Welcome, it is Verdict with Ted Cruz. We can review Ben Ferguson with you, and happy 4th of July. Here are the big stories that you may have missed that we talked about this past week. We have got a shocking story coming out of Minnesota that the governor there actually paid private investigators to spy and to intimidate government employees who had whistleblown on the massive fraud that was taking place. Also, a bill that is actually moving through Congress that is now quite possibly going to save college sports forever. And lastly, an activist DA in Philadelphia yet again letting criminals walk. Why is this happening and who's behind it? We explain that for you. It's the Week in Review, and it starts right now.
All right, I want to move on to this other incredible story, Senator, coming out of Minnesota. And in life, especially in government work, you're told that if you're a whistleblower that you have protections. And that if you're a whistleblower, you should not be afraid for your job or that someone's going to come after you, certainly the government that you work for. Well, apparently that's not the case in Minnesota. And if you want to know how the Somali fraud got so bad, it might actually be because the governor was coming after the whistleblower, not those that were committing the crimes in Minnesota with his new shocking report.
Well, that is inevitably, number one, the law, federal law and typically state law that protects whistleblowers, that gives you legal protection because you want whistleblowers to call attention to fraud. But number two, if a government official goes after the whistleblowers, attacks the whistleblowers, refuses to follow the law on whistleblowers, that is powerful indication of a guilty mind. that you're covering something up. It's sort of like if someone is murdered in Central Park, and you catch a person burning their clothes from that night and destroying the murder weapon. That is powerful, powerful evidence that they're the murderer, that it is typically the guilty who destroys evidence who tries to cover it up, that if you're not guilty,
you have far less motivation, far less likelihood to try to silence whistleblowers, to try to destroy evidence. So here's the story that broke in the Daily Caller. The headline is, Tim Walz's staff hired private investigators to silence fraud whistleblowers, committee report finds. Senior Minnesota state officials allegedly hired outside investigators to silence whistleblowers in an attempt to cover up widespread state social services fraud, a House committee report released Monday found. The 200-page staff report by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform found that Democrat Minnesota Governor Tim Walz's state's administration intimidated and retaliated against state employees who raised concerns about fraud.
soliciting private investigators to reveal employees' personal details. A report titled The Cost of Doing Nothing, how Tim Walz and Keith Ellison fueled Minnesota's fraud explosion, exposed that senior state officials, as high as allegedly Governor Walz, were aware of widespread fraud for years and neglected to respond to reports.
