Chris Kyle, a former Navy SEAL sniper, told Bill O’Reilly that several years ago, he punched out former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura after Ventura badmouthed the Iraq war, and the soldiers fighting in it. Ventura now denying Kyle’s claims, writing on Facebook:

“If this happened six years ago, someone would have known of it before now … I have always opposed the war in Iraq but I have never spoken or wished any ill towards the soldiers … Someone is out to destroy my credibility.”
