Minnesota National Guard confirms VP nominee Tim Walz demoted, calling into question official bio
Just The News ^ | 8/7/24 | Steven Richards

The Minnesota National Guard confirmed Wednesday that Gov. Tim Walz, Kamala Harris' vice presidential running mate, was demoted and did not retire as a command sergeant major like he has claimed for years, including on his official gubernatorial biography.

While Walz temporarily held the title of command sergeant major he "retired as a master sergeant in 2005 for benefit purposes because he did not complete additional coursework at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy," Army Lt. Col. Kristen Augé, the Minnesota National Guard’s State Public Affairs Officer, told Just the News.

Yep, we had an informative discussion on this last night. In Navy terms, he was frocked but retired before the promotion was completed. He's likely not entitled to be using the rank as he retired as a Master Sargent. See Here is a discussion many of us had last night, https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4256807/posts

The number of FReepers who dismiss this as something we shouldn’t talk about really makes me wonder who, exactly, is populating this site. Unbelievable.

Don’t think that if the heat from this gets a bit too hot, they won’t throw him overboard and go the Shapiro route after all!

Walz is a disaster as a governor and now apparently as a human being. Unfortunately, I don’t think anyone votes for a ticket based on the VP.

Good luck getting the Mainstream Media to report on it.

Compare and contrast with W’s DUI and National Guard experience.

As Commander in Chief of the Minnesota National Guard you can bet Walz will be punishing that Public Affairs spokesperson for releasing that information.

We need to check in later to see what retribution Walz inflicts on that poor soul.

It’s sadly so common that people lie and pretend they are important that we are being overwhelmed and immune. No longer is dishonor a sign of evil character.

Oh come on man, he just played a Biden. Wonder if he has any other bold ass lies in his closet?

Vance let him have it in Detroit today.

“Tell me what war was it that you carried that gun in?”

That’s going to hit home from someone that did carry a rifle into battle.

I smell a Thomas Eagleton.

A short list would be ... what has he NOT lied about. Same goes for every Marxist Democrat I’ve seen thus far. Not one of them can get next to the truth. Truth is not an option for them. Ever.

Lots of leftwing trolls patrolling this site. Since Biden dropped out, they have really been stepping up their activity.
