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.

Says someone who has never had to endure either fertility treatment. I cannot with alll these snakes slithering from up under their rocks.

How do you know my fertility history? How do you know anyone’s personal health history?

What TF does having to personally undergo fertility treatments have to do with anything?

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.

“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.

The Guard disagrees with you.

After what we've listened to daily from Trump for the last 8 years, these minor issues from the last 30 years, seem like a breath of fresh air.

On the other hand, JD Vance
- claimed he was a never-Trumper, until his ambition told him not to be. And he now insults those who believe as he used to believe.
- once criticized Trump's actions leading up to and on January 6, but now insults anyone who says what he used to say and defends Trump's actions
- scrubbed his social media history on-line when he ran for the Senate to hide his previous political stances (which he flip-flopped on)
- claims to be raised with Appalachian culture, but in reality was raised in suburban Cincinnati
- claims to be raised by his single, substance-dependent mother, but, in fact, was raised by his grandparents and only infrequently saw his substance-dependent mother
- made up the above two lies to sell a largely embellished memoir which became a best-seller

JD Vance claims to be fighting for the working class, but typically takes the opposite side:
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/jd-vance-is-the-real-class-enemy.html

Vance says he is fighting a class war on behalf of workers, but his record suggests otherwise. When he does intervene in matters of class, it’s often on the side of the elites. He showed up to a UAW picket line in Ohio, but opposes the PRO Act, which would shore up collective bargaining rights for millions of workers. Vance offered Politico two rationales for his opposition. One is that he prefers a shift toward sectoral bargaining, which is more common in Europe, and which the PRO Act would not prevent. Another is political. “We can’t just be good, we have to be smart, and I think it’s dumb to hand over a lot of power to a union leadership that is aggressively anti-Republican,” he said.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/fact-checking-j-d-vances-past-statements-and-relationship-with-trump

PolitiFact has fact-checked Vance 10 times. He’s received two Pants on Fire ratings, three Falses, two Mostly Falses and two Half Trues. He also received one Mostly True rating before he was a politician in 2018.

Talk about a vice-presidential candidate having a hard time telling the truth.

You all are disgusting.

If Mother Teresa were on the Democratic ticket you would be asserting she is a dishonest person that slept her way to the top.

You have no shame. I am sorry your candidates suck and you cannot compete on policy. Choose better candidates next time.

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.

There’s no political points to score if you have to undergo either treatment. It’s tough, exhausting (emotionally and mentally), and costly.

I know enough to summarize that if a normal human being or their loved one had such a history, the normal person would not be maki g such an asinine assertion. But then again, you’re right, I shouldn’t assume normality.

And the campaign has corrected the language to be that he served at the Command Sergeant Major rank and retired as a master sergeant. This is correct. He may not have held the rank of Command Sergeant Major, but he did serve at a position as a CSM while he was frocked for the position. He did not complete the required training and was never formerly given the rank, but he did serve in a CSM position while frocked.

No. We are taking about Walz because we have two choices in a few months. Go ahead and die on this stupid hill if you want and vote for the draft dodger who thinks you’re a loser and a sucker then. BTW, the guard disagrees with you and they have far more credibility than you, anonymous poster.
