<p>The Washington Post gave Democrat Gov. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/tim-walz" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tim Walz</a> (MN) &#8220;four Pinocchios&#8221; in a Thursday fact-check for lying about Republican Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/jd-vance" target="_blank" rel="noopener">JD Vance</a> (OH) during a recent campaign event.</p>
<p>Walz, who&#8217;s been slated to be Kamala Harris&#8217; VP pick, claimed Vance, Donald Trump&#8217;s VP pick, is not pro-worker and has &#8220;never cast a vote on a pro-worker bill in his life.&#8221;</p>
<p>“I’ll tell you, [Trump&#8217;s] running mate, I don’t know if that was a value-add to this campaign or not, but he’s one of four senators, four, that has never cast a vote on a pro-worker bill in his life. Not once,&#8221; Walz said Tuesday to a union audience. &#8220;A stopped clock’s right twice a day, this guy can’t get it right once, not once, for workers.”</p>
<p>“The only thing those two guys know about working people is how to work to take advantage of them,&#8221; the governor added.</p>

<p>The Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/08/15/walzs-false-claim-that-vance-never-voted-any-pro-worker-bills/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> they were &#8220;struck&#8221; by such false language from Walz and suggested he borrowed the talking point directly from a far-Left interest group. The Democrat earned four Pinocchios for the remarks &#8212; the most a false rating can receive.</p>
<p>&#8220;We were struck that Walz said that Vance was one of four senators who had never cast a vote for a pro-worker bill,&#8221; the fact-check said. &#8220;That was rather specific and sounded as if he was borrowing from a legislative scorecard compiled by an organization or interest group.&#8221;</p>
<p>Walz&#8217;s &#8220;source&#8221; for the attack &#8220;was a union report card that covered only two bills in one year,&#8221; the Post continued. &#8220;Vance has voted for at least two bills that helped workers and had union support.&#8221;</p>
<p>Walz&#8217;s claim that Vance knows nothing about working people was also untrue, the fact-check said, noting it was literally the &#8220;subject of his book,&#8221; &#8220;Hillbilly Elegy.&#8221;</p>

<p>Since becoming a senator, Vance has pushed pro-worker and pro-family legislation. Notably, just last month, the Republican was praised by Teamsters President Sean O&#8217;Brien for caring about working people and supporting pro-worker legislation.</p>

<p>This was not Walz&#8217;s first fib against Vance. Walz suggested a false, vulgar smear about Vance and a &#8220;couch&#8221; was true during his first rally with Vice President Kamala Harris. The comment was so false and egregious that CNN&#8217;s Jake Tapper brought it up on his show, calling it a &#8220;gross smear.&#8221;</p>
