If only we held all politicians to the standard for Walz. He was preparing to go and then there in the immediate aftermath, what a pathological liar.
One thing I am confused about: when did Walz claim to be in China during Tiananmen Square? Did Kaczynski lie? He quotes Walz as saying he was in Hong Kong on that day, and then in China after. He shows that Walz went to Hong Kong in August, not June... but he said Walz claimed he was in CHINA that day. He didn't. He said Hong Kong, which was then British. Wow, another report so giddy for a gotcha that it falls on its face. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handover_of_Hong_Kong
I have no issue with unions per se for the benefit of workers. Like most things it is the bloated, selfish leaders who take advantage for personal gain. I have had family members both in and out of unions. $900k/year is a bit much if you asked me. His background is a little sketchy. Supposedly the dude voted for Biden in 2020 but met with Trump in 2023. https://ilaunion.org/ila-president-...-productive-meeting-last-november-with-trump/ My opinion, they are both transactional and will act in accordance with their best interests. Period.
Unions have no problem going on strike and hurting the everyday American but businesses that want tariffs to even the playing field with China and other countries are evil. When will people realize everyone is out for their own best interest.
He was in Hong Kong and then China, just starting in August, not June. If in 31 years I say I was in Thailand during the start of covid, you can say I lied because things didn't shut down until a month later. If I say I was in Thailand before covid, you can say I lied because it was already circulating in China and in the pacific northwest by then. He was in that part of the world when those protests and their aftermath occurred. He got the exact month wrong 35 years later when speaking off the cuff. Big [uck fay]ing deal.
No, he was making it seem like he was there when it was going down, and in terms of the protests and immediate reactions he was but not for the big event. This didn't all happen on a single day, the tanks running down the guy did.
Yes, Hong Kong was just over it and not at all worried about rejoining China in 9 years. Everyone in China who would go to jail if they even mentioned it were probably just over it too.
