CNN is reporting this????
When is Trump going to put out ads? Are they being banned?
A-Walz.
Well, he might survive with the current Orwellian media that chucks everything down the memory hole. But with the internet, that’s a tall task.
I’m guessing he’ll have to go after enduring all the negative ads that are sure to flood the airwaves. We shall see. I don’t make any predictions anymore in this insane environment.
CNN ?? didn’t expect that
Hence his being awarded the Army Commendation Medal as a retirement award - unheard of, and even scandalous, for a senior NCO to receive such a low award after 24 years. Most senior NCOs normally get a Meritorious Service Medal or even a Legion of Merit if they are particularly squared away. It’s clear Walz’s chain of command considered him a turd and wanted him to know it.
Vindman and Kinzinger can just suck it. Lying sacks.
Typical lib
His troops may have had a blessing with him slithering away ... not much of a leader .... would have probably abandoned them in critical combat operations and then blamed someone else.
Not Eagleton yet...
This is just getting started....
We are just one molested student of “coach” away from game set match.
The question is will the Democrats wait around for that before they dump Walz.
By this time they must know he was and is an out of control pervert.
So... he Walzed out on his men.
I have several questions about the Walz debacle.
1. Was he flocked? Meaning that he was an E8 for pay, but held the E9 rank for the position. I had a first Sgt (E7) that was flocked as an E8 until retirement.
2. Did he actually get promoted but had to give it up because he chose retirement over finishing his schooling and getting deployed into combat?
3. Maybe he was an E8 serving as an ‘Acting’ command Sgt major.
I don’t know any of this cause of conflicting reporting. I do know the State’s National Gaurds have different rules and regulations.
I am not defending this POS cause he bailed on his men in time of need. But the circumstances demand further info for an informed decision.
Going into convention and having no VP would look bad for dems, their campaign is a disaster.
I remember reading about that episode, mostly hearing about it on the evening news, over and over again.
We, as a nation were so naive about treating severe depression, but even today, the fact that Tom Eagleton was hospitalized for depression and given electroshock treatment, even today, that would be an ‘eye opener’, and source of concerned vetting.
Coward, just like the deputy whose bodycam footage was released today.
He's ready to jump in.
The guy interviewed wasn’t Walz’s superior officer. He’s a now retired Sargent Major.
I have a rather basic question; did he “abandon his troops” as described, or did he simply refuse to re-enlist for another couple of years?
We haven’t been drafting men since the mid 70’s. It’s been a volunteer force. I volunteered myself for a few years. I signed the contract for a set number of years active, a set number of years as active reserve. Then I was done with direct obligations to the US Military. All legal and above board.
What happened here that has turned so many of his co workers against him?
A thousand percent! He will simply announce that he doesn't want to be a distraction, and she will pick another far left character. Bernie Sanders?
The Sergeant Major is known as “The Father” of the battalion.
