My candidate cares about the American people and the greed for wealth and power has nothing to do with their existence in the political arena. |

It is becoming more and more evident that Walz was not thoroughly vetted.
- His "misstatements" regarding his military experience - His DUI lies and attempted cover up - His close connection to communist China - His slow response to the riots in his city in 2020 - His lock down during Covid and his snitch line This guy is coming off as a fraud. |

Walz's 2006 campaign made misleading claims on drink-driving arrest Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate Tim Walz is facing backlash after reports revealed his 2006 congressional campaign made false claims about a drink-driving arrest when he was a high school teacher. A police officer in 1995 stopped Mr Walz, who was 31 at the time, in Nebraska for going 96mph (154km/h) in a 55mph zone. He pleaded guilty in March 1996 to a reduced charge of reckless driving. He lost his license for 90 days and was fined $200 (£154), the Associated Press reported. But in 2006, his campaign manager at the time told media that Mr Walz was not drunk when he was pulled over, falsely suggesting it was a misunderstanding. Mr Walz failed field sobriety and breath tests after the trooper smelled alcohol on his breath, court documents show. He was then transported to the hospital for a blood test where his blood alcohol level was 0.128% compared to the legal limit of 0.10%, according to court documents. Mr Walz told Minnesota's Star Tribune newspaper that he was watching college football with friends before his arrest. He was booked into the Dawes County jail. The recent backlash Mr Walz faces stems from how his former campaign aides from his 2006 congressional run described the incident to local media. His campaign manager at the time suggested Mr Walz was not drunk, saying he could not understand the trooper because of hearing loss from his time serving in the National Guard. The campaign manager also falsely claimed to the Rochester Post Bulletin that the judge who dismissed the case had criticized the arresting officer for not understanding that Walz had hearing loss. Walz had ear surgery in 2005 to fix his hearing loss, the Associated Press reported. But court records do not mention that Mr Walz struggled to hear the officer at the time of the arrest. His campaign at the time also claimed that Mr Walz was allowed to drive himself to jail on the night of the arrest, which was untrue. Mr Walz reportedly acknowledged that he was drunk at the time of the arrest. The BBC has reached out to the Harris-Walz campaign for comment. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2xy10qn22o.amp |

Tim Walz’s 2006 campaign falsely described details about his arrest for drunk driving in 1995
When Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz first ran for Congress in 2006, his campaign repeatedly made false statements about the details of his 1995 arrest for drunk and reckless driving. But in 2006, his campaign repeatedly told the press that he had not been drinking that night, claiming that his failed field sobriety test was due to a misunderstanding related to hearing loss from his time in the National Guard. The campaign also claimed that Walz was allowed to drive himself to jail that night. None of that was true. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/08/15/politics/tim-walz-2006-campaign-falsely-described-dwi-kfile |

| It’s entertaining to see the parade of attacks from right wingers. And like goldfish, they don’t remember that none of the attacks have stuck so they repeat the same attack. |

He went through three congressional races and two gubinatorial races and was vetted by the media. The issue is people listening to the BS of half truths that GOP is trying to make happen. |
