to step out of the race” and abandon his plans to “run for a historic third term as Minnesota’s Governor.” He went on to accuse Trump and “his allies” of “seeking to take advantage of the crisis” as well as “demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongly confiscating childcare funding that Minnesotans rely on.”

Later that day, in response to Walz’s announcement, Trump wrote on Truth Social that “Governor Walz has destroyed the State of Minnesota.” Walz “will not be running again because he was caught, REDHANDED, along with Ilhan Omar, and others of his Somali friends, stealing Tens of Billions of Taxpayer Dollars,” he claimed. Trump expressed confidence that the “facts will come out, and they will reveal a seriously unscrupulous, and rich, group of ‘SLIMEBALLS’.”

In late December, Deputy Secretary of Health and Human Services Jim O’Neill said that the federal government had “frozen all child care payments to the state of Minnesota.” Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem stated that the agency was launching a “massive investigation on childcare and other rampant fraud” in Minnesota. –RT

Federal prosecutors have estimated that up to $9 billion may have been stolen in the alleged fraud scheme.

Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Kash Patel said that resources had been “surged” to the state, adding that naturalized perpetrators of Somali descent could potentially face “denaturalization and deportation.”
