Kristin Robbins, a Minnesota state legislator, posted several comments on her Twitter account in late July 2025 addressing local community events and expressing concerns about state governance and education.

On July 25, 2025, Robbins acknowledged the efforts of a local organization, stating: "A great night to cheer on Hamel Baseball! Thanks to the Hamel Lions for all you do to support our community! https://t.co/WddHHdtqin"

The following day, Robbins referenced allegations of fraud during Governor Tim Walz's administration. She wrote: "This is Acting US Attorney Joe Thompson’s conservative estimate. The fraud under @GovTimWalz could go even higher. https://t.co/QvR3I4HZP2" According to reports from the period, investigations into fraud related to state programs had intensified under the Walz administration.

In another post on July 26, Robbins criticized changes in educational priorities within Minnesota's Department of Education. She stated: "Under @GovTimWalz, the Dept of Ed has stopped prioritizing academic achievement, putting our students’ future at risk. 50% of Minnesota kids can’t read or do math at grade level. It is a crisis that must be addressed. https://t.co/MkWQdeGXng" Data from recent years has shown that standardized test scores in Minnesota have stagnated or declined for both reading and mathematics proficiency among students.

Robbins' posts reflect ongoing debates in Minnesota over government accountability and education policy during Governor Tim Walz's tenure.
