Tim Walz watched Minnesota burn through $9 billion in fraudulent welfare payments.
Now Republicans have the receipts proving it was all part of a plan.
And James Comer just exposed the Democrats' blue state welfare fraud scheme that could flip Congress.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Drops Bombshell on Democrat Strategy
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer didn’t hold back about the blue state fraud scandals.
"No question. One hundred percent, this was a coordinated effort to get more Democrat voters into these states," Comer told Just the News.
The Kentucky Republican rattled off statistics from his committee's investigation.
In Minnesota, 86% of Somali immigrants are on Medicaid, food stamps, housing assistance, transportation subsidies, and daycare benefits.
That's a Democrat political machine running on taxpayer dollars.
Federal prosecutors say half of Minnesota's $18 billion welfare budget vanished into fraud schemes over recent years.
Democrats controlled every lever of power in Minnesota and did absolutely nothing to stop it.
State Workers Have Affidavits Proving Walz Knew About The Fraud
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer just dropped evidence that blows up Tim Walz's entire defense.
Minnesota state workers have signed affidavits saying they warned Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison about the welfare fraud.
Nothing happened.
"These guys are crooks," Emmer said on the John Solomon Reports podcast.
"The whole thing is a powder keg that has been allowed to exist for years by Democrats, who benefit off of corruption."
Walz claims he didn't know anything about billions in welfare fraud happening right under his nose.
The affidavits prove he's lying.
Hundreds of FBI and Homeland Security Investigation agents are now scouring Minnesota looking for evidence of what Walz knew and when he knew it.
Senate Republicans Trace The Money Trail Back To Church Charities
Senator Rand Paul chairs the Senate Homeland Security Committee and he's following the money.
Church-based nonprofits like the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Catholic Relief Services, and the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society grabbed billions in taxpayer money from Biden.
They used that cash to shuttle illegal aliens from the southern border to blue sanctuary cities.
Then these same charities signed up the migrants for welfare programs instead of supporting them with their own donations.
"It's charitable to give your own money," Paul told Just the News.
"It's not charitable to take someone else's money."
"It's not just welfare dependency. It's actually a scam, and they're stealing the money."
Paul introduced legislation forcing these charities to actually support the people they sponsor instead of dumping them onto welfare rolls.
Trump Orders California Investigation After State Auditor Confirms Massive Fraud Risk
President Trump just opened investigations into California, New York, and Illinois welfare programs.
"California, under Governor Gavin Newscum, is more corrupt than Minnesota, if that's possible??? The Fraud Investigation of California has begun," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The California state auditor handed Trump the evidence he needed last month.
California's Department of Social Services now carries a "high risk" designation for fraud.
The state's CalFresh food program faces losing $2.5 billion annually in federal funding because fraud rates are so astronomical.
Trump's Department of Health and Human Services already froze $10 billion in federal funds over child care fraud concerns.
Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins is considering cutting off food stamp money to states that refuse to crack down on fraud.
A Democrat-appointed judge blocked the Minnesota cutoff, triggering an angry response from Rollins.
"This isn't about helping those in need. It's about liberal judges protecting fraud and refusing transparency."
Democrats Reversed Trump's Census Rules Then Opened The Border
Republicans are connecting the dots on the Democrat scheme.
Biden reversed Trump's executive orders requiring citizenship questions on the census.
Illegal aliens would now be counted for congressional apportionment and federal funding formulas.
Biden opened the southern border.
Millions of illegal aliens flooded into the country.
Liberal nonprofits moved them from red border states to blue sanctuary cities in battleground states.
The illegal aliens got signed up for welfare programs while Democrats looked the other way on fraud.
Blue states get more congressional seats, more federal funding, and permanent Democrat voting blocs—all paid for by American taxpayers.
The Federalist called this fraud "a feature of what we might call The Blue Model of government."
"Fueled by the welfare state and increasingly open borders, it is at core about political patronage, profiteering, and plunder."
Comer says the stolen welfare money is funding Democrat candidates.
"Not only do they vote, they now contribute a lot of money to Democratic candidates," Comer said about Minnesota's Somali population.
"And I think a source of this money is probably a lot of these fraudulent schemes taking place."
Democrats spent years calling anyone who questioned this arrangement a bigot.
Now the receipts are piling up proving it was a coordinated scheme all along.
