No, Tim Walz didn’t carry weapons in war; Yes, he misspoke: Harris campaign clarifies

Amid the ongoing controversy over Tim Walz’s military record, whether he opted out of the service just before his unit’s deployment in Iraq, the Harris-Walz campaign took a step back and admitted that yes, Tim Walz “misspoke” when he talked about carrying weapons in war — in 2018. The video resurfaced after Walz’s rival Ohio senator JD Vance called Walz’s military record as “stolen valor” and that he never went to war.
