Controversy Surrounds Tim Walz's Military Service

Tim Walz's military service has come under scrutiny as accusations of stolen valor arise during his campaign with Kamala Harris. Critics point out that he retired from the National Guard just before his unit was deployed to Iraq, a move perceived by some as abandoning his duties. Two former military colleagues have publicly called out Walz for leaving his battalion without leadership, with one stating he 'slithered out the door' at a critical time. This revelation has raised questions about Walz's past statements regarding his military service, which he has previously framed in a manner suggesting combat experience.
