Hmmm...

I usually stay away from politics for reasons, but this one...

Shades of Swift boaters against Kerry...

Vice President Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate on Tuesday, and will likely emphasize his military service as part of their campaign.

But when Walz was running for governor in 2018, former members of the National Guard spoke out about his service, with a retired command sergeant major saying he “embellished and selectively omitted facts of his military career for years.”

In an open letter posted to Facebook that year, retired Command Sergeants Major Thomas Behrends and Paul Herr wrote that Walz retired just a few months after receiving a warning order that his battalion would be deployed to Iraq – even though he told military personnel he would be going on the mission.

Full article, HERE from the Daily Wire, and link to the open letter, HERE.

At the time, I was working with two of the former Swift boat crewmen, both had been in the same squadron as Kerry and knew first hand. One of them was a retired officer and boat commander 'with' Kerry.

Yes, there were those who said Kerry was pure as driven snow... yeah, right.

I see much the same thing here, and this accusation is NOT new, going back to 2018, but it does raise questions in my mind as to what Walz was thinking/doing. He'd made a commitment to get the E-9 slot, then 'retired' when he found out they were going downrange. OBTW, he never actually DID what he'd obligated to do to get the E-9 slot either.

Based on what he did and didn't do as governor, e.g. the BLM riots and the whole Wuflu lockdowns, he obviously 'likes' being in power.

If he was willing to walk away from his troops, what do you think he will do to John Q. Public if a hard choice has to be made???

Your thoughts???
