Resign @GovTimWalz Tampon Tim! Video surfaced with Tim Walz claiming “when I was in Afghanistan”! Tim Walz should resign in disgrace! He was NEVER in Afghanistan! Liar!

Since choosing Minnesota Gov. Tim “Stolen Valor” Walz as her running mate, incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris has seen her lead in Minnesota cut in half. Back in July, just after Kamala’s coup successfully drove His Fraudulency Joe Biden out of the presidential race, Kamala enjoyed a ten-point lead over former President Trump. A KTSP/SurveyUSA poll had Kamala sitting comfortably at 50 percent support to Trump’s 40 percent. Much has happened since that poll was taken between July 23-25. Namely, she chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate. She also enjoyed a four-day campaign commercial known as a...

Earlier, we shared with you Tim Walz’s pathetic excuse for decades of stolen valor. Here it is, again, in case you missed it: CNN REPORTER: You said you carried weapons in war, but you never deployed to war. TIM WALZ: I'm proud of my service and my record. I speak candidly. I wear my emotions on my sleeve. REPORTER: The idea you were in war. Did you misspeak? WALZ: My grammar's not always correct. pic.twitter.com/QPssoHSIov — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) August 30, 2024 We will go as far as to say no one believed that excuse—or that the number of people...

Democrat Maryland Gov. Wes Moore has apologized for falsely labeling himself a Bronze Star recipient on a White House application in 2006. Though Wes Moore served in the Army Reserve between 1996 and 2014, deploying to Afghanistan between August 2005 and March 2006, winning the National Defense Service Medal, he stated on his 2006 application for a White House fellowship that won a Bronze Star. He never received such an award. According to documents obtained by the New York Times, Moore said on his application, “For my work, the 82nd Airborne Division have awarded me the Bronze Star Medal and...

Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz blamed his “passion” for his exaggerated claims of carrying “weapons of war … in war” when asked to address the controversy Thursday in CNN’s interview with the Democratic ticket. The Minnesota governor and 24-year National Guard veteran made the comment suggesting he had combat experience in an anti-gun violence video in 2018, which recently resurfaced. I speak candidly. I wear my emotions on my sleeves, and I speak especially passionately about about our children being shot in schools and around, around guns,” he told CNN’s Dana Bash. “So I think people know me. They...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz served in the National Guard for 24 years, rising through the enlisted ranks and receiving an honorable discharge. It is a record seen as one of his political strengths. Republicans are trying to turn it into a weakness. They have seized on criticism from former National Guard members denouncing Walz, the Minnesota governor, for retiring from the military in 2005 to run for Congress shortly before his unit was deployed to Iraq and for overstating the rank he held after he left the service. They also have pointed to a comment...

A CNN panel on Thursday urged vice presidential nominee Tim Walz to apologize for misrepresenting his military rank. Fifty congressional Republicans with military backgrounds called on Walz Wednesday to publicly address “egregious misrepresentations” about his 24-year Army National Guard service, and accused him of falsely claiming to be a “Retired Command Sergeant Major,” despite allegedly not completing the requirements. CNN political commentators David Urban, Van Jones and Alyssa Farah Griffin, on “CNN News Central,” each advocated for Walz to take ownership of his misstatements, saying it would be politically beneficial for him to do so.

Dear Master Sergeant (Ret.) Walz: Wow, there sure has been a lot of fuss and feathers over your military service; lots of stories, lots of videos, lots of nagging doubts about your record big guy. First of all, thank you for your service in the Minnesota National Guard for 24 years. Nevertheless, let’s talk about some of the gaping, bleeding holes in your personal military narrative. Let’s discuss some issues that are really irritating veterans and especially combat veterans. You’re not a retired command sergeant major. While you served for a brief time as a command sergeant major, “You retired...

Fifty Republican military veterans serving in the U.S. Congress on Wednesday sent a letter to Democrat vice presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz (MN) harshly condemning his lies about his military service. They said in the letter, which was released as Walz readied to deliver remarks at the Democratic National Convention: The Office of the Vice President is a position that requires the trust of the American people and a solemn commitment to duty on behalf of the United States of America. As veterans who have served our nation, we feel compelled to address your egregious misrepresentations and urge you to...

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...

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was introduced as "Command Sergeant Major" despite not retiring with the title from the military at a meeting for the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Monday. The improper introduction comes as Walz has faced criticisms of "stolen valor" for using the title repeatedly during his political career. At the event on Monday, a woman spoke introducing Walz, saying, "I am so proud to welcome our vice-presidential candidate, soon to be nominee for vice president, Command Master Sergeant — and I'm going to start with the title that is very important to me — the Command Sergeant...

Just wondering, did you also “misprint” your rank as Command Sergeant Major on your Congressional Challenge Coin?

Democrats are eager to introduce Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to the country. He is a veteran who used the GI Bill to get to college, a former public-school teacher who coached high school football, and a two-term governor of a midwestern state with a record of accomplishments on behalf of working-class families. Republicans are just as excited. Despite his Rust Belt resume, they say Vice President Harris has selected a radical as her running mate. In an interview with RealClearPolitics, Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Whatley said, “Tim Walz is really, truly her ideological soulmate.” The emerging Republican plan to...

It appears that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has been caught red-handed. Amid growing evidence that Walz has lied about aspects of his military service, an act known as stolen valor, the Harris campaign has scrubbed claims that Walz had served as a “retired command sergeant major” from their campaign website. The Kamala Harris campaign scrubbed his bio page and replaced it with another bio. Here is the link to the original claims made by the Kamala-Walz campaign. This was another example of Stolen Valor – Walz was not a retired Command Sergeant Major. And here is the language on the...

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...

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Vice President Kamala Harris‘s running mate, may have known he was going to deploy before he used a “backdoor process” to get around his immediate superior in order to get his retirement approved.His superior, former Minnesota National Guard Command Sgt. Maj. Doug Julin, explained to CNN those details.Julin said his commander and himself, of the First Brigade 34th Infantry Division combat team, received a notification of sourcing in the fall of 2004. “We were informed that we would be alerted to go to Iraq within the next upcoming year, start preparing your team, getting your team...

Where are the MAGA attorneys filing lawsuits about the below listed issues that are glaringly illegal and unlawful? Thank you Colonel John Mills retired for this encapsulated summation of the crimes committed by the Harris usurpation of the presidency of the USA

As soon as I heard Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance smearing the military service of his opponent, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, all I could think was: Seriously? Are we really doing this again? Are we really going to allow Republicans — who are freaking out now that their presumed glide path back to the White House has become a very bumpy road — to slime Walz the way they slimed Vietnam veteran John Kerry 20 years ago? “When Tim Walz was asked by his country to go to Iraq, do you know what he did?” Vance said last week...

(snip...) And I think of all those emotions I went through when our country was attacked: 374 Minnesota in the Global War on Terrorism fear, anger, confusion, hope, pride, a desire for revenge, guilt. As for me, I was sitting in room 114 at Mankato West High School right before school started. And in a typical high school, there was the noise in the halls, and it was a new school year. But then kids started coming in and sitting in classrooms and the TV was on, and those events started to unfold, and that room got fuller and quieter...

Former commander retired Army Command Sergeant Major Doug Julin confirmed Friday that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, now the Democrat vice presidential candidate, knew months in advance he would deploy to Iraq well before choosing to retire and miss the deployment. In addition, Julin said that Walz assured him that, as a then-command sergeant major of his battalion, he would lead his battalion into Iraq. However, later on, Julin said he found out that Walz went around him — to two levels above him — to get his retirement approved before he could actually deploy.
