Kamala Harris, Tim Walz promote false framing of JD Vance statement on shootings

By Paul Bois | Breitbart Kamala Harris and her VP pick Tim Walz pushed the false framing of Republican Sen. JD Vance’s statement on shootings despite the Associated Press (AP) engendering backlash earlier. The Associated Press ignited massive backlash on Thursday when it blatantly misquoted Republican vice presidential pick JD Vance on school shootings. Speaking at a rally in Phoenix, Arizona, Vance said he does not like that school shootings have become a “fact of life” while calling for better security. “If these psychos are going to go after our kids, we’ve got to be prepared for it,” Vance said. “We don’t have to like the reality that we live in, but it is the reality we live in. We’ve got to deal with it.” When the journalist asked Vance what the country could do to stop s...

Johnson: The Top 7 Tim Walz’s Lies

By Ben Johnson  | Daily Signal CNN thinks it understands what sets Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz apart from the average politician: honesty. “[W]hat Walz has—and it’s rare in politics these days—is that he’s totally comfortable in his own skin. He knows who he is. He’s authentic. And he doesn’t try to be someone else,” said CNN’s Chris Cillizza. Yet Walz stands accused of purveying a string of lies, errors, and prevarications stretching back to his earliest days in politics, fibbing about everything from his military service to whether he won an obscure award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce as a 29-year-old man. Here is a far-from-exhaustive list of the mistruths Walz has communicated. READ MORE AT THE DAILY SIGNAL...

Walz says he lied about going to war because he struggles with grammar

By M.D. Kittle | The Federalist Kamala Harris and her running mate sat down with CNN’s Dana Bash for their first semi-substantive interview since Joe Biden’s political wake. Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., has made a political career out of “misspeaking.” Why stop now?   The No. 2 on the Democratic Party’s forced dream team campaign ticket, featuring the joyous empty vessel Vice President Kamala Harris, was back to doing what he seems to do best Thursday night. After several weeks of evading actual questions, Harris and her running mate sat down with CNN’s Dana Bash for the first semi-substantive interview of their honeymoon campaign — more than a month after President Joe Biden’s political wake.  READ THE FULL STORY AT THE FEDERALIST

Biden-Harris admin working to ‘Trump-proof’ hundreds of DOJ jobs, watchdog says

By Jamie Joseph | Fox News The Biden-Harris administration may be attempting to "Trump-proof" the Department of Justice (DOJ) by hiring permanent appointees to some federal positions, according to findings from a watchdog group's public records request.  Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) documents obtained by Protect the Public’s Trust (PPT) and shared with Fox News Digital show the administration is using an "obscure hiring authority" that bypasses normal hiring processes based on merit to secure DOJ positions that could thwart former President Trump's agenda if he takes office in 2025.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS

Harris brings along VP pick for her first sit-down interview

By Reagan Reese | Daily Caller Vice President Kamala Harris is set to sit down for her first interview since launching her campaign with CNN, and her running mate Gov. Tim Walz will be appearing alongside her. Harris and her campaign have faced growing pressure over the last month as the vice president has failed to hold a press conference or sit down for an interview since launching her bid for president. CNN announced Tuesday that its own Dana Bash will get the first chance to interview Harris in a segment airing Thursday, though the vice president will be accompanied by Walz. The vice president previously told reporters that she was hoping to get an interview scheduled by the end of the month. While deliberating whether Harris should do an interview, campaign aides were asking ...

DNC Day 3: Keynote Tim Walz denounced by 50 GOP military vets in Congress for lying about rank, dodging deployment

By Josh Christenson | New York Post Fifty Republican members of Congress who are military veterans denounced Democratic vice presidential pick Tim Walz on Wednesday for having lied about his rank in the Army National Guard and retiring before a deployment to Afghanistan to pursue his political aspirations. The House and Senate GOP lawmakers, led by Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.), a retired US Army staff sergeant who chairs Veterans and Military Families for Trump, blasted out an open letter to the Minnesota governor, asking him to correct the “egregious misrepresentations” about his military record. “[Y]ou have lied your way through a political career launched on the foundation of a title you did not earn and combat deployments you did not take part in,” the former military se...

Trump: Harris picked Eric Holder-vetted Walz despite ‘stolen valor’ because Dems ‘don’t care about the military’

By Matthew Boyle | Breitbart  Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that Vice President Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate despite his history of stealing valor because Democrats do not care about veterans and the military. “I think for the Democrats they did because I don’t think they care,” Trump said in an interview at Mar-a-Lago last week. “I don’t think they care about his military service because they don’t care about the military. I think they did for themselves, but I don’t think they did for the country.” Walz’s history of stealing valor — he claimed he was “in war” when he certainly was not — has become a major liability for Democrats and for Harris. Several establishment media outlets like ABC News, CNN, and mor...

Vance agrees to Oct. 1 debate of VP candidates with Walz on CBS

By Jared Mitovich | Politico Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance agreed to debate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on Oct. 1 on CBS, locking in a match-up between the Republican and Democratic nominees for vice president. On Wednesday, Walz had publicly agreed to the October debate in CBS’s New York City studios. “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell and “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan will moderate the forum. Vance added that he had agreed to debate Walz on CNN on Sept. 18, writing, “The American people deserve as many debates as possible, which is why President Trump has challenged Kamala to three of them already.” Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump last week committed to a Sept. 10 debate hosted by ABC, but Trump has continued to challenge Harris to join him for...

Walz ‘did not earn the rank’ he claims, his unit successor Lt. Col. John Kolb says in Facebook post

By Stephen M. Lepore | DailyMail.com The battalion commander who ran Tim Walz's former unit has slammed the vice presidential nominee over claims of 'stolen valor'.   Kamala Harris' running mate has already been forced to backtrack on claims of having 'carried' weapons of war in combat during his 24 years in the Army National Guard and faced claims of being a 'coward' from family members of soldiers. Harris has also been put in the unenviable position of confronting claims that Walz misrepresented his rank when he retired from the National Guard. READ THE FIULL STORY AT DAILYMAIL.COM
