Minnesota governor to end political career amid fraud scandal and party criticism

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz says his time as a political candidate is over.

“I will never run for an elected office again. Never again,” Walz, the Democratic Party’s 2024 vice presidential nominee, said in an interview with MS NOW.

Facing stinging criticism from President Donald Trump, other Republicans, and even some Democrats over a massive fraud scandal rocking Minnesota, Walz earlier this month announced that he was dropping his 2026 bid for an unprecedented third term as governor of the blue-leaning state.

But at the time, he didn’t rule out any future runs for elected office.

Since Walz’s announcement, the state has become the epicenter in the heated battle over Trump’s unprecedented crackdown on illegal immigration, following the fatal shootings by federal agents of two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis who instigated federal agents during deportation operations.

FRAUD FALLOUT FORCES WALZ TO ABANDON GUBERNATORIAL RE-ELECTION BID

Pointing to the protests against the actions by federal agents, Walz said there are “heroes on the streets that we don’t know their names.”

“They’re never going to run for office, and those grass-tops leaders brought this administration to their knees this week to do something about it. So there’s other ways to serve, and I’ll find them,” the governor added in his Wednesday interview.

Walz launched his re-election bid in September but in December started facing a barrage of incoming political fire over the large-scale theft, under his watch as governor, in a state that has long prided itself on good governance.

More than 90 people — most from Minnesota’s large Somali community — have been charged since 2022. 

KLOBUCHAR LAUNCHES BID FOR MINNESOTA GOVERNOR IN BID TO SUCCEED WALZ

How much money has been stolen through alleged money laundering operations involving fraudulent meal and housing programs, daycare centers and Medicaid services is still being tabulated. But the U.S. attorney in Minnesota said the scope of the fraud could exceed $1 billion and rise to as high as $9 billion.

Federal prosecutors said some of the dozens that have already pleaded guilty in the case used the money to buy luxury cars, real estate, jewelry and international vacations, with some of the funds also sent overseas and potentially into the hands of Islamic terrorists.

“This is on my watch, I am accountable for this and, more importantly, I am the one that will fix it,” Walz told reporters in December, as he took responsibility for the scandal.

Nearly a dozen Republicans who are running to succeed Walz in the governor’s office are making the fraud scandal central to their campaigns.

And on Thursday, as expected, longtime Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar launched a gubernatorial campaign, giving her party a big boost as it aims to defend the governor’s office.

WALZ ON GOP CALLS FOR HIM TO RESIGN OVER FRAUD SCANDAL: ‘OVER MY DEAD BODY’

The 61-year-old Walz was raised in rural Nebraska and enlisted in the Army National Guard in 1981, soon after graduating from high school.

Walz returned to Nebraska to attend Chadron State College, where he graduated in 1989 with a degree in social science education.

He taught English and American History in China for one year through a program at Harvard University before being hired in 1990 as a high school teacher and football and basketball coach in Nebraska. Six years later, he moved to Mankato, Minnesota, to teach geography at Mankato West High.

Walz was deployed to Italy to support Operation Enduring Freedom in 2003 before retiring two years later from the National Guard.

INSIDE THE RISE AND FALL OF TIM WALZ

He was elected to the House in 2006 and re-elected five times, representing Minnesota’s 1st Congressional District, a mostly rural district covering the southern part of the state that includes a number of midsize cities. During his last two years on Capitol Hill, he served as ranking member of the House Veterans Affairs Committee. 

Walz won election as governor in 2018 and re-election four years later.

But Walz was unknown to many Americans when then-Vice President Kamala Harris chose the Minnesota governor as her running mate in the summer of 2024, soon after she replaced then-President Joe Biden as the Democrats’ presidential nominee.

Walz, during his three months as running mate, visually and vocally embraced the traditional role of political attack dog that has long been associated with vice presidential nominees.

But Harris and Walz fell short, losing the November 2024 election to Trump and now-Vice President JD Vance, as the Democratic Party ticket was swept in all seven crucial battleground states.

Pundits considered Walz a possible contender for the Democratic Party’s 2028 presidential nomination.

But Walz said in multiple interviews last summer that he had no interest in seeking the presidency.

And the ongoing fraud scandal and his decision to end his gubernatorial re-election put an end to Walz’s recent tenure in national politics.

Ice-T explains why he swapped ‘Cop Killer’ lyrics for ‘ICE Killer’ at LA concert

Rapper Ice-T defended a lyric change from his 1992 song “Cop Killer” to “ICE Killer” during a Los Angeles concert last year, saying Wednesday it was meant as a protest against federal immigration enforcement.

The rapper said the lyric change happened during a July show amid heightened federal immigration enforcement in LA.

The song “Cop Killer” was released in the early 1990s by Ice-T’s metal band “Body Count,” and at the time sparked backlash from law enforcement groups and even then-President George H. W. Bush over its anti-police messaging.

Ice-T called the switch to “ICE Killer” a form of protest but warned that any violence against federal agents could escalate tensions across the country.

STEPHEN COLBERT SAYS ‘F— ICE’ FOLLOWING ALEX PRETTI SHOOTING, CONDEMNS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION RESPONSE

“I think that we’re headed [to] some very ugly terrain,” Ice-T said on “The Breakfast Club” radio show.

“I think the moment somebody shoots an ICE agent, it’s going to get bad,” he added.

“ICE was active out there. So, it’s like, I’m in the midst of ICE raids and stuff like that, and I’m in front of an LA audience, and it just came out. I didn’t know I was [going to] do it,” Ice-T said of his Warped Tour performance last July.

“’ICE Killer,’ ‘Cop Killer,’it’s really protest. I’m just protesting,” the rapper later added.

ICE did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital. 

MOLLY RINGWALD WARNS THAT PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT ICE WILL BE SEEN AS ‘COLLABORATIONISTS’

Immigration enforcement has sparked heightened tensions nationwide, particularly in Minneapolis. Two Americans were killed there in separate shootings involving federal agents. Both cases remain under investigation, with the Trump administration claiming justification for both shootings, while critics have said they were wrongfully killed.

Tensions with ICE flared earlier this month following the death of Renee Nicole Good during a federal enforcement action in Minneapolis. The shooting sparked weeks of intense protests in the city.

That incident, along with a separate fatal shooting by Border Patrol of Alex Pretti this week, remain under investigation by federal authorities.

DEMOCRATIC OFFICIALS, TIKTOKERS, LIBERALS TAKE THEIR ANTI-ICE RHETORIC TO THE NEXT LEVEL

While Ice-T said the lyric change was a personal protest, he criticized celebrities who speak on the issue for publicity.

“Don’t let your publicist tell you, ‘Speak on this topic.’ Because if you’re not educated enough to speak on it, you’re going to end up caught out there,” he said.

Ice-T has been outspoken about his opposition to ICE. TMZ reported that while in New York City on Tuesday, he told fans, “Stand strong and stay out the way. These cats will kill you.”

Woman killed, set on fire after being lured to fake puppy sale, police say; three arrested

A South Carolina woman was shot and her body set on fire after she was lured to what police say was a fake puppy sale.

Two suspects, Iryanna Jarissa Fleming, 19, and Daquinn Taheen Thomas, 31, were arrested on Jan. 23 and charged with murder, first-degree arson and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime, according to jail records.

Authorities said the investigation is ongoing and additional charges could be filed.

She was then shot in the head before a liquid substance was poured on her body and ignited inside the vehicle.

Deputies were called to Atlantic Road near Springbranch Road in Effingham, South Carolina, on Jan. 22 where a vehicle was found on fire with a deceased person inside.

Joye told Fox News Digital that investigators believe the killing was an act of retaliation tied to another murder in neighboring Darlington County in which Kinlaw’s son is believed to have been involved.

All three are being held without bond.

Actor draws backlash after telling ICE supporters ‘don’t watch my movies’

John Leguizamo is drawing a clear line in the sand.

The actor, known for his roles in movies like “Moulin Rouge!” and “Romeo + Juliet,” shared a pointed message on Instagram Wednesday, making one thing clear: If any of his fans support ICE, he doesn’t want them as fans.

“If you follow ICE, don’t follow me, don’t come to my shows, and don’t watch my movies,” Leguizamo said in a short video that he captioned, “Abolish ice!”

Several of his Instagram followers voiced their support, with one calling him “a good man.”

“Bout to go put on Romeo + Juliet right now King,” another fan wrote.

Others were more critical. One person commented, “Sure, I’ll just get in my time machine and go back to the 90s where you had 2 watchable movies in total.”

“No problem big dawg didn’t watch anyways,” read another reply.

Talk show host Joe “Pags” Pagliarulo weighed in as well, telling the actor, “You think you have more of an impact than you do. This take is so completely unintelligent it hurts. Maybe just say words people write for you. You’re better at that.”

Fox News Digital has reached out to Leguizamo for comment.

Leguizamo is hardly the first celebrity to join the national conversation on ICE, or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Following the fatal shootings of anti-ICE agitators Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis this month, several stars have used their platform to speak about the issue, with many critical of the situation.

Natalie Portman spoke with Deadline this week at the Sundance Film Festival, stating, “What’s going on in our country right now is absolutely horrific with what the federal government, Trump’s government, Kristi Noem, ICE, what they are doing is really the worst of the worst of humanity.”

“Fatal Attraction” star Glenn Close spoke out in a video post to her 1 million Instagram followers, saying she felt “compelled” to say something after what transpired in Minneapolis. “I am outraged and sickened by what is happening under the Trump regime: the cruelty, inhumanity, and arrogance, the voracious corruption, the cowardice, the sickening hypocrisy, the blatant manipulation of facts, and now the cold-blooded murder of American citizens,” she said.

Meanwhile, Dean Cain, who was signed in as an honorary ICE officer last year, has been regularly sharing posts and videos in support of the law enforcement agency.

When Ethan Hawke commented to Variety this week, “There’s a kind of fear in the air that I’ve never felt before, and it’s not America,” Cain quipped, “Try being a conservative, pal.”

Brooklyn Beckham shares racy photos of wife as feud with Victoria, David Beckham simmers

All is well in Brooklyn Beckham’s world.

Brooklyn, 26, took to Instagram to share some photos of his wife Nicola Peltz as the two shared dinner. The post included a racy photo of Peltz in bed. He kept the post playful, adding no caption.

The son of Victoria and David Beckham seems to be going about life as normal while the family feud reportedly continues to escalate behind the scenes.

BROOKLYN BECKHAM REPORTEDLY FACES HARSH ULTIMATUM FROM DAVID AND VICTORIA AMID DEEPENING FAMILY RIFT

While David and Victoria have yet to publicly address the privacy breach, sources told People that the couple would still consider reconciliation with their oldest child, under one alleged condition: Peltz is out of Brooklyn’s life for good.

“The Beckhams have no intention of reconciling with their son unless Nicola is out of the picture,” a source claimed to the outlet. “But that’s not an ultimatum he’s going to cave on. Brooklyn has felt more support from his wife in these past three years than from his parents in his entire life.”

Brooklyn initially called out his pop star mom and soccer player father in a series of scathing Instagram stories.

“I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private,” Brooklyn wrote in his Jan. 19 social media rant. “Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed. I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”

The 26-year-old alleged that his parents had been trying to sabotage his relationship with Peltz long before their wedding.

“My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped,” he wrote.

In addition to Brooklyn, Victoria and David share sons Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 21, along with daughter Harper, 14.

Protesters mistakenly confront federal air marshals, thinking they are ICE agents

A group of anti-ICE agitators mistakenly heckled three federal air marshals who they thought were U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents eating dinner at a Los Angeles-area restaurant Wednesday night. 

The agents, who are part of the Transportation and Security Administration (TSA), protecting passengers and crew on U.S. aircraft, were dining when a group of people gathered outside Ten-Raku, a Korean BBQ restaurant in the Plaza Mexico shopping center in Lynwood.

A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security told Fox News Digital that the TSA employees were “surrounded and viciously harassed by a frenzied mob.”

“These agitators were incited by left-wing politicians who believe all employees of the Department of Homeland Security should be targeted and attacked for supporting President Trump and Secretary Noem’s mandate from the American people to enforce our nation’s immigration laws,” the spokesperson said. 

A woman believed to be one of the organizers of the protest told Fox 11 that the group thought the TSA agents were “potentially” ICE employees. She then followed a Fox 11 reporter inside the restaurant and told workers not to speak with him. 

ANTI-ICE AGITATOR ALLEGEDLY BITES OFF FEDERAL OFFICER’S FINGER DURING MINNEAPOLIS ATTACK

“Yeah, sorry to you,” she said. “Nobody’s going to talk to you.” 

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department was called to the scene to restore control. The TSA agents were escorted out of the restaurant and no one was arrested or harmed. 

“Deputies responded to ensure public safety, de-escalated the situation, and facilitated a safe resolution without incident,” the sheriff’s department told Fox News Digital. 

The agency noted that it doesn’t participate in any civil immigration enforcement activities. 

The TSA agents were seen speaking with sheriff’s deputies outside the restaurant as they were shouted down by the demonstrators outside. 

“F****** goofys,” one woman is heard shouting. 

“We’re TSA,” another woman is heard saying in a mocking tone. 

The TSA blamed elected officials opposed to the enforcement of immigration laws for rhetoric against federal law enforcement personnel. 

“The mob believed these TSA officials were ICE agents,” TSA spokesman Nick Dyer told Fox News Digital. “They were not, but the message to Americans is clear: agitators and politicians who fan the flames of hatred are tacitly endorsing violence against every Department of Homeland Security employee.”

“It is reprehensible, but not surprising, that certain pro-illegal-alien politicians are willing to let our employees be collateral damage in their campaign for open borders. The violent rhetoric that is fanning these flames must stop,” Dyer added. 

After the chaotic scene, a customer outside the restaurant told the local news outlet that immigration enforcement operations are “emotional” but that “there is a place and time for everything.”

DEMOCRATIC OFFICIALS, TIKTOKERS, LIBERALS TAKE THEIR ANTI-ICE RHETORIC TO THE NEXT LEVEL

“It happens! You take it out on the wrong people, which, same thing as ICE. They say they’re after criminals, but they’re taking it out on everybody,” the man added. 

Fox News Digital has reached out to ICE, TSA and the Department of Homeland Security. 

Wednesday’s incident wasn’t a one-off. In Minneapolis, where tensions have flared over ICE operations and two deadly shootings involving anti-ICE agitators, a group of software engineers were heckled while eating lunch after they were mistaken for ICE agents. 

The men – all white males dressed casually in sweatshirts and jackets — were eating lunch at Clancey’s Deli when one of them got an alert on an anti-Ice Signal chat telling members that plainclothes agents were at the restaurant, Alpha News reported. 

One of the men, who is politically aligned with the anti-ICE cause, received the message on a Signal chat. 

“My friend was shocked. He’s on the [anti-ICE] side politically. He lives nearby. He’s eaten there before. And suddenly he’s seeing messages saying we’re ICE,” a man who gave his name as Lee told the outlet.

 Once outside, the men were met on the street with heckles from the crowd. 

“You’re a f—— bootlicker b—-!” one of the agitators can be heard.

“Get out of our f—— neighborhood!” screamed another.

Sydney Sweeney slips on her newly dropped lingerie designs in eye-popping photos

Sydney Sweeney continues to take the internet by storm with the launch of her new lingerie line, Syrn. 

On Thursday, the “Euphoria” actress — who dropped her line on Jan. 28 — left fans reeling over her risqué lingerie photos.

“THE TRUE STAR OF HOLLYWOOD!!!!” one fan commented on Instagram.

SYDNEY SWEENEY TURNS UP THE HEAT WITH JAW-DROPPING PHOTOS AHEAD OF LINGERIE LINE LAUNCH

“She just killed the game,” another added.

“You’re simply gorgeous!!!” one fan wrote, with another dubbing Sweeney as a “GODDESS.”

On Tuesday, the 28-year-old actress took to social media to announce the Jan. 28 launch of Syrn (pronounced “sye-rin”) with sizzling new promotional photos.

“I was in the 6th grade with DDs. I hated the bra I had to wear,” Sweeney said in a statement via a press release obtained by Fox News Digital. “When I bought my first cute bra that actually fit, I wore it to pieces. Designing for different bodies is a huge part of Syrn.”

“I wanted to create a place where women can move between all the different versions of who we are,” she continued. “I love working on cars, I go waterskiing, I’ll dress up for the red carpet then go home to snuggle my dogs. I’m not one thing, no woman is.”

“Lingerie is such a fun way to express yourself,” she added. “You get to feel feminine, and you get to feel powerful. You get to keep it all for yourself, if you want.”

Syrn offers 44 sizes, ranging from 30B to 42DDD, with most styles under $100. The lingerie line is structured into four core personas that shape the style of the pieces: Comfy, Playful, Romantic and Seductress.

The Emmy-nominated actress has been working on a lingerie line that has received backing from Jeff Bezos and his wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos, a source familiar with the matter told Us Weekly last year. 

“This has been a huge project for her and something she’s been working on for the last year,” the source said. 

Her brand was also backed by Ben Schwerin, a partner at private equity firm Coatue. 

The private equity firm recently launched a fund focused on investing in high-growth public and private tech companies. The family offices of Bezos and PC company founder Michael Dell have committed to provide $1 billion of the initial capital for the fund, according to The Wall Street Journal.

A pitch deck viewed by the Journal indicated the fund aims to invest between 20% to 50% of its assets in private investments, with the rest earmarked for public stocks. 

BUNDLE OF JOY: Formula reveals how tall initial Trump Account balance could grow

The Trump administration is rolling out the new “Trump Accounts” that will aim to provide children with a jump start on savings and investment that could grow into a substantial nest egg by the time they reach adulthood.

Trump accounts are tax-advantaged savings accounts that the administration created through the enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which provided funding to seed $1,000 from the government into Trump accounts for children born between Jan 1, 2025, and Dec. 31, 2028. 

An analysis by the White House’s Council of Economic Advisors (CEA) shows that based on historical average returns on the U.S. stock market, Trump accounts could grow into a substantial nest egg by the time a child turns 18, depending on how much is contributed over time. The funds could then be used to help pay for education expenses, a down payment on a home, or a jump start on retirement savings.

The accounts will be invested in a broad U.S. stock index fund, like the low-cost funds available in many retirement accounts, and will be in the child’s name with their parents or guardian serving as the custodian of the account until they turn 18. 

HOW TO KNOW IF YOUR CHILD QUALIFIES FOR A TRUMP ACCOUNT: ‘A FINANCIAL STAKE IN THE FUTURE’

Parents may contribute up to $5,000 per year to the accounts, while a parent’s employer can contribute up to $2,500 per year without impacting the employee’s taxable income.

If maximum contributions are made to a Trump account belonging to a child born in 2026, the CEA estimates that the Trump account would reach $303,800 by age 18 and $1,091,900 by age 28 in a medium-returns scenario.

In a low-returns scenario, maximum contributions to a Trump account would have a balance of $187,400 by age 18 and $772,200 by age 28. In the CEA’s high-returns scenario, balances would jump significantly to $730,400 by age 18 and $1,904,300 by age 28.

JPMORGAN CHASE TO OFFER $1K MATCH FOR TRUMP ACCOUNTS BELONGING TO EMPLOYEES’ KIDS

If no contributions are made to a Trump account belonging to a child born in 2026 beyond the $1,000 in seed money provided by the government, the account balance would reach $5,800 by the time they turn 18 years old, while the continued compounding growth would have the account reach $18,100 by age 28, according to the CEA’s medium-returns scenario.

Without contributions, the low-returns scenario would leave the Trump account balance at $2,577 at age 18 and $10,607 at age 28. 

In the high-returns scenario, the Trump account with no additional contributions would be at $21,229 at age 18 and $40,179 at age 28 in the high-returns scenario. 

BESSENT UNVEILS ‘TRUMP ACCOUNT’ DETAILS, ANNOUNCES PHILANTHROPIC CHALLENGE

Trump accounts are also available to children born before Jan. 1, 2025, who are under the age of 18 – although they won’t receive the $1,000 deposit from the federal government. The CEA notes that because they are older and would have fewer years of accumulated returns before turning 18 or 28, their account balances would be meaningfully lower on average.

The Trump administration has indicated that Trump accounts will officially launch on July 5, 2026. Parents may enroll their child in the program by making an election when they file their taxes.

A number of companies have offered to match parents’ contributions or otherwise provide seed money to the Trump accounts belonging to employees’ children, while some philanthropists have also committed to donate funds to help seed the accounts.

Video shows illegal immigrants tied to viral bridge gunfire, road-rage shooting: police

A viral video showing gunmen firing from a Dallas bridge on New Year’s has now led to multiple arrests and immigration holds as police say the suspects were involved in repeated acts of gun violence across North Texas.

The Dallas Police Department announced the arrests Tuesday, identifying Anthony Acevedo, 20, and Jose AlarconSanchez, 18, both of Grand Prairie, as two of the suspects seen in multiple social media videos firing guns from the Margaret McDermott Bridge over Interstate 30, just west of downtown Dallas. 

The reckless gunfire, captured on camera and viewed worldwide, according to police, sparked immediate public outrage and a large-scale investigation.

Detectives with DPD’s Central Patrol Division and Special Investigations Unit launched what police described as an aggressive and exhaustive investigation, working alongside the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Investigators recovered more than 100 shell casings near the bridge.

OFF-DUTY ICE AGENT TAKES DOWN ARMED MAN FIRING RIFLE AT LA APARTMENT COMPLEX

During the investigation, detectives learned AlarconSanchez had been arrested earlier that same morning by the Grand Prairie Police Department for a similar firearms offense on January 1, 2026.

As the case expanded, investigators uncovered evidence linking 25-year-old Anderson Derce Lara to a separate road-rage shooting in November. Police say Derce Lara fired multiple rounds into a vehicle carrying three adults and three children, narrowly missing the victims.

With assistance from the ATF, investigators executed a search warrant and recovered multiple firearms, including rifles matching those seen in the viral bridge video, further tying Derce Lara to both incidents.

Acevedo and AlarconSanchez are charged with discharge of a firearm in certain municipalities, a class A misdemeanor. Derce Lara faces six counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a first-degree felony.

Police said Acevedo has been released on bond, while AlarconSanchez and Derce Lara are being held on immigration detainers.

“If you put lives at risk in Dallas, we will identify you, investigate thoroughly, and hold you accountable,” Dallas Police Chief Daniel Comeaux said.

The investigation remains ongoing.
