A video clip has emerged to show that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Kamala Harris' running mate, built his entire political career on the lie that he is "a retired command sergeant major." Watch below to hear for yourself Walz lying in 2007 to veterans in Winona, Minn., about being this type of veteran, a false claim that many are calling Walz's stolen valor moment: A year before that in 2006, The Atlantic published an article in which writer Joshua Green referred to Walz as "a command sergeant major," this being the same false terminology used by Walz himself. While no one is questioning Walz's service, they are questioning his alleged battlefield deployments, which he has repeatedly hawked throughout his political career in order to boost himself. "Lying about one's battlefield deployments for decades for political gain is disqualifying to me, and it shouldn't be a question," is how one X user put it. "It's still on his X profile," wrote another about how the deception continues.

Veterans upset about Walz's questionable military record

Veterans are reportedly clashing with Walz over his questionable military record. "When your country calls, you are supposed to run into battle – not the other way," scolded Ret. Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas Behrends in a statement to the New York Post. "He ran away. It's sad." "He had the opportunity to serve his country and said 'screw you' to the United States," pouted another. "That's not who I would pick to run for vice president." After these comments were published, the media really started reporting about Walz's 24 years of service in the Army National Guard and the many claims of "stolen valor" that are being lobbed his way. Just months before his battalion deployed to Iraq immediately following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Walz filed papers for retirement, according to the Minnesota National Guard. "He subverted the chain of command, and he went around the chain of command," commented Ret. Command Sgt. Maj. Paul Herr. "The brigade [sergeant] major had no clue. These are all important facts, and he did it to continually feather his own bed ... That was the shameful part of it." The grieving mother of Sgt. Kyle Miller, who died at just 19 years of age in 2006, issued a fuming statement regarding Walz's retirement just before the 1st Battalion, 125th Field Artillery unit deployed to Iraq. "My son wasn’t even 21 years old," Kathy Miller, Kyle's mom, said. "He couldn't even buy alcohol. Yet he took the step to serve our country while Walz found the best way to run away. It was the coward's way out." After retirement, Walz took the political route, eventually finding his way from the U.S. House of Representatives for Minnesota to his current role as Kamala Harris' running mate for vice president. John Kolb, a retired lieutenant colonel from the same battalion Walz retired from before deployment to Iraq, wrote an angry post on Facebook about how it is "an affront" for Walz to continue using the rank that he did not retain, but that helped advance his political career.
