NBC News Pretty Much Confirms Tim Walz Lied About His Military Service
It's the Democrat media complex at work, though they’ve
become more shameless since the Obama era. After Donald Trump defeated
Hillary Clinton in 2016, there was a conscious effort to disregard the
truth to protect Democrats and help them no matter what. It’s the only
explanation for the flurry of ethical and overall journalistic
malpractice that we’ve seen, from the Russian collusion hoax to Hunter
Biden’s laptop; we do not hate the media enough for their overt
corruption.
And now, NBC News is reporting through some unnamed Kamala Harris
spokesperson that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who the vice president
selected as her running mate to appease the far-left elements of the
Democratic Party, lied about his military record:
Minnesota
Gov. Tim Walz "misspoke" in a 2018 video circulated by the Harris
campaign earlier this week that included the vice presidential candidate
talking about his handling of weapons "in war," a campaign spokesperson
said Friday.
The clarification comes after Republicans, led by
veteran and vice presidential candidate JD Vance, have attacked Walz
over his military record.
“Governor Walz would never insult or
undermine any American’s service to this country — in fact, he thanks
Senator Vance for putting his life on the line for our country. It’s the
American way," the Harris campaign spokesperson said in a statement.
"In
making the case for why weapons of war should never be on our streets
or in our classrooms, the Governor misspoke. He did handle weapons of
war and believes strongly that only military members trained to carry
those deadly weapons should have access to them, unlike Donald Trump and
JD Vance who prioritize the gun lobby over our children,” the
spokesperson added.
The video clip of Walz's previous remarks
shows him discussing gun control and referring to his own military
background. “We can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried
in war, is the only place where those weapons are at,” Walz says in the
clip posted by Harris’ campaign on Tuesday.
Walz's 24 years in
the military included serving overseas and supporting forward units, but
he was not deployed to a combat zone.
So, isn’t this an admission of stolen valor? To compound this matter,
CNN’s Laura Coates
interviewed Tim Walz's former Command Sergeant Major
Doug Julin, who gave a damning interview, indicating that the Minnesota
governor knew about his unit’s deployment to Iraq in late 2004, a good
six-to-seven months of foreknowledge before turning in his retirement
papers. It sure seems like the man cut and ran—literally.
