Cash payments will be waiting for whistleblowers who provide information related to Minnesota’s unfolding fraud scandal, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Friday.
The announcement of reward money comes as the Trump administration is pursuing wide-scale fraud investigations in Minnesota due to persistent allegations involving money-laundering schemes, pirating of federal human services funds, and other misuse of taxpayer money.
“We know that these rats will turn on each other,” Bessent told Fox News’s The Ingraham Angle on Friday.
“We are going to offer whistleblower payments to anyone who wants to tell us the who, what, when, where, and how this fraud has been done. I think that that will give us a great leap forward on how to get it done,” he added.
