Tim Walz and the Iraq War: Why avoiding unjust wars is justified

1

Democratic VP nominee Tim Walz is getting trounced by the Trump camp and right-wing media for taking an early retirement from the National Guard and refusing to deploy to the Iraq War.

But these criticisms ignore the fact that Trump himself was a draft dodger, that the Iraq War was horribly unjust and he would have been right to get out of it, and the changing American perception on war and the draft in general.

But while Walz is being accused of stolen valor, his stance on free speech ironically MAJORLY misses a massive SCOTUS case on the same issue - in which the courts emphatically agreed that misinformation IS free speech.

Plus, the commies in the Biden Administration finally get an antitrust win against Google in a ruling that will likely have collassel consequences on our economy, our market, consumers, and our legal apparatus.
