Hey all... I got tired of hearing “fraud” used as a catch-all justification for everything that happened here in Minnesota, without much interest in what actually happened, when it happened, how the numbers got inflated, or who was really responsible. So I wrote a piece about what really happened and uncovered some really surprising details:
• A real scandal got turned into a much bigger political story.
• The total fraud number is NOT what many people think it is.
• Some early “evidence” did not hold up the way it was sold.
• One overlooked part of this story changes where the blame lands.
If you want the fuller story, with sourcing, context, and a breakdown at the end of the piece that you can use to counter those people who say "BUT THE FRAUD!"... it is on my Substack.
