On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” host and NBC News Chief Washington Correspondent and Chief Foreign Affairs Correspondent Andrea Mitchell stated that 2024 Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) hasn’t been attacking his Democratic counterpart, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (D), service, but has found “criticism, a lot of it verified, about the way he accounted for his service.”
While speaking to Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Mitchell said, “Talk to me about Tim Walz, because you know him so well. He’s the Governor of your state. And he’s being attacked, he’s a 24-year veteran of the National Guard, but JD Vance has found, not flaws with his service, but criticism, a lot of it verified, about the way he accounted for his service.”
Klobuchar responded, “Well, okay, so, first of all, I’m just thinking, fine, you spend your time attacking someone who spent 24 years, 24 years in the National Guard, signing up, like so many rural kids do, when he’s only 17 years old, and people love the National Guard. They get that you do get deployed at times, as Tim was with his unit, to Europe, but a lot of the work is at home, protecting the homeland, tornados, floods, hurricanes, fires. Tim Walz has served our country valiantly, and then decided, after 24 years, to run for Congress and became head of the Veterans’ Committee. You contrast that to Donald Trump, contrast it to a guy that’s gone after our vets as suckers and losers, went after John McCain for being a prisoner of war, and it is the Biden-Harris administration that passed the PACT Act.”

Trump never called our Vets losers. Another DNC lie.
Stupidity is terminal..............
mitchell is letting the guest say the incriminating part to protect her network from lawsuits.
klobuchar is a Stolen Valor apologist.
Nevermind Walz is an certified Manchurian candidate.
The hostess did not mention stolen valor. The audience does not know from this exchange that stolen valor is the topic, unless they already knew beforehand. And she did not challenge the “suckers and losers” lie. This is Democrat propaganda.
Trump should get back onto his old “China” thing. It served him well in ’16 and now he has Tiananmen Timmy as a foil.
Has anyone calculated how many of his 24 years of service in the NG were spent in China? Serving the US and Minnesota or serving the CCP? It seems his pension should be adjusted.
Is she a DNC spokeswoman?
VALIANTLY????
VALIANTLY???????????????
REALLY?
I haven’t seen Andria in awhile, when did she turn into a corpse?
Do Regular Army types view 24 years in the National Guard as being equivalent to 24 years in the Regular Army?
I miss the way Rush used to pronounce her name - with a harsh nasally tone - fit her perfectly.

During the segment, Limbaugh quotes part of the article which states: “It is no secret but public knowledge that Kamala Harris slept her way up into California political life by being a very public escort and mattress for California Democrat kingmaker Willie Brown.”
Limbaugh adds: “Now, some people read this story and said, ‘Mattress? Didn’t he mean mistress?’ No, I think, they meant mattress here.
I doubt their was sleeping or mattresses involved when Willie used her body.
Minnesota Stupid
If you are a democrat libtard and have have lost Andrea Mitchell you are speeding downhill with the bottom in sight.
Wishing Rush Limbaugh was still around to say “Andrea Mitchell” in his special way, just once more.
I served 3 years in both. There aren't many senior NCO’s who weren't active army at one time or another. To answer your question, it depends on the service. Many National Guard have been deployed since beginning of the first Gulf War. In fact, the National Guard unit I was in was deployed to Saudi Arabia two years after my enlistment was up. Apparently Walz is a veteran so he had to serve in active duty for 180 continuous days at least once.
