Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz Faces 'Stolen Valor' and Nebraska Chamber Award Allegations
Aug 24, 2024, 05:36 PM
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is facing a series of allegations regarding false claims about his past accomplishments. The controversy began with accusations of 'stolen valor,' as Walz allegedly embellished his military service record during a DNC speech. Colorado Senator Michael Bennett has defended Walz against these accusations. South Carolina Representative William Timmons criticized Walz, calling his embellishments disgraceful. Further scrutiny has revealed that during his 2006 Congressional campaign, Walz falsely claimed he received an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce in 1993. The Chamber has since clarified that no such award was given, and they had endorsed his opponent.
