Minnesota Sheriff: Tim Walz and AG Keith Ellison Put Politics Over Public Safety

/

Mille Lacs County Sheriff Kyle Burton defended his department’s participation in a federal immigration enforcement partnership, arguing that cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is critical to public safety, while criticizing Minnesota’s top Democratic leaders for opposing those efforts.

Burton made the comments during an exchange with journalist Liz Collin while discussing the county’s involvement in the federal 287(g) program, which allows local law enforcement agencies to work with ICE. Burton said the decision to participate was rooted in preparation and safety.

“You know, I think failing to prepare is is preparing to fail. I’ve always said that,” Burton said.

“And so for for us, it was more just preparation. And anything we can do to partner with our federal partners, to make the county safer, I think, is a good thing.”

Collin asked Burton to explain how Mille Lacs County operates under the 287(g) task force model.

“So there are three types of, 287(g) agreements that you can enter into. You’re in what’s called the task force model. Explain how that works,” she said.

Burton outlined the differences between the available agreements and emphasized that the task force model focuses on targeting dangerous offenders.

“Yeah. So you have three, three agreements you can enter into. You’ve got like a jail model, which mostly involves detaining of folks that are here illegally. You’ve got a warrant, a Warrant Officer model, and then you have the task force model, which is what we’re in,” he said.

He said the model allows local deputies to work directly alongside ICE agents in the field.

“That’s more of a collaboration between us and ICE agents. It allows us to go out in the field and assist them in apprehending certain individuals who they deem to be kind of the most dangerous,” Burton said.

Burton referenced federal priorities that focus on removing individuals who pose the greatest threat.

“You’ve heard, I’m sure, representatives from DHS talk about our priority right now is the worst first,” he said.

“Certainly the worst first would be those who are here, not only illegally, but have also committed, you know, violent or heinous crimes while they’re in the country illegally.”

Collin contrasted Minnesota’s stance with that of other states that cooperate with ICE, citing her own experience on a ride-along.

“You know, Sheriff, we were able to accompany ice on a recent ride along,” she said.

“You could clearly see how these partnerships are so valuable in many states. There is that cooperation. Not the case in Minnesota.”

She noted that without local cooperation, ICE agents are forced into more dangerous situations.

“You could see how these agents are basically then forced out into the field, whether it’s homes or businesses, rather than just doing a pickup from the local jail,” Collin said.

She questioned why Minnesota’s leadership opposes such partnerships.

“You have to kind of wonder that this is our Attorney General in Minnesota, our top law enforcement officer. I mean, that’s what the attorney general of any state is. So why would they be against something like this that really centers around safety?”

Burton pointed directly to opposition from Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, saying their rhetoric undermines law enforcement.

“That’s a great question,” Burton said.

“And, you know, I think it’s the Attorney General and the governor of Minnesota have both been very much opposed to the President’s stance on illegal immigration, cracking down on border security.”

Burton cited Walz’s past comments about federal immigration agents.

“I mean, our governor has been quoted publicly referring to, you know, ICE agents as the Gestapo,” he said.

A clip of Walz was then played, in which the governor said, “Donald Trump’s modern day Gestapo. Gestapo is scooping folks up off the streets. They’re in unmarked vans wearing masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons, no chance to mount a defense, not even a chance to kiss the loved one goodbye, just grabbed up by masked agents, shoved into those vans and disappeared.”

Burton said such language has real-world consequences.

“So you know, when you have that kind of rhetoric being fed by top level officials such as the governor and now the attorney general, who is clearly not in support of this program. It’s troubling,” he said.

He added that opposition to immigration enforcement is rooted in partisan politics rather than public safety.

“I mean, their political party, they’re both democrats, that’s no secret, has very much not been in support of, you know, the current administration’s efforts to secure the country,” Burton said.

“And the reality is, the vast majority of America voted for this.”

‘These Government Agencies Are About as Useful as Nipples on a Bull’: Carl Higbie

/

Conservative commentator Carl Higbie argued that widespread inefficiency across federal agencies demands aggressive budget cuts, saying Washington has grown bloated with programs that deliver little value to taxpayers while draining billions of dollars from the federal budget.

Higbie said his comments have already drawn attention from lawmakers and their staff.

“I ruffled a lot of feathers down in DC, I got a call, a few calls, actually, from congressmen or their staffers, and they were all trying to explain to me, like, Oh, why this can or can’t be done,” he said.

“So I know they’re watching, but here’s just a few ideas.”

He said his criticism is rooted in frustration with waste, not partisan infighting.

“And look, this is coming from a place, honestly, I actually want to help,” Higbie said. “I hate criticizing my own party, but someone’s got to if they’re screwing it up.”

Higbie acknowledged that large-scale cuts would result in job losses but dismissed concerns that Washington would suffer lasting harm.

“Look, there’s going to be a massive bunch of pain for a bunch of bureaucrats who end up getting fired. There always is,” he said.

“But considering the surrounding counties of Washington, DC are some of the wealthiest in the country, I really just don’t care at this point.”

He said Congress should start by making broad reductions across the board. “Let’s look at some of the low hanging fruit,” Higbie said.

“You could just like, codify all the doge cuts, take that right off the top of any budget, like couple 100 billion dollars right there.”

Higbie pointed specifically to the National Endowment for the Arts, questioning why the federal government funds such programs.

“Then you got places like the National Endowments for the Arts, 207 million, like 150 staff, zero reason the government should be funding art programs and things like that,” he said.

“Nothing there.”

He argued those agencies could be eliminated immediately. “And what’s great about this, there’s no turnover. There’s no like winding down, just an immediate cut. Everybody go home, sell the building,” Higbie said.

He made similar remarks about the National Endowment for the Humanities.

“We got the National Endowment for Humanities. I never even heard of this. It’s the same thing on the $200 million organization,” he said.

Higbie added that many small agencies provide little benefit.

“There’s a ton of these, like hundreds of these little agencies in the 100 to $200 million that are about as useful as nipples on a bull.”

Higbie also criticized federally funded research programs.

“Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. What the hell is that they just like, give money to like, write white papers about stuff African development found it,” he said.

He suggested redirecting funds domestically.

“How about we use that money to fund and develop Detroit?”

Turning to larger agencies, Higbie took aim at the Department of Education.

“The department education. Everybody who runs it’s like, yeah, this is great. It’s bad. We got to do this,” he said.

“A lot of folks on Capitol Hill right now promised that they would get rid of this. Donald Trump did too.”

He cited the department’s budget and outcomes as justification.

“There’s 238 billion now we’re talking they don’t employ one active teacher, and since their inception, our kids have gotten, like, marketably dumber,” Higbie said.

“Okay, test scores are in the toilet.”

Higbie also questioned the necessity of the National Weather Service.

“NOAA, here’s another one, folks. This is the weather group, okay, $7 billion or so for this,” he said.

“This might have been needed in the 70s when it was created, but now we have more advanced weather on, like our watches on our iPhones provided by private companies.”

He rejected arguments that such agencies cannot be eliminated.

“We don’t need NOAA anymore. Oh, Carl, we can’t cut that. Yes, we can,” Higbie said.

“We can cut. We can cut whatever we want.”

Stephen Miller Blows the Lid Off the NGO Refugee Industrial Complex

/

Stephen Miller sharply criticized what he described as a sprawling “refugee industrial complex,” accusing nongovernmental organizations of profiting off mass refugee resettlement while transforming small American communities and placing long-term financial burdens on taxpayers.

Miller said the system expanded dramatically under the Biden-Harris administration, with billions of dollars flowing from the federal government to outside organizations.

“President Trump has blown the lid off of the refugee industrial complex,” Miller said.

“And the way this works is exactly the way that you said, the US government, historically, and this, of course, got taken to the highest degree ever under Biden hands out billions with a beat, billions of dollars in grants to these third party groups, nongovernmental organizations.”

According to Miller, those organizations work with federal agencies to relocate large numbers of refugees into specific parts of the country.

“To work with the Department of State to find the poorest populations from the most dysfunctional places in the world and then bring them into small town America,” he said.

Miller said rural and Midwestern communities are often targeted because of the scale of change refugee resettlement can bring.

“They typically look for areas in rural communities, rural places, or more traditional Midwestern towns, they can completely transform,” he said.

“So they send them to small towns in Ohio, to small towns in Maine.”

He pointed to Minnesota as a central focus of these efforts.

“And of course, we’ve seen their central project has been in Minneapolis and St Paul in the Twin Cities in Minnesota,” Miller said.

Miller accused the nonprofits involved of amassing enormous wealth through the process.

“And so these nonprofits get massively rich. They rake in a fortune. They become some of the wealthiest nonprofits the world has ever seen,” he said.

He argued that their role goes beyond resettlement and extends into expanding dependence on government programs.

“And their job is to fly the refugees here to help them become citizens and to ensure that they are enrolled in every welfare benefit program in that train expense of the American people, exactly,” Miller said.

Miller did not mince words in condemning the practice. “It is heinous. It is shameful,” he said.

He contrasted that system with actions taken under President Donald Trump, praising the administration’s approach to refugee policy.

“And I’m proud of the fact which we don’t say enough, President Trump has stopped all refugee resettlement into the country,” Miller said.

Miller added that there is only one exception currently being made.

“The only refugee resettlement that is happening are the Afrikaners being persecuted in South Africa,” he said.

Web of Connections: Top Minnesota Dems All Linked to Massive Somali Fraud Scandal

/

Fox News host Will Cain raised questions about what he described as a network of political connections linking Minnesota elected officials to individuals involved in major fraud cases, pointing specifically to Rep. Ilhan Omar, Gov. Tim Walz, and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

Cain said the connections surround some of the largest fraud cases in recent years, including the Feeding Our Future scandal and other related investigations.

“Under the nose of Ilhan Omar, Tim Walz, Attorney General, Keith Ellison, we see a web of connections between them and those directly involved in the fraud,” Cain said.

Cain pointed first to Rep. Omar and her role in legislation and campaign activity connected to individuals later convicted in fraud cases.

“For example, Ilhan Omar alleged enabling introducing the 2020 meals Act, which was ultimately subject to fraud, held a campaign victory party at the safari restaurant,” Cain said.

He added, “That’s where one of the men who run that restaurant is has associations to the convicted individuals.”

Cain then turned his attention to Gov. Walz, questioning oversight at the state level during the period when the fraud occurred.

“And then there’s Tim waltz House Oversight investigation role in his role as governor,” Cain said, raising concerns about accountability within state leadership.

Cain also criticized Attorney General Keith Ellison, arguing that Ellison failed to properly enforce the law while maintaining relationships with those tied to the fraud.

“Or Keith Ellison, the Attorney General. His job is to enforce the law in Minnesota, but instead he’s getting donations after meeting with the feeding our future representatives,” Cain said. He described Feeding Our Future as “the feeding our future the biggest known yet part of this entire fraud, excuse me, theft ring.”

Cain expanded the discussion beyond Minnesota, pointing to a separate fraud case involving Black Lives Matter leadership.

“The executive director of Black Lives Matter, by the way, over in Oklahoma City, has now been charged with wire fraud and money laundering,” Cain said.

He noted the scale of the alleged misconduct, stating, “The organization raised more than $5 million in 2020 but she is accused of pocketing more than half of that instead of using it to bail out people for protesting in support of BLM.”

Cain said the alleged misuse of funds stands in contrast to the organization’s stated mission.

“No, she pocketed, allegedly, most of that money,” he said.

He then highlighted what he described as another political connection tied to Rep. Omar.

“And by the way, here she is. You want to see a picture over here she is. NOTICE who she is in the picture with That’s right, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar,” Cain said, before concluding, “but hey, it’s just the system, right?”

CNN Exposes How Epstein Leaned on an Obama Insider to Manage His Image

/

A CNN report highlighted extensive communications and meetings between Kathy Ruemmler, a former White House counsel to Barack Obama and the current top lawyer at Goldman Sachs, and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, revealing a relationship that continued for years after Epstein was registered as a sex offender.

According to the CNN narration, “One of the most powerful people in the Epstein files is somebody you may not have heard of. Her name is Kathy Ruemmler, and she is one of the people who communicated with Jeffrey Epstein the most, according to emails released last month from Epstein’s estate by House investigators.”

The segment noted Ruemmler’s prominence and professional standing, stating that she is “a former White House counsel to Barack Obama and now top lawyer at one of the world’s most powerful banks, Goldman Sachs.”

CNN reported that records show “before she joined the bank, they exchanged more than 100 emails, and Epstein’s schedule lists them having more than 50 planned meetings between 2014 and 2019 long after he was a registered sex offender.”

The narration described the nature of their relationship, saying that “across the many messages, Ruemmler emerges as a confidant and friend to Epstein, and he turned to her for help for managing his public reputation after he was convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor.”

The report cited a specific example, explaining that “in 120 19 message, for example, Epstein wrote that Ruemmler helped him craft a statement in response to a forthcoming Washington Post editorial that was calling on Congress to investigate him.”

Epstein allegedly referred to that effort as the “Ruemmler proposal.”

According to CNN, “The statement defended Epstein and denied that he ever received a sweetheart deal. This is what Kathy suggests we tell Washington Post, Epstein said.”

CNN reported that Ruemmler denied formally representing Epstein.

“While Ruemmler told CNN that she did not represent Epstein and was not compensated by him, she did not directly answer whether she ever crafted PR statements for him or advised him on media strategy,” the narrator said.

The report added that “Ruemmler said she had no knowledge of any new or ongoing unlawful activity by Epstein.”

The segment also referenced an email exchange from June 2018.

“In an email to Epstein in June 2018 Ruemmler dismissed a daily B story about allegations against him, describing it as a quote novella of rehash crap,” the narration said.

CNN noted that Ruemmler later clarified her comment, saying she was referring to the article itself and not the allegations.

CNN quoted Ruemmler directly, stating that she said, “I have deep sympathy for anyone victimized by Epstein, and as I have said many times, I regret ever knowing him.”

Despite those statements, the report described correspondence that appeared to extend beyond purely professional matters.

“But at the time, Ruemmler’s correspondence with Epstein often appeared to go beyond professional matters,” the narrator said.

“They gossiped about current events, arranged celebrity lunches and dinners. Epstein even appears to have coordinated some of her personal beauty appointments.”

In her statement to CNN, Ruemmler characterized Epstein differently. According to the narration, “Ruemmler referred to Epstein as a business referral source, and said she knew him in a quote, professional capacity when she worked in private practice.”

CNN quoted her saying, “I did not travel with him, go out to dinner with him, or spend time with him one on one, except in a professional setting.”

The report also noted Ruemmler’s claim that Epstein’s records may not be reliable.

“As has been well established, Epstein’s calendars and schedules often do not reflect reality,” the narrator said.

CNN concluded by contrasting Ruemmler’s situation with that of other Epstein associates.

“What’s so interesting about Ruemmler is that unlike other Epstein associates like Larry Summers or Prince Andrew, who have paid a steep price for their association with Epstein, Ruemmler has managed to fly under the radar,” the narrator said.

“She remains at Goldman Sachs, which so far has chosen to stand by her.”

NY CDL Bombshell: Duffy Threatens Funding Cut After Over Half Found Illegally Issued

/

Department of Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said a nationwide audit has found New York to be the worst offender in unlawfully issuing commercial driver’s licenses, warning the state it has 30 days to comply with federal law or risk losing tens of millions of dollars in federal funding.

Duffy said the audit revealed that more than half of New York’s non-domiciled commercial driver’s licenses were issued illegally.

“We’ve done this nationwide audit. We found the worst offender, which is the state of New York,” Duffy said.

“53% of New York’s non domiciled CDLs were issued unlawfully or illegally.”

According to Duffy, the core problem centers on New York’s practice of issuing long-term licenses to individuals with only short-term work authorization.

“Now what New York does is if an applicant comes in and they have a work authorization for 30 days, 60 days, one year, New York automatically issues them an eight year commercial driver’s license,” he said.

“That’s contrary to the law. That’s one offense.”

Duffy said the audit uncovered additional failures beyond the length of the licenses themselves, including a lack of basic verification by state officials.

“But we also found that New York many times, won’t even verify whether they have a work authorization, they have a visa or they’re in the country illegally,” he said.

He warned that the consequences of these practices extend beyond paperwork violations and pose a direct risk to public safety.

“So they’re just giving eight year commercial driver’s licenses to people who are coming through their DMV and sending them out on American roadways,” Duffy said.

“And again, they’re endangering the lives of American families.”

Duffy said federal law leaves him little discretion in how the matter must be handled.

“I don’t like that. I have to do this, but the law requires me to do this,” he said.

He announced that New York has been given a firm deadline to correct the violations.

“I’m going to give New York 30 days, because that’s what the law requires to come into compliance with the rules that have been long standing at the Department of Transportation,” Duffy said.

He added that federal officials are prepared to work with the state if it follows the law.

“If they come into compliance, we’re going to work with them,” he said.

However, Duffy warned that refusal to comply would trigger immediate financial consequences.

“If New York refuses to come into compliance, because Kathy Hochul, for some reason, believes that we should have unqualified truck drivers on American roadways, we are going to pull 10s of millions of dollars as phase one for the state of New York,” he said.

Tim Pool Calls Out Candace Owens Over Her Unhinged Charlie Kirk Comments

/

Commentator Tim Pool criticized Candace Owens over what he described as her handling of the murder of Charlie Kirk, accusing her of turning a tragedy into a sensationalized political spectacle and attacking those closest to Kirk.

Pool said the killing of Kirk was already devastating to the conservative movement and argued that Owens’ actions have compounded that damage.

“And the most damaging thing done, of course, was the murder of Charlie Kirk,” Pool said.

“And now the second most damaging thing we’re looking at is Candace Owens, burning down everything he built, and now having the gall to go after his grieving widow and his children, indirectly threatening their livelihoods.”

Pool said Owens crossed a line by targeting the organization Kirk built and the people closest to him.

“What Charlie built, it’s a bridge too far,” Pool said.

He accused Owens of making increasingly extreme statements, adding, “She’s said many things that were increasingly, let’s just call it, unhinged.”

According to Pool, Owens escalated her rhetoric by encouraging supporters to withdraw financial backing from Turning Point USA.

“And then finally, one day, she said, pull your donations from this God forsaken organization, with a direct implication in her post, saying that Charlie Kirk was betrayed by turning point, USA,” Pool said.

He pointed to claims Owens made about Kirk’s inner circle, stating that she went as far as “even saying in one clip that his friends would have had to have signed off on his murder.”

Pool said Owens’ behavior reflects a willingness to go to any length to advance her own career.

“It seems like there is no depth too deep and no bridge too far for her to benefit her career and her show,” he said.

“She would even go after those who love Charlie the most.”

While Pool said questioning official narratives can be legitimate, he argued Owens went far beyond reasonable skepticism.

“And I have no problem with people questioning the official government narrative or what the FBI thinks,” Pool said.

He then criticized specific claims she made, saying, “But claiming there’s Egyptian planes flying around in Utah time, which he was incorrect about, claiming that these planes are landing at airports, or black SUVs are pulling into federal buildings, where it just so happens her lawyers also work. It is just come to the realm of nonsense.”

Pool also took issue with claims Owens made about the military.

“The US military, she claims is now involved in his murder,” he said.

He argued that Owens has reframed a real tragedy into entertainment.

“She has turned the very tragic murder of Charlie Kirk, and she has turned this political movement into a reality drama, true crime show where she treats us all like characters in a fictional show,” Pool said.

Pool concluded that the situation has gone beyond acceptable debate.

“And, you know, I think it’s it’s just gone too far,” he said.

Released Illegal Alien Assaults Cop and Tries to Steal His Gun During ICE Raid

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents stepped up enforcement operations in Minnesota’s Twin Cities this week as part of what officials are calling “Operation Metro Surge,” a crackdown that shows the consequences of Minneapolis’ long-standing sanctuary policies.

Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer introduced the operation during a live segment, saying, “ICE agents now going out in full force in Minnesota’s twin cities, communities, as the Trump administration steps up the fight against illegal immigration. Mike Tobin has been there all week, back in Minneapolis again today. Mike, good morning.”

Correspondent Mike Tobin reported from Minneapolis, where ICE agents have been conducting targeted operations after repeated failures by local authorities to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement.

“Good morning. Bill, Operation Metro surge is in full swing. Hundreds have been taken off the street now,” Tobin said.

He noted that Minneapolis has been a sanctuary city since 2003, which has complicated routine immigration enforcement and forced ICE to conduct arrests in neighborhoods rather than inside jails.

Tobin described a recent case involving a 26-year-old from Ecuador who allegedly entered the United States illegally in 2023.

“Minneapolis has been a sanctuary city since 2003 so the warrant that ICE agents served yesterday is pretty typical,” Tobin said.

“You’ve got a guy who they say entered the US illegally in 2023 came to the Twin Cities, broke the law and was jailed but released.”

Because the individual was released before an ICE detainer could be processed, agents were forced to track him down in the community.

“The target of this rape is a twin 26 year old from Ecuador,” Tobin said, describing the operation.

He explained that agents were able to enter the residence without breaching the door.

“When the agent showed up here on the scene, they were actually met at the door. So you didn’t have a big breach of the door. They didn’t have to break it down.”

The operation resulted in additional arrests. “They went in and got the individual,” Tobin said, adding that because there was no jail handoff, agents made what are known as collateral arrests.

“You get the collateral arrest other people who were in the house. They took at least three guys out of the house right now.”

Tobin said the suspect had previously been arrested after being found intoxicated in East Minneapolis.

“They found him here in East Minneapolis, slumped over a car, intoxicated in some way, shape or form,” he said.

According to Tobin, the encounter escalated.

“The arresting officer, he got into a fight with him. He attempted to choke him out, and he attempted to get his weapon.”

Despite the seriousness of the incident, the individual was released.

“This is an individual who was then booked into Minneapolis. PD, but before they could get all the paperwork done for an ice detainer, he was released on the street,” Tobin said.

That release triggered a larger enforcement action. “So now, instead of a handover in the jail or in a courtroom, you have a big tactical operation in the neighborhood,” he said.

The operation also drew protests, with demonstrators attempting to interfere.

“You had people blowing their whistles. So the protesters came out,” Tobin said.

One protester crossed the line into physical confrontation.

“One woman who came out to protest her, she shoved one of the agents who was guarding the perimeter that was enough for her to get zip tied and hauled into federal custody.”

Tobin concluded by pointing to the root of the problem.

“And keep in mind, none of this happens if (unitelligable) from Ecuador was handed over in the jail.”

Tim Walz Should Face Charges of Aiding and Abetting Criminal Behavior: Rep Steube

/

Rep. Greg Steube (R-FL) said Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz could face criminal liability in connection with a Somali fraud scheme that allegedly sent U.S. taxpayer dollars to al-Shabaab, arguing that both the perpetrators and state leadership should be investigated by the Department of Justice.

Steube’s remarks came during an exchange with conservative commentator Benny Johnson, who framed the issue around national security and the handling of Afghan refugees brought into the country under Joe Biden.

“The Somali fraud allegedly funded Muslim terrorism, the same kind of Muslim terrorism that we’re seeing on the streets of Washington, DC, and the killing of our National Guardsmen,” Johnson said.

“What needs to be done here with the Afghan refugees that were brought in here wholesale by Joe Biden? What needs to be done with the Somali fraudsters who are funding al Shabaab with our tax dollars?”

Steube responded by pointing first to what he described as serious failures in vetting Afghan refugees admitted into the United States.

“Well, we know that those Afghan refugees were not vetted,” Steube said.

“They should be fully vetted by this current administration, and I’m sure they’re working on doing that.”

He said the Biden-Harris administration’s border policies have overwhelmed federal enforcement agencies.

“They have so many things that they’re working on that they need more ICE agents and they need more Border Patrol agents to go through all the litany of the open border policies of Joe Biden over the last four years, and the 12 million illegals that are in our country,” Steube said.

Steube cited testimony indicating that known security threats remain inside the United States.

“Yesterday, in the testimony, there was still, there’s still 100 something, or several 100 known terrorists that the Biden administration led into our country that they’re trying to search and get out,” he said.

Turning to the alleged fraud itself, Steube said criminal charges should be pursued.

“But that is one piece, and then the fraud should also be investigated from the DOJ, that’s criminal penalties,” he said.

“That’s stealing taxpayer dollars when you don’t have a right to be able to get those.”

Steube said accountability should extend beyond the individuals who carried out the fraud.

“And I believe not only the people that defrauded the United States out of those taxpayer dollars on those government programs should be held criminally liable,” he said.

“I think the leaders of that state, like Walz, who knew or should have known, that this was going on, should be held accountable as well.”

Johnson pressed Steube on how such accountability would work in practice.

“Okay, so how does that? How does that work? So, yeah, Tim Walz, like is, would this be a DOJ thing?” he asked.

Steube said federal prosecutors could pursue the matter under several criminal theories.

“Well, it’d be like a conspiracy case,” he said.

“It would be like you aided and abetted criminal behavior.”

He added that multiple legal avenues could apply if state leadership was aware of the fraud or allowed it to continue.

“I mean, there’s all sorts of different statutes you could probably tie in if he knew, or should have known, that fraudulent activity was going on in his state, or even took steps to allow it to occur,” Steube said.

“That’s aiding and abetting criminal behavior. That’s obstruction. I mean, there’s a whole bunch of different things, statues that they could lop in for that.”

Explosive Non-Citizen Social Security Number Growth Under Biden is Staggering

/

Conservative commentator Steve Deace pointed to a Fox News graphic to highlight what he described as a dramatic rise in the number of Social Security numbers issued to non-citizens during the Biden-Harris administration, raising concerns about the scale of the increase and its broader implications.

Deace said Fox News aired a graph showing year-by-year growth in non-citizen Social Security numbers issued since former President Joe Biden took office.

“Fox News ran this graph yesterday, non-citizen social security numbers issued during the Biden administration, 270,021, over 590,022, over 960,023, over 2.1 million in 24,” Deace said.

He focused particularly on the sharp jump in the most recent year shown on the graph.

“Gee, I wonder why that escalated so much in 24,” Deace said, before pointing to what he suggested could be incentives tied to having a Social Security number.

“Because what are you probably more likely to legitimately be able to claim if you’ve got a social security card? Citizenship, voting, citizenship voting, by the way,” he said.

Deace emphasized the scale of the numbers by comparing them to state populations.

“That’s more people the Biden administration gave more non citizens social security cards in four years than live in our home state of Iowa,” he said.

He narrowed the focus further to the most recent year alone, saying the 2024 figure exceeded the population of multiple states.

“If we just took the amount of people they gave those to in 2024 that’s more people than live in Nebraska, Idaho, West Virginia, Hawaii, New Hampshire, Maine, Montana, Rhode Island, Delaware, South Dakota, North Dakota, Alaska, DC, Vermont and Wyoming,” Deace said.

Deace concluded by framing the number as equivalent to a mid-sized state if counted on its own.

“It would be the 39th largest state in the union, just the amount of people, non Americans, they gave social security cards to last year,” he said.

Deace’s remarks centered on the rapid increase shown in the Fox News graphic and his view that the scale of non-citizen Social Security number issuance under the Biden-Harris administration warrants closer scrutiny.
