That’s Weird, Politico Outlines Failed Vetting of Walz, Who Has Lying Problem
Quote:Politico is framing the “lack of vetting” as the reason Kamala Harris is now stuck with Tim Walz as a liability dragging down her campaign. The VP nominee is essentially outlined as a lying liar who lies, although they use the word “misspeak” frequently.
Strangely, or not, Politico never outlines that Tim Walz was specifically vetted by Eric Holder. As a consequence, if the political left is going to run with the excuse of failed vetting of Walz to explain Harris losing, they are essentially saying Eric Holder sunk Harris.

Key members of Harris’ circle weren’t aware of some of Walz’s inaccurate statements until they became public, despite the vetting process.
WASHINGTON DC – […] Since being tapped as Kamala Harris’ running mate, the folksy, plain-speaking Minnesota governor has had to explain a growing number of inaccurate statements — and at times embellishments — about his past. They range from comments about his military service to his visit to Hong Kong more than three decades ago to clarifying that his family didn’t specifically use in vitro fertilization.
It’s unclear whether Walz’s verbal errors will undercut his credibility with voters. But the need to continually clean up those claims could politically hurt Walz and Harris, who are locked in a tight race with Donald Trump and JD Vance. And in some cases, key members of Harris’ circle weren’t aware of some of the inaccurate statements until they became public despite the vetting process, according to four people familiar with the conversations who were granted anonymity to discuss the matter.

Something is askew in the world of the leftists because pointing out the vulnerabilities of a strategically important selection is never usually allowed.
Walz is transparently sketchy, that is a given. However, to see Politico highlight the Democrat VP nominee as a liar is a serious shift in traditional approach. If it was only this singular notation, then we might chalk it up to a rogue article posited to give the illusion of honest journalism. Alas, that’s not the case.
The Politico article is followed by a rather surprising segment on CNN where they note Governor Walz is essentially corrupt. WATCH:
Something is weird about this.
Is the media starting to position a justification defense to explain why Kamala Harris will lose?

Hell no, the Dems are likely scrambling to figure out how to replace Walz this late, lol.

I still want to know why Walz was fired from his HS coaching job in Nebraska and had to move to Minnesota.

This might explain why Walz looked so tentative and nervous in the debate with Vance. Perhaps he anticipated Vance bringing this issue into the debate? I bet Harris wishes she had gone with her other VP candidate.

Harris had nothing to do with picking her VP.

I don't know if I completely buy that. She knows she'll be a puppet so she wants to be able to pick someone who can be used just like she has been and potentially continue to be used. This would essentially be Obama's fourth term.
But hey, his abysmal performance last Tuesday against Vance as well as his interview on Fox News Sunday is helping to sink her campaign, if what I'm seeing and hearing is correct.

If memory serves.. He was an assistant coach and I think it stemmed from his DUI.

Harris/Walz was ordained to take both off the 2028 board.
