“It occurred to me, the closest Tim Walz has ever come to combat, even though he says he carried a weapon of war, the closest Tim Walz has ever come to combat is when he let rioters burn Minneapolis to the ground a few years ago,” Vance said at a campaign event in Philadelphia, referencing the governor’s handling of the 2020 riots following the death of local resident George Floyd in police custody.

Walz, 60, retired from the Minnesota National Guard in 2005 – months before his unit was deployed to Iraq – and he has never served on a battlefield despite claiming in past remarks to have done so.
.
“I swear, before, before the end of the campaign, Tim Walz is going to be talking about how he was carrying an M-16 through the jungles of Vietnam,” the Ohio senator said in another zinger Monday directed at Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate.
“Everything that comes out of his mouth about his military service is at least 25% a lie,” Vance argued

n one recently resurfaced clip of Walz from 2018, he argued for more stringent gun control based on his experiences in “war.”
“We can research the impacts of gun violence. We can make sure those weapons of war, that I carried in war, are only carried in war,” he said.
The Harris campaign acknowledged earlier this month that the governor “misspoke” about his past military service.
.
Vance, speaking to small group of about 250 supporters and media members at DiSorb Systems, Inc. – a medical waste management company – in North Philadelphia, made the case that former President Donald Trump is better positioned than Harris to help American businesses.
“Let’s take stock of the Trump record, not just the vision, because Donald Trump isn’t just going out there making promises about what he wants to do,” the “Hillbilly Elegy” author said. “My friends, he already did it.”

Vance vowed that Trump is “going to unleash Pennsylvania’s energy workers.”
“We are going to drill baby drill,” he said. “We’re going to stop buying energy from tin-pot dictators all over the world who hate this country. We’re going to start buying it from our own land, from our own people, from our own workers.”
“When we do that, my friends, we’re going to bring down energy costs, not just for American families and American consumers – we’re going to bring it down for American manufacturers and American businesses like DiSorb,” Vance argued.
Trump, 78, trails Harris, 59, in Pennsylvania by 1.4 percentage points, according to the latest FiveThirtyEight average of polls.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
