2024-08-16 22:06:15 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

Walz served for seven months as command sergeant major. When he retired, he left without completing required training. As a result, his official retirement rank is a step lower. The demotion occurred after he left, and it was administrative, not punitive. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/10/us/tim-walz-military-career.html

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1824316591028277725

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
