Minnesota Governor Tim Walz might have thought he could get away with inflating his military record, but his former commanding officer, John Kolb, has something to say about that. And boy, did he say it loud and clear! Kolb, who served as the battalion commander of Walz’s Army National Guard unit, didn’t mince words when he exposed the truth about Walz’s so-called “service.” Now, watching CNN – or the “Communist News Network,” as we like to call it – try to spin this mess was like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
The Ugly Truth Behind Walz’s Military Record
Walz has been parading around claiming he’s a “retired Command Sergeant Major,” a title that carries weight and respect in military circles. But here’s the catch – it’s not true. Walz never completed the requirements needed to earn that title. Sure, he served in the role for a brief time, but his rank was later rescinded because he didn’t finish the necessary paperwork or complete the required assignments. That’s right, folks – the guy didn’t do his homework!
John Kolb, who knows a thing or two about what it takes to be a leader in the military, wasn’t about to let this slide. In a fiery post on Facebook, Kolb ripped into Walz, saying that he “did not successfully complete any assignment as a sergeant major” and even accused him of breaking his enlistment contract. Kolb didn’t hold back, calling Walz out for sitting in the Command Sergeant Major chair without ever really earning the rank.
Walz’s Cowardly Retreat
Let’s not forget the timing of Walz’s retirement. The Minnesota governor decided to hang up his uniform in 2005, just months before his unit was deployed to Iraq. Convenient, right? Kolb suggested that Walz bailed out to avoid the heavy responsibilities of deployment. Instead of stepping up when it mattered most, Walz chose the easy way out, leaving the real heroes to face the dangers overseas.
But it gets worse. Walz didn’t just retire early – he went around implying he had seen combat. In one video clip, he’s seen saying he carried weapons “in war.” Now, if that doesn’t make your blood boil, I don’t know what will. Former President Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance, didn’t hesitate to call this out as “stolen valor garbage.” And let’s be real, that’s exactly what it is.
CNN’s Awkward Defense
Now, let’s talk about how CNN handled this bombshell. They tried – oh, they tried – to sweep this under the rug. But no matter how hard they tried to twist the story, the facts kept slapping them in the face. Watching their anchors squirm as they attempted to downplay Kolb’s revelations was almost painful. They couldn’t deny that Walz’s campaign had to quietly change his biography from “retired Command Sergeant Major” to “served as a command sergeant major.” That’s a big difference, and you can bet they didn’t want to admit it.
CNN, always quick to defend their left-wing darlings, seemed to struggle with how to protect Walz without looking completely ridiculous. The truth is, no amount of media spin can cover up what’s clear as day – Tim Walz inflated his military credentials to advance his political career, and now it’s all crashing down around him.
Final Thoughts
Tim Walz’s story is a disgrace to the men and women who actually earned their military titles through hard work, dedication, and, yes, even sacrifice. The fact that he has used these inflated credentials to boost his political career is nothing short of shameful. And watching CNN try to cover for him only makes it more obvious who they’re really working for.
But the truth has a funny way of coming out, and thanks to John Kolb and others who refuse to let stolen valor slide, we all know exactly what kind of man Tim Walz really is.

We need to hold our leaders accountable, especially when they disrespect the very titles they claim to honor.
