That's the heart of the staggering "Feeding Our Future" scandal in Minnesota, where $250 million in federal funds, intended for a children's nutrition program during the COVID-19 pandemic, were allegedly stolen by fraudsters for personal extravagance.
This prompted President Donald Trump and congressional allies to demand accountability from Gov. Tim Walz, among others, and recovery of the misappropriated taxpayer cash.
This scheme exploited a well-intentioned relaxation of rules by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which waived standard oversight for the Federal Child Nutrition Program to ease food distribution during the crisis. [IRS.gov]
Good Night, Patriots!
