Democratic lawmakers and organizers who once served in the U.S. military characterized GOP attacks on Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's military record as "unfounded" and "morally bankrupt" on a Thursday press call organized by the Democratic National Committee.
Republicans have been pushing the false line that Walz, who served in the National Guard for 24 years, abandoned his unit as it was being deployed to Iraq, with Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, characterizing his service as "stolen valor garbage."
