Following the national exposure of mass fraud in Minnesota, many conservatives have demanded that the corrupt politicians be held responsible and accountable for ripping off taxpayers. While corrupt politicians almost never face justice, we may see a different outcome this time. During a House Oversight Committee meeting today (1/7/26) U.S. Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (FL-13) introduced criminal referrals for Tim Walz and Keith Ellison to the Dept. of Justice. See video below:

Based on testimony today, I have enough evidence to believe both @GovTimWalz and @keithellison were knowingly complicit in a Somali fraud scheme in Minnesota.

Therefore I have referred them BOTH to the DOJ for criminal charges. May justice be swift. The American people are tired… pic.twitter.com/aEWM89vTj4

— Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (@RepLuna) January 7, 2026

Congresswoman Luna is seeking to hold Walz and Ellison to account for the Feeding Our Future scam that robbed taxpayers of hundreds of millions in tax dollars. Luna explains how fraud was well-known in this case but Walz and Ellison looked the other way and continued payments. Luna also references the leaked audio of Keith Ellison speaking with Feeding Our Future fraudsters and protecting them as political donors.

Luna references U.S. Code 371 in the video and argues this law was violated by Walz and Ellison, see statute below:

Conservatives are likely hoping that this is not just talk, they want action! From Dr. Fauci to Hillary Clinton to James Comey, there are all kinds of political crooks that need to be held accountable by President Trump! Too often legislative committees are WWE performances for partisan ends. Instead of explaining how the battle is truly between “Grassroots vs. Establishment” or “Right vs. Wrong”, partisan hacks try to trap people in the mindset of “Republican vs. Democrat”. 

The Establishment Uniparty is responsible for MN fraud which includes all of the Democrats and most of the Republican legislators. As seen in the 2025 A4L scorecard, the vast majority of Republicans FAILED because they were voting FOR the fraud-ridden omnibus budget bills that caused this whole mess! Committee testifiers Kristin Robbins, Marion Rarick, and Walter Hudson have all voted for corrupt, unconstitutional, fraud-inducing omnibus bills proving that they have ZERO credibility in fighting fraud.

Walz and Ellison have been scheduled to appear before the U.S. House Oversight Committee on February 10th, 2026, and will have to answer for their protection of Somali fraudsters.

Action 4 Liberty demands crooked politicians be held accountable no matter what party they belong to and Congresswoman Luna is taking a major step to see that through! Walz and Ellison are complicit in MN’s fraud epidemic and their criminal references may amount to federal criminal charges if President Trump’s DOJ finds there to be sufficient evidence. With their corrupt, fraud-ridden political histories, these criminal references may just be the start! A4L will keep Patriots up to date with the latest.

Tim Walz has turned Minnesota into a national embarrassment responsible for spending billions upon billions in tax dollars to fund Somali fraudsters. The more light that was shined onto this story, the more it became obvious that Walz, Keith Ellison, and other Democrats allowed this fraud to go on since it benefited one of their voting bases. In some cases, the very fraudsters receiving the tax funded fraud money were funding the Democrat’s campaigns!

Political pressure from President Trump’s Administration, Youtuber Nick Shirley’s viral investigation, and on-the-ground activists has become too much for Walz to handle! Walz is scandal-ridden and has been exposed as a habitual liar who incompetently led our state toward disaster. From being a Covid tyrant to a gun-grabber to a surplus spender to a fraudster, Walz failed Minnesota and was one of the reasons he and Kamala lost to President Trump and VP J.D. Vance in a landslide in 2024.

Walz has likely seen internal polling showing he would lose to the GOP and was also likely pressured by high-level Democrats to get out of the race. In addition to seeking reelection while being deeply unpopular, Walz was also attempting to become the first Governor in MN history to win a third consecutive term. Meanwhile, a massive field of GOP candidates were licking their chops to take Walz out.

Walz is a fake tough guy who said he could code-talk to white guys and could beat up MAGA supporters. Now, it appears he isn’t tough enough to stand up to criticism! He is abandoning the Somali fraudsters he pledged to protect from the Trump Admin! That is a major sign of weakness from Walz! 

Walz ending his reelection campaign should be taken as an admission of guilt. He knows in his heart of hearts that he is responsible for overseeing mass fraud and that he has failed the state in everything he’s touched. Walz did not want to face rejection from the people so he just gave up instead.

In a press conference at the capitol today (Mon. Dec. 5th) where he ran away from questions from the press. Those interested in listening to Walz’ lie-ridden, nonsensical, Republican-blaming, and irrational revisionist history can see his entire press conference here.

Two major names have been reported as potential replacements for Walz: SOS Steve Simon and U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar. Either way, the Democrats are still the party of FRAUD!

Simon refuses to give the Trump Administration the requested voter data, proving that he is afraid of transparency in our elections. Simon championed illegal aliens getting drivers licenses and has done more than any previous SOS to make MN elections less secure. Simon also unconstitutionally put a foreign born individual on the ballot for President in MN in 2024 and admitted the candidate should be removed once sued but the liberal MN Supreme Court protected the candidate from removal. At the beginning of the 2025 MN legislative session, Simon illegitimately asserted himself as the presiding officer and refused to allow the GOP to complete legislative work while Democrat legislators no-showed.

Career politician Amy Klobuchar also faces a FEC complaint due to apparent violations of campaign finance laws. Klobuchar’s campaign is accused of having violated laws by laundering money in a process called “smurfing”. In total, this exceeds over $9.6M according to complaint filer Peter Bernegger! ActBlue has become known for fraudulent donations as seen by Project Veritas. As the complaint moves forward, Klobuchar will learn she is not exempt from exposure of her corruption. Flannel-wearing fraudsters are nothing new to MN voters and Shaky Amy may be the Democrat's only hope to keep it in their control.

Klobuchar appears to be the most likely Democrat candidate and she may be as unimpressive as Walz! Shaky Amy is a fake moderate, career politician (over 26 years in elected office) who became known to the nation as the fake moderate with anger issues who was nervously shaking uncontrollably during a Democratic Presidential primary debate (which was even mocked by Saturday Night Live) and looked like a fool for not knowing who the President of Mexico was. Klobuchar will not be a shoe-in for the primary or general elections, she had her worst statewide performance yet against Republican Royce White in 2024 and she will likely face left wing opposition for her letting Derek Chauvin off the hook while she was Hennepin County prosecutor (among a number of other issues). Klobuchar also tried to become Biden's running mate but was rejected for being white.

Some are speculating that Klobuchar may appoint Walz to fill the U.S. Senate seat she would be vacating. Walz is already a fragile mess who is scared of President Trump being over 1,000 miles away so it seems unlikely that he would have the guts to attack Trump in the same city as the President. Klobuchar will likely be asked to name who she would appoint to that seat ahead of the election and Citizens must demand that info.

Political pressure took Walz out and him running scared proves that. Political pressure is the best tool the Grassroots has to hold corrupt politicians accountable. When wielded effectively, political pressure can change everything! It seems clear now that A4L’s ultra-popular state fair booth was effective in rallying conservatives in holding Walz accountable. See below:

A4L built a movement of hundreds of thousands strong against Walz' illegal Covid lockdowns and forced him to end his unconstitutional Emergency Powers. We have exposed Walz' radical agenda of post-birth abortion, transgender child mutilation, protection of pedophiles in the MN Human Rights Act, and confiscating massive budget surpluses. All along the way, A4L has had to also fight back against the RINO Establishment instead of them joining in the grassroots fight against Walz!

President Trump took to Truth Social to celebrate the news of Walz dropping out and even suggests Walz may leave office before his term is finished! See below:

A4L will continue bringing Patriots cutting-edge news that they cannot get anywhere else. Conservatives in MN are rightfully rejoicing at their victory today and preparing for the battles that lie ahead. A4L will never waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation.

The Minnesota GOP Governor race keeps getting more and more crowded! Now self-proclaimed thumb-twiddler, do-nothing RINO state Rep. Peggy Bennett (23A) is running! This brings the GOP field to over 15 Republican candidates, highlighting that Tim Walz is a weakened opponent that many believe can be defeated due to the massive fraud scandal he has overseen.

Bennett has been in the MN State House for over a decade and has a pathetic lifetime score in A4L scorecards of 48.65% and a 2025 score of 45.83%. This means that on the most critical votes of our state, Bennett will vote for the liberal, big government position over half of the time!

In the 2025 legislative session, Bennett voted for all kinds of crony, big government omnibus bills. This includes an education spending bill that gave $2 Million for a DEI office, the state govt. Spending bill that gave Keith Ellison a bigger budget & gave millions to fund a LGBTQIA2S+ Council, a $700 Million bonding bill that indebts our state, the higher education policy & spending bill that gives millions upon millions to woke colleges/universities and funds race-based anti-white scholarships, voting against the Never Again Bill, and an education policy bill that mandates American Indians can beat drums at graduation & imposes new regulations on private, charter, and home schools & even undermined President Trump’s executive order proclaiming English as our nation’s official language.

In addition, Bennett voted for the House Rules package which effectively recognized the Democrat’s illegitimate, closed door swearing-in ceremony and blocked the GOP from revoking radical Democrat Brad Tabke’s election certificate despite more ballots being trashed in the district than what the margin of victory was (21 ballots trashed and race was decided by 14 votes). Bennett’s vote ensured the GOP would not have a majority of the House and gave serious leverage to the Democrats. If you don’t fight election fraud, you have no credibility in fighting Walz’ Fraud Regime!

When the MN Supreme Court issued a bogus ruling that required 68 votes to move legislation or motions, Bennett immediately raised the white flag! The court lacked a formal writ and broke from over 160 years of MN precedent. As seen in previous A4L reporting, legislation has passed in the House with only 67 votes! Instead of fighting on and maintaining the quorum fight, Bennett took to social media to say that she and other Republicans will have to “sit around and twiddle our thumbs while we wait for our colleagues”. This perfectly shows that Bennett is NOT a fighter for conservative principles, she is a career politician who’s been sitting on her hands for YEARS while our state has been destroyed! See below:

As seen on Bennett’s campaign website, she asks why Republicans can’t get anything done. The answer is clear, it's because of big government RINOs like her! She’s too busy twiddling her thumbs to fight back! See below:

Bennett’s late entry into the Governor race will likely be met with minimal support since it is unlikely she can whip together an effective caucus turnout plan. Some believe that she is fearful of the GOP losing the state House in 2026 and does not want to be in the minority again. Peggy Bennett getting into the Governor race is likely an ego-driven decision since there are plenty of Establishment RINOs that are already in the race. Though Bennett has an awful legislative record, it is likely not as bad as Neocon Nikki lover Kristin Robbins, Lisa Demuth’s pathetic 20.83% score in the 2025 A4L Scorecard, Chris Madel’s massive donations to Democrats, or Scott Jensen berating Republicans for conservative positions on abortion and transgender child mutilations.

Action 4 Liberty will continue keeping Patriots informed and up to date on the latest in MN politics. The Governor race will continue to get national attention as Walz becomes more and more exposed as a fraud, pathological liar, and retard. A4L will never waiver in our fight to protect liberty for the next generation.

The hits keep coming in Minnesota from Nick Shirley! A 23 year old Youtuber has done more to expose fraud in MN than the House Fraud Committee after his viral video uncovered the numerous fraudulent Somali “day care centers”. Naturally, RINO politicians rushed to take credit for Shirley’s work. Social media-addict Walter Hudson used A.I. to pretend he did the investigative work and Lisa Demuth claims she worked with Shirley on his research. Now Nick Shirley is setting the record straight: Lisa Demuth did NOTHING for him!

On X, Nick Shirley says that Lisa Demuth is lying to bolster her Governor campaign and has already garnered over half a million views on the post! See below:

RINO Mary Franson is even getting in on the action and is seemingly throwing Demuth under the bus in the replies:

This may be the dumbest move ever made by Demuth, she lied to prop herself up and take credit for work she had nothing to do with! Nick Shirley swatting down Demuth’s lies is a reminder that both parties must be held accountable for allowing Walz’ Fraud Regime to go on as it has. If Demuth had helped Shirley, of course he would admit it! As seen in the viral video, his source was a regular Minnesotan who simply called himself “David”. 

Keep in mind, as Speaker, Lisa Demuth voted for EVERY SINGLE bill that Walz signed. Every budget bill, every policy bill, every omnibus bill, and everything in between. Lisa Demuth worked with Tim Walz behind closed doors to craft the 2nd LARGEST budget in MN history. Under Empty Suit Lisa “Kamala” Demuth’s so-called leadership, the House GOP introduced the 666 budget (totaling $66.6B) while Walz and Dems pushed a slightly smaller budget. She would complain about child care fraud and then fully fund it! She voted for the bill that sent MN tax dollars to fund Somali terrorist group Al-Shabaab!

Lisa Demuth has failed conservatives from the jump. When the session started, she cut a deal with Democrats to seat radical leftist Brad Tabke despite 21 ballots being trashed in his race decided by just 14 votes. This means Lisa Demuth (and all Republicans aside from Reps. Tom Dippel and Drew Roach) voted to certify Democrat ELECTION FRAUD as their first order of business! In exchange, the House GOP created the useless Fraud Committee that does not have subpoena power or require legislation to move through it. The committee has served no purpose beyond RINOs having a committee to blow hot air and pretend to fight.

Demuth funded ALL of the fraud of 2025, she voted for every single one of the Democrat spending bills! As seen in the 2025 A4L scorecard, she scored a pathetic 20.83% for the latest legislative session! This means on the most critical votes, Demuth votes for the liberal, big government position nearly 80% of the time!

Lisa Demuth’s corrupt legislative record and attempt to steal the spotlight from Nick Shirley is indicative of her ridiculous Governor campaign. Demuth has backstabbed conservatives at nearly every turn and gave Walz all the money he needed to continue his Fraud Regime. Demuth has zero credibility, she’s Tim Walz’ fishing buddy, not a political opponent! See below:

Sources at the Capitol tell A4L that GOP House members or staff perhaps assisted Shirley’s source, David, in research but we have been given no concrete details. We cannot confirm or deny whatever role RINO politicians may have had in David’s research that contributed to Shirley’s on the ground investigations.

Conservative firebrand Mike Lindell took to X to tell Shirley that he is also in the race and is running against Demuth. See below:

Action 4 Liberty has exposed child care fraud for nearly a decade and has been the consistent voice demanding the size and scope of government be shrunk. A4L has called out the Dems and RINOs who funded fraud and remains the megaphone for grassroots conservatives. Props to Nick Shirley for refusing to allow scam-artist politicians like Lisa Demuth to take credit for his investigative work! 

NOTE: Since publishing, Demuth and Shirley have each put out statements. In Shirley's response, he again says he had no prior knowledge of Demuth but is glad the information he and David gathered was publicly available. Government officials responding to emails is the bare minimum expectation of government and is not truly assisting an investigation like Demuth said. While Shirley's response played nice with Demuth, she clearly had to put her foot in her mouth after exaggerating her role in Shirley's work.

In northern Minnesota, one business owner has had ENOUGH with over-taxation and the state government wasting away his hard-earned money on fraud. Michael Vail of Waubun, MN is the owner of Cedar Sense. The company builds and sells saunas & furnature and appears to make well-crafted products. In a Facebook video, Michael Vail spoke for millions of fed-up taxpayers by calling for a tax revolt.

Minnesota has become the laughing stock of the country as estimates of fraud total nearly $9 Billion. Feeding Our Future, fake daycares, and autism center scams are just scratching the surface of the waste, fraud, and abuse of our state. RINOs proved themselves incapable of defending the will of taxpayers in the previous legislative session after Lisa Demuth and other GOP legislators passed the 2nd LARGEST budget in MN history after cutting a closed door deal with Walz and Democrats behind closed doors.

As Michael Vail explains in his video, the rampant fraud has gone unchecked and taxpayers can no longer trust the government to wisely spend their money. In addition, Vail explained how the tax burden is so heavy in MN and that he has considered closing his business many times. MN has become unaffordable and the main cause of this is taxation. Click below to see Vail’s video:

Vail calls for a tax revolt and calls on others to join him in refusing to pay taxes. Vail says Walz can go ahead and arrest him but the state will not get one more penny of his money until Tim Walz is out of office. Vail also reminds Minnesotans that our founding fathers revolted against the British for a low tax on tea, proving just how complacent many have become.

The power of the purse belongs to the citizenry. The Government works for We The People, not the other way around. Politicians have failed to represent the interests of taxpayers and many more may choose to take the same path Michael Vail is charting.

Action 4 Liberty will never waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation. Liberty is not protected when politicians allow massive fraud to be funded with your money. The Manhattan Institute proving MN tax dollars funded Somali terrorist group Al-Shabaab and Nick Shirley’s reporting on the widespread Somali fraud in MN has made many Minnesotans question why they’re paying taxes at all.

The crowded GOP field in the MN Governor race shows that there is a wide variety of Republicans (or at least candidates that claim to be Republicans) that see Tim Walz as a weak opponent who can be beaten. With Walz losing support each day due to the massive fraud he oversaw, the GOP has an opportunity to flip the seat and prevent Walz from getting an unprecedented third term. However, the GOP can only win if they can motivate the over 1.5M MN Trump voters to vote in the 2026 midterms.

One candidate who has begun making a name for himself in the campaign is attorney Chris Madel. As seen in previous A4L reporting, Madel is a big time Democrat donor who has given massive amounts of money to Joe Biden, Tim Walz, Amy Klobuchar, Angie Craig, John Kerry, and other leftists (as seen in FEC and CFB donor searches). Since our reporting preceded Madel’s campaign announcement, Madel felt the need to address the donations during his campaign launch.

As seen in previous A4L reporting, Madel admitted during his campaign launch that he donated to Democrats to free his legal clients (sounds like a pay to play scheme). Our system of justice should have court cases decided based on their merit, NOT if some Democrat politician pulls the prosecutor or judge’s strings as a favor to a lawyer who donated to them. 

Madel has now gone a step further by trying to explain away his Democrat donations by arguing it was to help his legal cases in deep-blue Hennepin and Ramsey counties and even tried to compare himself to President Trump. The issue with that: Madel donated to Joe Biden in 2020 and 2024 (2024 money transferred to Kamala/Walz campaign) and also funded Amy Klobuchar’s presidential campaigns! How would donating to Joe Biden help Madel win legal cases? This is not a Trump supporter playing the system, this is a Democrat donor playing Trump supporters! See video below:

Like President Trump, before I ran for office I gave money to both Democrats and Republicans. I operate in an area controlled by Democrats and the donations helped advance my clients’ interests. I have zero apologies for doing what it takes to help my clients.

But many of my… pic.twitter.com/XqycCPpPLg

— Madel for Governor (@MadelForGov) December 29, 2025

According to Democrat donor Chris Madel, if you attack him for his tens of thousands he’s donated to Democrats, you are either a keyboard warrior who should move out of their mom’s basement or you are a “winner in name only”. As a Democrat donor, it makes sense that Madel cannot understand why principled conservatives would be skeptical of someone who bankrolled the opposition. Madel does not understand how a conservative thinks because he is not one. Anyone that doesn’t see red flags in a Tim Walz donor ($5,500 in total) as the GOP opponent to Walz is out of their mind. Additionally, Madel's excuse of proximity falls flat when realizing he's donated to national Dems like Joe Biden and Maryland Congressman TDS-lunatic/Jan. 6 Committee member Jamie Raskin in 2023. What excuse could he possibly have for THAT donation?!?

Madel argues that his legal wins prove his leadership abilities, but if he only won those cases thanks to donating to Democrats, is that really something to brag about? He highlights his support of MPPOA, a pro-gun control group that honors drunk driving Democrats and swing district leftist legislators. The MPPOA recently lost (effective Dec. 31st, 2025) the support/backing of the Law Enforcement Labor Services (LELS), the MN State Patrol Troopers Association (MSPTA), and the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Agents Association (BCAAA) which means the MPPOA’s biggest contractors are no longer satisfied with their lobbying. The MPPOA has failed to represent rank-and-file police officers and became a part of the St. Paul swamp that conservatives despise.

Madel’s giant ego has convinced him that he is the only candidate who is capable of winning despite never winning any political position before. While Madel attempts to appear tough, he just comes across angry and talking down to America First voters. Madel’s frustrations with grassroots conservatives could instead be redirected to the corrupt Establishment that has destroyed our state. 

As seen in previous A4L reporting, Chris Madel (and Scott Jensen) did correctly call out the Republican-controlled House Fraud Committee for their ineffectiveness in taking on the Walz fraud regime. Madel has also quickly gathered support for his campaign and likely finds himself in the middle of the pack as far as support goes. Madel’s legal career and connection to Alpha News appeals to certain voters and it does not appear he plans to abide by the party endorsement.

Action 4 Liberty will continue to stand firm on conservative principles and lead the liberty loving grassroots movement in MN. A4L continues to gain ground with support growing. We will continue to keep Patriots up to date with the latest in the MN Governor race and will not waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation. 

When Itasca County Commissioners attempted to raise property taxes by nearly 10%, A4L sounded the alarm and Patriots across Itasca answered the call. Over 150 concerned citizens attended the Commissioner meeting and spoke out against the ridiculous tax hike. Due to grassroots pressure on the commissioners, the tax hike was nearly slashed in half to a 5.16% property tax increase.

While most Itasca citizens are still unhappy with the tax increase, they know that it would have been even worse if they did not get involved. One of the mechanisms used by the commissioners to lower the proposed tax levy was to freeze county employee salaries. This salary freeze was introduced by Commissioner John Johnson and passed in a 4-1 vote with Commissioner Terry Snyder voting no out of fear it would not stand legally. Now, we see that issue come to bear and  the perpetrator is not an outside source but rather one of Itasca County government’s own!

Itasca’s County Attorney, Jacob Fauchald, is suing the County Commissioners in order to BLOCK the salary freeze which would increase the tax levy! See below:

By removing the county’s salary freeze, the tax hike will be bumped up about 0.6% according to previous numbers mentioned by Commissioners (bringing the property tax hike back to a roughly 5.75% increase). Itasca residents have long been overtaxed with property taxes continually going up. Itasca seniors testified how they may lose their homes over the rising tax burden placed on them. Tax hikes are facing mass opposition yet Jacob Fauchald wants more of their hard-earned money.

Fauchald has never been elected to the role he now holds. In fact, Fauchald is only the Itasca Attorney because of Action 4 Liberty's and grassroots Itascans' efforts! After the then incumbent Itasca Attorney (Matti Adam) was appointed to a 9th Judicial District vacancy position by Tim Walz, the Itasca Commissioners attempted to appoint a greedy, carpet-bagging Keith Ellison puppet in the position. A4L sounded the alarm and exposed the lawyer, James Austad, for his endorsement and employment of Keith Ellison. Austad was even demanding a $25K salary increase in order to take the job!

Due to grassroots pressure at a June 11th, 2024 county commissioner meeting, Austad withdrew his name from nomination. In his place was Itasca Assistant County Attorney, Jacob Fauchald, who received the appointment shortly thereafter. Fauchald's initial salary was $140,000 but it was raised to $145,600 by a vote of the county commissioners, which is smaller than his predecessor’s salary ($154,277).

The decision by Fauchald to sue the Commissioners is stabbing Itasca citizens in the back. He holds the Attorney position because Itasca citizens stood up to the ANTIFA Keith nominee being shoved down their throats. Austad’s demands for a salary increase epitomized the issue with his nomination and it appears Fauchald has learned nothing from it.

During the tax hike commissioner meeting, several Itasca citizens noted how many Itasca government jobs were paying significantly more than other counties and how out of step salaries were with market rates. The least one could expect if employees are overpaid is a salary freeze, it at least keeps things at base level!

Fauchald has been accused by Itasca locals of intentionally mishandling rape cases and the prosecution against CD8 Dem Chair Cyndy Martin for her alleged drunk driving causing the death/hit-and-run of a 19 year old young man just outside of Nashwauk on the night of July 3rd, 2024. Fauchald has also seemingly expressed disdain at local citizens who attempt to serve him and Commissioners with lawsuits during meetings.

Jacob Fauchald is younger than most MN County Attorneys but youth is no excuse for actions like this. Citizens of Itasca can demand Fauchald drop the lawsuit to prevent sky-high property taxes from costing taxpayers even more. Since Fauchald is only in office due to grassroots opposition to liberal politicians, policy, and spending, he should be representing the interests of the grassroots. Until he is elected on his own merits with his own agenda, his agenda must be the People’s agenda. In this case, the People’s agenda is lower taxes.

Itasca residents can contact Jacob Fauchald and demand he withdraw his salary increase lawsuit immediately:

Action 4 Liberty will keep Patriots up to date and will always represent the grassroots conservative movement of MN. Itasca residents are struggling with high taxes and expect their County Attorney to fight for them, not against them. 

On Monday, Dec. 29th, Republican Senators Nathan Wesenberg (SD10) and Bill Lieske (SD58) along with Representatives Drew Roach (58B), Marj Fogleman (21B), and Mike Weiner (5B) have put out a joint statement demanding Tim Walz resign as Governor.

Minnesota has become the laughing stock of the country due to some estimates of fraud totaling nearly $9 BILLION. Rampant fraud is out of control and taxpayers have been taken advantage of, largely by non-assimilating Somali migrants. From feeding Our Future to daycares to autism centers, Minnesota taxpayers have been funding shell companies owned by Somalis that actually take care of ZERO children.

While many legislators have sat on their hands and done nothing to fight back against Democrat-run fraud, the mentioned conservative legislators are ready to take action. See joint press release below:

As seen in the 2025 A4L scorecard, each of the legislators writing this letter generally vote for the conservative position and none have a failing score. A4L previously reported how Rep. Marj Fogleman and other legislators misrepresented the state’s surplus and their use of faulty Establishment logic. Though it appears no correction has been offered by Fogleman, the joint letter she signed onto is a step in the right direction and shows she is distinguishing herself from the RINO Establishment.

It is incredible that the vast majority of Republicans are NOT on this joint letter, slamming Tim Walz for his corruption should be a unifying issue in the GOP. Unfortunately, many GOP legislators are soft or guilty of funding the fraud through various unconstitutional, bloated, fraud-ridden omnibus spending bills.

The next step GOP legislators can consider is an impeachment effort against Tim Walz. It is clear that Walz is, at best, incompetent and, at worst, corrupt. Either which way, Walz is incapable of effectively leading the state and has turned Minnesota into a global embarrassment.

Action 4 Liberty will continue to keep Patriots updated as these conservative legislators fight back against Walz’ fraud regime. A4L will never waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation and we will continue prioritizing the interests of grassroots conservatives over crooked RINO and Democrat politicians.

As a member of the House Fraud Committee, Walter Hudson should be fighting fraud and exposing corruption. Instead, Hudson protects RINO Ron Kresha from allegations of PPP loan fraud, blows hot air in committees, and wastes away his life on social media. In the latest example of Hudson’s ridiculousness, he is making A.I. videos pretending to expose daycare fraud instead of ACTUALLY doing it like Nick Shirley did!

Hudson would rather sit at home and make A.I. videos of himself than to do the work he was elected to do. As seen in previous A4L reporting, a 23 year old Youtuber did more to expose fraud in MN than the entire House Fraud Committee combined. His investigative work was what Hudson and other committee members should’ve been doing the whole time! Instead, they were playing politics for the camera. Click image below to see video:

As seen above, Hudson says “Haters will say it’s AI.” and has confused some of his older followers. Some seniors are under the impression that Hudson partook in a skit and do not know that the Sora logo in the video means that it is artificial intelligence. In reality, Hudson is desperately trying to emulate Nick Shirley and distract from how useless he and the Fraud Committee have been in protecting tax dollars.

The Fraud Committee has been a fraud since its inception and A4L has called it out as such since the beginning. The committee has no subpoena power (cannot compel testimony) and legislation is not required to move through it. The committee was established as a concession from Democrats in exchange for Republicans seating leftist Brad Tabke despite more ballots being trashed than what the margin of victory was. In short, this means that RINO leadership like empty suit Lisa “Kamala” Demuth certified election fraud in exchange for a fake committee. When voted on by the chamber, only Reps. Tom Dippel (41B) and Drew Roach (58B) voted against the certification of Tabke’s election/the Dem’s phony swearing in ceremony which means every other House Democrat and Republican (including Walter Hudson) voted to certify fraud. Some House Republicans have since realized how stupid this move was.

The use of A.I. is particularly ironic for Walter Hudson considering that he led the charge to pass a bill (HF1370) that sends Minnesotans to prison for creating or sharing A.I. memes that could “influence the result of an election”. Thanks to Walter Hudson, radical socialist Keith Ellison now has another tool to weaponize the law against conservatives by imprisoning anyone who dares to mock politicians. This isn't even the first time Hudson has made A.I. memes that potentially violate his own law!

During the 3/30/23 floor debate of the A.I. bill, Hudson took time to praise leftist Democrat Zach Stephenson (now House Dem leader) by saying “It seems like every time I get up to address something you’ve said or done I’m praising it. I hope to be able to continue that.” Hudson then thanked Stephenson for the “proactive” nature of the bill and admitted that the implementation of the law may be “a little sloppy” but says “That’s okay, we’ll figure it out.” The big government, anti-freedom, pro-Democrat logic employed by Hudson proves he has no care for the average citizen but will gladly create and share A.I. memes to prop himself up.

As seen in the 2025 A4L scorecard (Hudson scored a pathetic 45.83%), Hudson is responsible for the fraud we see just like Democrats and RINOs by voting for all kinds of garbage omnibus bills. If a legislator votes for omnibus budget (spending) bills then they are responsible for contributing to the mass fraud our state is seeing. A source at the Capitol tells A4L that Hudson advocated for the abortion & Planned Parenthood funding omnibus bill (HF2435) in the GOP caucus meeting but then voted no on the floor. This means Hudson was reportedly telling other Republicans to do his dirty work and make sure the abortion bill was passed while avoiding egg on his face. This type of behavior should be no surprise considering he previously labelled President Trump as a "fascist", wants to purge grassroots conservative A4L supporters like you from the MNGOP (despite him loving A4L before he was in the legislature), and worked as a henchman for corrupt former MNGOP Chair David Hann.

Action 4 Liberty remains the hard-hitting, truth-telling, pro-liberty source for Patriots. Instead of pretending that RINOs are fighting for your interests, A4L exposes how Democrats and RINOs are working together to screw you over. Hudson has to use A.I. because he and the Fraud Committee twiddled their thumbs instead of doing on the ground investigations like Nick Shirley. A4L will never waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation.

A firestorm of attention has taken place on social media since due to massive fraud exposed in Minnesota by Youtuber Nick Shirley. Many are wondering how a 23 year old independent journalist with a limited budget and a hoodie as his signature attire was better able to expose the billions in fraud (most prevalently within the Somali immigrants) than the politicians in the State Capitol. Between Nick Shirley’s videos and President Trump’s laser-focus on Somali fraud, Minnesota politics has catapulted into another realm.

At the beginning of the 2025 legislative session, the House GOP formed a Fraud Committee that had no subpoena power and legislation was not required to pass through committee. In exchange for the GOP forming the committee and giving themselves a majority, Lisa Demuth and other GOP House leaders agreed to seat radical leftist Brad Tabke despite 21 ballots being trashed in his race where the margin of victory was just 14 votes. In short, this means that the House GOP (with exception to Reps. Tom Dippel & Drew Roach) agreed to accept election fraud and recognize an illegitimate swearing-in ceremony in order to have a committee that does nothing more than blow hot air. The RINOs have no credibility on fighting fraud!

The Fraud Committee has served no purpose other than propping up their RINO members as supposed fighters of fraud. Meanwhile, many of the RINOs seated on the committee vote for the massive, unconstitutional, big government omnibus bills that have made Minnesota a fraud-ridden national embarrassment. If you vote to fund the very fraud that is being exposed, you cannot be trusted to expose the truth. 

When Fraud Committee member Isaac Schultz was presented evidence of RINO Rep. Ron Kresha (10A) allegedly committed PPP loan fraud by illegally collecting hundreds of thousands of dollars by listing independent contractors as employees, the RINO Fraud Committee members decided that they would not investigate it or do anything to hold Kresha accountable! In the eyes of the RINOs, they do not care about fraud when one of their own is responsible! The Fraud Committee is a FRAUD!

Fraud Committee Republicans including Kristin Robbins (37A), Patti Anderson (33A), Walter Hudson (30A), Marion Rarick (29B), and Isaac Schultz (10B) have failed in protecting Minnesota from fraud, they’ve only been playing politics. Nobody expected Dems to do anything but protect Walz and Somali fraud but some will be shocked to learn that the RINO committee members are equally useless!

In one case, a Somali learning center cannot even spell the word “learning” correctly! Again, how was this exposed by a random Youtuber before the Republicans on the Fraud Committee!?!? See below:

While Action 4 Liberty has long exposed the facade of the Fraud Committee, the viewpoint that they are nothing more than professional wrestling-politics is growing. A Youtuber did the work that the Fraud Committee should’ve been doing all along! Establishment GOP Governor candidates, Chris Madel and Scott Jensen, each slammed the useless Fraud Committee on X. See below:

Naturally, this got Walter Hudson all worked up! Perhaps Hudson should be investigating fraud on behalf of taxpayers instead of spending most of his miserable life arguing with conservatives on social media. Hudson is desperate for attention and feels entitled to be honored for twiddling his thumbs with the rest of the Fraud Committee. See below:

The RINOs know that they have just been caught sitting on their hands after funding fraud and they are desperate to redefine the narrative. Just like A4L reporting that showed President Trump trolling Tom Emmer over his love of Somalia, the RINOs do not want conservatives to know their true positions. Even Tom Emmer argues that Shirley exposed more fraud than Walz and Ellison have in 7 years (despite Emmer co-forming the Somali Caucus with Ellison in 2015). Audio even shows how Emmer berated his constituents for pushing back against mass Somali immigration and Emmer ridiculously said that Somalis are "some of the fastest assimilating populations that we've had." After years of putting Somalis above average Americans, Emmer now wants you to believe that he is fighting against this garbage!

For another example, House Speaker Lisa Demuth voted for EVERY SINGLE omnibus bill during the 2025 session and special session. Now Lisa Demuth is propping up Shirley’s reporting while being eviscerated in the replies on X! She has a terrible voting record and funded the fraud she claims she will fix! Between Demuth and Walz, neither are serious about shrinking the government and eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse of tax dollars.

While Nick Shirley’s on-the-ground reporting provided some incredible information, much of this fraud has been known for years. Action 4 Liberty has been fighting for nearly a decade against child care fraud and the politicians who vote to fund it. Social services have been abused by Somalis for years yet RINOs voted for the Human Services spending omnibus bill in 2023 and 2025. RINOs even voted with Dems to fund Somali Muslim terrorist group Al-Shabaab with your tax dollars!

Unlike the career politicians with no credibility, Governor candidate Mike Lindell is gaining major grassroots support as an outsider businessman. As seen in previous A4L reporting, Lindell pulled no punches on Infowars when discussing Somali fraud and many Minnesota conservatives are looking for a statesman who isn’t tied to the corrupt Establishment. With President Trump’s quasi-endorsement, Lindell has jumped in front of the crowded field and become a frontrunner.

President Trump, Nick Shirley, a few journalists, and grassroots conservatives like you are the reason the fraud is being exposed, NOT the double-speaking RINO legislators. A4L remains on the forefront of exposing corruption in Minnesota by holding all politicians’ feet to the fire. More and more prosecutions, evidence, and exposure is on the horizon. A4L will continue serving the interests of the grassroots by protecting liberty for the next generation.
