Welcome to the Buck Brief. 4 00:00:21,337 --> 00:00:28,377 Speaker 1: The three biggest accusations of stolen valor against Governor Tim 5 00:00:28,577 --> 00:00:32,737 Speaker 1: Walls of Minnesota. Let's dive right into them, because some 6 00:00:32,857 --> 00:00:37,777 Speaker 1: are saying this is ruining the Kamala Harris ticket. Even 7 00:00:37,857 --> 00:00:40,657 Speaker 1: more people I'm here in are saying they think Tim 8 00:00:40,697 --> 00:00:42,217 Speaker 1: Walls might not make it all the way through to 9 00:00:42,297 --> 00:00:45,657 Speaker 1: election date. Now I don't agree with that, but I 10 00:00:45,697 --> 00:00:49,897 Speaker 1: did want to get into what the allegations are. Number One, 11 00:00:50,657 --> 00:00:54,577 Speaker 1: here he is saying that he carried weapons in War 12 00:00:55,697 --> 00:00:56,217 Speaker 1: Hook Wo. 13 00:00:56,217 --> 00:00:58,057 Speaker 2: Cup like many of you did five weeks ago. And 14 00:00:58,097 --> 00:00:59,857 Speaker 2: Dad said, Dad, you're the only person I know who's 15 00:00:59,857 --> 00:01:02,177 Speaker 2: an elected office. You need to stop what's happening with this. 16 00:01:02,337 --> 00:01:03,977 Speaker 2: I'll take my kick in the butt for the NRA. 17 00:01:04,137 --> 00:01:05,937 Speaker 2: I spent twenty five years in the army, and I 18 00:01:06,057 --> 00:01:08,137 Speaker 2: hunt and I gave the money back. And I'll tell 19 00:01:08,137 --> 00:01:09,657 Speaker 2: you what I have been doing. I've been voting for 20 00:01:09,697 --> 00:01:12,617 Speaker 2: Commons legislation that protects a second Amendment. But we can 21 00:01:12,657 --> 00:01:15,177 Speaker 2: do background checks, we can do CDC research, we can 22 00:01:15,217 --> 00:01:17,657 Speaker 2: make sure we don't have reciprocal carry amongst states, and 23 00:01:17,737 --> 00:01:19,457 Speaker 2: we can make sure that those weapons of war that 24 00:01:19,497 --> 00:01:21,697 Speaker 2: I carried in war is the only place where those 25 00:01:21,737 --> 00:01:22,297 Speaker 2: weapons were. 26 00:01:25,297 --> 00:01:30,297 Speaker 1: Now, this is particularly annoying because he's not only lying, 27 00:01:31,337 --> 00:01:34,737 Speaker 1: he's lying to make himself seem like he's more of 28 00:01:34,777 --> 00:01:38,697 Speaker 1: a let's be honest, badass than he is, more courageous 29 00:01:38,697 --> 00:01:42,817 Speaker 1: than he was. But also he is lying in service 30 00:01:43,057 --> 00:01:47,497 Speaker 1: of a terrible argument, which is that the most common 31 00:01:47,617 --> 00:01:52,577 Speaker 1: rifle in usage in America, the AR fifteen, is a 32 00:01:52,697 --> 00:01:56,457 Speaker 1: quote weapon of war. If he had actually served in 33 00:01:56,497 --> 00:02:01,537 Speaker 1: Iraq or Afghanistan, he would have most likely been issued 34 00:02:01,537 --> 00:02:04,417 Speaker 1: an M four, which is fully automatic or has a 35 00:02:04,417 --> 00:02:08,977 Speaker 1: fully automatic selector switch on it. It's not an AR fifteen. 36 00:02:09,657 --> 00:02:16,177 Speaker 1: And effectively, he's using a lie to try and undermine 37 00:02:16,337 --> 00:02:19,977 Speaker 1: a constitutional right and doing so as a demagogue. And 38 00:02:20,017 --> 00:02:23,417 Speaker 1: that's why people are annoyed. Okay, the guy is the 39 00:02:24,217 --> 00:02:30,177 Speaker 1: roly poly next door Minnesota neighbor that you, oh, yeah, 40 00:02:30,177 --> 00:02:33,137 Speaker 1: he's a nice guy, but he's not. He's actually a communist. 41 00:02:33,537 --> 00:02:36,017 Speaker 1: This is a front, this is a facade, and that 42 00:02:36,097 --> 00:02:39,697 Speaker 1: he's a veteran and a coach and a person of 43 00:02:39,817 --> 00:02:43,777 Speaker 1: honor and integrity is also a facade. So once you 44 00:02:43,817 --> 00:02:47,417 Speaker 1: start to pull this it falls apart. This is a 45 00:02:47,417 --> 00:02:49,657 Speaker 1: man who thinks that BLM was a good thing and 46 00:02:49,737 --> 00:02:51,857 Speaker 1: didn't do what he could have in his power to 47 00:02:51,897 --> 00:02:54,497 Speaker 1: save a lot of people from having their businesses looted 48 00:02:54,537 --> 00:02:58,737 Speaker 1: and burned down. This is a man who believed that 49 00:02:58,857 --> 00:03:03,417 Speaker 1: it was and still is his job as governor to 50 00:03:03,617 --> 00:03:08,577 Speaker 1: engage in racial Marxism, the redistribution of jobs, government contracts 51 00:03:08,937 --> 00:03:11,857 Speaker 1: based along race, which, as we know the Supreme Court, 52 00:03:11,857 --> 00:03:14,017 Speaker 1: at least in the context of college admissions. I said, 53 00:03:14,017 --> 00:03:18,937 Speaker 1: this is just flatly unconstitutional. It's wrong, it's unethical, and 54 00:03:18,977 --> 00:03:22,857 Speaker 1: it's illegal. But to say that he carried weapons in war, no, 55 00:03:23,057 --> 00:03:25,817 Speaker 1: he did not, Okay, And we could even get into 56 00:03:25,817 --> 00:03:30,257 Speaker 1: these distinctions. I carried weapons in a war zone. I 57 00:03:30,377 --> 00:03:33,537 Speaker 1: never fired a shot and anger, I did not see combat. 58 00:03:34,177 --> 00:03:37,297 Speaker 1: Everyone can understand these differences, right, But he didn't even 59 00:03:37,337 --> 00:03:40,937 Speaker 1: do that. He wasn't even in an active war zone 60 00:03:41,337 --> 00:03:45,057 Speaker 1: with a weapon with the expectation that if he were 61 00:03:45,097 --> 00:03:47,977 Speaker 1: shot at he would return fire and engage the enemy, 62 00:03:48,057 --> 00:03:50,817 Speaker 1: or that he might have to engage the enemy offensively. 63 00:03:51,817 --> 00:03:55,777 Speaker 1: He never did that, Okay, so's he's adding, he's puffing 64 00:03:55,857 --> 00:03:59,777 Speaker 1: up his military resume by even making that claim. Clearly 65 00:03:59,817 --> 00:04:02,217 Speaker 1: he says it. So he's lying, and he's lying for 66 00:04:02,577 --> 00:04:06,737 Speaker 1: illicit purpose, which is trying to suppress your Second Amendment rights. 67 00:04:06,777 --> 00:04:10,617 Speaker 1: He should be ashamed of himself, but he is not, 68 00:04:10,657 --> 00:04:13,257 Speaker 1: because he's a communist. He's a communist. So this is 69 00:04:13,337 --> 00:04:17,177 Speaker 1: like what he does. This is not a surprise. Okay, 70 00:04:17,497 --> 00:04:21,377 Speaker 1: We're going to get to the second biggest lie that 71 00:04:21,417 --> 00:04:23,257 Speaker 1: he has told that as military record. First up our 72 00:04:23,257 --> 00:04:26,177 Speaker 1: word from our sponsor, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. 73 00:04:26,617 --> 00:04:29,337 Speaker 1: Amid rising tensions in Israel and following this week's direct 74 00:04:29,377 --> 00:04:32,417 Speaker 1: threat of an attack from Iran, the International Fellowship of 75 00:04:32,497 --> 00:04:34,297 Speaker 1: Christians and Jews welcome the flight of one hundred and 76 00:04:34,337 --> 00:04:37,617 Speaker 1: fifty five new immigrants from France to Israel, despite the 77 00:04:37,617 --> 00:04:40,017 Speaker 1: threat of an intensifying war. This is the second such 78 00:04:40,057 --> 00:04:44,977 Speaker 1: flight the Fellowship has welcome to Israel this week. This 79 00:04:45,137 --> 00:04:47,817 Speaker 1: latest flight brings the number of French Jewish citizens who 80 00:04:47,817 --> 00:04:49,817 Speaker 1: have arrived in Israel since October seventh to more than 81 00:04:49,857 --> 00:04:52,217 Speaker 1: one thousand. The fact that Jews are still willing to 82 00:04:52,257 --> 00:04:54,617 Speaker 1: go to a country underdirect attack rather than live in 83 00:04:54,657 --> 00:04:57,217 Speaker 1: France and fear speaks volumes to the incredible rise in 84 00:04:57,297 --> 00:05:00,737 Speaker 1: unchecked anti Semitism. IFCJ does all they can to help 85 00:05:00,777 --> 00:05:03,777 Speaker 1: these new Israeli citizens.

All one word SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. 92 00:05:25,457 --> 00:05:30,097 Speaker 1: The second biggest lie that Tim Walls has told that 93 00:05:30,177 --> 00:05:35,777 Speaker 1: he served in Afghanistan. He served in Operation Enduring Freedom. No, 94 00:05:35,937 --> 00:05:39,497 Speaker 1: he did not, and this is very straightforward. Were you 95 00:05:39,577 --> 00:05:44,017 Speaker 1: ever in the nation of Afghanistan during the war in 96 00:05:44,057 --> 00:05:48,337 Speaker 1: a military role? If the answer is no, you did 97 00:05:48,337 --> 00:05:53,417 Speaker 1: not serve in the military in Afghanistan, again puffing up 98 00:05:53,457 --> 00:05:58,937 Speaker 1: his resume, But he's trying to say I was in Italy, 99 00:05:59,897 --> 00:06:03,417 Speaker 1: and by being in Italy, I was in support of 100 00:06:04,417 --> 00:06:07,257 Speaker 1: the combat in Afghanistan. To this, I just want to say, 101 00:06:07,297 --> 00:06:10,537 Speaker 1: first of all, Tim, we've all seen you. You were of 102 00:06:10,577 --> 00:06:14,537 Speaker 1: finding the best ricotta cheese pizza. Okay, let's be honest. 103 00:06:14,577 --> 00:06:17,817 Speaker 1: You were not doing anything that involved more than paperwork 104 00:06:18,297 --> 00:06:21,297 Speaker 1: and maybe some you know, drilling or something on the 105 00:06:21,297 --> 00:06:24,377 Speaker 1: parade ground. You were not in any way involved in 106 00:06:24,417 --> 00:06:26,817 Speaker 1: direct support to combat. And now, to be clear, if 107 00:06:26,857 --> 00:06:33,097 Speaker 1: he was flying combat missions from Italy into Afghanistan, that 108 00:06:33,257 --> 00:06:38,017 Speaker 1: then that is serving in combat in operation and during 109 00:06:38,017 --> 00:06:42,217 Speaker 1: freedom right, if you're entering the airspace as a combatant. Okay, fine, 110 00:06:42,897 --> 00:06:44,497 Speaker 1: that's a difference. He didn't do that. He was just 111 00:06:44,497 --> 00:06:46,337 Speaker 1: in a base in Italy. He was like, Joo, I 112 00:06:46,417 --> 00:06:50,657 Speaker 1: drink it my espresso, and like he Didn'tki didn't. Yaki 113 00:06:50,737 --> 00:06:53,817 Speaker 1: is a delicious mario, you know what I mean? Like, 114 00:06:53,897 --> 00:06:58,057 Speaker 1: that's what's going on here. So clearly that was another 115 00:06:58,297 --> 00:07:04,217 Speaker 1: instance of absolute resume puffery, you know, puffing up his 116 00:07:04,417 --> 00:07:08,177 Speaker 1: resume in a way that I think people are rightly 117 00:07:09,337 --> 00:07:12,777 Speaker 1: annoyed and and grossed out by. You know, this is 118 00:07:12,977 --> 00:07:14,857 Speaker 1: you're running for public office. He's not like just some 119 00:07:14,937 --> 00:07:17,617 Speaker 1: guy who said this at a bar. He's presenting this 120 00:07:17,817 --> 00:07:21,697 Speaker 1: to the voters in order to make them believe him 121 00:07:21,777 --> 00:07:25,097 Speaker 1: and believe in him. More so, there's real stakes here, 122 00:07:25,137 --> 00:07:26,377 Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? It's not just Look, 123 00:07:26,457 --> 00:07:29,137 Speaker 1: you know, people, if he was a guy and he 124 00:07:29,217 --> 00:07:30,857 Speaker 1: was like twenty five and he said it a little 125 00:07:30,937 --> 00:07:33,177 Speaker 1: drunk at a bar, Yeah, I served in Afghanistan. That's 126 00:07:33,177 --> 00:07:37,017 Speaker 1: not cool. It's not okay. But he's not trying to be, 127 00:07:38,497 --> 00:07:40,457 Speaker 1: in this case, the second most powerful person in the 128 00:07:40,457 --> 00:07:43,137 Speaker 1: country based on the lies, right. I mean, there's there's 129 00:07:43,217 --> 00:07:45,817 Speaker 1: like grades to the lie. There's degrees to how bad 130 00:07:45,817 --> 00:07:49,537 Speaker 1: the lie really is. You know, if he was a 131 00:07:49,537 --> 00:07:51,457 Speaker 1: single guy and like, how hot is the girl you're 132 00:07:51,497 --> 00:07:53,377 Speaker 1: hitting on when you're telling him the puffed up story? 133 00:07:53,377 --> 00:07:54,737 Speaker 1: You know what i mean. I'm just saying, I'm just 134 00:07:54,897 --> 00:07:57,577 Speaker 1: I'm kidding. It's a joke. It's never okay. It's never okay. 135 00:07:58,257 --> 00:08:01,337 Speaker 1: But to say it so that you can be not 136 00:08:01,457 --> 00:08:04,937 Speaker 1: just a congressman and now a governor, but possibly the 137 00:08:04,977 --> 00:08:06,777 Speaker 1: vice president of United State, it's a heartbeat away from 138 00:08:06,777 --> 00:08:09,017 Speaker 1: the presidency. Yeah, it's a big deal. I can understand 139 00:08:09,017 --> 00:08:11,377 Speaker 1: why people have a problem with it, But it also 140 00:08:11,457 --> 00:08:14,577 Speaker 1: just goes to he is he is claiming to have 141 00:08:14,617 --> 00:08:18,417 Speaker 1: the character of a combat veteran so that people will 142 00:08:18,417 --> 00:08:20,017 Speaker 1: trust him, and what we know about him is that 143 00:08:20,057 --> 00:08:23,817 Speaker 1: he actually is a man of very little character. He's 144 00:08:23,817 --> 00:08:27,177 Speaker 1: somebody who does not believe in the difference between right 145 00:08:27,217 --> 00:08:29,097 Speaker 1: and wrong. He's somebody who thinks that twelve year old 146 00:08:29,097 --> 00:08:33,777 Speaker 1: should have gender surgery or gender drugs and created Minnesota 147 00:08:33,817 --> 00:08:36,217 Speaker 1: as a safe haven for gender transitions. I mean, this 148 00:08:36,017 --> 00:08:39,097 Speaker 1: is this is a terrible thing that he's done. Policy 149 00:08:39,257 --> 00:08:43,977 Speaker 1: was terrible thing that he's done. But he prevents me normally. 150 00:08:44,017 --> 00:08:47,697 Speaker 1: He puts tampons in the boys' bathroom in schools. People 151 00:08:47,697 --> 00:08:52,777 Speaker 1: are calling him tampon Tim. I mean, it's disgraceful. It's disgraceful. 152 00:08:52,897 --> 00:08:57,057 Speaker 1: But this is, this is his ideology. He's a communist 153 00:08:57,697 --> 00:09:04,097 Speaker 1: wrapped in the exterior of a cuddly Midwestern dad and 154 00:09:04,217 --> 00:09:06,297 Speaker 1: veteran that you can trust. And that's what I find 155 00:09:06,457 --> 00:09:10,297 Speaker 1: so gross about it is that all the things things 156 00:09:10,337 --> 00:09:12,537 Speaker 1: that you would think of a good, salt of the 157 00:09:12,537 --> 00:09:16,697 Speaker 1: earth midwestern dad, this guy is opposed to. Okay, he's 158 00:09:16,697 --> 00:09:20,977 Speaker 1: a kami, but that's how they play this game. You know, 159 00:09:21,017 --> 00:09:24,497 Speaker 1: I'm launching a newsletter.

This 181 00:10:30,937 --> 00:10:32,617 Speaker 1: is the one that my friend Sean Parnell came on 182 00:10:32,617 --> 00:10:37,777 Speaker 1: the radio show and just absolutely tore Walls apart on 183 00:10:38,457 --> 00:10:41,457 Speaker 1: that he was the highest noncommissioned officer for his battalion, 184 00:10:42,137 --> 00:10:44,617 Speaker 1: and he must have known that they were going to 185 00:10:44,617 --> 00:10:46,577 Speaker 1: get deployed. I mean, it's impossible he couldn't have known 186 00:10:46,617 --> 00:10:47,977 Speaker 1: that they were going to get deployed given what was 187 00:10:48,017 --> 00:10:51,417 Speaker 1: going on. And right before he was going to be deployed, 188 00:10:51,457 --> 00:10:53,977 Speaker 1: he said audio see you later after twenty four years. 189 00:10:54,457 --> 00:10:56,217 Speaker 1: So he got to go to Italy, collected a paycheck 190 00:10:56,257 --> 00:10:59,057 Speaker 1: for twenty four years, and when it came time to 191 00:10:59,097 --> 00:11:03,217 Speaker 1: actually be a war fighter, not only did he back 192 00:11:03,297 --> 00:11:05,737 Speaker 1: off of that and run away from that, he left 193 00:11:05,777 --> 00:11:08,857 Speaker 1: his people behind. And in the military, I think that's 194 00:11:08,897 --> 00:11:12,577 Speaker 1: the part that is pissing off veterans more than anything else. 195 00:11:13,697 --> 00:11:19,577 Speaker 1: That's the unpardonable sin is to abandon your brothers in arms, 196 00:11:20,537 --> 00:11:24,857 Speaker 1: and that's what Tim Walls did. So Democrats can say 197 00:11:24,857 --> 00:11:27,217 Speaker 1: all they want about how he's a cuddly guy and 198 00:11:27,217 --> 00:11:30,657 Speaker 1: he's served and all this stuff, and they can even 199 00:11:30,697 --> 00:11:34,737 Speaker 1: do what Brianna Keeler Overtsea and ended where she says jd. 200 00:11:34,897 --> 00:11:38,137 Speaker 1: Vance is called the combat correspondent. That is his technical title, 201 00:11:38,217 --> 00:11:40,897 Speaker 1: but it makes people think that he saw combat because 202 00:11:40,897 --> 00:11:44,817 Speaker 1: he's a combat correspondent. I mean, she's a moron, but 203 00:11:44,857 --> 00:11:47,017 Speaker 1: they're just desperate to try to throw up anything they 204 00:11:47,057 --> 00:11:50,297 Speaker 1: can to prevent people from recognizing the truth about this guy. 205 00:11:50,537 --> 00:11:52,777 Speaker 1: And it is not surprising to see that is how 206 00:11:52,817 --> 00:11:57,017 Speaker 1: they operate, because the entire Kamala Harris Tim Wall's campaign 207 00:11:57,177 --> 00:12:01,457 Speaker 1: is just based in lies, the whole thing. And that's 208 00:12:01,497 --> 00:12:04,337 Speaker 1: why I'm confident Trump's gonna win. Have a great weekend, 209 00:12:04,377 --> 00:12:06,097 Speaker 1: everybody shield time.
