Harris campaign admits Walz 'misspoke' about past military career

Vice President Harris' presidential campaign admitted Friday that her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz misspoke about his past military service as a growing chorus of critics accuse him of stolen valor.

Governor Walz would never insult or undermine any American's service to this country — in fact, he thanks Senator Vance for putting his life on the line for our country. It's the American way, Team Harris said in a statement to NBC News Friday.

In making the case for why weapons of war should never be on our streets or in our classrooms, the Governor misspoke. He did handle weapons of war and believes strongly that only military members trained to carry those deadly weapons should have access to them, unlike Donald Trump and JD Vance who prioritize the gun lobby over our children.
Given the propensity of our children to shoot up their schools or to attempt to murder teachers, packing a rod whilst in front of a class might be a good idea. Declaring schools a gun free zone does nothing but expend wind. Empirical observation beats theory ten out of ten times.

#1 Based on all the evidence, Waltz appears to be a serial misspeaker.

#2 Misspoke my ass. He is a blatant stolen valor coward and should be shot for desertion in the face of the enemy.
