Minnesota Governor Tim Walz announced he is ending his re election campaign as fraud in state programmes dominates the political agenda. Walz said he chose to focus on governing rather than campaigning during an extraordinarily difficult year. He accused Donald Trump and Republican allies of exploiting the crisis and playing politics. The governor pointed to organised criminal groups abusing state generosity, including Medicaid and Covid relief schemes. His decision reshapes the contest in Minnesota as investigations and political tensions continue to intensify.#TimWalz #Minnesota #BreakingNews #USPolitics #FraudScandal #GovernorRace #Trump #Election2026
