A former member of the National Guard unit in which Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz once served slammed Walz’s actions in leaving the unit.
Retired Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas Behrends sounded off in 2022 as Walz, now the Democratic Party’s vice presidential candidate, was in the middle of his successful campaign to be re-elected governor of Minnesota.
“He abandoned us,” Behrends said in an interview with Alpha News posted to YouTube.
“I mean, what the hell kind of a leader does that,” Behrends said.
