Minn. National Guard Disputes Walz's Military Biography

https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/tim-walz-military-background-national-guard/2024/08/07/id/1175637/


CNN: No Evidence of Walz's Combat Claims

https://www.newsmax.com/politics/cnn-tim-walz-army/2024/08/08/id/1175734/


One started her political campaign on a drag show and the other started his political campaign lying about his military achievements.

It's no lie to say he was a Command Sergeant Major. Newsmax hypes up that he was retired as a Master Sergeant, but that demotion didn't happen until after he was retired. You don't get to keep the rank in retirement unless you've held it for over two years. Those are just the rules.

And Walz never said he was in combat. He did serve in time of war, though, and even if his post was in Italy and not Afghanistan, it's still a wartime post. Everybody in the Army carries a weapon, probably an M-16A2 or M-4 carbine. And his point was that military-grade weapons aren't suitable for civilian use. I agree.


Do you suffer headaches from the mental gymnastics that you have to do every day to bend reality, to bend the truth to suit your slanted perspective on life?


Newsmax's news article is based on the Minnesota National Guard claim according to their records that Walz did not retired as a Command Sergeant Major as he is claiming but as a Sergeant Major. Newsmax did not hyper up anything.


I don't know about the States but generally speaking when a police officer or solider impersonate a rank they can be charged.


Secondly, CNN is disputing that when Walz make the claim that that he was in fighting position with weapons he is suggesting he was in combat but that the army records doesn't bear that out. Again no hype up on the Newsmax's part just reporting on CNN fact checking Walz.

1. I'm not performing mental gymnastics. I'm just clarifying what seems to confuse you. I know the National Guard because I was in the California National Guard for decades, myself. A Guard soldier can retire at will after completing at least 20 years of service. However, when you retire, you don't get to retire at your highest rank unless you've held it for at least two years. That MN Gard officer is saying that Walz didn't retire as a CSM/E-9, but rather a MS/E-8. Walz was a CSM. At the moment his retirement took effect, he was a Master Sergeant. Both are true.

2. Saying he "carried weapons in war" isn't the same as serving in combat. Wars come and go, and one's place in them isn't always in combat. During the first Gulf War, I was in Texas, and we had our weapons, even though I didn't leave that state. Soldiers in my neighboring unit deployed to Iraq. They never saw combat, either. We all carried our issued weapons during that time. However, Walz's statement that those M-16 rifles have no business in civilian use, is just as true.

This is the only part of his resume I don’t have a problem with. He spent 24 years in the N.G. Give credit where due.. but he sucks at every other aspect of his service so I don’t think his service record will make a impact either way on him.

So CNN doesn't know what they are talking about but instead of you berating the source you berate a new site who is reporting on the source who is fact checking Walz' military record.

Secondly, the issue is not whether Walz was a CSM during his 2 years but rather did he RETIRED as Command Sergeant Major as he claims which the Nationak Guard said it is not. If he says otherwise it is misleading.

There are several ways to splice the story, but when Walz submitted his retirement request, he was still a CSM. Rank insignia right there on his uniform. Go ahead and check the timeline if you wish.

So Walz is playing on a technicality. Demoted to Master Sergeant a few months after retiring but still bragging he retired as a Command Sergeant Major. Yet that isn't the official position of the Minnesota NG. Interesting.


"Earlier this week Harris’ campaign circulated on X a 2018 clip of Walz speaking out against gun violence, and saying, “We can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at.” That comment suggests that Walz portrayed himself as someone who spent time in a combat zone."

This is a silly thing to get hung up on. A soldier in the Army statistically has little chance of seeing combat. Only about 10% of US soldiers actually pull any trigger, as in serve as infantry, artillery or cavalry. Not all of those even see real combat.

If (then) MSG Walz had deployed, unless his command post was overrun by the enemy (super unlikely) he wouldn't have seen combat. Even if he didn't deploy, he's guaranteed to have at least carried his assigned rifle, during that time.

Anyway, you're getting upset about something the guy said years ago about how dangerous assault rifles are. Being a hunter, he knows that they would rip apart anything you shot with them, so there wouldn't be much left to eat.

No matter how you feel about his rank in the N.G. His claim about taking his H.S. football team to the state playoffs was inaccurate. He was the assistant coach, who remembers the assistent coach? Nobody does…but I wonder if all that time in the boys locker room had some kind of influence on his notion that there should be tampon dispensers in there for the boys . He gets really hyped up when he comes out on stage for their rally’s, he reminds me of a game show host . This guy missed his calling as a used car salesman.. his most famous statement is ‘ one man’s socialism is another mans neighborliness’… so we know what he wants for Americas future. Along with DEI and wealth distribution

I'm not sure about all that. The defense coach is a pretty significant member of the staff. That said, I wasn't even aware his team made it to the playoffs.

Actually, having been in the Guard, I saw more than a few senior NCOs of which Walz reminds me. Just like how Republicans and Democrats like to use each others' ideas, it would be good for Republicans to recruit new leaders from the military senior enlisted. Some officers, too. We could probably find several that don't reek of MAGA, and could really turn around the Republican Party. That would be something!

Why do we even care about the V.P. picks? How often does the V.P. actually do anything anyways? Look at short term, and long term history. How many V.P.'s have done anything notable besides maybe running in future elections.
Maybe people should be more concerned about Kamala is talking about? Or more importantly what she isn't talking about? Seems she likes to shy away from the media, probably better off that way so they can not question her on her wishy washy positions. Typical politician that magically supports the things that crowd wants and then completely flips when the next crowd want something different. She gets flustered under pressure, but how long can she go without giving some answers of where she really stands on things? Figure the majority of people backing her are only doing so because of her race/gender, which are some more things she is wishy washy on. If she can just avoid any media for the next 90 days she might actually have a chance of winning.
Not say Republicans are much better off, seems they are playing a game too, reminds me of when they wanted to be known as the teabagger party back in 2010's and thought Sarah Palin was the future. A divided party that suddenly changes their mind when they find out they need to follow whomever is leading the party at that time, or be shamed by the rest of the party. Seen even Elon has jumped from Democrats over to Republican. But then again so did Trump. A 3rd party moderate candidate sure would look good about now.

Kamala will continue with the liberal policies of Biden and Obama if she becomes President but it doesn't matter who becomes President....Democrat or Republican. The US economy and the dollar are heading towards a financial crash. The global stock market crash on Aug 6th where 14B was lost on the US stock exchange wiping out thousands of investors is just the beginning. A tip of the iceberg 🧊. Americans need to withdraw their money from their financial institutions leaving just enough to cover bills and stock up on food and supplies.

Nothing wrong with being prepared for unforeseen disaster, but the price dip the other day is not a leading indicator of collapse of the US market. Lots of people tell us the economy will collapse. Then they try to sell us goods or services. So, what are you selling?

"So, what are you selling?"

Lol

The three main indicators that send the global stock market in a tailspin are:

1/ The falling of the yen. Japan rising it's interest rates to keep its economy in survival mode. US and EU debt have a strangle hold on their economy and Japan has begin selling off their debts. Japan being the third or 4th largest economy in the world will affect the US and EU markets.

2/ Disappointed July US job report send shockwaves globally of an US economic slowdown and recession.

3/Crumbling tech stocks. Microsoft is the lastest company to lay off over 80% of its staff. Part of a long list of companies over the last 2 years laying off hundreds of staff across industries.

The handwriting is on the wall.
