Republican vice-presidential candidate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), fact-checked CNN’s Dana Bash, telling her that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) “knew he was going to Iraq.”
During an interview with Bash on Sunday, Vance clarified that Walz “lied” when he had said he did not know his unit would be deployed to Iraq at the time he had “decided to retire.”

Bash interjected to note that Walz had retired.

That is another untruth, as even his senior military officer said. So again, I’m not criticizing the service, I’m criticizing the dishonesty.”
Walz has faced criticism over reports that have shown he retired from the military before his unit was deployed to Iraq; despite having knowledge of the possibility his unit could be deployed to Iraq…
