Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz Faces Scrutiny Over Alleged Lies on Nebraska Chamber Award and Harvard Program
Aug 24, 2024, 06:18 PM
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is facing scrutiny over multiple allegations of embellishing his personal and professional history. Critics have accused Walz of lying about his military service, claiming he was part of a Harvard University program, and receiving an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce. The Nebraska Chamber of Commerce has publicly refuted Walz's claim of receiving an award, stating that they had endorsed his opponent. Additionally, Walz's biography falsely stated his participation in a Harvard program, which was actually organized by a non-profit founded by Harvard students. Walz has also been criticized for his remarks during a DNC speech, where he touted his military service amid a 'stolen valor' controversy. Furthermore, his personal IVF story has been exposed as a fabrication. These allegations have led to widespread criticism, with some commentators labeling Walz as a 'pathological liar.'
