I have to agree with Trump here about the Comrade Harris campaign and Comrade Walz.
The more I've learned about Walz, the more freakishly weird he appears.

Trump one-ups Walz’s ‘weird comments’: ‘He’s very freakish’

Before Walz was selected to be Harris’s running mate, he made waves for his comments about the Trump-Vance ticket being “weird” in a news interview. Since then, the Harris campaign has run with the rhetoric, describing the Republicans as “weird” in campaign emails, interviews, and speeches.

“[Walz] said, ‘You know, I think J.D. Vance is weird,’ you know, it’s a word that they use,” Trump said in response. “We want to be able to buy a house. We want great education. We want strong borders. I think we’re very actually, I think we’re the opposite of weird. They’re weird.”

But Trump didn’t stop there; he stepped the heat up, calling Walz “freakish.”

“Tim Waltz is the man who’s very freakish. He’s very freakish. If Comrade Walz and Comrade Harris win this November, the people cheering will be the pink-haired Marxists, the looters, the perverts, the flag burners, Hamas supporters, drug dealers, gun grabbers, and human traffickers.”

I’ve always wondered why politicians embellish their military resume. Of all people they should know everything regarding their record will eventually be scrutinized. To say oneself is a retired CSM which is an E9 when in reality they retired as an E8 Master or First Sergeant is a perfect example of embellishment. No need to do when he could have as easily said he served as a CSM before retiring after 24 years. At first glance anyone reading such a resume might assume he retired in that pay grade, yet he couldn’t be accused of lying by claiming to have retired as such.

In case you haven't concluded already that Tampon Tim is a COMMIE....

Man who says he accompanied Walz on trip to China calls VP candidate ‘Maoist to the core’

The former student also told Alpha News that he submitted a report with the House Oversight Committee and spoke to a staffer for Rep. James Comer.

By Liz Collin - August 17, 2024

A man who says he joined Tim Walz on a trip to communist China is speaking out about his experience of traveling to the country with the future vice-presidential candidate.

“It was almost a daily revelation of how much he adores the communist regime,” the former student told Alpha News.

For over a decade, Tim Walz traveled to and from China. First arriving in the country in 1989, Walz taught at a high school in partnership with a nonprofit program affiliated with Harvard University. During this first trip, Walz was visiting Hong Kong when the Tiananmen Square protests began in April. Those protests ended in June when the communist government massacred protestors on June 3-4, 1989.

After the massacre, Walz later took a train to Beijing to visit the square, according to the New York Times.

Tim Walz Tied to Chinese ‘Secret Police Stations’ That Kidnap CCP Critics

Ties between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) are becoming more alarming, with Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer revealing that the VP hopeful is connected to “secret police stations that the Chinese have here in the United States.”

During Schweizer’s latest appearance on Breitbart News Daily, Walz was accused of being connected to a group called Minnesota Global that is allegedly tied to a secret Chinese police station in the Twin Cities:

The New York Times bestselling author claimed that Walz, who was announced as Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate on August 6, is connected to CCP operatives who conduct illegal police activity in the U.S.

While speaking on several of the Minnesota governor’s unsavory links to the Chinese government, Schweizer mentioned the “secret police stations that the Chinese have here in the United States,” which are unofficial but “so-called united front groups that exist in the West.”

Schweizer, who also serves as president of the Government Accountability Institute, said these stations “cooperate with Chinese intelligence” in order to “intimidate Chinese that are living in the United States that don’t like the CCP or [are] critical of the CCP.”

In April 2023, New York police arrested two men for allegedly setting up a secret police station in order to collect information on opponents of the CCP, the Associated Press reported.

“Harry” Lu Jianwang, 61, of the Bronx, and Chen Jinping, 59, of Manhattan, are both U.S. citizens accused of working with Chinese government officials to commit “transnational repression,” according to the outlet.

Such secret police stations have been reported across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and other countries where the CCP has identified Chinese expats who are critical of their government.

According to Laura Harth, a campaign director with Spain-based human rights non-governmental organization (NGO) Safeguard Defenders, they have identified 102 Chinese police service stations operating across 53 countries.

China has denied that they are operating police stations overseas, claiming that such institutions exist to provide services like driver’s license renewals.

Schweizer said the stations are known to kidnap detractors:

What happens is they will literally go around and visit people and say, ‘Hey, you know you need to shut up. You need to stop talking about this. You need to stop being so critical of the government.’

And there actually have been at least half a dozen documented cases where these networks have actually been involved in abducting people, that is, Chinese that are living in the United States, abducting them and sending them back to mainland China.

Going on to refer to one alleged CCP police outpost in the Twin Cities, Schweizer said it is “tied to a group called Minnesota Global, which is a Tim Walz organization.”

“Now Tim Walz in 2020 and since 2020 has talked ad nauseam about the abuse by the police, the Twin Cities police, the local Minneapolis Police, about their terrible behavior with regards to how they arrest people,” the author continued.

“I have not found one criticism that Tim Walz has had of this Chinese secret police station that’s operating in the Twin Cities. So again, you have to wonder, why is there this disconnect?” he posed. “Why are you so critical and brutal on your own country, but you won’t do a scintilla of the same thing as it regards to China?”

“You just have to wonder why the governor is not doing anything about it, why he hasn’t called them out, why he hasn’t said stop doing this, because they’re harassing people in his state,” Schweizer said, noting that Walz’s apparent love for China does not appear to be a case like the Bidens, “where there’s the financial part of it.”

“There’s no evidence that he made oodles of money doing this,” Schweizer clarified. “You know, I think the only thing you can say is it’s, it’s either some sort of philosophical attraction to certain elements of left wing totalitarians, or, you know, to put it in the way I used to say in middle school, is wimpy behavior.”

Walz' Former Superior: He 'Quit' Rather Than Deploy, And Went Over My Head to Get Out

We covered this a couple of days ago based on a clip, but the entire interview with retired Minnesota National Guard Command Sergeant Major Doug Julin is worth watching. CNN's Laura Coates spent ten minutes on Thursday night trying to defend Tim Walz through most of it, but Julin would not be deterred. Not only did Walz know that his unit would be deployed when he suddenly retired, Walz back-doored Julin in applying for retirement, he explains, leaving his unit in the lurch.

And there's a reason Walz did that -- a very clear reason, Julin points out:

https://t.co/8a3K5eW7Dl
— Peter Meijer (@RepMeijer) August 10, 2024

COATES: Is your concern that it's -- oh, go ahead. I do want to ask this question quickly, Sergeant Major, and I appreciate your time, but is your -- [crosstalk] -- concern about the manner in which he did not speak to you or his decision to retire, which he, as we've talked about, he would have been entitled to do, which causes the most concern? Because that is the focus that so many people are wondering about, whether he has done something wrong in service or done something personally to offend you.

JULIN: No, he did something wrong in service, as I stated before. He knew the policies and procedures and how we go to leadership and address issues or discuss issues and concerns out there. Again, backing up, he had told me, no, I'm going forward, we're going to go with the battalion, and go from there. So, I'm under the believing, he told me he was going forward. I'm underneath that believing that he's going forward. He went around me, which he should have addressed it with me so he could help me with some things out there.

COATES: Sergeant Major, this was really -- excuse me, I don't want to cut you off, sir. Finish your point, please, Sergeant Major.

JULIN: He went around me. And the fact is that there's a possibility he probably would have realized. I would have probably said, no, it's too late, you're going forward, because we'd already received our notification of sourcing. And there's one other little point out there that people say, well, he hadn't been notified yet. Yes, he had been notified.

Now, there's another step out there. It is what's called stop loss. Ninety days prior to the actual deployment, we received our orders. And at that time is what's called stop loss, where if you're in a position, you're going forward irregardless, unless there's some really major or process --

COATES: Hmm, okay.

JULIN: -- that gets you out from not going on the deployment itself. So, there's that window of opportunity there. People say, well, he never knew he was going forward. Yeah, he knew he was going forward. Had he gotten his orders yet? No. At that time, he had not.

"Stop-loss" was a bigger story in those days, a controversial policy that had the effect of extending enlistments, sometimes involuntarily. What Julin describes is the reason for the policy and why it's important to military planning and logistics, especially for key leadership positions -- such as Command Sergeants Major. Planned retirements allow for personnel movements ahead of deployments, which gives units such as Walz' time to have new leadership integrate fully into the mission.

Bailing out within weeks of a deployment, on the other hand, leaves the unit without fully effective leadership. That's why Julin would have rejected the retirement application at that stage -- and knowing that, Walz went around him and over his head instead of following the chain of command. And that's why Julin is so unhappy with Walz.

And it's not as if Walz didn't have any warning that a deployment would take place. In the first couple of years of the Iraq War, National Guard deployments were common (and also somewhat controversial for that reason), but Walz had a specific warning in the fall of 2004. Yet he waited until the unit got tasked for deployment to suddenly retire:

JULIN: ... And I'm going to kind of start back in the fall of 2004, is what we received, my commander and myself, of the 1st Brigade 34th Infantry Division Brigade Combat Team, what's called a notification of sourcing, which is a NOS. We were informed that we would be alerted to go to Iraq within the next upcoming year or time period out there, start preparing your team, getting your team together, and let's get the process in play.

From that going forward, we met with one of the 125 Field Artillery, introduced ourselves, talked to them, and gave them a heads up, this is what's happening, we don't know the full particulars, but we will get to it.

In approximately February of 2005, my boss, my commander, colonel, and the command team, we scheduled a meeting at Camp Ripley, Minnesota for a meeting, getting everybody together so all the battalion sergeant majors, the battalion commanders, and the staff would get to see each other and kind of start the team building event in that concept there.

At that meeting was Governor Tim Walz or Sergeant Major Tim Walz at the time. When we had the meeting and it was over with, he asked to speak with me, and we sat down and spoke one-on-one, and that's where he informed me, he says, just to let you know, I have put a bid in for Congress. I have not been selected yet, I have not been nominated yet, but I just want to let you know. He gave me a warning order, which we call a warning order out there.

Instead, Walz waited until June and backdoored Julin. And as a provisional CSM himself, Walz knew better, Julin tells Coates:

JULIN: The real thing is that the level that he held at that time, which could have been either a First Sergeant, but he was conditionally promoted to Command Sergeant Major, he knew the rules or the policies or the procedures and the manner of how to address issues going forward.

If this would have been an early entry, low-level ranking individual, different story. We would have understood that, okay, he didn't understand the processes and the procedures. Tim Walz knew the processes and the procedures. He went around me and above and beyond me and went -- and basically went to get somebody to back him, to get him out of there without -- it was just a backdoor process that he handled against me or against the battalion out there.

The most galling part of this, for Julin and others in the unit who deployed without Walz, is his at least tacit embrace of the term "combat veteran." The Iraq War deployment would have been the first combat assignment Walz got in his 24-year National Guard career, and he 'retired' abruptly to avoid it.

We know how Julin feels about that. How about the rest of Walz' unit? Well, consider just how angry a unit chaplain would have to be to call Walz a coward:

The chaplain of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s field artillery regiment said there is no excuse for the Democratic VP pick to have abandoned his National Guard unit before a critical deployment — not even running for Congress.

“In our world, to drop out after a WARNORD [warning order] is issued is cowardly, especially for a senior enlisted guy,” retired Capt. Corey Bjertness, now a pastor in Horace, North Dakota, told The Post.

Bjertness, 61, was the chaplain for the 1st Battalion, 125th Field Artillery, of which Walz was command sergeant major before retiring in 2005, two months before the unit deployed to Iraq. Walz has said he did so to run for Congress, and he was elected the next year.

“Running for Congress is not an excuse,” Bjertness said of Walz’s decision to quit. “I stopped everything and went to war. I left my wife with three teenagers and a 6-year-old and I was gone for 19 months.” Thomas Behrends, the command sergeant major who replaced Walz, previously told The Post of the Minnesota governor: “He had the opportunity to serve his country, and said ‘Screw you’ to the United States.”

They seem less than impressed, to say the least.

Clearly this is a legitimate issue for Walz, especially among his own men in the unit. Oddly, we haven't heard from any fellow soldiers defending Walz's actions, which one might expect if these were only allegations from people with political axes to grind. Perhaps we'll get a couple of testimonials later, but I'd bet it will come from veterans who weren't among those deployed in 2005.

Still, while this is a legit character issue, I wonder just how much impact this will have on the arc of the election. Most voters don't have military experience at all and will look at Walz' service for 24 years as a net positive even with its controversial ending. His repeated lies about the nature of that service will certainly erode that positive take. In the first days of Walz' selection, the controversy can help to define him and Harris in her choice of running mate.

But in truth, voters decide their choice about their own lives, not about the candidates' history. They want an end to corrosive inflation, shrinking wages, and the three-plus years of an invasion on the border. The more Republicans talk about anything else, the more they let Kamala Harris and Tim Walz off the hook for those failures. And I'd bet Democrats are a lot more comfortable talking about Walz' service than they are about Border Czar Kamala's sorry record.

Not only is this stolen valor, but the man has ZERO HONOR for the oath he took. 24 years in the Reserves taking ALL of the benefits and the 1st time they need him and his vaulted "leadership" he runs like a little b!tch??? He doesn't need to be in any situation where the military is involved...EVER.

Tim Walz Created Challenge Coins with Higher Military Rank than Earned

A military podcaster has unearthed an image of a challenge coin that Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) allegedly made when he was a congressman, which features a higher military rank than Walz earned but has claimed for years.

A podcast hosted by a drill sergeant posted the image on Friday of the challenge coin, with Walz’s name and the insignia of a Command Sergeant Major, an E-9 rank in the Army.

He told Breitbart News: “The photo was taken by a soldier who received it from the Then Congressman and shared the photo with myself.”

Walz has claimed for two decades, since retiring in 2005, that he is a command sergeant major, despite his military paperwork showing he retired as a master sergeant, a lower rank of E-8.

A Daily Wire journalist said she also received information corroborating the coin was legitimate, and an X user found another post that also appeared to corroborate it was an authentic image.

Thanks, @DurwinPye, for sharing this post—not part of my sourcing, but clearly corroborating.

— Bree A Dail (@breeadail) August 11, 2024

The Harris-Walz campaign, confronted with questions over his rank, scrubbed Walz’s biography to reflect that he was not a retired command sergeant major as he has claimed. While he was promoted to a command sergeant major, it was conditional on him completing the requirements for the rank, which he did not.

He also retired months before his unit deployed to war, knowing it was headed on a deployment, according to Walz’s division commander Doug Julin, as Breitbart News has recently reported.

The campaign also claimed that Walz — who has never deployed to war — “misspoke” when he claimed in 2018 that he carried weapons “in war.”

The coin, if authentic, shows that Walz willfully misrepresented his rank as a congressman.

Tim Walz repeatedly hosted Muslim cleric who celebrated Oct. 7 and shared pro-Hitler website link

By Gabe Kaminsky
August 9, 2024 7:00 am

Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, on at least five occasions as governor of Minnesota, hosted a Muslim cleric who celebrated Hamas‘s Oct. 7 attack last year on Israel and promoted a film popular among Neo-Nazis that glorifies Adolf Hitler, the Washington Examiner found.

The imam, Asad Zaman of the Muslim American Society of Minnesota, joined other Muslim leaders in May 2023 for a meeting about mosque security with Walz’s gubernatorial office in Minnesota. Zaman also spoke at a May 2020 event to call for peaceful protests with the governor during the riots in Minnesota sparked after George Floyd’s death. In April 2019, the cleric delivered an invocation before Walz’s state address — just months after Zaman called for an end to a government shutdown at a press conference with Walz in January 2019. Zaman, moreover, attended a May 2019 event that Walz hosted for Ramadan, social media posts show.

Walz’s ties to Zaman could serve as problematic baggage for the Minnesota governor as he campaigns with Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee. News of the ties also comes after a Washington Free Beacon report this week found Walz spoke at a 2019 event with an antisemitic scholar who has defended terrorism against Israel.

Zaman, who is from Bangladesh, said on Oct. 7 of last year that he “stands in solidarity with Palestinians against Israeli attacks.” That day, which saw 1,200 Israelis murdered by Hamas terrorists, he also shared an image of a Palestinian flag on Facebook in response to a post by Yusuf Abdi Abdulle, director of the Islamic Association of North America, declaring that “Palestine has the right to defend itself.” The Biden-Harris administration, Abdulle wrote in the post, was “on the wrong side of history” in “supporting the extremist Zionist regime and its illegal settlements.”
