Vindman is a traitorous lying DBag and doesn’t know his fat azz from a hole in the ground. Why wasn’t he cashiered out after his lying BS caused the no conviction impeachment???? His actions were treason.

They’re full of feces. He failed the Command Sergeant Major exam, that’s why his false bio was scrubbed from Kamalamadingdong’s website.

Vance himself served in the Marine Corps for four years, and he also never saw combat.

He never claimed that he had.

The boy sure has no respect for the uniform or the UCMJ. In the U.S., you don’t put on a military uniform to go out to pimp for politicians. You’re supposed to be more honorable than that. You’re a soldier, NOT A POLITICIAN.

This has evolved into an issue over Walz's military service, which is nothing but a smoke screen for what he has really done.

The issue is whether or not Walz ever held the rank of Command Sgt. Major. He was not a CSM as he states. He was enrolled in a two year program at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy as a Master Sergeant. He did not complete the program.

Instead, once he got word his unit was going to be deployed he retired, citing the reason being he wanted to run for office. He retired with the rank of Master Sergeant, which was the rank he held when he enrolled in the Academy And as anyone familiar with the military knows, that's three ranks below a Command Sergeant Major. That's the equivalent of a Major claiming they are a Brigadier General.

Sorry. He failed the requirements for Command Sergeant Major, not the exam, my mistake.

” ending as a Command Sergeant Major”
As usual, Vindman is lying. Walz retired after being demoted to Master Sergeant.

Vance absolutely didn’t walk into a trap. Walz is on video misrepresenting. Vance called him out. Simple as that.

You’re called, you go. Period.
Vance did, Walz didn’t.

Vance has not denied this nor has he claimed it. He needs to make his service record crystal clear and in his own words before too many others do it for him in their words with their spin. He should have done this before he said one word about anyone else.

I guess Walz is okay with a Ukie-born liar, openly trying to make money off the current proxy war, sticking up for him. One traitor coming to the defense of another traitor. Walz lies, and Vindman swears to it.

I think it’s time we see Walz’s DD214, specifically his retirement rank.

Is Vance guilty of stolen valor?

No, and neither is Walz. Read that statutes that are collectively called the “stolen valor” laws and you will see that neither Vance nor Walz violated said statutes.

The term “combat correspondent” kind of says it. Think Private Joker. And ask Dan Rather, the great Marine...er, never mind about that, about combat correspondence.

He went unhesitatingly as ordered; Mad Dog Walz turned and ran, baiing on his men Kerry style..

End of debate.

Tim has lied about his military service and his rank, and that he is guilty of stolen valor.

No, Walz is not guilty violating the stolen valor statutes. Walz is however, guilty of being a lying piece of garbage.
