Yes, but lynched isn't on a presidential ticket and didn't lie about his service.  But I would expect small details like that to fly straight over your head.

Tim didn't lie about his service either. You're just so driven to believe he did that you can't see it any other way.

Seriously.  STFU about somebody’s military service when your guy got five deferments. He didn’t have bone spurs - he’s just a ****.  And what’s hilarious is that Republicans have turned John McCain’s six years of captivity into a flex for Trump.  Effin weirdos.

He actually did deploy to Italy in support of OEF. I would expect Bone Spur cadets to not have a clue what a deployment is. One white lie does not erase 24 years of honorable service.

I’ll give them the white lie about carrying a weapon of war in combat, but they can pound sand in the other BS.

That was poor phrasing in an off the cuff comment he made. Comments he never doubled down on and repeated.

Trump and co. repeat the same lies over and over and it becomes somehow expected.

Call me when Dems are held to the same standard as Trump, who lies as easy as he breathes.

The Trump staffers who got into an altercation with an Arlington National Cemetery official identified.

The two staffers, according to a source with knowledge of the incident, are deputy campaign manager Justin Caporale and Michel Picard, a member of Trump’s advance team.

Trump himself has denied the altercation took place. 

What a revelation.....

One white lie? He's been lying for years. 

You forgot about "weapons of war" already? 

🤣🤣🤣

I agree that it was more of bad phrasing than an all out lie. Either way, it was harmless.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz "misspoke" in a 2018 video circulated by the Harris campaign earlier this week that included the vice presidential candidate talking about his handling of weapons "in war," a campaign spokesperson said Friday.

"Misspoke" is apologist for "lie".

F off John

No free rides.

Talk s***, take s***. Stop crying about it and man up.

Trump took a big steamy dump on every single Medal of Honor recipient in history, so please spare me your weak ass horseshit about anything Walz has ever said or done.

"We can make sure that those weapons of war that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at.” Update, Aug. 12: The Harris campaign says that Walz "misspoke.”

"When Tim Walz was asked by his country to go to Iraq, you know what he did? He dropped out of the Army and allowed his unit to go without him, a fact that he’s been criticized for aggressively by a lot of the people that he served with. I think it’s shameful to prepare your unit to go to Iraq, to make a promise that you’re going to follow through and then to drop out right before you actually have to go.”

"On May 16th, 2005 he [Walz] quit, leaving the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion and its Soldiers hanging; without its senior Non-Commissioned Officer, as the battalion prepared for war. His excuse to other leaders was that he needed to retire in order to run for congress. Which is false, according to a Department of Defense Directive, he could have run and requested permission from the Secretary of Defense before entering active duty; as many reservists have.”       

But, as Vance indicated, there is no evidence that Walz carried a weapon "in war.”

Update, Aug. 12: In an Aug. 10 statement to CNN, the Harris campaign told CNN that Walz "misspoke.”

The Republican National Committee has criticized Walz for saying "in campaign materials that he is a former ‘Command Sergeant Major’ in the Army National Guard despite not completing the requirements to hold the rank into retirement.”

This isn’t the first time that Walz’s National Guard rank has come up in a campaign. 

In their 2018 paid letter to the West Central Tribune, when Walz was running for governor, the two Minnesota National Guard retired command sergeants major who criticized Walz for retiring before the Iraq deployment also wrote: "Yes, he served at that rank, but was never qualified at that rank, and will receive retirement benefits at one rank below. You be the judge.”

We paid 22k per year and that was over 10 years ago. It's insane. 

As a comparison, the price for one month of day care here in Stockholm is capped at about $160/month per child.  There is also a general contribution from the state directly to the parents of about $120/month per child.  Slight difference.

ONE MAJOR DIFFERENCE

The summer convention bumps and the special Biden dropping out bump are now over. 60 days of grind left and it is still a very close race.

The upcoming debate has a chance to move the needle given how close the race is at this point. Too bad Trump’s mic will be muted. Harris is the perfect choice to beat Trump at his own game. Alas, she will have to live with the Biden rules.
