    Why would anyone feel the need to do this?

    Fact check: Walz makes false claims about Vance, Trump and Project 2025.

    Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential candidate, has made at least three false claims over the last two weeks about the Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump.

    Two of Walz’s false claims are related to Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation think tank’s detailed right-wing blueprint for the next Republican administration. Project 2025 has been the subject of multiple false or misleading claims from Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign this summer.

    Odd. Dude starts with clean slate and sullies it. It wasn't necessary.

    But, interestingly, it would be entertaining to hear 45/Vance arguing about what is and isn't in Project 2025 - after saying they did not know about it.

    The heritage foundation has their hooks sunk so deep into trump and his MAGA band that it is ridicules for any of them to claim ignorance of 2025.

    Agreed. I'd much rather prefer to vote for the best candidate than vote against a person, in an attempt to deny them public office.
