Speaking to a crowd of veterans on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz talked about his time in the National Guard and missing a year of his daughter's life, then immediately followed that reference with a story about standing on the tarmac at Bagram Air Base and watching a ramp ceremony, and the emotional effect that had on him.
If listeners knew nothing else about Walz, they'd believe that he missed a year of his daughter's life because he deployed for combat and saw some hard things. But, as we all know now, that's not the case. He deployed to Italy

Anyone old enough to remember when stuff like this would have deep sixed Walz' political aspirations within hours?

I say this in the kindest way possible, Walz is a yellow, commie-loving fatherless child who deserves second place behind Harris. Not that either of them will get the prize they seek. (Unless hell freezes over and all the little devils go ice skating.) He adds a new dimension to Yellow Dog Democrat.

What are the odds they dump him for Kelly at the convention? Which is worse? Sticking with a bad pick or rewriting the ticket over and over for a new honeymoon period? Did they not vet this guy? Are they intentionally looking for a reason to lose? Is it just utter incompetence? Honestly, I can’t figure out their game.

Somewhere in Walz's embellished stories there is probably one that has him charging a nest of terrorists, guns blazing in both hands and drawing his knife to finish them off after he runs out of ammo. Guys like this never stop at just being there. Lt. Jon Carry could not be reached for comment.

You think that Democrats care? Stolen valor is the only type they have.

Citing CNN (“last night”) to contradict the host was a kill shot.
Not for nothing, I think we’ve found that “lying, dog-faced pony soldier” we heard Traitor Joe talk about

“I stood one night in the dark of night on the tarmac at Bagram and watched a military ramp ceremony.”
That cannot be dismissed as a misspoke, selective edit or taken out of context. And there is more. With corrupt guys like Walz there is no end to the stories.

Like during the days of the Clinton presidency we’ll soon be treated to MSM stories about how lying is really a good thing that, after all, everyone does.

I reread the article. From last paragraph; “Walz apparently participated in a ramp ceremony during a January 2008 Congressional visit to Afghanistan and Pakistan related to healthcare for veterans, but as a member of the House of Representatives since he had already been retired from the National Guard for a few years at that point.”
Walz has deniability. This Red State story is apparently misleading.

No surprise here. This is what they do. Remember when PIAPS landed under sniper fire in Bosnia?

Clearly Biden and Walz have a big something in common, they both lie about their careers big time, and have been getting away with that! But when the truth comes out, what do foreign leaders think of them and what are the chances that they will follow through with promises made during important negotiations with foreign leaders, not to mention what foreign peoples think when they watch those US politicians lies being uncovered on international TV.

He has a memory problem just like Biteme. At least Biteme has an excuse because of dementia. What's Walz excuse?

And the press belittled Dan Quayle for simply serving in the National Guard.

Very true, #17. The DNC/MSM also had a virtual feeding frenzy over President George W. Bush's Texas Air National Guard service and criticized him soundly and roundly about his not being man enough to join the regular Air Force and deploy to Viet Nam. Instead the DNC/MSM through their useful idiot, Dan Rather, found a lone goofball in Texas who claimed to have "found the smoking gun" regarding GWBush's avoidance of deployment to Viet Nam, except for that damned Microsoft Times Roman Font the "smoking gun" DoD Order was written in.
Interestingly we're not hearing ANYTHING from DNC/MSM about, "Deployment Avoidance," this electi
JD Vance should challenge Tarmac Tim to a release of Military Records. Lift the veil and allow the American public to be the judge!

Comrade Walz is an outright liar. No surprise. It's Democrat street cred.

#19, I'd be happy just Walz' official photograph as Command Sergeant Major (or even Master Sergeant) and his PT cards. Betcha he was sluffing those tests, too.
