It was inconceivable to me that Kamala Harris would select Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate because of his record in office. His record as governor ranges from the horrible to the despicable. I made this point, by the way, before Harris selected Walz, in the July 30 Free Beacon column “Take my governor — please.”

In that column I wrote that Walz would never live down the frauds committed under the watch of the state agencies under his jurisdiction. Now CNN has taken up these frauds in the (necessarily long) story “As fraud scandals erupt in Minnesota on Gov. Tim Walz’s watch, accountability is in short supply.”

By far the most notorious of these is the Feeding Our Future case. It represents the single biggest COVID fraud uncovered in the United States to date. When it comes to COVID fraud, we’re number one. All together, 70 defendants have been charged. As of today, twenty-six or so have pleaded guilty.

The first of the cases to go to trial featured a large cast of seven defendants—the biggest criminal trial ever in federal court here. Five of the seven defendants were convicted. Two were acquitted. The remaining cases have yet to be tried.

Under the auspices of the Feeding Our Future nonprofit, defendants purported to dish out millions of meals to children and families. The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) administered the payout of some $250 million to reimburse mythical meals served around the state. The nature and scale of the fraud are staggering.

In guilty pleas taken on September 20, for example, one defendant “admitted that he falsely claimed to have provided more than 15 million meals, including 140,000 at a single site in Pelican Rapids in October 2021 alone. The town is home to about 2,500 people.”
