A Fox News segment featuring political commentator Joe Concha focused on growing scrutiny surrounding Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the Washington Post editorial board, and what Concha described as increasing federal pressure tied to alleged fraud investigations in the state.
During the segment, the Fox News host asked Concha for his reaction to a recent editorial decision by the Washington Post, framing it in the context of alleged misuse of federal programs.
“Likely for fraud of federal programs. Your reaction to the Washington Post editorial board?” the host asked.
Concha responded by questioning how Walz might explain criticism coming from a publication that has historically aligned with liberal politics and Democratic candidates.
“Well, you got to wonder, guys, if Governor Tim Walz will blame white supremacy for The Washington Post editorial board not exactly a bastion of conservative sentiment,” Concha said.
“An editorial board has never endorsed Republican presidential candidate in its history.”
Concha noted that the editorial board’s posture toward Minnesota leadership marks a notable development, particularly given its past political leanings.

“By the way, they’re now even calling out walls and other Minnesota state leaders,” Concha said. “And rightly.”
Concha tied that criticism to what he described as intensified action by the federal government under President Donald Trump, saying Minnesota has come under scrutiny due to alleged large-scale fraud.
“Because now you got to look at all the pressure from federal government under Donald Trump, and what he’s doing in putting the pressure on Minnesota,” Concha said.
“And rightly, given the billions of dollars that were stolen allegedly by members of the Somali community for many years.”
According to Concha, multiple federal agencies have taken steps affecting Minnesota programs as part of broader investigations.
“HHS has now cut off all child care funds,” Concha said.
“The Department of Agriculture now investigating SNAP. The Labor Department is now investigating unemployment insurance fraud.”
Concha also referenced law enforcement actions involving additional federal agencies.
“And Homeland Security Justice Department, they’re now executing search warrants in a door to door fashion,” he said.
“This is a full court press.”
Concha said the accumulation of investigations and enforcement actions has created significant political and legal risk for Walz, who was Kamala Harris’s vice presidential running mate in 2024.
“And I’ll leave it here,” Concha said.
“By the way, betting markets are now saying that Governor Tim Walz, again, a vice presidential candidate with Kamala Harris in 2024 not too long ago, he now has a 30 times more chance of being indicted than he does of winning the presidency the way this is going at this point.”
Concha closed his remarks with a pointed aside aimed at the host.
“Nate, I think you might put that at 30,000 times at this point,” he said.
