Why would the Department of Homeland Security be so concerned about Tim Walz’s China ties that his name repeatedly comes up in internal communications and classified documents?
According to Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), chairman of the US House Committee on Oversight and Accountability, whistleblowers have revealed “serious concerns among DHS personnel regarding a longstanding connection between the Chinese Communist Party and Minnesota Governor Timothy James Walz.”
Those concerns could not be more obvious to me, a China hand of long-standing: Tim Walz has long had a special relationship with the CCP.
It’s all there in his record: The initial approach, the flattery, the joint venture, the academic appointment, the paid trips and lectures. The whole process is called “elite capture.”
And it’s designed to bring foreigners of influence into China’s powerful orbit.
However, Walz himself is easy to ignore, and everyone, except maybe law enforcement, should give it a try.
