Fraud in your face, Minny

[JimmyinSD]

Honest question. Why is Walz still in office? How has he not resigned over this?

What i want to know is why doensnt anybody from MN seem upset that the POS is running their state into the ground and his plan is to leave MN once he's out as governor.   Like a rat bailing from the ship he caused to sink...he building his retirement home just across the state line in South Dakota.   He is a retarded turd,  I wish their was a way to prevent him from moving here.

As much as I didnt care for noem... I would take her 10 terms again over a minute of walz,  he is a fucking puke stain of an embarrassment for Minny.  I can't for the life of me understand how he ever got the democrat nomination.

It speaks volumes that Kamala Harris actually picked that clown as her running mate.  Obviously, I don’t vote Democratic ever, but he’s upper 10% in terms of buffoonery within that party.  I remember watching the debate against Vance and wondering how anyone ever voted for that guy.  He doesn’t give a shit at all about the fraud going on, he wants Democrats to own certain constituencies and couldn’t care less about others getting unknowingly screwed each and every day.

Wow! a shocker and this guy was making some real progress as of late uncovering the fraud too...

Sounds/smells like a purge to me? We'll find out in the next day or so I would imagine.

Mass resignation at Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office stems from Renee Good shooting

At least six attorneys have left the U.S. Attorney’s Office, including Joe Thompson, who took the lead in prosecuting fraud in state government programs.

“It has been an honor and a privilege to represent the United States and this office,” Thompson wrote in an email obtained by the Minnesota Star Tribune. He did not give any reason for his resignation or indication of where he is going next.

He did not respond to initial requests for comment.

Thompson’s resignation was followed by other senior members of the office, including Assistant U.S. Attorney Harry Jacobs, chief of the criminal division and second in command on fraud cases. Jacobs was instrumental in prosecuting the Feeding Our Future trial and was part of the team prosecuting Vance Boelter for his alleged politically motivated rampage.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Melinda Williams, former criminal chief and current counsel to the U.S. Attorney, is also among the departures. Thompson, Jacobs and Williams represent the top three ranking prosecutors in the office. A source familiar with the resignations said six attorneys have left the office, so far.

The departures come after an internal email was recently sent by Minnesota U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen. He directed prosecutors to “say nothing” about the FBI’s investigation into the killing of Renee Good by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, specifically to law enforcement and media. Only assistant U.S. Attorneys designated by him may speak to investigators about the federal probe, he wrote.

“The shooting investigation is highly sensitive,” Rosen wrote. “It has been the subject of continuing inflammatory statements by state and local elected officials.”

The resignations in Minnesota come on the same day that multiple media outlets reported a wave of resignations by career prosecutors inside the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. That office recently learned there would not be a civil rights investigation into Good’s killing.

The Justice Department’s civil rights division saw another mass exodus of attorneys last year after the Trump administration shifted the department’s longstanding mission of protecting constitutional rights of marginalized communities. In May of 2025, attorneys for the DOJ moved to dismiss the long-awaited federal consent decree over Minneapolis police, mandating sweeping reforms after the murder of George Floyd.

Thompson covered several other high-profile cases during his brief tenure, including filing federal charges against Boelter in the assassination of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, and attempted killing of Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette.

But Thompson has been most notable for uncovering fraud throughout the state. “Our state is far and away the leader in fraud now, and everyone sees it,” Thompson told the Minnesota Star Tribune Editorial Board last year. He has claimed that the fraud is in the billions — a number that has been contested by Walz.

Thompson has been considered a potential political candidate and is rumored to be a candidate for a new position with the Department of Justice that would oversee a multiagency effort to investigate fraud in the United States.

A justice department spokesperson confirmed the resignations in a statement to the Guardian but denied they were related to the Minneapolis shooting.

From DOJ:  
“Although we typically don’t comment on personnel matters, we can confirm that the criminal section leadership gave notice to depart the civil rights division and requested to participate in the Department of Justice’s early retirement program well before the events in Minnesota,” the statement said.

“Any suggestion to the contrary is false.”

So...the guy who was temporarily placed in charge and subsequently replaced permanently in October is leaving following successful prosecution of the Fraud...Part 1 is leaving his post. 

The other attorneys were in the Civil Rights Division...I'm guessing they're now playing the race card angle for the on-going fraud investigation.  Here's their charter according to the DOJ:

"The U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division (CRD) enforces federal laws protecting individuals from discrimination based on race, color, sex, disability, religion, national origin, and familial status, working to uphold constitutional rights in areas like voting, employment, housing, education, and public accommodations. Its tasks include investigating discrimination, initiating legal action, prosecuting criminal civil rights violations (like hate crimes and police misconduct), and overseeing compliance with civil rights regulations across federal agencies"

You really think they were the ones to assist in the Goode case?

All of this came from an unsourced New York Times story.  No comments from Joe Thompson but if the Times can write it...it must be true.

Rosen is losing my trust with each passing day. But I agree, this is a situation that has to play out some so we can get a clear picture of the what/why/how...Everyone is going to try and spin it a million ways in the interim.

Dont know if its true or not,  but read earlier that mayor Freys wife is a lawyer and her firm works for some of the fraudulent companies doing legal work as well as political lobbying.  Makes me wonder if the Somalis are just the patsies and if all this wasn't more than a DNC scheme.

I believe that statement release is from resignations in dc and not mn…it’s looking more and more like the fed resignations in MN were due to instructions to go after goodes wife and Goode as well.. time will tell.  I don’t know for sure if that’s right or not yet.
