WALZ’S ETHICAL ISSUES, CORRUPTION, AND SCANDALS

  • Walz covered up Biden’s health, saying that it was “ageism” for Americans to be concerned about Biden’s fitness for office and that he would “take Joe Biden at 100 over any of these guys at whatever age they’re at because he’s delivering.” 
  • In 1995, Walz was arrested for going 96 mph in a 55 mph zone.
    • A state troopers report found “a strong odor of alcoholic beverage was detected emitting from Mr. Walz breath and person” and that he failed both a field sobriety test and a preliminary breath test.
    • While Walz was initially charged with driving under the influence and speeding, the charges were reduced to one count of reckless driving under a plea deal.
  • Walz has claimed in campaign materials that he is a former “Command Sergeant Major” in the Army National Guard despite not completing the requirements to hold the rank into retirement.
    • Walz did retire as a Command Sergeant Major, but his rank was later officially reduced to Master Sergeant due to his failure to complete the ranks requirements.
    • While the Minnesota National Guard says Walz is not incorrect for saying he served as Command Sergeant Major, former Minnesota National Guard members hold the opinion that “Yes, he served at that rank, but was never qualified at that rank, and will receive retirement benefits at one rank below. You be the judge.”
    • Walz has been criticized by three former National Guard members for quitting his position in 2005 after the unit was notified on their deployment to Iraq.
    • Walz claimed that his enlistment was up since he signed up for four years, but according to official documents, Walz actually re-enlisted for six years with a 2007 end-date.
    • In 2020, Walz disparaged the National Guard as not being “massively trained troops” but rather “19-year-olds who are cooks.” 
  • Walz has continued to maintain a close relationship with Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, despite Ellison’s previous allegations of abusing a girlfriend, his support for Louis Farrakhan, and his comparison of the Bush administration to Hitler’s Germany.
