US EditionImpeachment Articles Drafted Against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz
Four articles accuse Gov. Walz of enabling $9 billion in fraud, obstructing investigations, and prioritizing politics over public funds, with a House vote set for February 17.
- On Jan. 12, 2026, State Representative Mike Wiener filed a resolution containing four articles of impeachment accusing Minnesota Governor Tim Walz of corrupt conduct, which he provided to Newsweek while GOP House members signaled plans to pursue impeachment on X.
- Merrick Garland's DOJ traced $250 million in fraud to Feeding Our Future nonprofit, with officials citing up to $9 billion or more in stolen federal funds.
- The four articles contend Walz knowingly allowed fraud concealment under Article I, failed cooperation with audits in Article II, prioritized politics in Article III, and weakened safeguards in Article IV.
- With a 67-67 House split, Wiener says he needs one Democrat support, and conviction requires passage in both chambers and a two-thirds Senate majority, which Shanahan calls unlikely: `In these hyper-partisan times, there's no way they could gain the necessary two-thirds majority necessary to convict Walz in a Senate trial`.
- Lawmakers will vote when the legislative session begins Tuesday, February 17, 2026, amid national attention that led Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to end his reelection bid and resignations of respected career attorneys during ongoing federal probes.
