Earlier, we shared with you Tim Walz’s pathetic excuse for decades of stolen valor. Here it is, again, in case you missed it:

CNN REPORTER: You said you carried weapons in war, but you never deployed to war.

TIM WALZ: I'm proud of my service and my record. I speak candidly. I wear my emotions on my sleeve.

REPORTER: The idea you were in war. Did you misspeak?

WALZ: My grammar's not always correct. pic.twitter.com/QPssoHSIov

We will go as far as to say no one believed that excuse—or that the number of people who believe it is so low as to be indistinguishable from zero. Even if you run into people who say they believe it, we don’t believe that they actually believe that. They are simply hoping you are stupid enough to believe it.

No. Walz lied. And that claim that he just doesn’t understand grammar runs straight into the teeth of just one fact. We will let Chinese defector Xi Van Fleet explain it to the class:

Walz said his grammar is not always right. And yet he went to China to teach Chinese students English😂

— Xi Van Fleet (@XVanFleet) August 30, 2024

And in case you are wondering, she is absolutely right, as verified by state media:

Tim Walz made an impression in China, students and teachers say - NPR https://t.co/hxnaIkuNyE

— Michael F Ozaki MD (@brontyman) August 20, 2024

That NPR article states the following:

In 1989, a 15-year-old Dai met Walz, who became her first foreign English teacher at Foshan No. 1 Middle School in southern China. During that school year, Walz taught English and U.S. history to around 300 students, she says.

So much for that “gawsh, I’m just a folksy, regular guy who don’t don’t talk no good” routine. He not only knew proper grammar, he was considered proficient enough to teach others.

Incidentally, on some level it doesn’t matter who said it. Facts are facts, no matter who says it. But we have followed Xi Van Fleet for a while and she is one of this author’s favorite follows, a person who escaped oppression who is trying to warn Americans how it can happen here. Here she is talking to Tucker Carlson:

It’s a long video and its off topic to this post, but we still recommend that you listen to the whole thing.

Back to Walz, Ms. Fleet (Van Fleet?) got a lot of positive reactions:

Yup.
Screenshot this post, and save it.
This is what happens when you live in truth. You see obvious lies clearly. God bless @XVanFleet .

English teacher. For years. Doesn’t do grammar right?
And nobody can tell?

Nah. He is a liar. https://t.co/iNp2bt2Nfv

What does that say about the standard of English in China? https://t.co/dhu5kESNs2

We think it says he is full of it when he says he just misspoke.

Indeed, it's the difference between "let's eat, Grandma," and "let's eat Grandma." So proper grammar can save lives.

And he is old enough to have been taught I before E except after C 🤣

We all know what guys do on an English teaching visa. 😂😂😂

I can’t stand these type of guys. Always telling lies to cover their lies.

And had many opportunities to clean it up…but did not.

— R Rad (@radvan70) August 30, 2024

Seriously, why can’t these stolen valor types ever just say “I’m sorry”? “I admit I lied about my record at times, and that is shameful and I am sorry.” This is just bad scandal management.

You can’t make this stuff up!

Finally:

Those Chinese students should demand a refund

— Pat O'Keefe (@patokeefe1234) August 30, 2024

That’s funny, but the truth is that this is just the proof that he was lying. Of course, we didn’t really need very much evidence, but there is the proverbial smoking gun.

Really, overall, this interview was not the win the Democrats were hoping for.
