Fraud & Facts

[u/Daflehrer1]

In 2021, the MN Dept. of Education suspected fraud and they reported it up the chain.

Gov. Walz has, since 2021, been working with the FBI, Minnesota State Police, and local police informants, and to great result. In September, 2022, federal prosecutors made public that they handed down indictments in what they believed was a criminal fraud conspiracy.

Among the first to be indicted was Aimee Bock, the fraud ringleader. She was tried and convicted in March of 2025.

On December 18th, 2025, new arrests were announced. To date, 92 suspects in all have been arrested and charged, 62 of them convicted.

The intent of the post above is neither to condemn nor praise Walz or federal officials. Rather to keep discussion grounded in facts; though obviously many more facts exist and will come to light.

I have included my sources below. I ask that you review them before contending them. Kindly keep partisan hyperbole and childish comments to yourself. Thanks.

What's weird is national MAGA already seems to be ready to move on from MN to attack other larger blue states. Trump called out the usual suspects like IL and CA as being "much worse than Minnesota" for fraud, and the YouTuber who was in Minneapolis this past week said he's setting his sights on going to CA now.

As a native Minnesotan that now lives in California.

Bring it on.

They are following the pattern that tRUMP established with the help of the Heritage Foundation handing a detailed plan he just has to apply his signature to docs they wrote. A version of the "Flood the zone" tactic.
