Harris VP pick

[SeattleGriz]

Walz cover-up by his lying party of his DUI is coming to light finally.

AP News

What happened

According to court records, a Nebraska state trooper clocked Walz going 96 mph in a 55-mph zone. The trooper wrote that he detected a strong smell of alcohol on his breath. Walz failed field sobriety and preliminary breath tests.

He was taken to a hospital for a blood test and was booked into the Dawes County Jail. A transcript of his plea hearing on March 13, 1996, quotes the prosecutor as saying his blood test showed an alcohol level of 0.128%, compared with a legal limit of 0.10%.

What the Donk Party said

His campaign manager told the Post-Bulletin of Rochester that he was not drunk. She said Walz couldn’t understand what the trooper was saying to him because he had a hearing loss from his service in an artillery unit in the National Guard, and suggested that he might have had balance issues as a result. She also falsely claimed that the judge who dismissed the drunken driving charge chastised the officer for not realizing that Walz was deaf.

His campaign spokeswoman made similar statements to KEYC-TV and The Journal of New Ulm, saying, “The DUI charge was dropped for a reason: It wasn’t true.” She claimed he failed the field sobriety test because of his deafness, and that the trooper let Walz drive to a police station and leave on his own.

Pretty weak stuff 28 years later but you might be able to manufacture a bit of outrage if you can find a way to work it in somehow with the so-called "stolen valor" crisis. You can't tell what will get legs..."stolen valor"...tan suit....you never know

For the guy who trots out, "but Trump" over shit years ago and without proof, that's rich. Next you'll tell us Russia blew up it's own pipeline.

CH does this a lot. I wonder how much he owes Cleets for chizzying without attribution?

I love that smug prick!

You know Cleets was bad when my mother asked what he was hiding the first time he came over to dinner. She liked him, as we all did, but noticed he was a little loose on backing up statements.

Was fun when he came over because we talked about everything but this board! As it should be.

That’s not traditional media

Gullible fools read and believe both piles of bullshit.

What the media has done is wrong (see Ganny's post) but what Twitter, tucker, hannity, and MAQA yahoo echo chambers has done is also wrong. But two wrongs don't make a right and one wrong doesn't justify another wrong.

Typical UNI. Pants self in corner, then makes up shit to justify.

[SeattleGriz]

It's all FAKE NEWS manufactured by a corrupt MSM (MAQA Social Media) aided and abetted by musk in the twitterverse and now the CCP is using TikTok to help trump.

That's what you say about allegations against trump.

I know when I want the truth I turn to Libs of TicTok.

Bro. We all know Mueller She Wrote is your go to "truth" teller.

Remember when the Harris supporters and their left wing militias stormed the whitehouse, injuring 100’s of LE, vandalizing property, and interrupting a constitutional certification process?

It feels like it happened just last month.

No, but we remember all the months of riots, death and damage to government buildings in the run up to the election that Kamala supported with money.

I remember both and they were both despicable events. The participants were not warriors, heroes or patriots. Neither should be swept under the rug or whitewashed to deny their attempted impact.

Especially that black cop that murdered unarmed Ashli Babbit

Agreed, but one version got vilified and people have gone to jail, the other, not much.

My favorite part about the BLM riots was when Seattle formed CHAZ. Then two black kids were shot inside CHAZ boundaries, but they wouldn't allow medical access to the area, so both died less than one mile from Harborview. The regional level 1 trauma center and the hospital Greys Anatomy was based upon.

The icing is when the protestors moved to the interstate and one of them got hit by a car that accessed the Interstate illegally. It was of course an angry Trump white supremacist, until it was a Black WSU student.

Ah. The memories of the different narratives and outcomes.

I posted this comparison of the AnTiFa/BLM riots to the January 6 Riot in January 2021 ...

I don't think it's a false equivalency. As I've said, there are similarities and there are differences. You want to focus on the differences that make the Capitol riots look worse.

Capitol Riots Bad
- Attempt to overturn the results of the election
- Targeted the Capitol and Congress
- ex-military and current LE members participated
- egged on by conservative political leaders in advance

BLM/AnTiFa Riots Bad
- Occurred in cities across the country
- Occurred for an extended period of time (they're still occurring in some cities)
- Local political leaders limited LE's ability to respond which emboldened the rioters
- Local prosecutors declined to prosecute many of the offenders which further emboldened the rioters
- Defended, rationalized and even encouraged by liberal political leaders as they occurred

The Left has been demonizing LE since George Floyd (defund the police, All Cops Are Bastards, etc.) and then they question why LE would stand up and support Trump. The reason that LE participated in the Capitol riots is similar to why BLM rioted in the first place. They felt they were being disrespected and treated unfairly and they'd had enough. The Left doubled down on this disrespect after the riots by questioning the loyalty of the National Guard. If you keep kicking a dog eventually he's going to bite you. Is it the dog's fault or your fault for kicking him?

BLM riots weren’t an attempt to overthrow an election. What percentage of the acts of criminality were committed were vandalism? Which political leaders endorsed violence and destruction of property vs. protesting against police abuse and racism?

Oh my goodness! How much did she give the rioters and murderers? is she still applauding their efforts today?

Thus why I didn't list that as one of the bad things about the AnTiFa/BLM riots.

For the guy who trots out, "but Trump" over shit years ago and without proof, that's rich. Next you'll tell us Russia blew up it's own pipeline.

Nice deflection and tap out!

She was a volunteer, she knew the risks.

Walz is a piece of shit. Nobody lies about being in combat when they weren't. I specifically go out of my way to let people know I was ONLY a Reservist. Never activated and never saw a combat environment.

I remember when all the people that were in my until got activated to go to the UAE. All the people that resigned commissions were just like Walz. Only there to collect a paycheck and then wanted nothing to do with the military once they got asked to do what they signed up for.

Did they resign a few months before being told they may be activated and a few more months before they received orders?

No. They all had to go!!! Lol. That was the best part. Couldn't get out fast enough when they returned.

My unit was sent to the UAE. Nowhere near any conflict, and it was too much for a good 15 people. We helped staff a hospital. My stepmom worked in the NICU and held babies. It was easy, but they got out.

What they signed up for is whatever Uncle Sam thinks is the best use of them.

Uncle Sam thought the ASA would be the best use of me; after I opted out during Basic they thought my next best use would be as a helicopter tech so thats what I did. Like 99% of veterans I never got shot at however I was in harm's way once at Ft. Polk when I happened to be walking past the post theater at the exact moment a double-feature of Shaft and Mandingo let out, causing me to take to my heels and earning me the nickname of "white lightning" from the black folk in my company when they heard about it in church. I wish someone had clocked me because because I'm certain that I bested my 4.6 40-yd time ....

If BD were here to fuck this fly's ass he would remind you that carrying a weapon in war is not the same thing as being in combat -and he'd be right for maybe the first time in his life.Tens of thousands of troops that served in Vietnam never got shot at either and spent more time in whorehouses than in the bush. Your phony outrage is - Walz exaggerated for a point he was making about gun control to some civilians - very, very, small potatos and nowhere near rising to the level of stolen valor. Or even bone spurs...

Tens of millions in every walk of life are only there for the paycheck and the pension.

All those people would be officers, not like Walz - NCOs don't resign their commissions because they don't have one. They can retire after 20 years - which apparently you didn't - Walz served 24 years and then he retired.

So what was your excuse for cutting and running?

Nope- Walz flat out lied about carrying a weapon in war.

Just like he lied for 20 years about being an OEF/Afghanistan vet.

Just like he lied for 20 years about his retirement rank. Even lied about it and had a congressional coin made with his fake retirement rank.

Boy I done told you once, now pay attention when I'm talking to you because I won't always be here to help you through life: being in war is not he same thing as being in combat.

He served 24 years and retired honorably. What did you do?

Told you before. Detached retina from a childhood accident. Too much field of vision loss.

Tried to get my Medical Service Corp commission as I had a qualifying degree and that option was available in our Medical Reserve Unit. Due to Clinton downsizing, no slots available.

So, tried the ROTC route while prepping for grad school. I was on Christmas break before getting my commission in the Spring, and was signed up for Airborne school. It was during the physical that my field of vision loss was detected. Had it for 17 years at that point and finally detected.

Walz is a sleaze

Walz wasn’t in either.
Undisputable facts:
-Walz lied about carrying a weapon in war.
-Walz lied about being an OEF/Afghanistan vet.
-Walz lied about his retirement rank (it’s right there on your DD-214).
