It is all going to come out. He never figured he would get big enough to get caught.

The gophers in MN may love him, but he will be exposed as the same fraud as Kamala. Stands for nothing, goes with the flavor of the month, will say what he thinks ppl want. It never works.

It's because local and statewide machines control all the newsrooms. Everyone in any given state knows which pols are frauds and compulsive liars, often with fabricated resumes, they're allowed to rise instead of being exposed because they're greenlit by the respective machine.

This is pretty low. Tucker, whose boarding school had a recently unearthed 80s pedo scandal involving male faculty and boy students, is smearing Tim.

Walz was fact checked publicly by his own wife. Huge red flag.

When Walz first ran for Congress in Minnesota, he touted on his campaign website that he received an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce in 1993 for his work with the business community, according to a 2006 article from the Post Bulletin.

He never received such an award, however, which was outlined to him in a blistering letter from the then-president of the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce, Barry L. Kennedy.

"We researched this matter and can confirm that you have not been the recipient of any award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce," the letter addressed to Walz on Nov. 1, 2006, reads.

"I am not going to draw a conclusion about your intentions by including this line in your biography. However, we respectfully request that you remove any reference to our organization as it could be considered an endorsement of your candidacy. It should be pointed out, however, that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has endorsed your opponent, Congressman Gil Gutknecht, for his support of small business issues," Kennedy continued.

The letter was unearthed by Minnesota outlet Alpha News last week, after the controversy gained traction locally in 2006.

Here you go, Russian trolls, the list of Tim Walz's lies:from Kevin Drum
Retired from the National Guard as a command sergeant major.
He did rise to the rank of command sergeant major, but upon retirement his rank reverted to master sergeant.

Had children via IVF.
Walz almost always refers only to "fertility treatments," but a couple of times has used the term IVF. In fact he and his wife underwent IUI, commonly referred to as IVF but actually a different, more affordable fertility treatment.

Won an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce (2006).
It was the Junior Chamber of Commerce,

Taught in China for a year through a program at Harvard University (2006).
It was a program affiliated with Harvard.

Earned the title of Nebraska Citizen-Soldier of the Year (1989).
He did indeed earn this award, but so did 51 other people. I'm not sure how this counts even under the strictest definition, but I'm including it for completeness.

Referred one time to "weapons of war, that I carried in war" (2018).
Has admitted this was a misstatement.

Denied he had been drinking when he was pulled over in 1995 for speeding (2006).
Possibly the only serious falsehood, from 18 years ago. However, he corrected the record himself six years ago when he ran for governor.

All in one place for you!

He was frocked as a CSM. The promotion was conditional on Walz graduating from SMA at FT Bliss. He didn’t go or dropped out-he won’t clarify which one- so according to military regulation he was NEVER a SGM or a CSM.

Walz knows this but insists on being addressed and referred to as CSM.

It’s very embarrassing he insists on being called CSM. He is a total ahole.

Military records would not ever refer to Walz as a CSM.

Your last statement is a lie, plain and simple. His complete military record would in fact indicate that he at one point in his career attained the rank of CSM. His retirement record is totally different from his retirement records and would indicate his lower rank for pension purposes. It is no different from a former SES attaining that rank but unable to hold onto it and retiring at the GS level or a someone who briefly held a senior SES rank retiring at a lower SES level. Your final SF-50 would show your last grade and title held before retiring. However, your EOPF record would indicate all the positions and ranks held in your employment record. So yes, Walz military records would indeed refer to CCM in his records.

You are completely wrong. Walz never passed go or received $200 as SGM or CSM. He was an e8 and that’s how he retired. E8s don’t become E9s until they graduate from SMA. Walz never did.

He made the E9 list. He didn’t graduate from the SMA. He was never an E9.

He served as his BN CSM for a few months, but that didn’t change his official rank.

Walz faces criticism for misleading IVF language
https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/4842488-walz-infertility-treatment-misleading-statements/amp/

Earlier this week, would-be second lady Gwen Walz shared that she and her husband opted for intrauterine insemination (IUI) to deal with infertility, not in vitro fertilization (IVF) as some of the governor’s prior remarks and statements had erroneously suggested.

You are being obtuse.

[Anonymous]

I don't get the military thing. I assume 99% of voters don't either. To military folks, does e9 sound that much better than e8? I don't get it. 20+ years of service is 20+ years of service. Was it the whole "first ever congressman with rank of e9" that he was trying to use? I assume there are lots of other e8 congressman before him?

[Anonymous]

He seems to have great difficulty telling the truth.

“His retirement record is totally different from his retirement records and would indicate his lower rank for pension purposes.“

Whatever you are trying to communicate is unclear, but no matter, you are wrong. His retirement records correctly reflect he was an e8 who made the e9 list for promotion, but because he didn’t successfully attend and graduate from SMA, he was always a Master Sgt e8. You don’t receive the e9 promotion until you graduate SMA.

His e8 rank is what he earned and is paid at as a retiree. He wasn’t promoted to e9 and then demoted when he retired. He was a CSM in name only when he served as BN CSM.

I know this because this exact scenario happened to me at e7. I served as a First Sergeant e8 ( that’s an e8 that has a Command, an e8 that doesn’t have a command like Walz is a Master Sgt.) I was an e7 in military records and pay despite serving as an e8 1sg. Fun fact: a lot of Soldiers don’t like frocking; they will refuse to address you by your frocked rank as you technically aren’t the frocked rank.

But Walz never was a CSM. He was always an e8. He was never promoted to e9, he only made the list to be eligible for e9 conditional upon his graduation from SMA. US Army HRC doesn’t promote you to e9 until you graduate SMA. It’s ridiculous you are trying to pretend Walz’s lie is a technicality- he’s straight up lying and he knows it.

So what?

There is a huge difference between IUI and IVF but you’ve all tried to hand wave it away with some bs excuses. “Everyone uses IVF as a catch all term!” No, they don’t. The catch all term is FERTILITY TREATMENT. Walz is the one who went through it. He of all people should know the correct term. He deliberately used IVF on purpose to score political points. He knows the difference between the two.

Nope. I believe he was the highest ranked waisted who served in Congress, even at E8.

So retired Master Sergeant Walz tells so many whoppers that his wife felt compelled to publicly set the record straight. That’s what.

Gwen Walz reveals she underwent a different treatment, not IVF
https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/08/20/politics/gwen-walz-fertility-struggles
CNN
—
Minnesota first lady Gwen Walz clarified in a statement to CNN that she did not use in vitro fertilization to conceive, sharing new details about her and Gov. Tim Walz’s fertility struggles as the governor has highlighted their experience with infertility on the campaign trail.

In her statement, Gwen Walz said they used a different fertility treatment, intrauterine insemination.

In campaign speeches since joining the Democratic ticket as Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate, Walz has often characterized the issue of access to IVF treatment as “personal” to him and his family while sharing the story of his and his wife’s journey to conceiving their two children.
