Tim Walz’s stolen valor scandal is growing.
Kamala Harris on Tuesday announced she chose Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to be her running mate.
Immediately after Walz was introduced as Kamala’s running mate, a video of him falsely claiming to be a combat veteran surfaced.
Walz’s stolen valor scandal is only getting worse and he refuses to answer questions from the press.
A 2007 video of Tim Walz falsely claiming he deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom has surfaced.
“I spent 24 years in the National Guard, some of that full-time. I was an artilleryman. I deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. My battalion provided base security throughout the European theater from Turkey to England in the early stages of the war in Afghanistan. And that same battalion is now in Iraq at this time,” Tim Walz said in 2007 on CSPAN.

Walz falsely claimed he served in combat in Iraq.
“We can make sure those weapons of war, that I carried in war, are only carried in war,” Tim Walz previously said.
Walz never deployed.

Yep, I saw two of those wingnuts doing just that on here last night. Stinkin’ Democrat moles.
Kamala’s supporters are traitors to the United States of America, so they don’t mind the stolen valor from Tampon Tim.
He probably was a driver for an embassy staffer or something.
He shall be known as Tim A-Walz!
Always the usual suspects.
As long as she leaves the tags on and keeps the receipt, she can make as many exchanges as she wants.
His phrasing was somewhat misleading, but he is 100% correct that he served, just not in Iraq, but in Italy. Everyone including Vance is confused about this. Some vets groups are trying to set the record straight about this.
Be ready for a barrage of negative stories on Vance.
Its so predictable, it will intensify
Is there a difference between deployment and mobilization?
Thanks,

Why do these guys who actually served feel the need to embellish his record. Al Gore never pretended to do much other than produce the “Stars and Stripes” newspaper during his service. But he served when a lot of guys avoided.
Kerry has to make a big deal about his “Three Purple Hearts” and rightly gets lambasted for his behaviour because he acted dishonorably.
If Walz just described what he was called to do, what he did, and his actual final rank, most of us would say “more than I did, ok”. But no, he has to embellish (i.e. LIE).
Yes - Air bases in Italy supported the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan
Get ready! Drumroll 🥁......
......”I miss spoke”

.” His lie is about carry a weapon in war and retiring as a Command Sergeant Major. He is using mobilization under Enduring Freedom funding to buttress the lie.”

I saw a pic of a young Walz...probably as a recruit, holding an M-16. It was a studio shot, and was being used as a meme about DJT’s lack of service.
Theer aren’t enough QueMala supporters for her to win.
Brown people and stupid white women will vote themselves more ‘free stuff’ and ‘government do something’ control over your life.
Freedom and Privacy are dead.
“Carolyn King, 56, from Ann Arbor said she wore her camouflage Michigan hat just to support Walz, a former teacher and coach, who served in the Army National Guard for 24 years.”
King came to the event with Mary Salata, 67, from Canton. Both King and Salata, both teachers, shared that their experience in education makes Walz even more exciting.
“We have a soft spot for him,” Salata said. “...I was glad (he was chosen) because he seems like someone that we can relate to ... I think he makes thoughtful decisions and ... I think that’s the kind of person we need.”
I know a guy that guarded the gate at a US Base and this was about 2001-2003. Never heard him say anything other than he enlisted and was a gate guard.
