Hillary Clinton — who once falsely claimed she took sniper fire in Bosnia — attempted to come to the rescue of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democrat vice presidential candidate.
Walz is facing scrutiny for exaggerating his military service and choosing to retire from the military after he knew his unit — of which he was the senior enlisted leader — would deploy to Iraq.
“Tim Walz served honorably for two decades. Then he joined Congress and worked to pass a new GI bill that helped fund the college educations of millions of veterans—among them, JD Vance,” Clinton posted on X on Monday.''

The post did not address Walz’s false claims over the last two decades of being a retired command sergeant major when he actually retired at a rank below.
Nor did her post address Walz’s false claim that he carried weapons “in war” when he never served in combat.
And the post did not address Walz retiring from his then-military contract early, just months before his unit he served in as a leader deployed to Iraq.
Clinton turned replies to the post off as she has with other recent posts on X.
Since Vice President Kamala Harris chose Walz as her running mate, he has been under siege with questions about his military service, which he has touted throughout his political career, beginning in 2006 when he was elected to Congress.
He also falsely claimed he was the highest ranking senior enlisted to serve in the U.S. Congress.
He has implied he deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan on numerous occasions, and never corrected anyone when they wrongly asserted he had deployed to either location.

P
So he was a member of the National Guard? If you’re in the NG do you have to show up every day or just on weekends and/or when you’re deployed?
I’m worried that this “Tukey” may decide to bow out and then Kamala would be able to replace him with a viable candidate like the PA Governor.
Hillary Clinton’s husband was a draft dodger; how is she qualified to opine on this and “defend” Walz?
Well…if HILLARY CLINTON is an apologist for Waltz…that’s all that needs be said.
He valiantly protected her from lethal sniper fire on the tarmac in Bosnia. So Hillary is just returning the favor - she's that kind of a person
Because she’s the expert on phony stories!

Hillary “misspoke”
So, one serial liar (a typical Democrat) defending another serial liar (also a typical Democrat) when they lie about having served the nation.
Note to Hillary: Serving honorably does not include or equate to lying about that service in order to gain more power, via the Vice Presidency, over the people you are lying to. But then, you wouldn’t know about that not so subtle differentiation... since you, yourself, have lied about pretty much everything under the sun in your dishonorable ‘service to the nation’.
Hillary Clinton’s endorsement…..
“I’m a lying, thieving, bullying, cheating, murdering, dirty little snot and I endorse Tim because I see a lot of me in him.”
LOL...”misspoke” is a common affliction of Democrat pols.
This proves that the Democrats are starting to sweat, irregardless of what the propaganda ministry (media) is saying.
Having come under direct enemy fire in Bosnia, Hillary is well qualified to defend stolen valor.
I doubt that this is helpful.
As we recall, she did come under fire in a war zone
>>how is she qualified to opine on this and “defend” Walz?
Well, Hitlery DID once claim that she bravely dodged sniper fire in Bosnia.
An oldie but a goodie.
