Guess you dont recall the "axis of evil" while you were sitting on you butt doing nothing with your life.

Hateful dumb people like foxnose have no space here.

He said he carried a weapon in WAR, not he carried wine in a solo cup

Weird....walz was sent to Italy in 2003. Not into geography, but I think Italy is overseas.

JD never claimed he was in combat, Walz did.

He retired. If JD the Reporter was so big and brave why did he only last in the military for 4 years? Dude never even saw combat, just hauling around a typewriter.

And you want to attack a dude for spending 24 years and retiring...

Weird hill to choose to die on.

awalz, in his own words: "We can research the impacts of gun violence. We can make sure those weapons of war, that I carried in war, are only carried in war," he tells the audience.
awalz claimed to have carried "weapons of war" "IN WAR"

Veterans groups hit back at J.D. Vance for claiming Tim Walz had 'stolen valor' (msn.com)

"We're setting the record straight,"Vote Vets said with a post on the social media site X. They created a graph showing the "fact and fiction" of Walz's military record. Among the fictional claims, "Walz retired because he knew he was going to deploy to Iraq. Walz is using a rank he didn't attain and that's Stolen Valor."

Vote Vets labeled this claim "Bulls--t," and then explained why.

"Tim submitted his retirement request to the U.S. Army National Guard months prior to the notification of his unit's deployment," they explained. "His unit was fully sourced (staffed), and his request was approved. He retired in May 2005."

On the claim about his rank, the group called that "Bulls--t," as well.
