Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), one of the several Democratic members of the Senate Armed Services Committee who baselessly questioned Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth‘s qualifications to run the Pentagon, has long been accused of engaging in stolen valor. The Connecticut Democrat declared at Tuesday’s hearing that Hegseth, tapped by President-elect Donald J. Trump to lead the Department of Defense, is maybe qualified to serve “as the spokesperson for the Pentagon” but not as its chief.
The line of attack, while deployed by multiple Democratic Senators on the panel, was unusual coming from Blumenthal, given the controversies surrounding his own military record. In 2010, while serving as Connecticut’s Attorney General, Blumenthal was exposed for falsely claiming he served in the Vietnam War during his time in the Marine Reserves. However, the Connecticut Demcorat’s military records show no such service. In fact, Blumenthal was safely stationed in Washington, D.C.—nearly 9,000 miles from the conflict.
Stolen Valor Richard Blumenthal — who lied about serving in Vietnam — tells Pete Hegseth he's not qualified to be defense secretary based on his experience.
He then talks about the need to interview his ex-girlfriends.

BLUMENTHAL’S STOLEN VALOR.
“We have learned something important since the days that I served in Vietnam, and you exemplify it,” Blumenthal said during an event in 2008. “Whatever we think about the war, whatever we call it—Afghanistan or Iraq—we owe our military men and women unconditional support.”
The comments were part of a larger narrative used by Blumenthal as he geared up for a run for the U.S. Senate to politicize the deeply unpopular Iraq and Afghanistan wars, while deceiving voters regarding his own military service. Blumenthal later claimed he misspoke.
Despite the attempt to wave off the allegations, it was revealed in 2010 that Blumenthal had secured at least five deferments from deployment to Vietnam so that he could complete his academic studies at Harvard University and undertake a graduate program in the United Kingdom. Nearly 60,000 U.S. servicemembers died in the conflict in Southeast Asia. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
