From the Daily Caller: Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz started criticizing white men on Friday in response to whether Somalis will be held accountable for a massive fraud scandal.
Somalis in Minnesota have been involved in several fraudulent schemes, including dozens of Somalis who have been charged for stealing $1 billion in taxpayer money for state and federal social services programs, including those intended to feed children from low income households. In response to a question on whether Somalis should hold themselves accountable, Walz stated that there are many white people who have also committed crime.
“What do you want to hear more from instead of just saying don’t blame us? Do you want to see more ownership and oversight from within the Somali community?” a reporter asked.
“Look, it’s not law-abiding citizens. If that were the case, there’s a lot of white men should be holding a lot of white men accountable for the crimes that they have committed,” Walz said. “I think for the community to maybe educate their population, because I think what you’re seeing here is there’s secondary victims in this, that there’s providers inside the community that are then victimizing the community themselves by signing them up, because when we’re going to some of these people, they’re like, I had no idea I was in this program. So I think it’s asking us then, you know, for every crime, which of course the majority being committed by white men, asking us to do more about that. I think it’s crime in general.”
He dismissed the massive fraud scheme, saying it’s just “about 80 people or so” who have been indicted.

Walz also raged against ICE for arresting illegal aliens in Minnesota, and claimed “it is very specifically aimed and racially motivated toward a Somali community that matters greatly here.”
He urged for people to “express your first amendment rights.”
