WASHINGTON (AP) — Campaigning for a northwestern Ohio congressional seat, Republican J.R. Majewski presents himself as an Air Force combat veteran who deployed to Afghanistan after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, once describing “tough” conditions including a lack of running water that forced him to go more than 40 days without a shower.

Military documents obtained by The Associated Press through a public records request tell a different story.

They indicate Majewski never deployed to Afghanistan but instead completed a six-month stint helping to load planes at an air base in Qatar, a longtime U.S. ally that is a safe distance from the fighting.
Majewski’s account of his time in the military is just one aspect of his biography that is suspect. His post-military career has been defined by exaggerations, conspiracy theories, talk of violent action against the U.S. government and occasional financial duress.

Real crop of winners the GOP has dredged up this time around.

Not only does Trump hire the best, it might pain you he also endorses the best.

Indeed. They seem to have outdone themselves for these midterms.

Misrepresent? A more subtle word for lying.

Indeed. They seem to have outdone themselves for these midterms.

They are still going to lose.

Meanwhile, in-laws and family who have served in US wars since Vietnam and are Democrats are called socialists, pedophiles, communists and that they hate fox and country by the same people who “misrepresent” their service….

Quatar was heavan compared to Islamabad.

This man is a fool, it's very easy to find out the facts in these situations.

He will probably be elected, this is Ohio where Gym Jordan the peodo enabler serves from.

Won't make any difference to Republican voters.

"What am I supposed to do, let the Democrat win?"

 

[NuffSaid]

This guy should double down, call it fake news, claim the FB planted evidence in his house. Claim he he fought in Afghanistan by just thinking about it.

Ohio Republican stays in campaign amid scrutiny of service

Republican J.R. Majewski insisted Friday that he would stay in the race for a competitive northwest Ohio congressional seat after The Associated Press reported earlier this week that he misrepresented key elements of his Air Force service.

I can see why Trump endorsed him. This guy lies his ass off just like his Orange Jesus.

I bet he was a big supporter of the ‘Stolen Valor’ bill, too.

 

[Threegoofs]

Double top secret... wink, wink...

So…

Either he’s lying, or he just divulged classified information.

Or maybe he just can’t prove it, because the DOJ seized the evidence from Mar a lago!!!

That’s the lie I’d go with if I were him.

The rubes would eat it up.

If that information is classified then he just broke a law when he said he served there right?

Let me embrace the military while I dishonor the people that served. Seems like a perfect R candidate to me. He's just emulating those that have already been elected.

The Ohio GOP have pulled all money and support from this fool because he was found out. Unless it is a very gerrymandered district, which is possibly because the GOP wont support fair redistricting, he is likely to lose.

His DD214 is not classified, it will have his personal info redacted. It will indicate medals and overseas tours, mine does

The man misrepresented his military service, not the first to do so.

Oh, trust me, I don't believe him for a second. I was just pointing out that if you say "x happened, but you won't find proof because it's classified info" then you are either lying or you have (I suppose) broken a law by giving out classified info to the public.
