Investigations reveal "shockingly easy" theft in state programs for food, autism, and housing.

Here’s what you missed 👇

Read this if you’re tracking government oversight, the Walz administration, or massive taxpayer theft.

📍 What Just Happened

Minnesota is reeling from revelations of an "epidemic of fraud" that could surpass $2 billion. Investigators found that programs like "Feeding Our Future" and "Housing Stabilization Services" were siphoned by scammers using fake PDFs and fabricated addresses.

In some cases, officials were billing the state for autism therapy sessions that never happened, using the money to buy real estate in Kenya.

🕵️ The Investigation

• Fake Offices: Fox News Digital visited listed addresses for these charities only to find empty parking lots and nonexistent office suites.
• Feeding Our Future: This single case involved nearly $250 million in stolen federal funds meant for 91 million "ghost" meals.
• Housing Surge: A housing program meant to cost $2.6 million per year ballooned to $120 million before it was forcibly shut down.

✍️ Political Fallout

Former federal prosecutors and state senators claim that officials were too afraid to raise alarms due to "political sensitivities" surrounding the Somali community.

Whistleblowers allege that staff who raised concerns were ignored, reassigned, or even labeled as "racists."

🧠 Why It Matters

The scale of this fraud represents one of the largest systemic failures of state oversight in U.S. history.

It raises critical questions about how taxpayer money is protected and whether "social sensitivity" is being used as a shield by criminal organizations to exploit vulnerable populations.

🧾 The Bottom Line

Minnesota has become a national case study in government incompetence, where a lack of basic verification allowed billions to be stolen from children and the disabled. The scandal is now triggering calls for massive reform and high-level resignations across the state's social service departments.
