You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure
you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or
wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the Buck Brief.
The three biggest accusations of stolen valor against Governor Tim
Walls of Minnesota. Let's dive right into them, because some
(00:32):
are saying this is ruining the Kamala Harris ticket. Even
more people I'm here in are saying they think Tim
Walls might not make it all the way through to
election date. Now I don't agree with that, but I
did want to get into what the allegations are. Number One,
here he is saying that he carried weapons in War
(00:55):
Hook Wo.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Cup like many of you did five weeks ago. And
Dad said, Dad, you're the only person I know who's
an elected office. You need to stop what's happening with this.
I'll take my kick in the butt for the NRA.
I spent twenty five years in the army, and I
hunt and I gave the money back. And I'll tell
you what I have been doing. I've been voting for
Commons legislation that protects a second Amendment. But we can
do background checks, we can do CDC research, we can
make sure we don't have reciprocal carry amongst states, and
(01:17):
we can make sure that those weapons of war that
I carried in war is the only place where those
weapons were.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Now, this is particularly annoying because he's not only lying,
he's lying to make himself seem like he's more of
a let's be honest, badass than he is, more courageous
than he was. But also he is lying in service
of a terrible argument, which is that the most common
(01:47):
rifle in usage in America, the AR fifteen, is a
quote weapon of war. If he had actually served in
Iraq or Afghanistan, he would have most likely been issued
an M four, which is fully automatic or has a
fully automatic selector switch on it. It's not an AR fifteen.
(02:09):
And effectively, he's using a lie to try and undermine
a constitutional right and doing so as a demagogue. And
that's why people are annoyed. Okay, the guy is the
roly poly next door Minnesota neighbor that you, oh, yeah,
(02:30):
he's a nice guy, but he's not. He's actually a communist.
This is a front, this is a facade, and that
he's a veteran and a coach and a person of
honor and integrity is also a facade. So once you
start to pull this it falls apart. This is a
man who thinks that BLM was a good thing and
didn't do what he could have in his power to
(02:51):
save a lot of people from having their businesses looted
and burned down. This is a man who believed that
it was and still is his job as governor to
engage in racial Marxism, the redistribution of jobs, government contracts
based along race, which, as we know the Supreme Court,
at least in the context of college admissions. I said,
(03:14):
this is just flatly unconstitutional. It's wrong, it's unethical, and
it's illegal. But to say that he carried weapons in war, no,
he did not, Okay, And we could even get into
these distinctions. I carried weapons in a war zone. I
never fired a shot and anger, I did not see combat.
(03:34):
Everyone can understand these differences, right, But he didn't even
do that. He wasn't even in an active war zone
with a weapon with the expectation that if he were
shot at he would return fire and engage the enemy,
or that he might have to engage the enemy offensively.
He never did that, Okay, so's he's adding, he's puffing
(03:55):
up his military resume by even making that claim. Clearly
he says it. So he's lying, and he's lying for
illicit purpose, which is trying to suppress your Second Amendment rights.
He should be ashamed of himself, but he is not,
because he's a communist. He's a communist. So this is
like what he does. This is not a surprise. Okay,
(04:17):
We're going to get to the second biggest lie that
he has told that as military record. First up our
word from our sponsor, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
Amid rising tensions in Israel and following this week's direct
threat of an attack from Iran, the International Fellowship of
Christians and Jews welcome the flight of one hundred and
fifty five new immigrants from France to Israel, despite the
(04:37):
threat of an intensifying war. This is the second such
flight the Fellowship has welcome to Israel this week. This
latest flight brings the number of French Jewish citizens who
have arrived in Israel since October seventh to more than
one thousand. The fact that Jews are still willing to
go to a country underdirect attack rather than live in
France and fear speaks volumes to the incredible rise in
unchecked anti Semitism. IFCJ does all they can to help
(05:00):
these new Israeli citizens. Join us in donating what you
can to the IFCJ to help them meet urgent security needs.
And thanks to a generous IFCJ supporter, your gift will
be matched, doubling its impact. Call to make your gift
right now at eight eight four eight eight IFCJ. That's
eight eight eight four eight eight IFCJ. We're going to
support IFCJ dot org. All one word SUPPORTIFCJ dot org.
(05:25):
The second biggest lie that Tim Walls has told that
he served in Afghanistan. He served in Operation Enduring Freedom. No,
he did not, and this is very straightforward. Were you
ever in the nation of Afghanistan during the war in
a military role? If the answer is no, you did
(05:48):
not serve in the military in Afghanistan, again puffing up
his resume, But he's trying to say I was in Italy,
and by being in Italy, I was in support of
the combat in Afghanistan. To this, I just want to say,
first of all, Tim, we've all seen you. You were of
(06:10):
finding the best ricotta cheese pizza. Okay, let's be honest.
You were not doing anything that involved more than paperwork
and maybe some you know, drilling or something on the
parade ground. You were not in any way involved in
direct support to combat. And now, to be clear, if
he was flying combat missions from Italy into Afghanistan, that
(06:33):
then that is serving in combat in operation and during
freedom right, if you're entering the airspace as a combatant. Okay, fine,
that's a difference. He didn't do that. He was just
in a base in Italy. He was like, Joo, I
drink it my espresso, and like he Didn'tki didn't. Yaki
is a delicious mario, you know what I mean? Like,
(06:53):
that's what's going on here. So clearly that was another
instance of absolute resume puffery, you know, puffing up his
resume in a way that I think people are rightly
annoyed and and grossed out by. You know, this is
you're running for public office. He's not like just some
(07:14):
guy who said this at a bar. He's presenting this
to the voters in order to make them believe him
and believe in him. More so, there's real stakes here,
do you know what I mean? It's not just Look,
you know, people, if he was a guy and he
was like twenty five and he said it a little
drunk at a bar, Yeah, I served in Afghanistan. That's
not cool. It's not okay. But he's not trying to be,
(07:38):
in this case, the second most powerful person in the
country based on the lies, right. I mean, there's there's
like grades to the lie. There's degrees to how bad
the lie really is. You know, if he was a
single guy and like, how hot is the girl you're
hitting on when you're telling him the puffed up story?
You know what i mean. I'm just saying, I'm just
I'm kidding. It's a joke. It's never okay. It's never okay.
But to say it so that you can be not
(08:01):
just a congressman and now a governor, but possibly the
vice president of United State, it's a heartbeat away from
the presidency. Yeah, it's a big deal. I can understand
why people have a problem with it, But it also
just goes to he is he is claiming to have
the character of a combat veteran so that people will
trust him, and what we know about him is that
he actually is a man of very little character. He's
(08:23):
somebody who does not believe in the difference between right
and wrong. He's somebody who thinks that twelve year old
should have gender surgery or gender drugs and created Minnesota
as a safe haven for gender transitions. I mean, this
is this is a terrible thing that he's done. Policy
was terrible thing that he's done. But he prevents me normally.
(08:44):
He puts tampons in the boys' bathroom in schools. People
are calling him tampon Tim. I mean, it's disgraceful. It's disgraceful.
But this is, this is his ideology. He's a communist
wrapped in the exterior of a cuddly Midwestern dad and
(09:04):
veteran that you can trust. And that's what I find
so gross about it is that all the things things
that you would think of a good, salt of the
earth midwestern dad, this guy is opposed to. Okay, he's
a kami, but that's how they play this game. You know,
I'm launching a newsletter. It's gonna be weekly. It's exciting
(09:24):

amazing stuff coming your way. Go sign up today, all right.
And the third worst part of tampon Tim's stolen valor
(10:26):
allegations accusations is that he left his guys behind. This
is the one that my friend Sean Parnell came on
the radio show and just absolutely tore Walls apart on
that he was the highest noncommissioned officer for his battalion,
and he must have known that they were going to
get deployed. I mean, it's impossible he couldn't have known
that they were going to get deployed given what was
(10:48):
going on. And right before he was going to be deployed,
he said audio see you later after twenty four years.
So he got to go to Italy, collected a paycheck
for twenty four years, and when it came time to
actually be a war fighter, not only did he back
off of that and run away from that, he left
his people behind. And in the military, I think that's
(11:08):
the part that is pissing off veterans more than anything else.
That's the unpardonable sin is to abandon your brothers in arms,
and that's what Tim Walls did. So Democrats can say
all they want about how he's a cuddly guy and
he's served and all this stuff, and they can even
(11:30):
do what Brianna Keeler Overtsea and ended where she says jd.
Vance is called the combat correspondent. That is his technical title,
but it makes people think that he saw combat because
he's a combat correspondent. I mean, she's a moron, but
they're just desperate to try to throw up anything they
can to prevent people from recognizing the truth about this guy.
And it is not surprising to see that is how
(11:52):
they operate, because the entire Kamala Harris Tim Wall's campaign
is just based in lies, the whole thing. And that's
why I'm confident Trump's gonna win. Have a great weekend,
everybody shield time.
