From Breitbart: Democrat vice-presidential candidate and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) was caught inflating his background and making it seem like Harvard University was behind a teaching program in China in which he participated, according to a recent report.
A report from the Washington Free Beacon found that Walz had lied about being “named the Outstanding Young Nebraskan by the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce,” and seemingly implying that Harvard University was behind a teaching program, and had picked Walz for “an opportunity” to teach in China through a university program. The program, WorldTeach, was founded in 1986 by several graduates from Harvard University, according to the organization’s LinkedIn page.
Both lies appear in his biography in an archived version of his campaign website in 2006 as he was running for Congress.
This comes after Walz previously falsely claimed that his children were conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF), claimed that he had carried weapons of war “in war,” and that he had retired as a “command sergeant major” when he had actually retired as a Master Sergeant.
The Free Beacon shared the following bombshell details:
Walz’s 2006 boast about being named “Outstanding Young Nebraskan” can still be found in an archived version of his campaign website.
That November, the president of the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce, Barry Kennedy, wrote Walz to object. “It has come to my attention that as part of your campaign for U.S. Congress, you have posted your biography on your website that claims you received an award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce for your service to the business community,” he stated plainly. “We researched this matter and can confirm that you have not been the recipient of any award from the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.”
Some of the stuff Tim Walz has lied about is pretty nuts.

When Tim Walz launched his ‘06 campaign, he boasted in his biography that he’d been named “Outstanding Young Nebraskan by the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.” That wasn’t true and the then president of the Nebraska chamber sent him a letter – https://t.co/TCX5ENzNgk
