It is the 13th largest county in the state. The interviews present a satisfying moral clarity: Shipley, a broad, deep-voiced man with lush hair, plays the role of the good soldier, confidently asserting his dominance over the dissembling faker.

We are back with Illinois Republican gubernatorial candidate Jesse Sullivan. That night, a representative from Military Phonies e-mailed Amber, saying that it usually took the group several weeks to put together a complete record, and pointing her to a list of Silver Star recipients compiled by a military historian named Doug Sterner.

This ad will play well in Peoria County and south. The only vaccine mandate still in effect anywhere that was initiated by the government is the mandate for healthcare workers and that mandate was upheld by the Supreme Court. So far, I am not impressed one bit. In many instances, though, the motivations are muddier. People lie about their service in YouTube clips, Facebook posts, and text messages; researchers have exposed a man who claimed on a dating site to have been on the SEAL team that took out Osama bin Laden, and another who posted photographs of himself wearing a Green Beret uniform on his wedding day.

The accused mumbles nonsensical answers before slinking off, exposed and humiliated. was an overdiagnosed condition cooked up by antiwar leftists; that accusations of war crimes in Vietnam were overstatedbut what captured readers attention was his exposure of military fakers. I briefly embedded with some in Iraq. And, for sure, this military combat claim needs to be cleared up right away. The Irvin lies/cant be trusted line could work, if he had about $10-$15 million to burn it home, although that would likely just benefit Bailey. - Brr Cold - Thursday, Jan 27, 22 @ 3:26 pm: LOL. Sorry, comments for this post are now closed. Now, with just days to go, hes trying anything he can to grab voters attention in a last-minute hail mary. I proudly served our nation in uniform doing counterinsurgency work in Helmand Afghanistan with the US Department of Defense, Sullivan declared in his campaign announcement speech near Petersburg.
