Really? I have to start the thread about Walz’s DUI?

You guys are slacking.

Anyway, let he who didn’t get a DUI in the early 90s cast the first stone.

It’s refreshing to see a candidate mugshot that is from 30 years ago rather than last year.

DUI was ok during the 80s.

During the 90s, fun ended and woke took over.

Never had one. got hauled in off the Sunset Strip and breathalyzed. They needed .1 to DUI, .08 for reckless op and I blew .07. They were pissed. Only time in my life I was ever handcuffed.

He lied about that too...

When Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz first ran for Congress in 2006, his campaign repeatedly made false statements about the details of his 1995 arrest for drunk and reckless driving.

According to court and police records connected to the incident, Walz admitted in court that he had been drinking when he was pulled over for driving 96 mph in a 55 mph zone in Nebraska. Walz was then transported by a state trooper to a local hospital for a blood test, showing he had a blood alcohol level of .128, well above the state’s legal limit of 0.1 at the time.

But in 2006, his campaign repeatedly told the press that he had not been drinking that night, claiming that his failed field sobriety test was due to a misunderstanding related to hearing loss from his time in the National Guard. The campaign also claimed that Walz was allowed to drive himself to jail that night.

None of that was true.
