BREAKING: Tampon Tim Walz DROPS OUT of Minnesota Governor’s Race Following Massive Somali Fraud Scandal
The ongiong Somali fraud scandal has brought an end to Givenror Tim Walz’s political carrer in Minnesota.
He has announced he will not seek a third term this morning.
Here is Walz’s full statement via KTTC:
In September, I announced that I would run for a historic third term as Minnesota’s Governor. And I have every confidence that, if I gave it my all, I would succeed in that effort.
But as I reflected on this moment with my family and my team over the holidays, I came to the conclusion that I can’t give a political campaign my all. Every minute I spend defending my own political interests would be a minute I can’t spend defending the people of Minnesota against the criminals who prey on our generosity and the cynics who prey on our differences.
So I’ve decided to step out of the race and let others worry about the election while I focus on the work.
I know this news may come as a surprise. But I’m passing on the race with zero sadness and zero regret. After all, I didn’t run for this job so I could have this job. I ran for this job so I could do this job. Minnesota faces an enormous challenge this year. And I refuse to spend even one minute of 2026 doing anything other than rising to meet the moment. Minnesota has to come first – always.
Axios reports that Senator Amy Klobuchar and Attorney General Keith Ellison could now jump in the race.
From Axios:
Who jumps in the race for the DFL nomination, and how it reshapes the contours of the race.
U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Attorney General Keith Ellison and Secretary of State Steve Simon are all seen as possible candidates.
The Gateway Pundit’s Kristinn Taylor previously reported that Walz would likely announce his decision to drop out of his reelection bid for a third term on Monday. Walz’s office said that he would hold an 11 a.m. CST press conference on Monday.
The Gateway Pundit reported on independent journalist Nick Shirley’s explosive exclusive on Somali fraud, which exposed millions of dollars in fraud involving Somali daycare centers in Minnesota.
Shirley shared clips of his investigation on X, including footage of the door being slammed in his face while he asked a Minnesota Childcare Center that claims to care for 102 children, which appeared empty.
Shirley released the full 42-minute video of his investigation, noting, “We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day.”
Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable
