哈里斯在选择Tim Walz时完全沒有考虑平衡，他们两个社会主义者的联盟似乎要将美国带入混乱。大家要问的是，他们发放福利时钱从哪里来？
明尼苏达州自由左倾已经拥有相当的历史，自从尼克松在1972年赢得明州以后，超过半个世纪明州全投民主党总统。里根连任时50州中只丢了明尼苏达，所以明尼苏达是美国的共产主义明珠。更为极端的事实是，从1960年以来的所有美国总统选举，只有尼克松赢过一次明州。
明尼苏达是北欧人喜欢居住的漂亮湖区，大家别误会，我们都热爱美丽的明尼苏达，那里是垂钓的好地方。所有照片都不是欧洲某地，而是从网络上索取的迷人的明尼苏达。
瑞典与挪威人有多么左倾，明州人就有多么自由，孩子们换性别对他们无所谓。具体表现明州人的世界大同的理念至少有两个，明州大量接受索马里难民，他们的州长任凭暴徒们烧毁大片城区。
现在瑞典斯特哥尔摩的恶性案件也在激增，北欧和明州的福利制度正面临来自热带地区的人群的挑战。从人类学角度看问题，寒冷地区的人们需要辛苦出去觅食，热带人群则在外面晒太阳就行。
听过Tim Walz在费城的提名演讲的人都说他很有煽动性，他是我们见到的很会来事的二手车推销员。 从正面看待他，则可以说他是邻家大叔，但是他具有相当的欺骗性。
Tim Walz是美国普通的德国裔白人，不算太资深，头发和面相却似乎早过了70岁。没钱只有读最便宜的州立学院，注意我这里使用的是学院，不是文理学院。它是很少人知道的Chadron State College，为从教师学院发展起来的学院。Tim Walz也沒有读过法学院，只有个硕士，但是面临美国普通民众，他表达出仇恨Yale Law School的言论。
媒体挖出了Walz的酒驾照片，显示年轻的Walz向警察扯谎称自己是个聋子。我说他是个Car salesman没错吧，另外他的中国经历也不会为他的竞选增分。
我在前文就告诉JD Vance，他的对手Tim Walz不好对付：“JD Vance与Tim Walz的副总统辩论还不能掉以轻心，因为Walz本身就是教师出身，也很会说，况且在政坛也很有经验。但是Tim Walz太自由派了，在弗罗伊德案件上，任凭暴徒们烧毁了大量的街道”。
JD Vance的能力要比Tim Walz强一大节, 对不起了, 只能引用我在群里的英文留言：His responses to reporters were spontaneous, with impressive logical flow, quickness, and energy. This can't be faked; it must come from his inherent talent and excellent training, including his education at Yale and service in the U.S. Marine.（他回答记者的问题自然而流畅，展现了令人印象深刻的逻辑性、迅速性和活力。这些是无法伪装的，必定源于他自身的天赋和卓越的训练，包括他在耶鲁大学的教育以及在美国海军陆战队的服役）。
JD Vance的厉害和聪明程度已经让我想到当年的Bill Clinton, 他可以瞬间直接化被动为主动，逻辑清晰，陈述时信心十足。他超过Clinton的地方是，他比克林顿更有力度和决心，因为他毕竟是美军训练出来的，他真是美国难得的人才。
Tim Walz最失去信用的是他的逃兵丑闻，他退休时的军衔比他实际军衔还低，从E9士官降到E8, 推测他是没有完成应该履行的职责。
穷人家的孩子只有参军，Walz的父亲有过参军拿GI Bill福利的经历，所以他也鼓励儿子效仿。儿子选了条轻松的路，成为国防警卫队成员，他在二十几年从来没有上过战场，但是可以此为资本竞选国会议员。
关于Tim Walz如何当逃兵的事情，JD Vance把它弄得全国讨论，原始起点是几位当年Tim Walz的战友公开指控他是叛徒。
至于明州国防警卫队说调令在Walz退休之后的时间顺序，那是没有用的。根据当时的战况，Walz很有可能被调往前线，与那个order alert没有关系。他觉得自己年限已到，以竞选众议员为由逃了。这个丑闻早在2018年他与Jeff Johnson竞选明州州长时就被爆出来了，哈里斯团队没有审核清楚，实属失职行为。
Walz是国防警卫队，不是美军正规部队，但是也可能被调往前线，这是与Vance所在的美国海军陆战队完全不同的。Walz在网上吹自己打过仗，但是他从来没有去过前线，他是这样吹牛的：“We can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war”（“我们可以确保那些我在战争中携带过的战争武器不会进入街头”）。
现在哈里斯竞选团队说Walz说错了话，JD在今天的CNN采访中直指Walz扯谎。这个已经不是争议的问题，完全是丑闻了。与此相比，Vance说的Childless Cat Ladies 只是小菜。
现在哈里斯团队想澄清但是无门，明州国防警卫队也出来圆场也没有用。因为上前线的alert order会随时有，关键是作为二十几年的国防警卫队员，他很明白可能随时上前线，但是他逃了。确实一点不假，退伍是自由，但是谎称自己拿生命出生入死上战场，并且以此为资本则是another matter 。
今天JD Vance在CNN采访中举证，内部士兵都知道分队即将被派往伊拉克。直接的后果是，Walz逃了去竞选众议员，但是他的手下士兵只有十几岁却战死在伊拉克。
JD Vance很有资格说这番话，因为他在相近的时间去了伊拉克。我最好的同事彼得，当年也是预备役的Commander, 他是MIT博士和华大MD。他得到通知去伊拉克后，我问他怕不怕，他说“That’s the thing I have to do”。去年在爱尔兰都柏林，他用手机向我解释他当年在伊拉克的战地医院所在地，还指出哪些地方如果去了，Snipers就会杀死他们。
JD面对不友好的CNN记者都是如此从容，川普能向JD学习点就好了，虽然我不同意美联储需要听总统的说法。面对关于川普骨刺的借口没有参加越战的问题，JD说他沒有参加越战是事实，但是川普沒有扯谎说他去了越南。JD真是太聪明了，几乎是克林顿般的辩论技巧，但是这俩家伙在耶鲁法学院差几十届啊。
今天的采访让我对JD Vance的印象更加深刻，据说他走了一圈的周日新闻访谈。现在可以分开看了，以前还有频道之争。JD说期待与对手的辩论，与Tim Walz现场的辩论将会避免场外干扰，胜负应该更容易判断。
大家可以看Tim Walz当年的战友如何在网上揭露他的逃兵事实的，中文是ChatGPT翻译官的功劳：
The Truth About Tim Walz
（真相揭露：蒂姆·沃尔兹 ）
Tim Walz has embellished and selectively omitted facts and circumstances of his military career for years.
（多年来，蒂姆·沃尔兹一直在夸大和选择性地忽略他军事生涯中的事实和情况）
We, retired Command Sergeants Major of the Minnesota National Guard, feel it is our duty and responsibility to bring forth the truth as we know it concerning his service record. So, we have put together a timeline of his service post 9/11. To the best of our knowledge, this information is completely true, having been verified by all those who served in positions with first hand knowledge of the facts and circumstances of his service and departure from the Minnesota National Guard. Many of the dates and time frames are from his official discharge document and the reduction order reducing him to Master Sergeant.
（我们，明尼苏达州国民警卫队的退役高级军士长，感到有责任和义务将我们所知的他的服役记录真相公之于众。因此，我们整理了一份9/11事件后他服役的时间线。据我们所知，这些信息完全真实，经过所有在他服役期间拥有第一手知识的相关人员的核实。许多日期和时间段来自他的正式退役文件和将他降职为军士长的命令）
On September 18th, 2001 Tim Walz reenlisted in the Minnesota Army National Guard for six years.
（2001年9月18日，蒂姆·沃尔兹在明尼苏达州陆军国民警卫队重新入伍，为期六年）
In early 2003 he was selected to attend the United States Army Sergeants Major Academy. The non-resident course consists of two years of correspondence coursework, followed by a two-week resident phase at Fort Bliss, Texas. When a Senior Non-Commissioned Officer accepts enrollment in the course, they accept three stipulations. First, they will serve for two years after graduation from the academy, or promotion to Sergeant Major or Command Sergeant Major, whichever is later. Second, if they fail the course they may be separated from the military. Third, they will complete the course or be reduced to Master Sergeant without board action. Senior Non-Commissioned Officers initial and sign a Statement of Agreement and Certification upon enrollment. The State Command Sergeant Major or Army National Guard Command Sergeant Major counsels the soldier and certifies that the senior Non-Commissioned Officer understands their responsibilities. These stipulations are put in place because the academy is a college level school, the military invests a lot of taxpayer money in the student. The military needs to ensure they will get the return on investment that the taxpayers deserve.
（2003年初，他被选中参加美国陆军军士长学院。非驻校课程包括两年的函授课程，之后是为期两周的驻校学习阶段，地点在德克萨斯州的布利斯堡。高级士官在接受课程报名时需要同意三项规定。首先，他们将在从学院毕业或晋升为军士长或指挥军士长（以较晚者为准）后，继续服役两年。其次，如果他们未能通过课程，可能会被军队解雇。第三，他们必须完成课程，否则将被降级为军士长，而无需通过委员会审议。高级士官在报名时须初步确认并签署一份协议和认证声明。州指挥军士长或陆军国民警卫队指挥军士长将对士官进行辅导，并确保高级士官理解其责任。这些规定之所以被制定，是因为学院是大学水平的学校，军队在学生身上投入了大量纳税人的钱。军队需要确保能够得到纳税人应得的回报）。
In late summer of 2003, First Sergeant Walz deployed with the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion in support of Operation Enduring Freedom to Italy. The mission was to augment United States Air Force Europe Security Forces doing base security for six months. In no way were the units or Soldiers of the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion replacing any units or military forces so they could deploy to Iraq or Afghanistan.
（2003年夏末，沃尔兹一级军士长随1-125野战炮兵营前往意大利，支持持久自由行动。任务是为期六个月的美国空军欧洲安全部队基地安保工作。1-125野战炮兵营的部队或士兵并未替代任何部队或军事力量，以便他们能够部署到伊拉克或阿富汗）。
After the unit's return to Minnesota in the spring of 2004, he was selected by high level Command Sergeants Major to serve in the position of the Command Sergeant Major of the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion.
On August 5th, 2004 he was photographed holding a sign at a protest outside a President Bush campaign rally in southern Minnesota.
（2004年春季，部队返回明尼苏达后，沃尔兹被高级指挥军士长选中，担任1-125野战炮兵营的指挥军士长一职。2004年8月5日，他被拍到在明尼苏达南部一场布什总统竞选集会的抗议活动中举着标语）
On September 17th, 2004 he was conditionally promoted to Command Sergeant Major. The conditions had been outlined to him when he was counseled and he signed the Statement of Agreement and Certification. If the conditions are not met, the promotion is null and void, like it never happened.
（2004年9月17日，他被有条件晋升为指挥军士长。在他接受辅导并签署协议和认证声明时，已向他说明了晋升条件。如果不满足条件，晋升将作废，就像从未发生过一样）
In early 2005, a warning order was issued to the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion, which included the position he was serving in, to prepare to be mobilized for active duty for a deployment to Iraq. Between the time the warning order was given and his "retirement", he told the Brigade Command Sergeant Major not to worry, that he would be going on the mission. It appears that was a lie.
（2005年初，1-125野战炮兵营（包括他所在的职位）接到了准备动员参加伊拉克部署的警告命令。在警告命令下达与他“退役”之间的时间段内，他告诉旅指挥军士长不用担心，说他会参加此次任务。然而，这似乎是一个谎言）
On May 16th, 2005 he quit, betraying his country, leaving the 1-125th Field
Artillery Battalion and its Soldiers hanging; without its senior NonCommissioned Officer, as the battalion prepared for war. His excuse to other leaders was that he needed to retire in order to run for congress.
（2005年5月16日，他退出了，背叛了他的国家，在1-125野战炮兵营和士兵们准备参战时，留下他们的部队缺少了最高级的士官。他向其他领导人借口说他需要退役以竞选国会议员）。
Which is false, according to a Department of Defense Directive, he could have run and requested permission from the Secretary of Defense before entering active duty; as many reservists have. If he had retired normally and respectfully, you would think he would have ensured his retirement documents were correctly filled out and signed, and that he would have ensured he was reduced to Master Sergeant for dropping out of the academy. Instead he slithered out the door and waited for the paperwork to catch up to him. His official retirement document states, SOLDIER NOT AVAILABLE FOR SIGNATURE.
（然而，根据国防部的指令，这个借口是虚假的，他本可以在服役前请求国防部长的许可参选，就像许多预备役军人一样。如果他以正常和尊重的方式退役，你会认为他会确保退役文件正确填写和签署，并确保他因未完成学院课程而被降级为军士长。然而，他却悄悄离开，等待文书工作赶上他。他的正式退役文件上写着：“士兵无法签字”）
On September 10th, 2005 conditionally promoted Command Sergeant Major Walz was reduced to Master Sergeant. It took a while for the system to catch up to him as it was uncharted territory, literally no one quits in the position he was in, or drops out of the academy. Except him.
（2005年9月10日，沃尔兹被有条件晋升为指挥军士长后被降级为军士长。由于这种情况前所未有，系统花了一段时间才处理，因为几乎没有人会在他的位置上辞职或从学院退学，除了他）
In November of 2005, while the battalion trained for war at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, it received an offer from retired Master Sergeant Walz. He offered to fund raise for the battalion's bus trip home over Christmas that year. The same Soldiers he had abandoned just months before, trying to buy their votes.
（2005年11月，当营队在密西西比州谢尔比营地训练备战时，他们收到了退役军士长沃尔兹的提议。他提出为营队当年圣诞节回家乘坐巴士的旅费进行募款。这正是他几个月前抛弃的那些士兵，现在他试图用金钱来赢得他们的支持）
The 1-125 Field Artillery Battalion was deployed for 22 ½ months in 2006 -2007. During this time, they were restricted by Army regulations and could not speak out against a candidate for office. In November 2006 he was elected to the House of Representatives. He claims to be the highest-ranking enlisted service member ever to serve in congress. Even though he was conditionally promoted to Command Sergeant Major less than eight months, quit before his obligations were met, and was reduced to Master Sergeant for retirement. 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.
（1-125野战炮兵营于2006至2007年间部署了22个半月。在此期间，他们受到陆军规定的限制，无法公开反对竞选公职的候选人。2006年11月，沃尔兹当选为众议院议员。他声称自己是历史上担任国会议员的最高级别的士兵。尽管他在被有条件晋升为指挥军士长不到八个月后辞职，未完成他的职责，并因退役被降级为军士长。是的，他曾在那个军衔服役，但他从未获得过那个军衔的资格，并且将按比该军衔低一级的军衔享受退休福利。你可以自行判断）
On November 1st, 2006, Tom Hagen, Iraq War Veteran, wrote a letter to the editor of the Winona Daily News. Here are a couple of sentences from the letter: But even more disturbing is the fact that Walz quickly retired after learning that his unit -southern Minnesota's 1-125 FA Battalion - would be sent to Iraq. For Tim Walz to abandon his fellow soldiers and quit when they needed experienced leadership most is disheartening. It dishonors those brave American men and women who did answer their nation's call and who continue to serve, fight and unfortunately die in harm's way for us.
（2006年11月1日，伊拉克战争老兵汤姆·哈根（Tom Hagen）给《维诺纳每日新闻》编辑写了一封信。信中有这样几句话：“但更令人不安的是，沃尔兹在得知他的部队——明尼苏达南部的1-125野战炮兵营——将被派往伊拉克后，迅速退役。蒂姆·沃尔兹在他的战友最需要有经验的领导时，抛弃了他们并辞职，这令人沮丧。这对那些响应国家号召并继续为我们服务、战斗，并不幸在危险中牺牲的勇敢的美国男女是一种不敬。”）
Here is part of Tim Walz's response: After completing 20 years of service in 2001, I re-enlisted to serve our country for an additional four years following Sept. 11 and retired the year before my battalion was deployed to Iraq in order to run for Congress.
（以下是蒂姆·沃尔兹的部分回应：“在2001年完成20年的服役后，我在9/11事件后重新入伍，继续为国家服务了额外的四年，并在我的营队被派往伊拉克的前一年退役，以竞选国会议员。”）
According to his official Report of Separation and Record of Service, he reenlisted for six years on September 18th, 2001. However, in his response he says that he re-enlisted for four years, conveniently retiring a year before his battalion was deployed to Iraq. Even if he had re-enlisted for four years following Sept. 11, his retirement date would have been September 18th, 2005. Why then did he "retire" on May 16*, 2005, before his supposed four-year enlistment was up? And he makes it sound like he "retired" a year before his battalion deployed to Iraq; when in reality he knew when he “retired" that the battalion would be deployed to Iraq.
（根据他的官方退役报告和服役记录，他于2001年9月18日重新入伍，期限为六年。然而，在他的回应中，他说他重新入伍了四年，并巧妙地在他的营队被派往伊拉克的前一年退役。即使他确实在9/11事件后重新入伍四年，他的退役日期应该是2005年9月18日。那么为什么他在2005年5月16日、在他所谓的四年服役期结束之前“退役”了？他还让人误以为他在他的营队部署到伊拉克的前一年“退役”；而实际上他在“退役”时知道营队将被派往伊拉克）
The bottom line in all of this is gut wrenching and sad to explain. When the nation called, he quit. He failed to complete the United States Army Sergeants Major Academy. He failed to serve for two years following completion of the academy, which he dropped out of. He failed to serve two years after the conditional promotion to Command Sergeant Major. He failed to fulfill the full six years of the enlistment he signed on September 1, 2001. He failed his country. He failed his state. He failed the Minnesota Army National Guard, the 1-125th Field Artillery Battalion, and his fellow Soldiers. And he failed to lead by example. On top of that he failed to uphold the seven Army Values: Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless-Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage.
Traitorous, fraudulent, and shameful.
（这一切的真相令人心碎且难以解释。当国家呼唤时，他放弃了。他未能完成美国陆军军士长学院的课程。他未能在完成学院后服役两年，因为他中途退学。他未能在有条件晋升为指挥军士长后服役两年。他未能完成2001年9月1日签署的六年服役期。他辜负了国家。他辜负了州。他辜负了明尼苏达陆军国民警卫队、1-125野战炮兵营和他的战友。他未能以身作则。此外，他未能遵守陆军的七大价值观：忠诚、责任、尊重、无私服务、荣誉、正直和个人勇气。
背叛、欺诈、可耻）
