“Are you Governor of Minnesota, or Not?… Thank God You are Not the VP” — Rep. Nancy Mace HUMILIATES CLUELESS Tim Walz with Basic Math After 34,200% Autism Spending Scandal Under His Watch

Far-left Minnesota Governor Tim Walz found himself completely outmatched Wednesday during a fiery House Oversight Committee hearing, when Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) dismantled the Democrat governor with a series of basic questions including simple math he appeared unable or unwilling to answer.

The setting was the House Oversight Committee’s hearing titled “Oversight of Fraud and Misuse of Federal Funds in Minnesota: Part II,” and by the time Mace was finished, there wasn’t much left of Walz’s reputation as an “effective administrator.”

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier when Mace tested Walz on his grasp of basic reality.

“What is a woman? Have you learned that lesson?” Mace asked point-blank.

Walz, visibly agitated and refusing to provide a biological definition, lashed out: “I’m not here to be your prop for your obsession!”

Mace didn’t miss a beat. “If you can’t define woman, you certainly can’t define fraud!” she shot back, before pivoting to the cold, hard numbers that Walz clearly hoped would never see the light of day.

But the most memorable moment of the hearing came when Rep. Nancy Mace decided to test the governor’s knowledge of his own state and the results were humiliating.

Mace noted that in 2017, Minnesota spent approximately $1 million on these programs. By 2024, under Walz’s watch, that number skyrocketed to a staggering $343 million.

The humiliation continued as Mace exposed Walz’s total lack of awareness regarding his own constituents. While Walz bragged about “rankings,” he couldn’t provide the basic number of children residing in Minnesota, nor could he estimate how many are actually on the autism spectrum.

Then came the line that resonated across social media: “Thank God you’re not Vice President of the United States.”

Nancy Mace:
How much money was spent on autism in Minnesota in 2017, Governor?

Tim Walz:
I don’t have those numbers in front of me, Congresswoman.

Nancy Mace:
Did you prepare for this hearing today?

Did you do any preparation for this hearing today?

Tim Walz:
I did. I take Congress seriously.

Nancy Mace:
And you’ve seen the numbers about autism fraud in Minnesota. So we’re going to do some Minnesota math with you today, okay? Are you ready? How much money was spent in 2017 for autism in Minnesota? How much?

Tim Walz:
I don’t know. I wasn’t the governor.

Nancy Mace:
Okay. Did you not just say that you prepared for this hearing today? $1 million. Okay. A quick Google search, or using your AI, could tell you $1 million was spent. How much money was spent on autism in Minnesota in 2024?

Tim Walz:
I don’t have the number in front of me.

Nancy Mace:
Were you the governor in 2024?

Tim Walz:
I was, but I’m not the head of—

Nancy Mace:
So your excuse before was that you didn’t know what the 2017 autism numbers were because you were not governor, and today you can’t answer the numbers about 2024 as governor, and you still said you prepared for this hearing today. It’s unbelievable. $343 million was spent in 2024. What percent increase is that from $1 million to $343 million? What percentage increase is that?

Tim Walz:
I’m not here to be your prop. Go ahead and tell me.

Nancy Mace:
Well, are you governor of Minnesota or not?

Tim Walz:
Yes, I am. I’m not a prop for a member of Congress.

Nancy Mace:
You can sure as hell bet that I’m going to know the math. The math is a 34,200% increase—an increase of 343 times what it was in this time period. Do you know the number of children in Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
I know that Minnesota ranked as a top three state for children in the last year.

Nancy Mace:
What is the total population in Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
5.7 million.

Nancy Mace:
Okay. What is the total population of children in Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
I don’t have the number in front of me right now.

Nancy Mace:
Are you the governor of Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
I know 400,000 were cut out of healthcare last week by the actions you made.

Nancy Mace:
Are you the governor of Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
I am.

Nancy Mace:
And you don’t know the number of children residing in Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
I don’t have the specific number. It’s 5.7 million.

Nancy Mace:
That’s your total population.

Tim Walz:
What age? What is the age—0 to 5? 0 to 19?

Nancy Mace:
You have approximately 1.2 million children in Minnesota.

Tim Walz:
What age?

Nancy Mace:
I’m not even governor of South Carolina. Our population in South Carolina is 5.5 million. We have approximately 1.1 million children under the age of 18 in my home state of South Carolina. Okay, as governor, I expect you to know this information. Thank God you’re not Vice President of the United States. Do you know approximately how many children in Minnesota are autistic or on the spectrum?

Tim Walz:
No, I don’t. I don’t have that number.

Nancy Mace:
Okay, well, if you take the CDC’s roughly 1 in 36 kids who are on the spectrum, we’re talking about approximately 33,000 kids. In South Carolina, it’s about 31,000 or so. Do you know what this is per child, spending-wise, in the fraud for autistic kids in Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
Again, I’m not here to be your prop. Go ahead and tell us.

Nancy Mace:
Is doing Minnesota math a prop? This is math. We’re talking about fraud.

Tim Walz:
Minnesota ranks at the top. Where does South Carolina rank?

Nancy Mace:
We’re talking about money.

Tim Walz:
Where do South Carolina children rank on healthiness?

Nancy Mace:
These are my questions for you. It doesn’t go the other way around unless we’re debating on a debate stage, and we’re not.

Tim Walz:
If you’re asking questions about being governor, it does. When you’re governor, you can come and tell me.

Nancy Mace:
I’m asking you questions about being governor of Minnesota, which you can’t answer. This is basic math, and you can’t even answer. Do you even care about kids in Minnesota?

Tim Walz:
They rank near the top in every category. My children are fed. My children are housed. My children have healthcare. My children have the best schools.

Nancy Mace:
Do you care about autistic children getting the services they need in Minnesota? Clearly, you don’t.
